Privacy &
Cookies.

UPKG Release operates with a strict "Zero-Ads" policy. We prioritize data sovereignty, transparent self-hosted analytics, and absolute user privacy.

01 DATA PROTECTION & PHILOSOPHY

This Privacy Notice for UPKG Release (Founded and Managed by Tauseef Ansari) describes how and why we access, collect, store, use, and share your personal information when you use our services.

Our ecosystem primarily functions as a hub for digital creators, eSports athletes, music distribution, and enterprise brand strategy. Because we deal with high-profile talent and brands, our security and privacy standards are built to enterprise-grade specifications.

1. Zero-Ads & Data Sovereignty

Our Strict Promise: We do NOT sell, trade, or share your personal information with outside marketing agencies, data brokers, or third-party companies. This website is 100% Ad-Free. We do not use your data for targeted advertising. Your data belongs to you.

2. Our 100% Self-Hosted Analytics Engine

Unlike most websites that feed your browsing data to third-party corporations (like Google Analytics or Meta Pixel), UPKG Release has built a proprietary, 100% Self-Hosted Analytics Engine.

  • Zero External Requests: No data ever leaves our Oracle-powered servers.
  • Cryptographic IP Hashing: We do not store your raw IP address. Your IP is combined with a daily rotating cryptographic "salt" to create an anonymous hash. This ensures you cannot be personally identified from our traffic logs.
  • What We Measure: If you consent, we track aggregate metrics such as page load speed, scroll depth, device type, and general region to optimize our server performance and UI/UX.

3. Cookie Usage & PWA Caching

We use cookies and local storage mechanisms strictly to improve website performance and remember your privacy preferences.

  • The 7-Day Consent Rule: Your cookie preferences (Accept/Reject) are stored in a cookie named upkg_consent. This cookie is strictly programmed to self-destruct after exactly 7 days. After 7 days, you will be prompted to renew your preferences.
  • Client-Side Caching (Service Workers): To provide lightning-fast, offline-capable browsing, we use a Service Worker (upkg-sw.js) to cache website assets directly on your device. Our server administrators hold a "Remote Kill-Switch" to instantly purge this cache globally when critical updates are made.

4. Age Requirements (15+ Policy)

Our talent management, eSports, and creator services are intended for individuals aged 15 years and above.

  • Parental Consent: If you are between the ages of 15 and 18, you must have explicit permission from a parent or legal guardian to use our application forms or submit personal data.
  • Under 15: We do not knowingly collect personal data from children under 15. If our automated systems or human moderators discover such data, it is purged immediately.

5. Enterprise Security Measures

To protect the data submitted through our Join and Feedback portals, we employ military-grade security layers:

  • Active SQLi Firewall: Real-time blocking of malicious payloads.
  • Rate Limiting: Strict 4-day cooldowns on application submissions to prevent spam.
  • Biometric Passkeys: Our internal dashboards are secured using WebAuthn (FaceID/Fingerprint) and TOTP 2FA.

6. Your Rights (The 1-Week Guarantee)

Right to Erasure (The "Right to be Forgotten"):

You have absolute control over your data. If you have submitted an application, feedback, or inquiry and wish to have your information permanently removed from our databases, simply contact our legal desk.

TIMELINE: We guarantee that your data will be permanently and irreversibly purged from our active servers within one (1) week of receiving your verified request.
