# Your Data & Privacy

What the server records about your account, and why.

Androlia keeps moderation logs. You're entitled to know what they contain, so here it is, plainly.

## What is recorded

| Data                          | Why                                                                   |
| ----------------------------- | --------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| **Your IP addresses**         | To detect ban evasion and alternate accounts                          |
| **Your connections**          | Date, time and which server you joined                                |
| **Your chat messages**        | To investigate reports of harassment, scams and rule-breaking         |
| **Your UUID and username**    | To tie the above to your account                                      |
| **First and last join dates** | Account history                                                       |
| **Your bank transactions**    | Deposits, withdrawals and interest, so money disputes can be resolved |

## Who can see it

Only the **moderation team**, and only through in-game staff commands. This is stated in the [Minecraft Server Rules](/androlia/rules/minecraft-server-rules.md):

> Each player's IP address that connects to the server will be stored and linked to their account. **Under no circumstances will this information be disclosed.**

Other players can never look up your IP, your alt accounts or your message history.

***

## Multiple accounts

The number of distinct IP addresses tied to one account is tracked. This is how **ban evasion** is caught — creating a new account to escape a sanction links the two, and results in further sanctions.

{% hint style="warning" %}
**VPNs and proxies are prohibited** on Androlia. Most known VPNs are blocked outright. Beyond the rule itself, connecting through one makes your account look like it's evading a ban, which is not a situation you want to be in.
{% endhint %}

## Playing normally

If you follow the [rules](/androlia/rules/minecraft-server-rules.md), none of this ever affects you. The logs exist so that when someone scams you, harasses you, or comes back on an alt after being banned, the staff can actually prove it.
