1. INFORMATION WE COLLECT

We gather limited personal and operational data necessary to facilitate authentication and record competitive scores on the Platform:

• Account Credentials: Email addresses, usernames, and cryptographic password hashes.
• Submission Records: Input flags, timestamps, and target challenge parameters.
• Access & Audit Logs: IP addresses, access timestamps, and details of profile parameter modifications (stored in the `AuditLog` table).

• Calculating score boards, timestamps, and ranking timelines.
