Privacy Policy

What information do we collect about you?

Frontier Authentication

This application would not function without utilising the API provided as part of the Frontier User Portal.

When Frontier Authentication is performed this application inevitably receives:

  • Frontier ID - your unique ID for this system.
  • Name - The real name specified in your account.
  • Email - The email address associated with your account.
  • Platform - Whether this is a Frontier account, XBox, Playstation or Steam. The 'Authorized Applications' lists all the Clients (applications) you've authorised to request data on your behalf. This might include sites like Inara.Cz.

The application does not process, transmit elsewhere, or store any of this information. For clarity, it also does not pass any of the information outlined above to any plugins.

Elite Commander details

While this app is running it collects the following information about you:

  • Your in-game “Cmdr” name.
  • Your in-game location.
  • Your in-game ship(s), ship loadout and inventory.
  • Various actions that you perform in the game.

Operating System & IP Address

As the updates file was moved onto GitHub in late June 2020 we no longer collect the following information about you:

  • Your Operating System.
  • Your Internet Protocol (“IP”) Address.

but GitHub will be receiving this information instead.


Third-Party Sites

At your choice this app transmits some of your Commander details to third-party services as follows:

EDDN

If you have active either of the following options on the 'EDDN' tab of the application's settings:

  • Send station data to the Elite Dangerous Data Network (on by default)
  • Send system and scan data to the Elite Dangerous Data Network (on by default)

then your Cmdr name and your in-game location are transmitted to the Elite Dangerous Data Network (“EDDN”). Your Cmdr name is not visible to other users of the EDDN service.

EDSM

If you have active the option:

  • 'Send flight log and Cmdr status to EDSM' (on by default)

on the 'EDSM' settings tab, and filled in valid 'Commander Name' and 'API Key' values then this application transmits details about your Commander to the Elite Dangerous Star Map (“EDSM”) website.

You can control how much of this information is visible to other people here.

Inara

If you have active the option:

  • 'Send flight log and Cmdr status to EDSM' (on by default)

on the 'Inara' settings tab, and filled in a valid 'API Key' value then this application transmits details about your Commander to the Inara website.

You can control how much of this information is visible to other people here.

Plugins

If you have installed any plugins this app makes your Commander details available to those plugins.
