PRIVACY NOTICE
KCSN is designed to collect only the information needed to operate the public survivor network and protect it from obvious abuse.
WHAT KCSN RECEIVES
- Project Zomboid survivor name and generated survivor ID.
- Survival time, zombie kills, health, infection/alive/deceased status, ruleset information, and report timestamps.
- Workshop mod version and KCSN Java version.
- A randomly generated KCSN Java installation credential used to authenticate reports.
WHAT KCSN JAVA READS
The integrated KCSN Java client reads the survivor statistics needed for KCSN from the running Project Zomboid game through the ZombieBuddy integration. It is not designed to read Steam credentials, passwords, browser data, documents, or unrelated personal files.
PUBLIC INFORMATION
Survivor names, gameplay statistics, ruleset, signal status, and permanent deceased records are intentionally public on KCSN. Do not use a survivor name you do not want displayed publicly.
SECURITY & RETENTION
Reports are authenticated with installation-specific signing credentials. Deceased records, security flags, and report history may be retained to preserve the archive and protect leaderboard integrity.
