Analyzed 162 server/evr_*.go files (~46K LOC) to identify features with privacy policy implications for legal review.

Deliverable: PRIVACY_FEATURES_ANALYSIS.md

  • 17 functional categories covering authentication, geolocation, device fingerprinting, Discord integration, matchmaking, behavioral analysis, VRML integration, telemetry, and data retention
  • 60+ specific features enumerated with privacy relevance explanation for each
  • 12 data categories summarized: identifiers, network data, device info, social graphs, performance metrics, behavioral data, external identities, communications, preferences, logs, commercial data, temporal data

Key findings include:

  • Third-party data sharing with Discord, IPQS (fraud detection), VRML (competitive gaming)
  • Persistent cross-device/cross-platform tracking via hardware fingerprinting, IP history, and system profiles
  • Indefinite retention of login history, enforcement records, and match participation
  • Alternate account detection using IP addresses, HMD serials, and hardware signatures
  • Public leaderboard exposure of performance data with Discord IDs in metadata

Document structured for non-technical stakeholders; no code excerpts, technical jargon minimized, observable behavior described plainly.

Original prompt

This section details on the original issue you should resolve

<issue_title>Enumerate privacy policy impacting features by analyzing server/evr_*.go</issue_title>
<issue_description>Objective:

  • Analyze all Go source files in the repository matching pattern
    server/evr_*.go.
  • Identify and enumerate all features in these files that have any
    impact on, or relevance to, a privacy policy.
  • Categorize each feature succinctly (functional area--e.g. login,
    matchmaking, statistics, external account linking, group management,
    storage, integrations).

Requirements:

  • For each identified feature, briefly describe why or how
    the feature might affect a privacy policy (e.g., handling personal
    data, persistent identifiers, sharing with third parties).
  • Output should be structured as an outline or enumerated list,
    suitable as a first step for legal/privacy review.
  • Do NOT include language or recommendations from a privacy
    perspective--simply identify and categorize technical features and
    their observable privacy implications.
  • Do NOT include specific code excerpts.
  • Focus only on behavior observable in server/evr_*.go sources.

Output format:

  • Provide a list with categories, feature name/brief, and a
    sentence on privacy policy relevance for each.
