For any questions regarding the API policy for this site please contact Deatvert [2684760] on Discord (deatvert) or ingame. |
Your API key will be held securely and will not be shared nor accessible to anyone not named Deatvert. |
Your API key will only be used sparingly, and only for obtaining data related to your faction or your company. Occasionally it will be used to obtain public data unrelated to those, specifically:
1. Basic faction data (faction/basic or faction/profile) 2. Identity confirmation (user/discord or user/profile) 3. Item Market Data - market value/circulation/overall item stats (torn/item) All public data obtained from such calls is used to support various aspects of the site and associated Discord Bot. All functionality is available to you as a member of the site. Any data which is faction or user-locked will be obtained solely from keys associated with that faction or user. |
Generally it is expected that the usage of your key by DIE will remain at or below 20/hour, roughly 0.33% of your API capacity. |
All API usage is commented with "DIE_Reborn". |
If your key is removed from your profile it will be held for approximately one hour at which point an automated process will remove the key. |
The following is aligned with the Torn City API Policy page.

Data collected with your key is stored forever. In the majority of cases only public or faction-access data is collected. If you would like to request deletion of specific data related to you please contact Deatvert. | Data is divided into personal data and faction data. Personal data is only accessible by you, while faction data is accessible to anyone in the faction. Public data (as listed above) is pooled among all users of DIE. | Data is used to reduce load on Torn API as well as provide the required information for display. | API key is securely stored on the server and is not directly accessible by anyone. Deatvert has admin access to the database, so he can view the API key. No one else can view your API key and nobody can initiate API calls using your key. | A majority of the calls DIE does are faction API calls, and a limited key is the minimum access required for those calls. Additionally, the API key is used to verify your identity and authorize you to access faction data so a limited key serves as suitable identity validation. |
