PRIVACY POLICY
Privacy Policy
This policy covers northbound.gg only — the marketing site you're on now. It doesn't cover hub.kanaliiga.fi, our Discord server, or FACEIT, since those are separate services with their own privacy practices. See "Other services" below for how that split works.
1. Who runs this site
Northbound is operated by the team behind Kanaliiga. A registered legal entity for Northbound has not been finalized yet — this section will be updated with the operator's full legal name and address as soon as that's confirmed. Until then, treat Kanaliiga as the responsible operator for anything on this domain.
2. What this site collects
Nothing, directly. This site has no accounts, no forms, no newsletter signup, and no analytics or advertising trackers running on it. Every action you can take here — registering a team, joining the community — sends you to a different service, and no data about you passes through northbound.gg to get there.
The one thing outside our control: this site is hosted as static files (currently via Cloudflare). Like any web host, Cloudflare's infrastructure may log basic technical request data — IP address, browser/device type, timestamp, page requested — for security and reliability. We don't receive, store, or use that data ourselves.
If that changes — for example, if we add privacy-friendly analytics to understand traffic — we'll update this section and the "last updated" date above before doing so.
3. Other services this site links to
Registering a team, managing a roster, and paying entry fees all happen on hub.kanaliiga.fi, which is a separate platform with its own privacy policy governing that data. Matches are played on FACEIT, and community discussion happens on Discord — both collect and handle data under their own respective privacy policies, not this one. We'd encourage reading those directly if you're registering a team or joining the community.
4. Cookies
This site does not set any cookies. If that changes, this section will say so and explain what for.
5. Your rights
Because this site doesn't collect or store personal data about you, there's nothing here to access, correct, or delete. If you have data with hub.kanaliiga.fi, Discord, or FACEIT, exercise your rights directly with those services. As a resident of Finland or the EU, you also have the right to lodge a complaint with the Office of the Data Protection Ombudsman if you believe your data has been mishandled by any service in this ecosystem.
6. Changes to this policy
We'll update this page as the site and the league evolve, and update the date at the top whenever we do. Significant changes — like adding analytics or an on-site form — will be called out clearly rather than buried in a silent edit.
