Why?
This service is very new. It is not entirely free to run. I would like to be able to ban anyone overloading
it from use, as well as identify anyone making an unreasonable number of requests. If you don't click the
button to let us use it for indexing, we make a single API call every 24 hours to confirm who you are.
See the full details below.
This is a project by Player Committee member
PedroXimenez.
How your API key is used
Your key is used to identify you by making a call to /profile. The link between your API key and
username is stored in memory for up to 24 hours, and not shared with anyone. We store analytics on the queries
and links you then read to improve the search service, but don't share them with anyone, for any reason,
except potentially Torn.com itself.
If you opt in to use your key to help indexing, we won't store any information about you or linked to
your key. We will use it as part of a pool to download forum posts, which will be available indefinitely.
It will take 12–48 hours for us to start using your key for this, and for us to stop using your key for this.
If you tick this box and change your mind, you can easily update your preferences, and if you do it quickly
we'll probably never use your key.
