The system works like this:

  • EDMC plugin filters your Elite Dangerous journal file watching for specific events that represent danger
  • The body of those events are sent to the Lakon Alerting API (running on Cloudflare)
  • Lakon Alerting API instructs Discord to DM you a relevant message

This means I collect in logs and data:

  • Your Discord ID + Discord Username
    • I need this for the system to send you DMs
  • Your IP address that you send events from
    • This only ends up in server API logs for diagnostic purposes
    • It gets deleted after 7 days of not using the system
  • The body of those journal events
    • Typically these are boring and do not usually include your Elite CMDR name, but I can’t guarantee that
  • How bad you are at keeping your ships alive I guess???

If you want me to purge your Discord info then email lakon at sinow.blue, everything else will autodelete 7 days after you stop using the system.
