Privacy Policy

Effective: 9 August 2026

This English text is a convenience translation. The Japanese version is the authoritative one; if the two differ, the Japanese text governs.

Vitals ("the Service") is an Apex Legends rank tracker operated by an individual. This policy sets out what information the Service collects and how it is handled.

1. Information collected

The Service collects and stores the following.

  • Discord account information On sign-in, your Discord user ID, username and avatar image are collected. Discord may supply an email address during authentication, but the Service neither stores nor uses it. Passwords are never collected.
  • Information you register Game account identifiers (EA ID, PSN online ID, Xbox gamertag), your display name on the Service, and your friend, group and favorite relationships.
  • Rank data Rank information for registered and favorited game accounts (RP, tier, player name and so on) is fetched periodically from the public Apex Legends Status API and stored as history.
  • Access information IP addresses are used temporarily for rate limiting. They are never persisted to the database. Statistics such as request counts per endpoint and daily active users are recorded to improve the Service.
  • Hosting providers' access logs The Service runs on external hosting providers, each of which may retain access logs (including IP addresses) for incident response and abuse prevention.

2. Cookies

The Service uses a session cookie to keep you signed in. It is essential to providing the Service. No analytics tools are used.

3. Advertising (Google AdSense)

The Service uses Google AdSense, a third-party advertising service.

  • Third-party vendors including Google use cookies to serve ads based on a user's prior visits to this Service or other websites.
  • Google's use of advertising cookies enables it and its partners to serve relevant ads based on visits to this Service and other sites.
  • You can opt out of personalised advertising in Google's Ads Settings. You can also visit www.aboutads.info to opt out of third-party vendor cookies used for personalised advertising.

For details of how Google handles data, see "How Google uses information from sites or apps that use our services".

4. Purposes of use

Collected information is used for the following purposes.

  • Providing the Service's features, such as recording and displaying rank history
  • Sign-in authentication and the friends and groups features
  • Preventing abuse and enforcing rate limits
  • Understanding usage and improving the Service (as statistics)
  • Serving advertising

5. Third parties and external services

Except as required by law, collected personal information is not provided to third parties without consent. The Service does, however, rely on the following external services to operate, and data is processed on their servers to that extent.

  • Vercel (website hosting)
  • Render (API server and transient data processing)
  • Neon (database)
  • Google (advertising)

6. What is publicly visible

Game account identifiers, player names and rank history are treated as data derived from publicly available in-game information, and can be searched and read by anyone, including signed-out visitors. Discord account information, your display name on the Service, and your friend and group relationships are not disclosed to anyone outside the Service's users.

7. Retention and deletion

Information is retained for as long as it is needed to provide the Service. You can unlink a registered game account from the settings screen, and remove a favorite player from the Players tab, at any time. To delete your account or the data stored about you, contact the address below; requests are handled within a reasonable period.

8. Disclaimer

The Service is unofficial and unaffiliated with EA or Respawn Entertainment. Rank data depends on an external public API and its accuracy and completeness are not guaranteed.

9. Changes to this policy

This policy may be changed as needed. Significant changes will be announced on this page. The revised policy takes effect when posted here.
