Collection

Data we process

When you submit a qualification entry, the portal processes the osu! username you provide and the result fields contained in your replay file. The replay is read in memory for validation and is not saved to disk by this application.

• Username: used to match the replay owner and display a successful qualifier.
• Replay data: parsed only to evaluate the qualification rules.
• Session cookie: stores qualification status and username in a signed cookie.
• Network information: your IP address is used temporarily for rate limiting and may appear in operational access logs.

Purpose

How it is used

The information is used only to operate the challenge: validate replay requirements, prevent leaderboard impersonation, confirm account existence, control abusive traffic, and grant successful participants access to the competitor page.

The portal does not sell participant data, build advertising profiles, or use replay submissions for unrelated purposes.

Third Parties

External services

The server contacts osu.ppy.sh to check whether the submitted username has an official profile and whether it belongs to a protected top 50 leaderboard player. osu! receives the server request and the username being checked.

Your browser also requests typography from Google Fonts and icons from cdnjs. Those providers may receive standard request information such as your IP address, browser details, and referring page under their own privacy terms.

Storage

Retention

Uploaded replay bytes are discarded when the request finishes. Qualification sessions expire after 30 minutes. Rate-limit records and osu! lookup results are temporary in-memory data. Operational log retention depends on the event server configuration.

The competitor key is stored only in server configuration and is not placed in the public qualifier page or frontend scripts.

Control

Your choices

Participation is optional. If you do not want the portal to process a replay or username, do not submit the qualification form. You can remove the qualification session from your browser by clearing site data for this portal or closing it after the session expires.

Questions about the event server or its logs should be directed to the Sunway Mania 2026 organizers through the official event channel.
