Challengers Pair (チャレペア) · Last updated: 2026-06-26

1. About this site

Challengers Pair is a small, non-commercial bulletin board run by an individual to help MapleStory players find a partner for the CROWN / Challengers World pair content. It is a temporary site operated for the event period and is scheduled to close on or around 27 October 2026. There are no user accounts and no login.

2. Information we collect

We only collect what you choose to type into a recruitment post. Depending on what you fill in, a post may include:

  • Twitter handle (optional)
  • Discord username (optional)
  • Main character name (optional)
  • Server, recruitment content type, and Discord voice availability
  • Planned job, an icon, play-time, and a free-text comment (all optional)
  • A delete password you set, used only to delete your own post

Everything in a post except the delete password is shown publicly on the board to anyone who visits. Please do not enter real names, home addresses, phone numbers, email addresses, or other information that identifies you in real life.

Your delete password is never stored in readable form. We keep only a one-way cryptographic hash (SHA-256) of it, which cannot be reversed back into the password.

3. Information stored in your browser

The site stores two kinds of data in your own browser's local storage:

  • When you post, your delete password is saved so the site can show a "delete" button on the posts you created.
  • When you tap the heart (♡ / "keep") on a post, the ID of that post is saved so you can review your kept posts later in the "キープ (Keep)" tab.

Both stay only in your browser and are never sent to the server (the keep list is sent nowhere at all; the delete password is sent only at the moment you choose to delete a post). No one else, including the operator, can see your keep list. Clearing your browser storage, or removing items from the keep list, deletes this data.

4. Technical data

Like any website, our server and its front proxy may keep short-lived access logs (such as IP address, browser type, and access time) for security and reliable operation. These logs are not used to build profiles and are not shared.

5. How we use information

Posted information is used only to display recruitment posts and to let players contact each other through their own external services (Twitter / Discord). The site has no messaging or matching features, and it does not notify anyone. The "keep" (♡) feature is a private bookmark stored only in your own browser; it is never shared and the people you keep are not notified. We do not use your information for any other purpose.

6. Sharing and selling

We do not sell your information and do not share it with third parties. Note that recruitment posts are public by design, so anyone can read them. Links to external services (Twitter, Discord) are governed by those services' own privacy policies.

7. Advertising and cookies

(If the site shows no ads or analytics): This site does not use tracking cookies, advertising, or third-party analytics.

(If the site shows affiliate ads): This site may display advertisements. Third-party advertising providers may use cookies or similar technologies to serve and measure ads; their use of data is governed by their own privacy policies. Advertisements are clearly labelled as such.

8. Keeping and deleting your post

Your post remains until you delete it, or until the site closes (around 27 October 2026), whichever comes first. To delete a post, use the delete password shown to you when you submitted it. If you lose your delete password, contact the operator (below) and we will help remove it. The operator may also remove any post without prior notice if it is judged inappropriate.

9. Minors

This service is intended for MapleStory players. Whatever your age, please do not post personal contact details or anything that identifies you in real life. If you are a minor, take extra care before sharing any contact handle.

10. Changes to this policy

We may update this policy from time to time. The current version is always the one shown on this page.

11. Contact

For questions about this policy or to request removal of a post, contact the operator at [[OPERATOR_CONTACT]].
