Privacy Policy

Last updated: October 12, 2025

Learn how we handle your personal data, comments, and contributions while keeping the site transparent.

1Information We Collect

KeyAway does not require account registration. We may collect limited information when you:

  • Post comments (such as your GitHub profile if using Giscus)
  • Make a donation through a third-party service
  • Submit CD key suggestions or contact us (name, email, and message content - stored securely via Sanity CMS)
  • Report key status (anonymous, no personal data collected)

2Purpose of Content

All CD keys listed on KeyAway are public giveaway keys provided directly by software distributors. They are made available to everyone for a limited time or version. We simply aggregate and display them in one place to make them easier to access.

No stolen, pirated, or unauthorized keys are hosted or distributed.

3Cookies and Analytics

We may use basic analytics or cookies to understand site usage. No personal data is sold or shared with advertisers.

4Third-Party Services

Comments and donations are handled by trusted third-party services (e.g., GitHub Discussions, PayPal, or similar). Please refer to their respective privacy policies for details.

5Key Suggestions & Contact Forms

When you submit a CD key suggestion or contact us through our forms:

  • Data Collected: Your name, email, and message/key details
  • Purpose: To verify and publish legitimate keys, or to respond to your inquiry
  • Storage: Submissions are stored securely in Sanity CMS and are only accessible by site administrators
  • Retention: We retain submissions until they are processed. Contact messages may be kept for support purposes
  • No Sharing: Your personal information is never shared with third parties or used for marketing

Note: Only the CD keys themselves (not your personal info) are published publicly after verification. Your email is used solely for communication if needed.

6Data Security

We take reasonable measures to protect your data, including secure HTTPS connections and trusted CMS infrastructure. However, no online service is 100% secure.
