How your key is used

Your key reads your own data (position, faction balance, OC, stats). Kinetic Energy requires stat sharing: leaders and positions they delegate see your stats, and league standings are visible to all members. Refreshed every 8 hours.

Data storage	Persistent: until you remove your key or leave the faction
Data sharing	Faction. Balances and OC: only positions that can see them in-game (e.g. bankers see balances). Battle stats, personal stats, energy, cooldowns and status: leaders and positions they delegate (including custom reports they run). League standings (gains in the personal stats a league tracks): all faction members. Your key is also used, in rotation with other members' keys, to look up the public Torn stats of faction members who haven't connected (for leagues and reports), the faction's current chain (for chain alerts in Discord), and, during ranked wars and raids, KE's war status, the enemy faction's public member list and, after each war, Torn's war report (for the War page, Kinetic Link and Joule); never anyone's private data. The Discord account you linked in Torn: Joule uses it to recognise you in Discord, and if your position can give money, tags it on withdrawal requests, so people who can see the bank channel see it. OC alerts: if you're missing an item for your OC slot, are holding up an OC (your status), or joined below the pass-rate minimum, that can be posted in the Discord OC channel with your name (and DMed to you if leaders turn that on). Target statuses: in rotation, keys read the public status of players on the target board and on members' own lists when someone opens a list; the board's statuses are seen by faction members, your own list's only by you; kept in memory for a few minutes, never stored.
Purpose of use	Public community tools (faction hub)
Key storage & sharing	Stored (encrypted) / Shared with the faction: used for your own data and, in rotation, for public-stat lookups of faction members who haven't connected, for reading the faction's chain timer, and during wars for reading the enemy's public member list (about one call every 10 seconds shared across all keys), and for reading target statuses when someone opens a target list (one call per player, at most 10 a minute per key). Leaders may also opt in to sharing position abilities and KE's organized crimes (read every 5 minutes, for OC alerts).
Key access level	Limited Access. The hub reads only: position, faction balance, OC, battle stats, personal stats, profile, energy bar, cooldowns, job, the Discord account you linked in Torn (and, if a leader opts in, faction positions and the faction's organized crimes)
