Insight for FACEIT — Privacy Policy
Effective November 2, 2026 (updated for version 0.12). Insight for FACEIT is an independent browser extension and is not affiliated with or endorsed by FACEIT.
What the extension does
It adds player statistics, shared match history, team map statistics and an estimated server ping to CS2 match rooms on faceit.com.
Data it uses and where it goes
- Pages on faceit.com. The extension reads the match room page in your browser to find the players and the map, and asks faceit.com's own session endpoint which account you are signed in with (nickname and player ID). For FACEIT Rating and Swing, while a match room is open, it requests FACEIT's statistics on faceit.com with your existing session, at a strictly limited rate. Only per-player summaries (rating, swing, damage, Elo change) are stored, on your device. This stays between your browser and FACEIT.
- Our server. To fetch public statistics from the FACEIT Data API, the extension sends FACEIT player IDs, nicknames and match IDs to
faceit-insight-api.lowk3y-dev.workers.dev, which forwards them to FACEIT and briefly caches FACEIT's answers. We do not store who made a request. The server runs on Cloudflare, which may keep standard technical logs (such as IP addresses) under its own policy. - "Uses Insight" mark. Unless you switch "Show others that I use Insight" off in the extension popup, your FACEIT player ID is stored on the extension's server with the time it was last seen, so other users of the extension see a small mark next to your nickname. Switching it off deletes the entry. The server is also asked which players in a match room use the extension.
- Ping measurement. To estimate your ping to the match server's city, the extension makes small requests to Amazon Web Services endpoints (
dynamodb.<region>.amazonaws.com/ping). They contain no personal data; like any web request, AWS sees your IP address. - On your device. Settings, the detected account, cached statistics, a summary of your own match history (match IDs, the player IDs of teammates and opponents, results) and your Premium status (once Premium is available) are kept in the browser's extension storage on your computer. Clearing the cache from the extension popup or removing the extension deletes them.
What it does not do
- No selling or sharing of data with third parties beyond the services listed above.
- No analytics, tracking or fingerprinting.
- No advertising.
- No access to websites other than faceit.com.
