Are they also other articles that have covered this?
If you read through the other topic we discuss itâs still technically private info so if theyâre under 13 it violates COPA. Also who says it wonât be intercepted if they put in their real password. Itâs a very slippery slope and I think you should steer clear from using any sort of password system no matter the circumstances.
All my staff are 13+ and the password is the same for everyone and only my staff have it
The op isnât trying to collect personal data, they have an admin panel, then the admin inputs a password provided by the owner of the game. He isnât trying to make admins put their roblox password into the box, but rather the password that the owner gave them (So that way if their account gets hacked, the hacker wonât know the password to put into it, only the staff, and account owner know the password).
(Unless I donât fully understand what the op is trying to make / do)
EDIT: Plus, the owner can simply state that when someone gets hired, they automatically agree to something like this.

Thank you thatâs exactly what I meant.
If Roblox moderation were to review a report on this theyâd see collecting personal data. You have to remember to think about it from all angles. The first thing they would most likely see is a place for your password, thereâs no specific indication the password was provided, the word password instead of verification code raises some questions if itâs a scam, new users putting their real passwords out and they get leaked. Itâs just very risky and I feel like if youâre better of avoiding this system even though it seems cool.
A password isnât personal data:
You canât identify someone just by knowing only their password.
EDIT: And if someone decides to put in their address / whatever personal info inside the âtype passwordâ box instead of a password, then hit the enter key, then thats their problem not the developers.
Just teach your admins about online security. That way their accounts donât get compromised anyways. My Roblox account has like 30 characters long random password, 2 factor authentication, pin, I use different password on every site, my email has 2fa too so you would need access to my phone in order to get through, I donât click any random links, I donât download anything suspicious etc. Getting through that security just to mess around with my Roblox game would be worthless considering that would take millions of years even on the best computer possible to crack that or high skill of compromising accounts through security vulnerabilities.
See when you go off of something off of non-Roblox related their definitions will very. I know itâs not related to a login GUI in the TOS but under Cheating and Exploiting it clearly states that passwords are person information.
Any sort of personal information that is taken whether itâs foreign or domestic is 100% the Developers issue and fault. With this system theyâre allowing that chance and when a Developer allows a chance just to seem different or what not, theyâre not talking personal information and safety into concern and there for makes it their issue. Weâve seen countless Developers banned for this same reason of using a system that is old/unstable when thereâs another one and when itâs venerable Roblox will take action. We have to remember as Developers everything we do has a consequence and Roblox Moderation wonât see it through our eyes and sometimes taking the safe route will save you. Honestly Iâd see if you can contact a Roblox Moderator and talk it over with them.
The password is PROVIDED for themâŚ

Yes Iâm aware but Roblox Moderation have no way of knowing that. I feel like everyone with this question keeps fishing for an answer theyâre looking for. Dude itâs not worth it. As Iâve stated it could be intercepted and if they put in their real password unknowingly and itâs found out youâre the one to blame. Iâm trying to help you understand Roblox Moderation will see it as a risk created by you there for on you and you shouldnât risk it. Plus someone can easily leak the Staff passwords.
My staff clearly knows that the password is provided for them, they are all above 13, so they all have common sense. I can easily change the password and they know not to leak it.
That means nothing but okâŚ
People leak it even if they know itâs not the right thing to do.
The common people who join the game wonât though and if they enter it and if it getâs intercepted by you or someone else thatâs 100% on you in the Moderation side of things.
The login system only appears to my staff⌠no one elseâŚ
