#105 We’ve just made a few important updates to the Gathering Bounty: Show Your Pride quest! A Forfeit Button has now been added! If you're unable to obtain the requested item, you’ll be able to forfeit the quest after 10 minutes and try again. The request pool has also been updated and each quest will now only ask for 1 item instead of multiple. This should make completing them much smoother and more accessible for everyone!
#104 I want to sincerely apologize for the mislabeling of the Pride Avatar selections. This was an error on my part, and I deeply regret any confusion or frustration it may have caused. Thanks to your feedback and reports, this issue has now been corrected. In addition, the Aromantic Avatar has officially been added and is now live and active! We are incredibly grateful for this community’s patience and care in helping us improve. Thank you again for bringing this to our attention! Again, I am so, so sorry this happened.

Additionally, the Aesiri, Odonagon, and Kirgem Avatars have now been properly configured and are functioning as intended. We sincerely apologize for the delay and appreciate everyone’s continued patience while this was resolved.

#62 Hey everyone! We wanted to take a moment to explain the “Do Not Sell My Personal Information” button that some users may have noticed appearing at the bottom of our site recently.
This button was added automatically as part of our ad partner’s compliance with new privacy laws in certain U.S. states (such as the California Privacy Rights Act and similar legislation in Virginia, Colorado, and others). These laws require us to provide an opt-out option for any sharing of personal data that could be considered a “sale” under their definitions—even if that sharing is limited to cookie data for analytics or ad services.
What this means:
• Santae does not sell your personal information in the traditional sense (e.g., name, email, etc.).
• However, we do use tools like analytics and ad platforms, which may involve data sharing that falls under legal definitions of “sale” or “share.”
• This opt-out tool is designed to give affected users more control over how their data is used.
We’re aware that some users have reported the opt-out setting not saving correctly. We’re actively looking into this and will update you as soon as it’s resolved.
If you have any questions, please don’t hesitate to reach out via a Support Ticket.
Thanks for your continued trust as we grow, and we’ll always do our best to keep your experience safe and transparent.
~The Santae Team

#38 The Admirer and Radiance Giftboxes have been removed from user shops and destocked. These items were originally designed as a way to surprise a friend or welcome a new member, not as a gacha-style in-game item. While they required SP, the element of chance still introduced a form of gambling, which is not in the best interest of our community. To align with their intended purpose, we have modified their functionality, and they can no longer be sold in user shops. Thank you to everyone for your patience while we deliberated on this specific situation.
