Privacy policy

Default load, then your choice

On a first visit this site loads Google Analytics 4, Microsoft Clarity and Adsterra before you click anything. No stored choice means granted. The banner is a notice and a withdrawal control, not a gate: Reject turns those vendors off and is remembered for 180 days. The footer Cookie settings button reopens the banner so you can change your mind. If the browser sends Global Privacy Control or Do Not Track, the visitor is treated as having rejected. Nothing on this site is held back until an Accept click.

Consent Mode starts with advertising storage denied and analytics storage granted. This technical configuration describes the signals sent to vendors; it does not establish that every visitor has given legal consent. Serving static pages also involves the hosting provider handling network requests.

Google Analytics 4 (GA4)

Measurement ID G-3WR04VT75H. The tag is served from www.googletagmanager.com and reports to *.google-analytics.com. GA4 may set _ga to distinguish browsers and _ga_<container-id> for session state. It receives the page URL, referrer, approximate location derived from IP, device and browser details, and interaction events. The property retention setting has not been independently recorded, so no property-specific duration is asserted here. Reject disables this site’s analytics requests. Google policy: policies.google.com/privacy.

Microsoft Clarity

Project z9bey60lv8. The script is served from www.clarity.ms and scripts.clarity.ms and reports to *.clarity.ms. Clarity records heatmaps and session replays, with masking controls for sensitive content. Microsoft documents _clck and _clsk as first-party cookies for visitor and session identifiers; CLID is a third-party identifier, and MUID is a Microsoft browser identifier. The same Microsoft cookie documentation also lists ANONCHK, MR and SM as third-party cookies for identifier transfer flags, refresh and synchronization. It receives pages viewed, clicks, scroll and pointer movement, plus device and browser details. Cookie and recording retention depend on Microsoft’s current service settings; no project-specific retention export is available here. Reject stops this site loading Clarity. Microsoft policy: privacy.microsoft.com/privacystatement.

Adsterra

Publisher ID 3403020, website ID 6179707. Two placements load by default: Native Banner unit 32122267 (NativeBanner_1) and Social Bar unit 32122268 (SocialBar_1). Their scripts come from bicea.org and creatives come from the network rotating CDNs. Adsterra and its partners may set cookies or equivalent identifiers under bicea.org and the creative domains; their names are chosen by the network and can change without notice, so this page does not pretend to freeze a list. They receive the page URL, IP address, user agent, and ad request and impression data, and use it to choose and measure ads. Retention is set by Adsterra and its partners. Reject stops this site loading the advertising scripts. Adsterra policy: adsterra.com/privacy-policy.

YouTube

Some guides show a trailer. The page ships a locally hosted picture and a play button; the player on www.youtube-nocookie.com is requested when you press play, not before. That request can set YouTube and Google cookies under youtube.com and google.com and is covered by Google privacy policy. Pressing play is your action; there is no separate consent dialog for it.

Local storage on this site

woa_consent_v1 stores choice, either granted or denied, and exp, a timestamp 180 days ahead. woa_socialbar_closed_v1 stores closed:true and exp when you close the Adsterra Social Bar, so the bar does not reappear on the next page load for 180 days; Accept clears that record. Neither key is sent to a server by us. You can delete both in your browser site settings.

Personalised advertising opt-outs

You can object to personalised ads at Google Ads Settings, DAA WebChoices, Your Online Choices or NAI. Reject on this site stops the Adsterra scripts from loading at all; it does not reach other sites.

Retention

Consent and Social Bar close records: 180 days. Vendor retention: see the linked Google, Microsoft and Adsterra policies; unverified property-specific durations are intentionally left unspecified. Host access logs, if the host keeps them, follow the host ordinary retention. We do not keep a separate copy of any of these records.

Your rights

Depending on where you live you can ask for access, correction, deletion or a copy, and object to processing we actually do. Email [email protected]. You can also clear woa_consent_v1 and woa_socialbar_closed_v1 in your browser site settings. We answer privacy mail. Global Privacy Control is treated as Reject; a legacy Do Not Track signal is also treated as Reject here, although its meaning varies across browsers.

Changes and children

The date on this page moves when the policy moves. If a new third party is added, its name, cookies and purpose are written here before the tag ships. This site is a reference guide for a game rated ESRB Teen. It is not directed at children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect their data.
