Privacy policy

What is stored in your browser

Your browser stores two small values in localStorage (a storage area on your device). These values stay on your device and never go anywhere else:

• Age acknowledgement: this confirms that you are of legal age, so the site does not show the notice again.
• Theme preference: light, dark, or system.

If you clear your site data, both values are deleted. This site sets no cookies of any kind.

What is not collected

This site has no account or login. It has no advertising, no fingerprinting, and no cross-site tracking. Other than the page-view analytics and the feedback form described below, no third-party service runs on this site. We host all fonts ourselves at build time, so viewing a page sends no request to Google Fonts or any other font service.

Analytics

Game Scene Guides uses Vercel Web Analytics to count page views and see which guides people read. This tool is private by design: it sets no cookies, and it does not fingerprint your device or follow you to other sites. To estimate the number of unique visitors, Vercel creates an anonymous hash (a scrambled code) from your request, using a salt (a random value) that changes every 24 hours. Vercel uses your IP address only to create this hash, and it does not store your IP address in the analytics data. Because the salt changes daily, no one can link your visits across different days. Vercel keeps only the page path, the referring URL, and your rough location (country, region, city) from your IP address. It also keeps basic device information: your browser, operating system, and device type. This processing is covered by Vercel’s analytics privacy notice.

Feedback form

Every guide page and the dedicated feedback page carry a feedback form, built and hosted entirely by this site — no third-party form service is involved. If you submit it, we store the message you write, your email address if you choose to give one, and the IP address the submission came from, in our own database. The game request form works the same way, and also stores the game title and the link you give. The IP address is used only to limit spam and is not shown next to your message anywhere. We use submissions to fix guides and decide what to cover next; we do not publish them anywhere on the site, and we do not share them with anyone else.

Hosting and server logs

Vercel serves this site. Like any web host, Vercel processes standard request information to deliver pages and protect the service. This information includes your IP address and your browser user-agent (a text string that identifies your browser). This processing is covered by Vercel’s privacy policy. Game Scene Guides keeps no server-side logs of its own and adds no request tracking of its own.

Links to other sites

Guides and store links point to other sites, such as storefronts and wikis. Those sites have their own privacy practices. This policy does not cover them.

RSS

Each game has an RSS feed, and one more feed covers every game (a file that lists updates so a reader app can check them). Requesting this feed sends no personal data beyond the standard server-log information described above.
