Information we receive
Information collected automatically
Our hosting and security providers may process technical request data such as IP address, browser type, requested page, request time, referring page and error information. This data is used to deliver the site, prevent abuse, diagnose failures and protect the service.
Google Analytics
We use Google Analytics to understand aggregate use of the site. The standard implementation may collect user and session counts, approximate location, browser and device information, and page interactions. Google Analytics uses a first-party cookie named _ga to distinguish browsers and sessions when analytics storage is enabled.
Google states that IP addresses are used to derive approximate location and are discarded before the data is logged in Google Analytics. Learn more in Google's Analytics data collection documentation.
Information you choose to send
If you contact us by email, we receive the address, message and any attachments you choose to provide. The site does not currently offer user accounts, purchases, comments or a public submission form.
How information is used
- To operate, secure and troubleshoot the website.
- To understand which guides are useful and improve navigation and content.
- To respond to corrections, privacy questions and other messages.
- To detect abuse and comply with valid legal obligations.
We do not sell personal information. We do not ask visitors to provide passwords, payment information or government identifiers.
Service providers and international processing
Technical information may be processed by providers that help host, secure and measure the site, including Google Analytics. Those providers process information under their own terms and may operate in countries other than your own. Google explains its handling of partner-site data in How Google uses information from sites or apps that use its services.
Cookies and your choices
You can block or delete cookies through your browser. Blocking analytics storage may reduce the information available in our reports but should not prevent access to our guides. You can also use the official Google Analytics opt-out browser add-on.
Wilds Atlas does not currently display third-party advertising. If advertising is introduced, this policy and the site's consent controls will be updated before ad code is activated.
Retention and security
Analytics and technical logs are retained only for operational, measurement, security and legal needs, subject to the settings and retention practices of the relevant provider. Contact messages are kept for as long as needed to resolve the inquiry and maintain an appropriate record. No internet service can guarantee absolute security.
Children
The site is a general gaming reference and is not directed to children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children through accounts, comments or forms because those features are not offered.
Changes and questions
We may update this policy when the site's services or data practices change. The revision date at the top will be updated when material changes are published. For questions or privacy requests, use the contact page.
