Privacy policy
This policy describes azimuthforza.com as of 2026-10-24. The operator answers at [email protected]. Cookie settings in the footer reopens the choice banner at any time.
What loads when you open a page
Pages are static files. Production hosting uses Cloudflare, which receives request metadata such as the IP address, user agent and requested URL to deliver and secure the site; see the Cloudflare Privacy Policy. Fonts and illustrations are served locally. On a first visit with no stored choice, Google Analytics 4, Microsoft Clarity and Adsterra (Native Banner and Social Bar) load by default on the first screen. The banner is an information and withdrawal control, not prior opt-in. Reject reloads the page to terminate running analytics, ad and recording scripts, denies Google storage and remembers the choice for 180 days. Global Privacy Control and Do Not Track are treated as Reject.
| Storage | Purpose | Retention | Control |
|---|---|---|---|
| localStorage key af_consent | Records Accept or Reject and the expiry timestamp | 180 days | Your choice, stored locally on your device |
| localStorage key af_ads_closed | Remembers Hide ads so both ad units stay hidden until Accept enables them again | Until Accept or you clear site data | Your choice, stored locally on your device |
| Google Analytics 4 cookies _ga and _ga_* | Distinguishes browsers and persists session state | Google documents a default of 2 years; browser limits may shorten it. This is not the property data-retention setting. | Loads by default; Reject denies storage and stops the tag loader on later page views |
| Microsoft Clarity cookies _clck, _clsk and potentially MUID | Session replay, heatmaps and aggregate behaviour reports | Provider-managed; consult the linked Clarity cookie documentation for current lifetimes | Loads by default; Reject stops the loader and recording through a page reload |
| Adsterra cookies and localStorage entries | Ad delivery, frequency capping, measurement and fraud prevention; names vary with the creative and its demand partners | Vendor- and campaign-dependent; no fixed lifetime is asserted here | Loads by default; Reject stops the loader through a page reload |
| YouTube cookies after you press Play | Video playback and Google account preferences | Set by Google under its own policy | Only the Play action creates a video frame |
| Email you send us | Handle a correction or privacy request through the site mailbox | No fixed automatic deletion period is asserted here; contact us to request deletion | Steps you take to contact us |
Google Analytics 4
Google Analytics 4 loads by default through gtag.js from googletagmanager.com and sends page views and events to google-analytics.com. We use aggregate reports to understand which guides are read. Google documents a default two-year lifetime for _ga and _ga_* cookies in its GA4 cookie documentation; cookie lifetime is different from server-side data retention, and we do not assert an unverified property retention setting. Consent Mode v2 sets the three advertising signals to denied and analytics_storage to granted before config. The body loader updates the signals to granted unless Reject, GPC or DNT applies. Reject denies all four signals and drops the tag loader, so a page loaded after Reject requests neither googletagmanager.com nor google-analytics.com; requests sent before the choice cannot be recalled. See the Google Privacy Policy and Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on. Our Measurement ID is G-16J7H7NCSM.
Microsoft Clarity
Microsoft Clarity loads by default to record sessions and build heatmaps. Project z2majduwgj requests www.clarity.ms, scripts.clarity.ms and regional collection hosts under clarity.ms. Microsoft may use _clck, _clsk, MUID and session storage, as described in its cookie documentation and Privacy Statement. We do not claim all visible page text is masked. Reject sends the ConsentV2 denied signal and reloads the page without the Clarity loader, stopping further recording for that visit and later page views while the stored rejection is valid.
Adsterra advertising
Adsterra advertising loads by default. Publisher 3403020 uses Native Banner unit 31895979 and Social Bar unit 31895980, both requested from bicea.org. Adsterra and its demand partners may receive IP address, user agent, page URL and ad interaction events, and may use cookies or localStorage for delivery, frequency capping, measurement and fraud prevention. Names and lifetimes vary by campaign; we do not invent a fixed storage period. Adult ads are disabled in this site's placement configuration. Reject stops these loaders and reloads the page to terminate already-running scripts. The Adsterra privacy policy describes the provider's processing.
YouTube
Video buttons on a guide show a local thumbnail until you press Play. Pressing Play creates a frame from youtube-nocookie.com, and Google may then receive your IP address and set its own cookies under the Google Privacy Policy. The first screen does not create that frame. Thumbnail files used in structured data are not fetched as images by the page itself.
Default loading, Accept and Reject
With no stored choice, analytics, session replay and ads load by default and the banner remains available until you choose. Accept records granted for 180 days. Reject records denied for 180 days, sends denied signals and reloads the page to stop already-running ad and recording code. Later page views create no Clarity, Adsterra or GA4 scripts while the rejection is stored. Cookie settings in the footer reopens the banner; Accept can enable the loaders again. Requests already sent cannot be recalled, and existing cookies or cache entries are not erased from other origins. Browser settings control deletion of those records. If browser storage is disabled, a choice cannot be remembered across page loads.
Personalized advertising and opt-outs
- Adsterra may personalize ads using the data described above. You can object to personalized advertising through the Adsterra privacy policy and its opt-out controls.
- Google Ads Settings covers Google ad personalization, including ads that may appear through a demand partner.
- NAI opt-out and the DAA YourAdChoices controls explain choices for participating ad companies in the United States.
- Global Privacy Control is honored as a denied choice. Do Not Track is also treated as denied by the loaders.
- We do not broker contact emails. Advertising providers may share data under their policies; Reject disables their loaders. We do not knowingly solicit personal data from children.
Your rights
You can ask for access, correction, deletion, or a restriction, and you can object to handling that is based on a request you sent us or on our legitimate interest. Email [email protected]. You can also complain to a data-protection authority where you live. We do not knowingly collect children's data. The site is a game guide for a general audience.
Changes
If a third-party script is added or removed, this page will name it, its purpose, its storage and its retention before the build that changes it. The date at the top of the page is the same date used in the sitemap.
Questions
Is an account required?
No account is needed to read the guides. Advertising and measurement providers receive data as described below. Reject stops the analytics, ad and recording loaders and denies Google storage for 180 days.
How do I change the consent choice?
Use Cookie settings in the footer. Accept stores af_consent as granted. Reject stores it as denied and asks the page loaders to stop. The record expires after 180 days, after which the next visit starts from the default again.
What is the default if I have never chosen?
A first visit with no stored choice is treated as granted: Google Analytics 4, Microsoft Clarity and Adsterra load on the first screen, and the banner is shown so you can withdraw. Reject is the switch that turns them off.
