Privacy Policy
Your privacy matters to us. This policy explains what information we collect, how we use it, and your rights regarding your data.
Information We Process
You can read our guides without registering. Hosting services process technical request information, such as IP addresses, requested URLs and browser details, to deliver and protect the site. If you contact us, we receive the information you choose to send.
With your permission, Google Analytics processes usage information, browser and device details, and cookie identifiers. Google also receives technical network information when your browser connects to its service. These data should not be treated as anonymous.
Optional Analytics & Your Choice
Google Analytics is off until you explicitly accept it. We remember your acceptance or refusal in this browser's local storage under “cookie-consent” and restore that choice on later visits. Clearing site storage removes the choice. If storage is unavailable or your browser sends Global Privacy Control (GPC), Analytics stays off. Analytics is also disabled on local and preview versions of this site.
Use “Analytics choices (change or withdraw)” in the footer at any time, then choose Decline to withdraw permission. Withdrawal stops subsequent Analytics tracking in this page; it cannot retract information already sent. You can also delete existing Analytics cookies through your browser settings. A saved choice applies to this browser, not automatically to your other devices.
When accepted, Analytics may set cookies. We send only fixed public page paths, bounded search result counts, and predefined affiliate placement and partner labels. We do not send search text, query strings, URL fragments, raw outbound URLs or page referrers in our Analytics events. We do not grant advertising storage, advertising user data or ad personalization consent.
Third-Party Services & Affiliate Links
Google provides Analytics and the fonts used to display this site. Font requests occur independently of your optional Analytics choice and disclose technical request information to Google. Google's privacy information is available at https://policies.google.com/privacy.
We participate in affiliate programs, including Green Man Gaming. Affiliate links work regardless of your Analytics choice. Following a link takes you to a third party whose own privacy and cookie practices apply; the destination may process referral information. Our Analytics choice does not control those third-party sites.
Privacy Questions & Requests
Depending on where you live and the information involved, you may have rights to request access, correction or deletion of personal information, or to object to or restrict its processing. Contact us through our contact page with questions or requests. Please do not send sensitive information unnecessarily.
Declining Analytics does not prevent you from reading guides, searching the site or using affiliate links. We honor GPC by keeping optional Analytics off.
Children's Privacy
This site is intended for a general audience interested in Europa Universalis 5, not specifically for children under 13. If you believe a child has provided personal information to us, please contact us so we can review the matter.
Policy Updates
We may revise this policy as our practices change. The revision date below reflects an editorial update, not the date you opened this page. Visiting the site does not by itself constitute acceptance of optional Analytics.
Contact Information
For questions about this policy or our data practices, use our contact page.
Data Retention
Your browser keeps your consent choice until you change it or clear site storage. Analytics data retention is managed in the Google Analytics service; we do not state an unverified retention period here. Contact us with retention or deletion questions.
International Users
Our service providers may process information in countries other than your own. Their privacy policies explain their processing and applicable transfer safeguards. Optional Analytics runs only after acceptance.
