Privacy / external services
Privacy
policy.
Phantombladezero.org is currently a read-only fan archive. It does not provide user accounts, comments, forms, or direct community submissions.
01
Data collection and cookies
The site does not run advertising, account registration, comment storage, newsletter signup, or first-party behavioral analytics. The project does not intentionally set first-party tracking cookies. Browser storage may be introduced only when a user-facing feature requires it, and this policy must be updated before that feature launches.
02
Google Analytics
This site uses Google Analytics 4 (measurement ID G-93Z1EDG3XM) to understand aggregate traffic patterns, such as which pages are visited and how visitors arrive. Google Analytics loads scripts from googletagmanager.com and may set cookies or process technical data under Google's privacy policy. The archive does not combine this data with personally identifiable information and uses it only for audience-size and content-performance reporting.
03
YouTube video embeds
Official YouTube content is loaded through the privacy-enhanced youtube-nocookie.com domain only after a visitor chooses to open the video dialog. Before that action, the page displays an image and does not create the YouTube iframe. Once loaded, YouTube may process technical request data under Google's own policies.
04
External links and images
The archive links to S-GAME, Steam, YouTube, Wikipedia, and other official or contextual sources. Visiting those sites sends a request to the external operator and is governed by that operator's privacy policy. Some official images are delivered from S-GAME domains, so the visitor's browser requests those assets directly from the rights holder's server.
05
Hosting and security logs
The final hosting provider may process standard server or CDN logs such as IP address, user agent, requested URL, response status, and request time for delivery, abuse prevention, and security. The production host has not yet been identified in this repository, so provider-specific retention terms must be added after deployment.
06
Future changes
If the archive adds additional analytics, advertising, submissions, accounts, email contact, or community features, this page must be revised before collection begins. The effective date and last-reviewed date will change when the policy materially changes.
This policy is an operational disclosure for a fan site and is not legal advice.
