Cookies

This site sets as few cookies as possible. What is technically necessary is set without asking — everything else only once you have agreed in the notice at the bottom. You can change your decision at any time via “Cookie settings” in the footer.

_gcl_auGoogle Ads — measures whether an ad led to a purchase90 daysonly with your consent

Google Ads loads as soon as you open the page — in doing so, Google learns your IP address. Until you agree, it runs in Google's consent mode set to “denied”, with ad identifiers redacted, and no cookie is set. If you do not agree, it stays that way.

For visitors without a membership we also load Google AdSense for ads — not on the mod pages and never for members. Which advertising cookies Google may set is asked in Google's own consent dialog on your first visit; you can change your answer via “Cookie settings” in the footer. The individual Google cookies are described by Google at policies.google.com/technologies/cookies.

Sign-in and sign-up run Cloudflare Turnstile as protection against automated accounts. It sets no advertising cookie and is required to operate those forms — which is why no consent is requested for it.

YouTube videos and the Discord panel on the community page only load after you release them with a click. If you tick “remember”, your browser stores that decision locally (localStorage) — it stays with you, we never see it, and you can clear it any time via your browser's site data. The same goes for forum drafts your browser keeps so a tab closed by accident does not cost you the text.

Fonts and images come from our own server. Should another service ever be added, it will be listed here first — and you will be asked before anything that is not technically necessary is set.
