Privacy Policy

This site has no accounts, no sign-up, no forms and no comments. There is nothing here for you to submit, so we do not ask for, receive or store your name, your email address or anything else you would type.

The short version

What follows is not a template. Every item below was measured on the live site on 27 August 2026 by loading a page in a real browser and recording every network request, cookie and storage key. If you want to check it yourself, open your browser’s developer tools on any page here and look at the Network and Application tabs.

Who sees your IP address when you open a page

Loading any page on this site causes your browser to contact the hosts listed below. Your IP address and browser user-agent are visible to each of them, because that is how the web works — not because we send them anything.

HostWhoseWhy it is contacted
blood-dungeon.wikiCloudflare (our host)Serves the page itself
static.cloudflareinsights.comCloudflareWeb Analytics. Cookieless. Reports aggregate page views and load times to us. We did not add a script for this — Cloudflare injects it for sites on its network. We disclose it because it runs, not because we chose it.
shared.akamai.steamstatic.comValve, via AkamaiServes the six official game screenshots. We link Steam’s images rather than re-hosting Valve’s artwork.
www.googletagmanager.comGoogleGoogle Analytics 4 (property G-B4WPL2JWNX). This host serves the tracking script itself. Unlike the Cloudflare script above, we added this one ourselves — it is not injected by our host.
www.google-analytics.comGoogleWhere the Google Analytics script sends what it collects: the page you are on, where you arrived from, an approximate location derived from your IP, and your device and browser type. One request per page view.
analytics.alphagaindaily.comOursPlausible Analytics, self-hosted by us on another domain we run. Cookieless, no cross-site identifier. It is not a third party — it is the same operator as this site — but it is a different host, so it belongs in this table.
pl31051063.profitableratecpmnetwork.comAdsterraAn advertising network. It serves the single ad unit that sits between the article and the footer, and it loads on page load rather than on click. Adsterra decides what that unit requests next, which means it can pull in hosts we do not control and have not listed. In the load we measured it set no cookie, but that is its choice on the day, not a promise we are in a position to make.

That is the complete list of hosts contacted on a first page load, measured on the date above. There is no tag manager container beyond the GA4 loader, no Facebook pixel, no session recorder, no heatmap and no A/B testing tool. There is an ad network, and the row above is the honest version of that — an earlier draft of this page said there was not, which stopped being true the day the ad unit went live.

What happens when you click a video

The two videos on this site are facades: what you see before clicking is a still image served from this domain (/video/…jpg), not an embed. Until you click, no Google-owned host is contacted at all.

Click the play button and your browser then loads the player from youtube-nocookie.com, along with the Google hosts it depends on (googlevideo.com, gstatic.com, ggpht.com, google.com, googleapis.com, i.ytimg.com). From that point YouTube’s own privacy policy applies to that player, and we have no control over or visibility into it.

Nothing Google-owned is contacted for the player until you press play. If you never press it, that never happens.

What happens when you start an arcade cabinet

The four cabinets at the bottom of the home page work the same way as the videos: what you see before clicking is a cover image served from this domain (/assets/ggemu/…jpg). We re-measured this after the section went live — zero requests reach ggemu.com until a cabinet is clicked.

Click one and the player loads from ggemu.com, which hosts the game and runs its own advertising inside the frame. From that point GGEMU’s privacy policy governs what happens in that box, not ours. We load it in a restricted frame that cannot navigate this page away from you or open windows, but we cannot see into it and we cannot vouch for it.

Cookies and browser storage

Cookies set by this domain, all first-party:

NameValuePurpose
PARAGLIDE_LOCALEenRemembers your language. This site is English-only, so in practice it always holds the same value and changes nothing. It comes from the site framework, not from us tracking you.
_ga / _ga_<id>random IDSet by Google Analytics 4. Distinguishes a returning browser from a new one across visits. This is a first-party cookie (issued under our domain, not Google’s), and its retention period is set by Google, not us.

One sessionStorage key, tsr-scroll-restoration-…, remembers your scroll position so the back button returns you where you were. It never leaves your browser and is cleared when you close the tab.

Reading the cookie jar in a clean browser profile after a full page load, the three cookies above were the only ones present — the ad unit had set none of its own. That is a measurement, not a guarantee: an ad network can change what it sets between one day and the next, and we would not be told. If you want none of it, a content blocker stops the ad unit and the analytics without breaking anything on this site.

What we do not do

  • We do run one ad unit, through Adsterra. It is the only one, it sits below the article, and it is listed in the host table above. We are not going to bury that in a paragraph about how much we respect you.
  • We do not sell, rent or share data, because we do not have any to sell.
  • We do not email you, because we never learn your address.
  • Google Analytics does distinguish returning browsers via the first-party _ga cookie above — we use that to see which pages get read, not to identify you individually.
  • We do not use dark patterns to get consent for things we are not doing anyway.

Where the content comes from

Everything factual on this site is read from Steam’s public endpoints and cited on the page it appears on. See Where our numbers come from. Screenshots and artwork are © Messhof and are shown via Steam’s own image hosts, with attribution.

Your rights

Because we hold no personal data about you, there is nothing for you to request, correct or have deleted. Requests about the data Cloudflare or Valve hold should go to those companies directly — we have no access to it.

Contact

We do not currently publish a contact address. We would rather say that plainly than print an address that nobody reads. If something on this site is wrong, the official Steam store page is always authoritative and should be trusted over us.

Changes

If any of the above changes — a new third-party host, an analytics tool, anything — this page gets updated in the same commit that causes the change, and the date at the top moves. It is dated the day it was last measured, not the day the site launched.

This is an unofficial fan-made information hub. It is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or connected to Messhof, Valve, or Steam.
