Ellatha.com and its subdomain gamingwithdaopa.ellatha.com (collectively, "we," "us," or "our site") are committed to protecting your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, share, and protect your personal data in compliance with the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), the ePrivacy Directive, and the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA). It applies to all visitors to our site, which provides video game tools, maps, and related content.

1. What This Privacy Policy Covers

This policy covers our handling of personal data collected when you visit ellatha.com or gamingwithdaopa.ellatha.com. "Personal data" means any information relating to an identified or identifiable individual (e.g., IP addresses, cookies). This policy does not apply to third-party services we do not own or control, such as Google AdSense's ad partners.

We collect limited personal data to provide and improve our site's content and display advertisements. We do not offer user accounts or collect personal information through forms.

    • To serve relevant ads via Google AdSense.
    • To analyze website performance and user behavior.
  • Legal Basis (GDPR):
    • Consent for non-essential cookies and ad personalization (via our cookie banner).
    • Legitimate interest for essential operations and analytics.

3. How We Share Your Data

We do not sell or rent your personal data. We may share data as follows:

  • With Google AdSense: To serve ads, Google and its partners collect data like cookies and IPs. See Google's Privacy Policy.
  • With Service Providers: For example, website hosting providers that help operate our site.
  • Legal Compliance: If required by law or legal proceedings.
  • Business Transfers: If ownership of the site changes, data may be transferred under continued protection.

4. Cookies and Consent

Our site uses cookies and browser storage for functionality, interactivity, and advertising:

  • Essential Cookies: Required for navigation and basic functionality.
  • Advertising Cookies: Used by Google AdSense to deliver personalized ads.
  • Browser Storage (Local/Session): Used for saving preferences and map tool states (see Section 16).

Cookie Consent:

  • Visitors in the EEA and UK will see a cookie banner to consent to non-essential cookies, in compliance with GDPR and the ePrivacy Directive.
  • Consent may be changed anytime by clicking the "Privacy and cookie settings" link in the site's footer.
  • To opt out of personalized ads, visit Google Ads Settings or Network Advertising Initiative.

13. Notice for California Residents (CCPA)

If you are a California resident, you may opt out of the "sale" of personal data used for ad personalization by clicking the "Do Not Sell My Personal Information" link in our cookie banner or visiting Google Ad Settings. To request data access or deletion, email us at [email protected].

14. Children's Privacy

This site is not intended for children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal data from children. If you believe a child has submitted data, contact us so we can delete it.

15. Link Tracking and Redirects

We use a Short URL Generator to create shortened links and track their performance (e.g., links to game sites, YouTube, or tools shared on platforms like YouTube or social media). When a user clicks a shortened link, the tool logs anonymized data such as:

  • Anonymized IP address (e.g., 192.168.1.xxx or 2001:0db8:85a3:0000:0000:8a2e::, masked to protect privacy)
  • Browser and operating system
  • Timestamp and referring URL
  • Target link and destination URL

This data helps us understand which tools and links are used, optimize content, and detect spam or abuse. It is collected based on our legitimate interest to improve site functionality and security, using anonymized data to minimize privacy impact. No cookies or client-side trackers are used for this tracking.

16. Interactive Maps and Local Storage

Some interactive maps on gamingwithdaopa.ellatha.com allow users to place custom markers or toggle map features (e.g., marking locations as "found"). These interactions may be stored in your browser's Local Storage or Session Storage so your settings persist across visits.

This data is only stored locally in your browser and is not transmitted to our servers. It is used solely for user experience purposes and can be cleared anytime through your browser settings.
