Privacy Policy
How the independent Trench Decay guide handles information. Updated October 3, 2026.
Browsing and hosting
This site has no account system or contact forms. The hosting service receives the technical request information needed to deliver pages, such as your IP address and browser details, and may maintain operational or security logs. Optional analytics and third-party advertising are separate from those hosting requests.
Optional Google Analytics
Only the public production site at www.trenchdecay.shop can load Google Analytics 4, using measurement ID G-GK61KGH4HE. It loads only with analytics permission. Google can receive page addresses, page titles, referrer information and technical browser or device information, and use analytics cookies to recognize repeat visits. Local and preview deployments do not load this integration.
Optional Adsterra advertising
This site includes third-party advertising supplied through Adsterra. Adsterra and its advertising partners may use cookies or similar technologies and receive information such as your IP address, browser or device details, page address and referrer to deliver and measure advertisements. Advertising loads only after an advertising acceptance; an earlier analytics acceptance does not authorize it. The providers control their own processing and retention, and this site does not assert a retention period for their advertising data.
Your choices and cookies
Accept optional and Reject optional are equally available in the privacy notice and apply to both analytics and advertising. The two permissions are stored separately in this browser’s local storage until you change them or clear site data. If only an older analytics choice exists, it remains in effect and the notice asks for a new choice before advertising loads. Google Analytics cookies are configured for a 90-day lifetime, refreshed by visits while analytics is allowed; its advertising storage, advertising user data, advertising personalization and Google signals stay disabled, independently of Adsterra.
Changing or withdrawing consent
Use Privacy settings at the bottom of any page to change your choices. Reject optional withdraws both permissions and removes the advertising frame; if Google Analytics has loaded, it is disabled, this site’s analytics cookies are removed, and the page reloads to unload its script. Withdrawal does not delete information already sent to providers or remove cookies set on third-party domains; those cookies can be managed in your browser. If local storage is blocked, the choice still applies to the currently open page, but may be requested again after navigation or reload.
External services
Links to Roblox, Discord and YouTube open external services with their own privacy policies. Playing the official trailer loads a YouTube privacy-enhanced embed only after you press play, separately from the analytics and advertising choices. Google explains its processing in the Google privacy policy linked from our privacy notice. Adsterra and its advertising partners are separate third-party services.
