Privacy Policy
Effective: 21 August 2026
KOTAMON DB is designed to work without an account. This policy explains the small amount of browser and hosting data involved when you use the site.
Collection tracker data
Card and foil checkmarks are stored in your browser under the local storage key kotamon-collection-v1. They are not sent to KOTAMON DB. Exporting a JSON backup or copying a missing-card list happens only when you press the corresponding button.
Optional analytics
Google Analytics 4 remains off until you choose “Accept analytics” in the privacy banner. If enabled, it may process page views, approximate location, device/browser information, referral data, and interactions according to Google’s services. The site does not send your collection checklist to analytics.
Your choice is stored locally under kotamon-consent-v1. You can change it by clearing site storage or using the button below.
Embedded video
YouTube video frames are not loaded automatically. They load only after you press a play button, at which point YouTube may receive your IP address, browser data, and the referring page under its own policies.
Hosting and security logs
Cloudflare hosts and protects the site. Like most hosting providers, it may process request metadata such as IP address, time, requested URL, user agent, and security signals to deliver the site, prevent abuse, and maintain reliability.
Advertising status
No advertising code is enabled in this release. If Google AdSense is enabled later, Google and approved advertising partners may place or read cookies, use web beacons, collect IP addresses or other device identifiers, and process visit data to serve, measure, limit, and protect advertising.
Before ad serving begins for visitors in regions that require it, the site will use a Google-certified consent management platform to provide vendor disclosures and collect the applicable choices. Personalized advertising will not be activated merely through the current analytics-only banner.
Data control and contact
You can remove local tracker and consent data through your browser’s site-storage controls. For privacy questions, email contact@kotamondb.wiki.
