Who Operates This Site
Sephiria Wiki is an independent, fan-made online publication operated by the Sephiria Wiki Editorial Team. It is not affiliated with TEAM HORAY, Steam, or Valve. For privacy questions or requests, email contact@sephiria.net.
Information That May Be Collected
When you visit a website, hosting and security infrastructure may process an IP address, request time, requested URL, response status, browser and device information, and referring page. While analytics is enabled, the services below may also process page views, navigation events, approximate location derived from an IP address, device characteristics, clicks, scrolling, session interactions, and cookies or similar browser storage.
Sephiria Wiki stores your analytics setting in local browser storage so the site can remember it. The record contains the settings version, whether analytics is allowed, and the time the setting was saved. It stays on that browser until you change the choice, clear site data, or the consent format is replaced.
Your Analytics Choices
Analytics are enabled by default. Google Analytics, Microsoft Clarity, and Plausible load unless you turn analytics off. Disabling analytics does not block the guides. You can reopen Privacy Settings from every page footer and turn analytics off or back on at any time.
Google Consent Mode v2 starts with analytics_storage granted. ad_storage, ad_user_data, and ad_personalization remain denied because this site does not run Google AdSense. Adsterra Display Banners are controlled by a separate public deployment switch rather than this analytics setting. Turning analytics off changes analytics storage to denied without changing Banner loading.
Current Services
| Service | Purpose and activation | Provider information |
|---|---|---|
| Google Analytics | Measures page use and navigation while analytics is enabled. Google may receive identifiers, device data, events, and IP-derived information under its terms. | Google Privacy Policy |
| Microsoft Clarity | Helps diagnose how pages are used through interaction and session measurements while analytics is enabled. Clarity may use cookies or similar technologies under Microsoft’s terms. | Microsoft Privacy Statement |
| Plausible | Provides aggregate traffic measurements while analytics is enabled, even when the configured deployment is designed without cross-site tracking cookies. | Plausible Data Policy |
| YouTube | Videos use privacy-enhanced youtube-nocookie.com embeds and load only after you activate a video facade. YouTube may then receive IP, device, referrer, playback, and account information under Google’s terms. | Google Privacy Policy |
Adsterra Display Advertising
Sephiria Wiki is configured for fixed-size Adsterra Display Banners on guide routes. Banner loading is disabled by default and occurs only when the public deployment switch and a size-specific public key are configured. When enabled, the browser requests Adsterra’s Banner script and may send the provider an IP address, request and referrer information, browser and device characteristics, and interactions needed to deliver, secure, and measure an advertisement.
The site loads at most one existing Banner placement per guide page and does not load Adsterra on About, Contact, Privacy, Terms, Editorial Policy, or Media Credits. Banner loading is independent of the analytics choice in Privacy Settings. Learn more in the Adsterra Privacy Policy.
EEA, UK, and Switzerland Rights
Analytics are enabled by default and can be disabled at any time through Privacy Settings. Where the GDPR or similar law applies, processing must rely on an applicable legal basis. Hosting and security logs may be processed for legitimate interests in delivering and protecting the site, subject to applicable balancing and legal requirements. Depending on your location, you may request access, correction, deletion, restriction, portability, or objection.
Email contact@sephiria.net to exercise a right. You may also complain to your local data protection authority. The Adsterra deployment switch is separate from the analytics choice described above.
United States State Privacy
Sephiria Wiki does not itself sell personal information. When Banner loading is enabled, Adsterra’s processing is described above and governed by its provider policy. If the site’s advertising practices constitute a sale, sharing, or targeted advertising under an applicable state law, the site will provide the required notice and opt-out before that activity begins.
Residents with applicable rights may request access, correction, deletion, or an appeal by emailing contact@sephiria.net with the subject “Do Not Sell or Share” or “Privacy request.” We will not discriminate for exercising an applicable privacy right.
Retention and Security
Analytics settings remain in your browser as described above. Contact messages are retained only as long as reasonably needed to answer the request, document a correction or rights decision, prevent abuse, and meet legal obligations. Analytics and infrastructure records are retained under the active provider settings and policies, only for as long as reasonably needed for measurement, reliability, security, or legal compliance.
No online service can guarantee absolute security. We limit the site’s own collection, provide a persistent control for analytics, and avoid accepting game asset or save-file uploads through this website.
Children, External Links, and Changes
This site is not directed to children under 13, and we do not knowingly request personal information from children. If you believe a child sent personal information to us, contact us so we can review and delete it where appropriate.
Guides link to Steam, TEAM HORAY, YouTube, Bilibili, community databases, and other independent sites. Their privacy practices apply after you follow a link or activate third-party content. We may revise this policy when services, laws, or advertising plans change. Material changes will receive a new “Last updated” date and, when appropriate, updated notice or privacy controls.
