Privacy Policy

Last updated: 2026-07-22

This Privacy Policy describes how Dewdrop Dynasty Wiki ("we", "us", or "our") collects, uses, and protects information when you visit our fan-made community wiki at dewdropdynasty.wiki. By using the wiki you agree to the data practices described in this policy. We are an unofficial, fan-run reference site — not affiliated with the developer Goodgis or any platform publisher — and we treat your privacy with the same care we would want for our own browsing data.

1. Information We Collect

We collect only the minimum information required to operate, secure, and improve the wiki. We never collect personal contact details, account credentials, payment information, or any data we do not need.

  • Automatically collected technical data (browser type, device family, operating system, screen resolution, anonymized IP-derived country) used for compatibility testing, layout debugging, and aggregate analytics.
  • First-party cookies and local storage entries used to remember your preferred theme (light or dark), your selected locale, and any UI preferences such as collapsed sidebar sections. No advertising cookies are placed by us.
  • We do not knowingly collect personally identifiable information such as your name, email address, mailing address, phone number, or government ID. If you contact us by email we only retain the message contents for as long as needed to respond.

2. How We Use Information

Data we collect is used strictly for the purposes listed below. We do not sell, rent, lease, or otherwise commercially share any visitor data with third parties.

  • Aggregate traffic analytics — total page views, popular guides, average session length, search-engine referral sources — used to prioritize content updates and identify broken pages.
  • Site performance monitoring — page load times, server response codes, build errors — used to keep the wiki fast, accessible, and free of broken links.
  • User preference storage — your theme, locale, sidebar collapsed state, and any locally toggled beta features — saved to your own browser via first-party storage so you do not need to reconfigure on every visit.

3. Third-Party Services

The wiki uses a small number of third-party services to operate. Each provider has its own privacy practices which govern the data sent to them. We list them below for transparency.

  • Google Analytics 4 — anonymized IP and aggregate behavior analytics; you may opt out via your browser's Do Not Track signal or any standard GA opt-out extension.
  • Steam widget embeds on the platform page may set cookies through the Steam storefront when you click an outbound link; refer to Steam's privacy policy for details.
  • Discord invite widgets render server metadata via Discord's public embed API; joining a server is governed by Discord's terms and privacy policy.

6. Children's Privacy

Dewdrop Dynasty Wiki is a general-audience reference site and we do not knowingly collect information from children under 13. If you believe a child has provided us personal information through an error, please contact us so we can promptly remove it from our records.

4. Your Data Rights

Depending on where you live you may have certain statutory rights about data collected about you. Because we collect almost nothing about you, most of these rights are straightforward to honor.

  • Opt out of analytics via the Global Privacy Control header or by sending us an opt-out request; we will record your preference against your anonymized segment.
  • Disable cookies via your browser settings or use the cookie banner controls; the wiki core content remains accessible with cookies disabled though some preferences will not persist.
  • Contact us to request a copy of any data tied to your visit (typically: anonymized analytics segments) and we will respond within thirty days.

5. Data Security

We protect the limited data we hold with HTTPS-only transport, scoped server access, automated dependency patching, and quarterly security reviews. No system is perfectly secure, but we work hard to keep the wiki and any visitor data safe from unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration, or destruction.

7. Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect new features, new third-party tools, or regulatory requirements. Material changes will be highlighted on the home page for at least thirty days before they take effect; the "Last updated" date at the top of this page always reflects the most recent revision.

8. Contact Us

Questions, concerns, or data requests? Reach out to our maintainers through the public contact form linked in the footer, or via the email address listed on our About page. We aim to reply within five business days.
