Privacy & cookies.

01Who this notice is for

WDGuide is an independent game-guide network covering WARDOGS and HUNGER. This notice describes the information used by our website, planners and community features. For privacy questions or requests, contact the WDGuide operator through the existing Warkittens community and ask for a private conversation. Do not post account or payment details in public channels.

02Discord sign-in and your library

Signing in lets us associate saved loadouts, FOB plans and votes with your Discord user ID. We store that ID, a protected session identifier and its expiry, together with the plans, names, visibility settings and timestamps you submit. Our sign-in requests Discord’s identify permission; it does not request access to your messages or your Discord password. This processing provides the account features you request.

03Public plans and share links

A public library entry can be viewed by other visitors. Private entries are limited through the account system, but service operators and hosting providers may process them to operate the site. Copying a share link creates a separate stored snapshot: anyone with that link can open it, even if the original library entry is private. Changing or deleting the original does not revoke the snapshot. Do not put personal or sensitive information in plan names or shared content.

04Live reader count and analytics

The live reader count uses a random browser identifier and last-active time to avoid counting the same browser repeatedly. A reader stops counting after 90 seconds of inactivity; stale records are removed when the endpoint next receives activity. Cloudflare Web Analytics runs on wdguide.com to help us understand visits and page performance. Cloudflare describes this analytics service as cookieless. These measurements support our interest in maintaining and improving the guide. They are separate from Discord accounts.

05Advertising and consent

We are preparing to use Google AdSense to support the guide. Advertising is not active in this preview, and the sample placements do not load Google advertising code. When enabled, Google and its partners may use cookies, identifiers, IP addresses and browser information to deliver ads, measure their performance and prevent fraud. Where required, a Google consent message will let you consent, decline or manage your choices before consent-dependent advertising is used. You can reopen the options through Privacy choices in the footer. Declining advertising consent will not prevent you from using the guides or planners.

06Security and hosting

Website requests are processed by our hosting and network providers to deliver pages and protect the service. When creating a short share link, the application stores a hash derived from the connecting IP address, where available, to limit abuse. Hashing is not a guarantee of anonymity. We use this information for the legitimate interest of securing the service. The share record currently retains this value with its snapshot, although the rate limit only checks the preceding hour.

07How long information is kept

Sign-in sessions expire after 30 days and signing out invalidates the current session. Expired session records are cleaned during subsequent sign-ins. Saved plans and votes remain stored until removed; there is currently no automatic expiry for share snapshots. Browser preferences remain until cleared. Provider logs and analytics follow the providers’ retention arrangements. Contact us about deletion, including an unwanted share snapshot; copies already obtained by others cannot be recalled through WDGuide.

08External services

Map terrain tiles and official news can be requested from external providers. Those providers may receive your IP address and browser details. Steam and official game links have their own privacy practices. External video and donation embeds are disabled. Discord sign-in remains available for the WARDOGS library; its identify permission does not include access to your messages.

09Your choices and rights

You can browse guides without signing in, choose whether to make a library entry public, and clear site cookies or storage in your browser. Clearing login cookies signs you out; clearing planner storage can remove locally saved work. Subject to applicable law, you may request access, correction, deletion, restriction or portability of your personal data, and object to processing based on legitimate interests. Where processing relies on consent, you may withdraw it without affecting earlier lawful processing. You can complain to the Dutch Autoriteit Persoonsgegevens or your local data-protection authority.
