Website analytics

We use Vercel Web Analytics and Speed Insights to understand aggregate visits and website performance. We do not send form contents or contact emails to analytics. We also record daily aggregate game views, store-link clicks, DM composer openings and successfully saved submissions in Supabase. These counts contain no form contents, emails or visitor identifiers. We honor Do Not Track and Global Privacy Control for optional event collection. For abuse prevention we temporarily keep keyed, daily IP hashes (not raw IP addresses) in rate-limit counters, normally for no more than two days. Vercel processes website requests as our hosting provider. See Vercel’s analytics privacy documentation.
