How Abiotic Analysis Hub handles hosting data, contact submissions, performance measurement, cookies, and advertising.
2026/10/13
Abiotic Analysis Hub uses Google Analytics 4 to understand aggregate visits, page views, and interactions. Analytics storage is enabled by default for US visitors. Outside the US it is denied by default, including on guide pages; the existing European advertising consent message does not grant analytics storage. With analytics storage denied, Google may still receive cookieless measurement pings. Microsoft Clarity, PostHog, and affiliate tracking scripts remain disabled.
The hosting platform may process privacy-preserving performance measurements and standard request data needed to operate, secure, and diagnose the site.
The site displays Google AdSense advertising on guide detail pages. The
non-cookie advertising account verification meta tag and public ads.txt file
are also present.
Google and its advertising partners may process cookies, web beacons, IP addresses, device identifiers, and ad interaction data to serve ads, limit frequency, prevent fraud, and measure performance. Ad code is limited to guide detail pages and is not loaded on contact, privacy, terms, cookie, account, or other utility pages. For visitors in the EEA, UK, and Switzerland, Google's consent message provides options to consent, decline, or manage advertising choices.
Google's use of data is explained at How Google uses information from sites or apps that use our services. Users can manage ad personalization through Google Ads Settings and their browser or device controls.
The site may use essential browser storage or cookies for language, display preference, security, and basic navigation. Optional analytics or advertising storage is not described as essential.
The Cookie Policy describes analytics and advertising storage and browser controls. Consent is requested for advertising where applicable law requires it.
We limit processing to data needed to operate the guide archive:
We do not sell personal information. We do not intentionally place personally identifiable information in advertising requests.
Messages submitted through the Contact page are used to answer questions, evaluate corrections, and maintain an editorial record. Do not submit passwords, payment information, private account data, or third-party material you do not have permission to share.
Hosting and security logs are retained according to the provider's operational and security windows. Contact and correction messages are kept only as long as needed to respond, document a correction, resolve a dispute, or meet a legal obligation.
Depending on your jurisdiction, you may have the right to access, correct, delete, restrict, or object to processing of your personal data. Use the Contact page to make a request. We may need enough information to verify and locate the relevant record.
Guides link to external references such as the official Abiotic Factor Wiki and Steam. External sites operate under their own privacy policies, and this site does not control their data practices.
This site is not directed at children under 13 and does not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. Contact us if you believe such information was submitted so it can be removed.
Material changes are published on this page with a revised date.
