Privacy policy

What this website actually loads, named one by one. The table names the direct services; ad creatives can also contact their demand partners.

Who holds the pages

The operator of airportcontraband.com publishes this guide. Contact [email protected]. The game studio is not the controller of this website. We do not run a user account system, a comment form, or a newsletter, so there is no profile to sign in to.

Default-on choice and the banner

A visitor with no stored choice is treated as granted: the page requests Google Analytics 4, Microsoft Clarity and the two Adsterra units on the first view, then shows the cookie banner to tell you so. The banner is notice and withdrawal, not a gate that blocks the guide. Pressing Reject writes a denial to ac_consent, switches the ad, analytics and recording loaders off, and reloads the page so no new request is made. That denial is remembered for 180 days. Pressing Accept keeps the services on. The footer's Cookie settings button opens the banner again at any time. Global Privacy Control or Do Not Track is treated as Reject.

The initial HTML does not include a script tag pointing at an analytics, recording or ad host. Those elements are created by this site's own loader after the page is parsed, which is why the page still paints when a vendor is slow. The only third-party frame that can appear without a new click is an ad creative inside the Adsterra units.

Google Analytics 4

GA4 uses measurement ID G-E6EK917PYD. It records the page address, referrer, approximate location derived from the request, device and browser type, and interaction events. Google documents regional limits on IP logging; we do not promise that all visitors worldwide have identical IP handling. See Google's regional data and privacy documentation. Consent Mode v2 starts with the three advertising signals denied and analytics_storage granted, and the first-visit path updates the ad signals to granted before the tag is created; Reject updates them to denied and prevents the loader from creating gtag.js on the reloaded page. ads_data_redaction is enabled. Google documents _ga and _ga_* as first-party cookies with a two-year default expiration. You can refuse measurement with the Google Analytics opt-out browser add-on or block the request in your browser.

Microsoft Clarity

Clarity project z5q0spv0tf records clicks, scroll depth and a session replay of the layout so we can see which parts of a guide are hard to use. Clarity masks text in form fields by default, and this site has no form that asks for personal data. Microsoft processes the recording under the Microsoft Privacy Statement. Pressing Reject stops the Clarity tag from being created on the next load; you can also block clarity.ms in your browser.

Adsterra advertising

Adsterra serves the in-flow Native Banner (unit 31999400) and the fixed Social Bar (unit 31999401) through bicea.org. Adsterra and its demand partners may set cookies or read device identifiers to cap frequency, measure clicks, and, where the law allows, personalize the creative. Adult advertising is switched off for this site. We declare publisher 3403020 in ads.txt. Use Reject to stop this site's Adsterra loader and remove the floating bar. Adsterra's own policy is at adsterra.com/privacy-policy.

YouTube

Some guide pages show a video poster. Nothing is requested from YouTube until you press that poster, and the player then uses the privacy-enhanced youtube-nocookie.com host. Once the player starts, Google may set YouTube cookies and receive your IP address and device information under the Google Privacy Policy. Playing a video is independent of the analytics and ad choice above; Reject does not block a player you deliberately start.

Legal basis, retention and your choices

The technical first-visit granted default starts processing before an explicit selection. It is not a record of an express Accept action: ac_consent is saved only when you choose Accept or Reject, or when GPC/DNT requests rejection. This page describes the implemented behavior and does not claim that a default setting is legally valid consent in every jurisdiction. The optional analytics, recording and advertising processing can be withdrawn with Reject, and the denial lasts 180 days. You can also clear site data for this origin, which deletes ac_consent and ac_socialbar_closed immediately. Browser cookie expiry and vendor-side retention are different things; Google, Microsoft and Adsterra control their own retention under the linked policies. Advertising opt-outs you can use regardless of this site: Google Ads Settings, Your Online Choices, the DAA opt-out, and the NAI opt-out.

Global Privacy Control and Do Not Track

If navigator.globalPrivacyControl is true, or the browser sends Do Not Track, the page stores denied, does not take the first-visit granted path, and does not create the analytics, recording or ad scripts. GPC is the stronger, machine-readable signal; Do Not Track is honoured here as well even though many browsers no longer expose it reliably.

Other processing

Mail you send to [email protected] is routed by Cloudflare Email Routing to our mail-hub Worker, stored in the mailbox, and mirrored to our Gmail inbox so we can read and reply. Cloudflare and Google process the message and its headers for that purpose. We keep correspondence while needed to handle the request and related records, then delete it. The host that serves the files may keep standard server logs (IP address, user agent, URL) for security. We do not sell personal information. You can ask for a copy or deletion of mail we hold about you by writing to the same address. You may lodge a complaint with your local data authority. We will post policy changes on this page and bump the date. The current date is 30 Oct 2026.

Questions people ask

Do you load ads and analytics before I choose?

Yes. With no stored choice the page treats you as granted and loads Google Analytics 4, Microsoft Clarity and both Adsterra units on the first view, then shows the banner to tell you. Reject is the switch that turns them off.

How do I turn ads and recordings off?

Press Reject in the cookie banner, or use Cookie settings in the footer. The choice is stored for 180 days under ac_consent, and the reloaded page does not create the GA4, Clarity or Adsterra scripts.

Which cookies does this site set itself?

None for tracking. It writes two localStorage keys, ac_consent and ac_socialbar_closed. The analytics, recording and ad cookies in the table are set by the named vendors.

Is adult advertising on?

No. Adult ads are switched off for this site, and only the Native Banner and Social Bar units are placed.
