Privacy policy

This policy describes pokemonarena2d.xyz as published on 23 Oct 2026. The controller is the editorial desk that publishes this domain. Email: [email protected]. We do not run user accounts.

The site loads Google Analytics 4, Microsoft Clarity and Adsterra by default on the first page view. There is no accept gate: a visitor with no stored choice is treated as having granted these scripts. The cookie banner is a notice with Accept and Reject. Reject is the withdrawal path, and it is remembered for 180 days.

Default loading and how to withdraw

On a first visit the site writes a granted record and then shows the banner. Google Analytics 4, Microsoft Clarity and both Adsterra units (one in-page Native Banner and one floating Social Bar) are requested on that first view. Accept keeps the record granted and hides the banner. Reject rewrites the record as rejected, moves every Consent Mode signal to denied, and reloads the page to stop already-running vendor code. Later page views do not create Google Analytics, Clarity or Adsterra tags while the rejected record is valid. Changing a choice through Cookie settings also reloads the page.

The record lives for 180 days. After that it is treated as missing and the default-on path runs again. Cookie settings in the footer reopens the banner at any time, so the choice can be changed without clearing site data. If the browser sends Global Privacy Control (navigator.globalPrivacyControl === true), the site writes rejected on the first visit and does not take the default-on path.

The default granted value describes this site’s technical configuration, not an affirmative choice by you. No action on the banner is not proof of consent. Serving the guide and remembering a withdrawal are separate from optional analytics, replay and advertising. This notice does not certify that default loading meets every jurisdiction’s prior-consent requirements.

What actually loads

Google Analytics 4

Google Analytics 4 runs through gtag.js from googletagmanager.com and reports to google-analytics.com. The measurement ID is G-YR7VB2R5QN, under the operator’s game_websites account. Google may set _ga and _ga_YR7VB2R5QN (about 2 years) to distinguish visitors and sessions. The tag sends the page URL, referrer, IP-derived location, device and browser details, and interaction events such as scroll and outbound clicks.

Purpose: count page views and understand which guides are read. Google’s privacy policy is at https://policies.google.com/privacy. Reject sets analytics_storage to denied and window['ga-disable-G-YR7VB2R5QN'] to true, then reloads without creating a Google tag. Retention in the GA4 property is set in the Google Analytics admin.

Microsoft Clarity

Microsoft Clarity (project z236sds2bi) records session replays and heatmaps. Masking does not guarantee anonymity. The loader comes from www.clarity.ms and scripts.clarity.ms and reports to collection subdomains such as e.clarity.ms, k.clarity.ms and other *.clarity.ms hosts. Clarity may set the _clck cookie (about 1 year) and the _clsk cookie (about 1 day), and may keep a session identifier in browser storage. Data collected includes pages viewed, clicks, scroll depth, pointer movement and a device/browser profile.

Purpose: see where the guide is hard to read. Microsoft’s privacy statement is at https://privacy.microsoft.com/privacystatement. Reject calls Clarity’s consent API with denied storage and reloads without its tag.

Adsterra advertising

Adsterra (publisher 3403020) serves one in-page Native Banner (unit 31877791) and one floating Social Bar (unit 31877792), both delivered from bicea.org. Adsterra and its demand partners may set cookies or similar identifiers to cap frequency, measure clicks and choose a creative; those identifiers are set by the ad iframe and the delivery host, not by a first-party cookie of this site. The site itself stores only the two localStorage keys above. Adult ads are switched off for this website in the Adsterra panel.

Purpose: fund the guide. Adsterra’s privacy policy is at https://adsterra.com/privacy-policy/. You can opt out of personalized advertising at https://adssettings.google.com/ , https://www.youronlinechoices.eu/ , https://optout.networkadvertising.org/ and https://optout.aboutads.info/ . Reject removes both Adsterra tags and the floating bar and reloads to stop their running code. The site does not recreate them while the rejected record is valid.

YouTube trailer

The announcement trailer is shown as an image. Pressing play creates a frame to youtube-nocookie.com. Google may then process your IP address and set cookies under Google’s policy. Purpose: play that one video. Legal basis: the click. Until the click, the page does not request YouTube.

Other third parties

Default requests observed in the 23 Oct 2026 browser review were www.googletagmanager.com and www.google-analytics.com (Google Analytics 4), www.clarity.ms, scripts.clarity.ms and collection hosts under *.clarity.ms (Microsoft Clarity), and bicea.org (two Adsterra unit requests). Advertising delivery can vary; no ad creative iframe was returned during that local test. A play click adds www.youtube-nocookie.com and may request Google video assets from *.googlevideo.com, *.ytimg.com and Google service endpoints. Cloudflare serves the domain and may keep connection logs under its own policy. Fonts are Inter files bundled with the site, not a Google Fonts request. We do not install traffic-mesh, pop-under, push-notification or smartlink units.

Retention, basis, and rights

pa2d-consent is kept in your browser for 180 days, then ignored. pa2d-adbar-closed is kept until you clear site data. We do not receive a copy of either key on a server we operate. Cloudflare may keep connection logs, including IP address, under its own schedule as the network host. Google, Microsoft and Adsterra keep data under their own retention schedules, linked above.

The stored choice controls future requests; a default granted record is not evidence that you clicked Accept. The basis for serving the pages is our legitimate interest in publishing the guide. YouTube loads only after a play click. Global Privacy Control is honoured as an objection to analytics, replay and advertising; it does not prevent a video you explicitly choose to load.

You can ask for access, correction, deletion, restriction, or a copy of any message you sent us, and you can object to processing based on legitimate interest. Email [email protected]. We have no account database to export. You can also complain to your local data-protection authority.

Do Not Track is not exposed reliably to our script. Global Privacy Control is the signal we act on.
