PROTOCOL 01

Information this site does not collect directly

There is no account system, profile, purchase flow, comment box, newsletter signup, or form on this version of the site. Security 51 Wiki does not ask for your name, email address, payment information, gameplay save, or other personal submission.

No analytics product is configured. The site does not use Google Analytics or maintain a first-party behavioral profile of individual readers.

PROTOCOL 02

Hosting and ordinary request data

Like most websites, the hosting and network providers that deliver the pages may process ordinary technical request data such as an IP address, timestamp, requested URL, browser or device information, and security signals. That processing supports delivery, reliability, abuse prevention, and diagnostics at the infrastructure layer.

This site does not receive a user-facing dashboard of individual browsing profiles from an analytics product. Hosting-provider retention and security practices are governed by the provider's own terms and policies.

PROTOCOL 03

Advertising, third-party requests, and cookies

On eligible pages at security51.online, the production monetization layer may load Adsterra Popunder, Social Bar, Native, and fixed-size Display formats. It may also present a clearly labeled sponsored link that opens only after a deliberate click. Loading provider code or following a sponsored link can send Adsterra and its delivery partners ordinary request information such as an IP address, timestamp, page URL or referrer, browser, device, approximate location, and advertising identifiers. Those third parties may also use cookies or similar storage under their own policies.

Advertising is disabled on localhost, automated tests, Vercel preview hostnames, branch deployments, error pages, and this Privacy page. A diagnostic ad_debug mode shows placement intent without contacting the provider. Eligible guide, homepage, tool, and trust routes can contain multiple separated opportunities; the existing Google AdSense account metadata and Google ads.txt record remain for ownership review, but this mode does not instantiate Google ad units.

No consent-management platform is currently implemented, and the site does not represent consent as already granted. Consent and regional advertising requirements remain a follow-up before enabling Google-served advertising or any mode that requires a certified CMP.

PROTOCOL 04

External links and official media

Links to Steam, Alawar, Discord, YouTube, sponsored links, or other external destinations leave security51.online. Those services may collect data under their own privacy policies. Following a link is optional, and this site does not transmit a site account because no site account exists.

Official gameplay images are stored and served locally rather than hotlinked. The source URL is retained in a code-level provenance registry for attribution and maintenance; it does not track readers.

PROTOCOL 05

Changes and questions

This policy was updated August 24, 2026 to describe the current production advertising implementation. A later material change—such as enabling analytics, Google ad units, a form, accounts, or a consent platform—requires a matching policy update. The Contact page explains the current communication state without publishing an unverified address.
