Scope and Site Operator
This Privacy Policy applies to animecardcollections.com and the catalog pages, comments, favorites, search, and privacy controls operated as Anime Card Collections. It does not govern a third-party game provider, advertiser, or external website simply because its content is embedded or linked from this site.
For questions or privacy requests concerning Anime Card Collections, use the contact address in the final section of this policy.
Information You Provide
When you email us, we process your email address, message, and any information you choose to include so we can review the inquiry, respond, protect rights, or maintain a record of the request.
When you submit a game comment, you provide a public display name and comment text. Do not include private contact details, account credentials, payment information, or sensitive personal information in a public comment.
Technical and Usage Information
Our hosting and security infrastructure may process an IP address, user-agent string, requested URL, referral information, timestamps, response status, and diagnostic events needed to deliver pages, prevent abuse, investigate errors, and protect the service.
For comment abuse prevention, the server derives a pseudonymous HMAC fingerprint from the request IP address and user-agent. The comment record stores that fingerprint with rate-limit and moderation evidence rather than storing the raw IP address or user-agent in the comment file. Hosting or security logs may separately process request data under their own operational retention controls.
Cookies
Anime Card Collections uses essential browser storage to remember the version, status, categories, and time of your privacy choice. If you enable Functional storage, the site may also keep your favorite-game identifiers in local storage. Rejecting or later disabling Functional storage removes the first-party favorites key controlled by this site.
Optional Analytics, Advertising, and Personalization categories begin disabled when no valid decision is stored. Optional integrations are permitted to load only after the matching choice is enabled. Changing a choice stops future optional loading and clears the corresponding first-party optional cookies or storage keys that Anime Card Collections controls.
When Google advertising is enabled, third-party vendors, including Google, may use cookies to serve ads based on a visitor's prior visits to this website or other websites. Google's advertising cookies allow Google and its partners to serve ads based on visits to Anime Card Collections and/or other sites. Those cookies may support ad delivery, frequency limits, measurement, fraud prevention, and personalization where permitted.
Third-Party Advertising
Anime Card Collections may use Google advertising services after the applicable Advertising consent is available. Google may place or read cookies, use advertising identifiers, and process device, browser, interaction, approximate location, and ad-performance signals to provide, secure, limit, and measure ads. Personalized advertising is used only where the required consent and regional controls are available; otherwise ads may be non-personalized or contextual.
No additional advertising network is identified in the current site configuration. If another vendor is added, this policy and the available privacy choices will be updated to identify that vendor before its technology is relied upon as described here.
Ads or promotional content displayed inside a separately operated game frame may be controlled by the game provider rather than Anime Card Collections. The provider's privacy notice and controls apply to its service.
User Choices and Opt-Out
Use Cookie Settings in the footer to accept all optional categories, reject non-essential categories, or save a custom selection. The panel can be reopened on any public page so you can change or withdraw a previous choice. Clearing this site's data in your browser may remove your consent record and saved favorites, causing the choice request to appear again.
You can also block or delete cookies through your browser and use Google Ads Settings to control personalized Google advertising. AboutAds provides an additional industry choice tool. Opting out of personalization does not necessarily remove all advertising; you may still receive non-personalized or contextual ads.
For visitors in the EEA, United Kingdom, or Switzerland, personalized Google advertising requires legally valid consent and a Google-certified consent management platform integrated with the IAB Transparency and Consent Framework where applicable. The custom Anime Card Collections preference panel is not presented as a substitute for that certified system.
Third-Party Games and External Links
Game pages may load or open software, images, and services hosted by third-party game providers. A provider can receive technical request information when your browser connects to its domain and may operate its own cookies, advertising, analytics, saved progress, purchases, or account systems.
Anime Card Collections privacy choices control optional technologies implemented by this site. They do not automatically control storage or processing inside a provider's separate domain or frame unless that provider recognizes the same consent signal. Review the provider's own privacy information before supplying information to an embedded or linked service.
Public Comments
Published comments display the name and text submitted by the visitor, a server-assigned avatar selected from this site's public avatar library, and the submission time. Commenters are not authenticated or represented as verified users.
Comments pass server-side field, size, same-origin, rate-limit, and content checks. A comment that triggers a safety or spam rule may remain pending and invisible until reviewed. We may reject or remove spam, abuse, personal information, infringing material, or content that violates our Terms.
To request review or removal of a comment, email us with the game URL, displayed name, and enough of the text to locate the record.
Sharing, Retention, and Security
We may make information available to hosting, security, email, game-service, analytics, or advertising providers when needed to operate a requested feature, protect the service, or use an optional category you enabled. We may also disclose information when required by law or when reasonably necessary to protect users, rights, and service integrity.
Information is retained only as long as reasonably needed for the purpose collected, including operating the site, moderating comments, enforcing rate limits, resolving disputes, protecting legal rights, and meeting applicable obligations. A published comment may remain until removed or no longer needed; support correspondence may be retained while an inquiry or related obligation remains active.
We use access controls, input validation, pseudonymous request fingerprints, rate limiting, and atomic comment-file updates as safeguards. No internet transmission or storage system can be guaranteed completely secure.
Children's Privacy
Anime Card Collections is a general-audience catalog and is not designed to knowingly collect personal information from children. Visitors should not place personal information in public comments. If you believe a child submitted personal information through a feature we control, contact us with the relevant page and enough detail to locate the record.
Regional Rights and International Processing
Depending on where you live, you may have rights to request access, correction, deletion, restriction, objection, portability, or withdrawal of consent, and to complain to an appropriate privacy authority. These rights can be subject to identity verification, legal exceptions, and the type of information involved.
The site and its service providers may process information in countries other than your own. Privacy laws and government access rules can differ across those locations. Where applicable, service providers and operators are expected to use legally recognized safeguards for cross-border processing.
Policy Changes
We may update this Privacy Policy when site features, vendors, catalog operations, or legal requirements change. The Last updated date identifies the current version. A new consent decision may be requested when a change materially affects optional browser technologies or privacy choices.
Privacy Contact
For privacy questions, consent concerns, regional-rights requests, or comment-removal requests, email us with enough detail to identify the relevant interaction. Do not send sensitive identity documents unless we specifically explain why verification is necessary.
