Privacy Policy

Introduction

This privacy policy applies from 2026-03-31T00:00:00.000+03:00. Legacy-of-dead.ie exists as an independent site run by three analytical researchers who connected at a coding meetup in County Mayo Ireland. We focus on dissecting slot game data like RTP shifts and paytable balances without offering any gambling or betting services. Our pages deliver raw analysis pulled from public sources and our own audits. This document outlines our approach to visitor data in plain terms. We keep things minimal since no accounts or transactions happen here. Read on for details about collection use sharing and your options. Questions go to [email protected].

Site visitors come mainly from Ireland and nearby but we welcome anyone interested in game math. No personal details required to browse. We built this to share weekend findings not to track or profile users aggressively. Policy covers the domain legacy-of-dead.ie and its subpages.

Information We Collect

Two categories exist: non-personal and personal data. Non-personal includes technical details logged automatically. Think IP address browser type operating system screen resolution language settings and pages viewed. Timestamps for visits also record. This helps us understand traffic patterns and fix bugs. For instance when you land on our Legacy of dead page these details capture to measure interest in that analysis.

Personal data collects only if you choose to provide it. Examples include email address name or message content sent via our contact form. No other forms exist. We never ask for payment info financial details or login credentials because none needed. Cookies store minimal info like session IDs or preferences if you set them. Full cookie section below covers this.

Location data derives from IP not GPS. We approximate country or region for analytics not precise tracking. Device identifiers like user agent strings log too. Aggregated stats publish occasionally like top pages or peak hours but never tied to individuals.

How We Collect Information

Collection happens passively through server logs and actively via forms. Server logs grab IP referrer URL user agent and response codes each request. Analytics tools like open-source Matomo run self-hosted to track visits without third-party sends. No Google Analytics or Facebook Pixel here.

Contact form uses basic HTML no CAPTCHA to keep it simple. Data posts to our server stored in a database. Email subscriptions if added later would use double opt-in but none active now. Cookies set on first visit for functionality.

Third-party embeds rare like math graphs from public CDNs but no trackers. HTTPS everywhere encrypts transmissions.

How We Use Your Information

Primary uses support site operation. Logs diagnose errors optimize load times and spot abuse like bots. Analytics reveal popular content so we prioritize updates. Contact data receives responses only never marketing blasts.

We analyze trends across visits. Average session length bounce rates or device splits inform content. Public reports aggregate this data stripping identifiers. No behavioral profiles build. If law requires we comply with requests.

Improvements stem from this. Slow pages get faster based on logs. High traffic topics expand. Your input via email shapes future posts directly.

Sharing Your Information

No selling renting or trading data occurs. Sharing limited to essential partners. Hosting provider sees logs for maintenance. Email service handles contact replies. Analytics self-hosted stays internal.

Legal obligations force disclosure sometimes. Court orders or regulators in Ireland EU demand compliance. Aggregated anonymized stats share publicly on site. No ad networks access raw data.

Business transfers if site sells unlikely pass data under same rules with notice.

Cookies and Similar Technologies
