Plain-Language Summary (What You Need to Know)

Here is the short version of how your privacy works on SpruceBlitz (spruceblitz.xyz), written so anyone—whether you are a teenager checking out a game guide or a parent reviewing this page—can understand it right away:

Nothing is stored on your device: We do not use cookies, local storage, analytics scripts, ad trackers, or third-party requests. We do not build profiles about you or follow you across the web.
No accounts or sign-ups here: You never have to create an account, type in your name, or pay anything to read our range briefings.
Standard server logs only: Like almost every website on the internet, our hosting server automatically notes basic connection details (such as your IP address and which page you opened) for a short time so it can deliver the page to your screen and block cyberattacks.
Emails are only used to reply: If you choose to send us an email, we only use your message and email address to write back to you, and then we delete it. If you are under 13 (or under 14 in Quebec), please ask a parent or guardian before emailing us.
External games have their own rules: When you click a button to visit an official game website, you leave SpruceBlitz. Those game sites have their own privacy policies and data practices.

2. No Cookies, No Analytics, No Tracking & No Device Storage

SpruceBlitz is engineered to run completely without client-side tracking or third-party data harvesting:

No Cookies or Device Storage: We do not set HTTP cookies, browser local storage, session storage, or indexed databases on your computer, phone, or tablet. Nothing is stored on your device when you visit or browse our pages.
No Analytics or Behavioural Tracking: We do not use Google Analytics, tracking pixels, session recorders, heatmaps, or browser fingerprinting tools.
No Third-Party Network Requests: All fonts, stylesheets, illustrations, and video assets on SpruceBlitz are self-hosted on our own domain. Loading a page on SpruceBlitz never triggers background requests to ad networks, social media widgets, or external font servers.

3. Server Logs & Hosting Infrastructure

When your browser requests a page or picture from SpruceBlitz, our web server automatically records a standard technical log entry. Here are the exact details of how server logs work:

What Server Logs Record: We keep no visitor logs of our own. To deliver and protect the site, Cloudflare processes technical request data: IP address, time of the request, the page requested, and browser and device type.
Why They Are Recorded: Strictly to deliver the website’s pages and images to your browser, maintain technical stability, diagnose server errors, and protect the site against automated abuse or security threats.
How Long They Are Kept: We keep no server logs. Cloudflare keeps request data only for as long as its privacy policy (cloudflare.com/privacypolicy) sets out for security and network operations., after which they are automatically overwritten or permanently deleted.
Hosting Provider: Cloudflare, Inc., 101 Townsend Street, San Francisco, CA 94107, USA. The site is delivered from Cloudflare's global network, including data centres outside the UK and Canada; Cloudflare is certified under the EU-U.S. Data Privacy Framework and its UK Extension.
Processing Outside Quebec or Canada: Depending on the network routing and infrastructure of Cloudflare, Inc., 101 Townsend Street, San Francisco, CA 94107, USA. The site is delivered from Cloudflare's global network, including data centres outside the UK and Canada; Cloudflare is certified under the EU-U.S. Data Privacy Framework and its UK Extension., technical server logs may be processed or stored on servers located outside your province (including outside Quebec) or outside Canada. Where technical data is processed outside Canada or Quebec, it may be subject to the laws of that jurisdiction and accessible to courts, law enforcement, or national security authorities there.

We never use server logs to identify individual visitors, combine log entries with other datasets, or market to anyone.

4. Emails You Choose to Send & Guidance for Young Visitors

How We Handle Your Emails

SpruceBlitz has no contact forms or comment sections. If you choose to write to us at [Contact email] with a question, correction, or privacy request, we receive your email address and whatever information you choose to include in your message. We use that information only to read and reply to your message. Once your inquiry is resolved and no further correspondence is needed, we permanently delete your email from our inbox and trash folders.

Notice for Visitors Under 13 (Under 14 in Quebec)

SpruceBlitz is written as an informational guide for general audiences (16 and older), and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If you are under 13 years old—or under 14 years old if you live in Quebec (in keeping with Quebec’s Law 25 consent rules for minors)—please ask a parent or legal guardian for permission before sending us an email, or ask them to write to us on your behalf. If a parent or guardian learns that a child has emailed us without permission, please contact our Privacy Officer at [Contact email] and we will delete the message immediately.

5. Outbound Links to Official Game Websites

SpruceBlitz is an independent guide. We do not embed third-party game iframes on our pages. Instead, each featured shooter includes a clearly marked Visit Official Site button that opens the game’s official website in a new browser tab.

When you follow an outbound link to an external game website (such as Bullet Force, DEADSHOT.io, Cryzen.io, BuildNow GG, SkillWarz, Kirka.io, Poxel.io, or Pixel Warfare), you leave SpruceBlitz. Each game publisher operates independently and has its own privacy policy, terms of service, cookie banners, account options, chat systems, and advertising or payment partners. We encourage you to read the privacy policy of any external game site you visit before creating an account or entering personal information there. For a quick breakdown of whether a game uses ads, optional accounts, or in-game chat, check the verified facts block on our Proving Grounds home page or in the Range Manual.
