Privacy Notice

When you choose to subscribe, GTA6State stores your normalized email address, subscription status, signup source, consent record, consent-text version and record timestamps. Subscriber records are available only to authenticated CMS administrators; they are not publicly readable, editable or deletable.

This information is used only for important GTA 6 preload, launch-time and major update alerts.

Outbound email delivery is not active until GTA6State configures an email-delivery provider. We do not claim that stored subscriptions are currently being sent.

Checklist progress is stored under a versioned key in your browser’s local storage. It contains only checklist item identifiers, never an email address or other personal information. Resetting the checklist removes that local record.

GTA6State uses its existing Google Analytics configuration to measure page and feature usage. Launch events contain only non-personal values such as a tool name, checklist item identifier or completion percentage. Email addresses, names, form contents, authentication tokens and other personal data are never attached to these events.

Public content displays page-view totals recorded since September 6, 2026. A view is counted after the content is visible for at least two seconds. Repeat views of the same content by the same browser within thirty minutes are deduplicated. Trending lists use the current UTC day and the previous six days.

These figures measure views, not unique people or completed reads.

The counter stores a random identifier in your browser under gta6state:views:v1 for up to twenty-four hours, replacing it on a later counted visit. It contains no name or email address.

The server stores daily content totals and temporary keyed hashes for deduplication; it does not store the raw identifier or raw network address in those tables. Aggregate totals are retained to show the content’s history. Expired deduplication records are periodically removed as the counter receives requests.

This counter skips tracking when your browser sends Global Privacy Control or Do Not Track, or when browser storage is unavailable.

Clearing this local-storage entry removes the browser identifier. Rate limiting uses a keyed network-address digest held temporarily in server memory.

View-counter data is not sent to Google Analytics.

Subscription requests are validated on the server, protected by a honeypot and rate limited using a one-way keyed digest of the edge-provided network address. Raw email addresses and raw network addresses are not written to application analytics or subscription logs.
