Privacy, cookies, analytics and advertising

Microsoft Clarity

We use Microsoft Clarity to understand which guides help players and where a page is difficult to use. Before you choose, and after you reject, Clarity is instructed to use a cookieless mode and not write analytics cookies. If you accept, analytics storage can link page visits into a session. Clarity may process technical and interaction information such as device type, approximate location, clicks, scrolling, page navigation, heatmaps, and session recordings. Sensitive page content is masked by default; we do not intentionally send names, email addresses, or guide-correction messages.

You can reject analytics or change your choice later from Manage privacy choices in the footer. Learn more in the Microsoft Privacy Statement and Clarity consent guidance.

Adsterra advertising

Adsterra display banners load only after you choose Allow analytics & ads. We use responsive 728×90 or 320×50 banner units and do not enable Popunder, Social Bar, Smartlink, or adult ads. Adsterra and its advertising partners may process IP address, device and browser information, ad interactions, cookies, and similar identifiers to select, deliver, measure, and protect advertising.

Choosing Analytics only or Reject optional prevents this site from requesting Adsterra code. You can withdraw permission from the footer; the current ad is removed, although third parties may retain data already processed. See Adsterra's Privacy Policy and Cookie Policy.

Cookies and local storage

The site stores your choice in browser local storage under hllv-field-manual-analytics-consent. The value records only whether you accepted or rejected analytics and the consent version; it does not identify you or create an account. Until you choose, the site sends Clarity a denied consent signal. If you accept, Clarity may use its analytics storage, including Clarity cookies or similar identifiers, to connect visits into a session. Advertising storage stays denied.

If you reject or withdraw consent, the site sends Clarity a denied signal and attempts to remove analytics cookies that are readable by this site. Because Clarity is a third-party service, we cannot inspect or guarantee deletion of HttpOnly, third-party, or already-processed data held by Microsoft. Rejecting analytics still leaves the guides fully usable.

To change or withdraw your choice, use Manage privacy choices in the footer and select Reject optional. You can also clear this site’s local storage in your browser; the consent prompt will appear again when an ad slot is reached.

What the site does not use

HLLV Field Manual does not require an account, use analytics for advertising, or send guide content and correction emails to the analytics service. Rejecting analytics does not remove or limit access to the player references.
