What we store when you vote

• A vote identifier. To enforce one vote per connection we need something stable to key on. We do not store your raw IP address: it is combined with a secret salt and hashed (HMAC-SHA-256), and only the truncated hash is written to the database. The hash cannot be turned back into an IP address.
• Which state you voted for, and when.
• A session cookie (hl_sid) containing a random identifier. It is strictly necessary for the one-vote-per-visitor rule and for the live online counter. It contains no personal information, is HTTP-only, and expires after one year.

Because none of this identifies you by name, we generally cannot link a vote back to a person even if asked to.

What we store when you buy a sponsorship

The title, description, logo URL and destination link you submit are published on the site — that is the point of the product — and are retained in the throne history even after you are displaced.

Card payments are not currently enabled on this installation, so no payment data is collected.

Third parties

• Sponsor logos are loaded directly from the sponsor's own domain, so that domain can see that your browser requested an image.

We do not use Google Analytics, advertising pixels, or any cross-site tracking, and we never sell data.

How long we keep things

• Session rows are deleted automatically after 24 hours of inactivity.
• A vote is kept until you move it or the site is reset.
• Published sponsorship records are kept indefinitely as part of the public throne history.

Your rights

Depending on where you live (GDPR in the EU/UK, KVKK in Türkiye, CCPA in California, and similar laws elsewhere) you may have the right to access, correct, delete, or restrict the processing of your personal data, and to lodge a complaint with your local supervisory authority.

To exercise any of these rights, email timurdemir3426@gmail.com. For sponsorship records, tell us the state and the link you published so we can find it. For votes, be aware that we hold no identifier that lets us locate your vote on request — the fastest way to remove it is to clear the site cookie, which also stops the vote being attributed to you.

Children

This site is not directed at children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect their data.
