Cookies &
browser storage.
World One’s public pages do not currently set analytics or advertising cookies. The game uses browser storage for saved sign-in details and preferences. This page explains the current implementation.
Last updated: 28 October 2026.
Website statistics
The public website records aggregate counts such as page views, clicks on Join the alpha, form starts, submit attempts and errors. A broad referral category, such as Google or ChatGPT, can be derived from the referring website. Full referring URLs are not stored in these counters.
This measurement uses no analytics cookies, browser storage identifiers, advertising pixels or unique visitor IDs. The counters do not contain names, email addresses or persistent IP records. They count events rather than unique people and are retained for up to 180 days. The browser statistics script respects Do Not Track and Global Privacy Control.
A successful alpha application also produces an aggregate server-side operational count after it has been saved. Application records are separate from the statistics: the name and email you submit are used to manage and reply to your application, as explained beside the form.
Browser storage currently used
Local storage stays in your browser until removed, unless the application gives it an expiry. Session storage is normally cleared when the tab or browser session ends. These technologies differ from HTTP cookies, but can still store information on your device.

Character profiles
Your character name, level, vocation, arena rating and rank, chosen picture and profile comment are visible to visitors using player search. Your death history and Arena Marks are visible only after signing in to your own account. Profile pictures are resized and re-encoded before publication; image metadata is removed.
Managing storage
You can inspect or remove World One’s stored data through your browser’s site settings. Clearing game storage can sign you out and reset local preferences. It does not delete your account or server-saved progress.
What Got it means
Got it only dismisses this information notice and remembers that action for 180 days. It does not enable advertising, grant consent to future trackers or change how the current website counters work. If cookies or tracking services requiring permission are added, they will need their own appropriate controls before activation.
