Privacy & storage
SFStats uses storage to provide requested features and, only when you choose them, optional browser analytics, history and embedded media. You can browse without enabling optional features.
Requested features and security
Saved fighters, chart drawings, replay request keys and interface choices are stored on your device when you use those features, until you remove them or clear site data. The sfstats_feedback cookie reconnects a requested feedback conversation for up to one year; the administrator session lasts seven days. The sfstats_privacy cookie records only your choices and their date for 180 days. Hosting and Cloudflare also process network information to deliver and protect the site; network-level traffic statistics are separate from optional browser analytics.
Optional history
With your permission, recent searches and previously guessed matches are stored in this browser until you disable history or clear site data. Disabling history removes those entries. Favorites and replay access keys are kept so requested features continue working.
YouTube and Twitch
Before permission, SFStats shows its own placeholder and does not load the provider’s player. Once allowed, the provider receives network and device/page information and may store or read information on your device. YouTube uses privacy-enhanced mode; this does not mean no data is shared. Providers may process data outside your country, including outside the EEA, under their own privacy policies. Withdrawing permission unloads the player and prevents further loading; it cannot undo data already received or erase provider-owned cookies. Those can be managed through the provider or your browser.
Optional browser analytics
When enabled, Cloudflare Web Analytics measures visits, page URLs, referrers, browser information and performance. Cloudflare describes this service as using no cookies, localStorage or individual fingerprinting. SFStats also records event-type and source counts, without adding IP hashes, search text or player IDs to new analytics events. These measurements help improve the site. Rejecting optional analytics stops these browser measurements; it does not disable Cloudflare’s network-level traffic and security statistics.
Questions and your data
Use the Contact page for privacy questions or requests about access, correction or deletion of your data. You may also contact your local data protection authority. Public fighter-data sources, feedback and retention are explained on the Data page. Clearing browser storage does not delete records already held by SFStats or external providers.
