PHDREAM Privacy Policy — What This Site Collects and Why
What This Privacy Policy Covers
This privacy policy describes what this site — a player guide about PHDREAM — collects about a visitor, and what it does with that. It has nothing to do with PHDREAM’s own account system, which sits behind PHDREAM’s own login and is governed by PHDREAM’s own privacy terms, not by anything published here. Reading this page tells you what this guide holds; it tells you nothing about what an operator’s cashier or account system records.
No Accounts, No Forms
This site runs no account system. There is no sign-up form, no comment box, no newsletter subscription and no contact form anywhere on it, which means there is no field here where a visitor types a name, an email address or a password. Nothing is asked for, so nothing of that kind is stored. A reader who wants to register a PHDREAM account is sent, through a clearly marked link, to PHDREAM’s own registration form — a form this site does not host, does not see submissions from, and does not control.
Hosting Logs
Like any site served over the web, this one runs on infrastructure that keeps standard server logs: the requesting IP address, the page requested, the time of the request and the browser’s user-agent string. That is a property of how web servers work, not a choice this site makes about a visitor specifically, and the same logging happens on almost every site on the internet. These logs exist for operating and securing the site — spotting an outage, or unusual traffic — and are not cross-referenced against any account, because this site has no accounts to cross-reference them against.
Cookies and Tracking
This site does not run advertising trackers, and it sets no tracking cookie of its own. The full detail of what a browser might still record — a font file cached locally, a setting a template stores client-side — is covered on the cookie policy rather than repeated here, since that page is the more complete answer to the question.
Referral Links
Links on this site that lead to PHDREAM’s own registration or login pages are referral links, and following one is how this site earns the fee described on the about page. Clicking a referral link sends standard referral information to PHDREAM’s own site, in the same way any link between two sites does; it does not send this site any information back about what happens after that click. What PHDREAM itself then collects is governed by PHDREAM’s own privacy terms, read directly from PHDREAM, not from this page.
Changes and Contact
Where this policy changes, the change is made directly to this page rather than announced by email, since this site holds no visitor’s email address to send one to. Questions about what this site does with hosting-log data are better addressed by the terms page, which sets out how this guide may be used more broadly.
