Privacy Policy

What this site measures, what it keeps in your browser, and how to change either at any time.

Who runs this site

Pal-World.net is a fan-made Palworld reference site run by one person. Every page is a static file: there are no accounts, no server of ours behind them, and the search box, the calculators and the team builder all run inside your browser.

© 2024-2026 Pal-World.net. Pal-World.net is not affiliated with Pocketpair. Palworld and all related assets are trademarks of Pocketpair, Inc.

What this site does not collect

Nothing here asks who you are. There is no sign-up, no newsletter, no comment box and no contact form, so there is no personal data for us to store, sell or lose.

The one thing measured is traffic — which pages are opened, roughly from where, on what kind of device — and that is what the next section is about.

Analytics

The site uses Google Analytics 4 (measurement ID G-0WE9LKZ6LV) to count page views. Google receives the page you opened, the page or search that sent you here, your browser and device type, and an approximate location derived from your IP address.

Analytics runs under Google Consent Mode v2. Until you accept, ad_storage, ad_user_data, ad_personalization and analytics_storage are all set to denied: Google stores no cookies, and what it receives is an anonymous ping that cannot be tied to a returning visitor.

Accepting lets Google Analytics write its own cookies (_ga and _ga_*) in your browser. They tell one browser from another, so a second visit is not counted as a second person. Google retains that data for 14 months.

You can change your answer at any time in the section below, and Google publishes a browser add-on that switches Analytics off on every site that uses it.

What is kept in your browser

The site remembers a handful of settings so it behaves the way you left it. All of them are written by the site into your own browser, none of them are sent anywhere, and none of them identify you.

KeyWhat it holds
themelocalStorageWhether you chose the light or the dark theme.
pal-world:teamlocalStorageThe party you build in the team builder, so it survives a reload.
pw.map.layers.*localStorageWhich marker layers you left switched on, per map.
pw.consentlocalStorageYour answer to the consent bar.
pw-asset-reloadsessionStorageA timestamp. After a new version is deployed, a stale tab uses it to reload itself once instead of rendering with files that no longer exist.

Clearing site data for pal-world.net in your browser removes every one of them, including your consent answer.

Advertising

The layout reserves space for ads, but none are served today — the slots stay empty until the site is accepted into an ad programme.

When that changes, the ad provider (Google AdSense) may set its own cookies to cap repeats and measure clicks. Personalised advertising is governed by the same ad_storage and ad_personalization signals as above, so a declined or unanswered consent bar means any ads you see are non-personalised. This page will name the provider and link to its terms before the first ad is served.

Hosting and server logs

The site is a set of static files served by Cloudflare Pages. Like any host, Cloudflare processes each request — IP address, user agent, URL and timestamp — to deliver the page and to keep the site standing under abuse. That is not covered by the consent choice, because it is not tracking: without it the page cannot reach you at all.

Nothing else is fetched from a third party while a page loads. The fonts are built into the site rather than requested from Google Fonts, and the map tiles, Pal art and item icons all come from this domain. Google Analytics is the only outside request a page makes.

Your choices and rights

If you are in the EEA, the UK or Switzerland, the GDPR gives you the right to ask what personal data is held about you and to have it corrected, deleted or handed over. There is no account here to look up: the only personal data in play is what Google Analytics processes while your consent stands, and withdrawing it stops that. The legal basis is your consent for analytics, and legitimate interest for the server logs that make delivery possible.

No personal information is sold or shared, including in the sense California law uses those words, because none of it reaches us in the first place. For anything this page does not answer, write to [email protected].

Your answer to the consent bar is stored under pw.consent in your own browser and nowhere else. Change it here at any time:

Children

This is a game reference site and is not directed at children under 13. It asks nobody for personal details, so there is nothing it could knowingly collect from a child.

Changes to this policy

The date at the top of this page moves whenever the policy changes, and the wording describes the site as it stood on that date. If the site ever starts collecting something it does not collect today, this page changes first.
