Privacy Policy

Last updated 2026-07-26

This Privacy Policy explains how PalSphere (palsphere.app) handles information when you use the site. PalSphere is a fan-made Palworld database. We do not sell personal information.

Information we collect

Usage and device data. Standard web logs and analytics partners may receive IP address, browser type, pages viewed, and approximate location.
Google Analytics. We use Google Analytics 4 to count visits, sessions, and popular pages. It sets first-party cookies and sends usage data to Google. You can opt out with the Google Analytics opt-out add-on.
AI referral measurement. If you arrive from an AI chat or answer product (for example ChatGPT, Perplexity, Copilot, Gemini), we may log the referrer host, engine class, and landing path once per browser session to measure generative-engine traffic separately from classic search. We do not use that log to identify you.
Local browser storage. Features such as saved parties, tier lists, or ad-recovery preferences may store data in your browser (for example localStorage). That data stays on your device unless you clear it.
Messages you send us. If you email or message us, we keep what you send so we can respond.

Advertising

We use Adsterra and Google AdSense, with related Google advertising / consent tools, to show ads. These networks and their partners may use cookies or similar technologies to serve personalized or non-personalized ads based on your settings and applicable law. You can learn more and manage ad settings at Google Ads settings and Google Privacy Policy.

Amazon Associates and affiliate links

PalSphere is a participant in the Amazon Services LLC Associates Program, an affiliate advertising program designed to provide a means for sites to earn advertising fees by advertising and linking to Amazon.com. As an Amazon Associate we earn from qualifying purchases. Some banners on this site are paid links to products on Amazon. When you click one, Amazon may place or read cookies in your browser to attribute the purchase, under the Amazon Privacy Notice. We count views and clicks on these banners with an anonymous per-session identifier so we can tell which placements work. We never link that data to a named person and never see what you buy.

The “Host a Server” button and Shockbyte links in our server hosting guide are affiliate links. If you buy a Shockbyte plan through them, PalSphere earns a commission at no extra cost to you. Shockbyte's own privacy policy applies once you are on their site.

Cookies and similar technologies

Cookies and local storage may be used for essential site features, remembering preferences, measuring traffic, and advertising. You can control cookies through your browser settings. Blocking some cookies may affect ads or certain tools.

Third-party services

The site may load content or scripts from third parties such as Google (AdSense / Funding Choices), Amazon (affiliate product links), hosting providers, and optional support widgets (for example Ko-fi). Those services have their own privacy policies.

Children

PalSphere is a general-audience fan site. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If you believe a child has provided personal information, contact us and we will delete it.

Changes

We may update this policy as the site or advertising setup changes. The "Last updated" date at the top will change when we do.
