Information We Collect

BadgeNews is a static website. We do not have user accounts and we do not collect, store or process any personal information ourselves. There are no forms, no logins and no trackers on this site.

Cookies & Local Storage

We store a small number of preferences locally in your browser (using local storage): whether you dismissed the cookie notice or a notification banner, and whether you closed the stream panel. This data never leaves your device, is not transmitted to us or anyone else, and can be removed at any time by clearing your browser data for this site.

If you choose to load the embedded Twitch stream or chat, Twitch sets its own cookies and similar technologies inside the embed, governed by Twitch's own privacy policy (see below). We set no cookies of our own.

Third-Party Services

This website is hosted on Cloudflare Pages. Cloudflare may process technical data (such as IP addresses) as part of serving and protecting the website. See the Cloudflare Privacy Policy.

If you choose to load the embedded live stream or chat, content is loaded from Twitch, and Twitch's own privacy policy applies. Badge images are loaded from the official Twitch CDN. See the Twitch Privacy Notice.

Links to Other Sites

Our website may link to external sites that are not operated by us. Please be aware that we have no control over the content and practices of these sites, and cannot accept responsibility or liability for their respective privacy policies. After following a link to any third-party content, you should read their posted privacy policy information about how they collect and use personal information.

Changes to This Policy

At our discretion, we may change our privacy policy to reflect updates. If we decide to change this privacy policy, we will post the changes here at the same link by which you are accessing this privacy policy.
