This Privacy Policy explains how TCG Vault Lab (“we”, “us”, or “our”), operating the website tcgvaultlab.com (the “Site”), handles information when you visit. We keep things simple: TCG Vault Lab is a free, public reference tool. We do not require you to create an account, and we do not ask you to submit personal information to browse the Site.
By using the Site, you agree to the practices described in this policy.
Information we collect
Information you do not need to give us. You can browse, search, and use TCG Vault Lab without registering, logging in, or providing any personal details. We do not sell products and do not operate user accounts.
Information collected automatically. Like most websites, our hosting servers may automatically record standard technical data such as your IP address, browser type and version, device and operating system, referring pages, and the dates and times of requests. This information is used for security, diagnostics, and understanding overall Site performance.
Local browser storage. To improve your experience, the Site may store small preferences in your browser’s local storage — for example, remembering whether you chose the light or dark theme. This data stays on your device, is not sent to us, and can be cleared at any time from your browser settings.
Cookies and similar technologies
We may use cookies and similar technologies to keep the Site functioning and to understand how it is used. Cookies fall into a few categories:
- Essential — needed for the Site to work correctly.
- Analytics — help us understand aggregate, anonymised usage so we can improve the Site.
- Advertising — if we display ads, our advertising partners may set cookies to serve and measure ads.
You can control or delete cookies through your browser settings. Disabling some cookies may affect how parts of the Site work.
Third-party services
We rely on trusted third parties to operate and improve the Site. These may include:
- Analytics providers (for example, Google Analytics) to measure anonymous, aggregated usage.
- Advertising partners (for example, Google AdSense) if advertising is enabled. Third-party vendors, including Google, may use cookies to serve ads based on prior visits to this and other websites. You can learn about and opt out of personalised advertising through Google Ads Settings (https://adssettings.google.com) and https://www.aboutads.info.
- Hosting and content-delivery providers that deliver the Site to you.
- Image hosts: card images shown on the Site are referenced from third-party sources and remain the property of their respective owners.
Each third party operates under its own privacy policy, which we encourage you to review.
How we use information
We use the limited information described above to:
- operate, maintain, and secure the Site;
- diagnose technical problems and prevent abuse;
- understand aggregate usage and improve content and performance; and
- display and measure advertising, where applicable.
We do not sell your personal information.
Your rights and choices
Depending on where you live, you may have rights under laws such as the GDPR (EU/UK) or CCPA/CPRA (California), including the right to access, correct, or delete personal information, and to object to certain processing. Because we do not collect account-based personal data, most requests relate to cookies and analytics, which you can manage through your browser and the opt-out links above. To make a privacy request or ask a question, contact us via our Contact Us page.
Children’s privacy
TCG Vault Lab is a general-audience reference site and is not directed to children under the age of 13 (or the minimum age required in your country). We do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If you believe a child has provided personal information, please contact us and we will take appropriate steps.
Data retention
Automatically collected technical logs are retained only as long as needed for security and operational purposes, after which they are deleted or anonymised.
International visitors
The Site may be operated from, and information may be processed in, countries other than your own. By using the Site, you understand that your information may be processed in those locations.
Changes to this policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. When we do, we will revise the “Last updated” date above. Continued use of the Site after changes means you accept the updated policy.
