Bg3.wiki will soon begin serving ads, and this page will be updated in accordance.

Bg3.wiki itself does not directly track users beyond the normal operations of a web server and MediaWiki:

  1. Web requests (page visits, and the loading of related resources such as CSS or JavaScript code, images, etc.) may be logged in the private server logs. This includes the following information: time and date of the request, IP address from which the request originates, the page or resource that was accessed, the "user-agent" HTTP header sent by the visitor's device, and the "referrer" HTTP header sent by the visitor's device. These logs are usually kept for up to a month.
  2. Creating or editing pages, and uploading files, results in the public logging of the action on the associated History page of the relevant page or file, as is standard practice with MediaWiki. This public log contains the user name (if logged in) or IP address (if not logged in) of the user, and the time and date on which the action took place. These public logs are kept indefinitely.

Third-party cookies from ad servers

Ads appearing on bg3.wiki may be delivered to users by advertising partners, who may set cookies. These cookies allow the ad server to recognize your computer each time they send you an online advertisement to compile information about you or others who use your computer. This information allows ad networks to, among other things, deliver targeted advertisements that they believe will be of most interest to you.

The cookies served by the aforementioned third-party ad servers are not governed by this privacy policy, but by the privacy policy of the respective partners. If ads are being served, then a link to the privacy policy of said partners will appear under this paragraph. The link will open a page or popup which also allows you to change your privacy settings.
