Cookie policy
Last updated: 2026-10-13
The short version
We set a small number of cookies. Some are required for the site to work at all: keeping you signed in, remembering your favorites. The rest measure how the site is used so we know which lineups and maps are worth the effort.
Our consent tool has not loaded in this browser, so there is nothing here to reopen. A content blocker or privacy extension is the usual cause. Your browser’s own cookie controls still decide everything on this page; see Controlling cookies yourself below.
Your choices
If you are in the European Economic Area, the United Kingdom, or Switzerland, a consent banner appears before anything non-essential is stored, and no analytics or advertising cookie is set until you accept it. Before you choose, Google Analytics may send anonymous, cookieless pings: a page was viewed, with no cookie and no identifier that could recognise you on a later visit. Declining is one click, is exactly as easy as accepting, and costs you no functionality. Your choice is kept for a year, and you can change it at any time.
Elsewhere, analytics cookies are set by default, as permitted by local law. You can still turn them off at any time, from Cookie settings wherever our consent tool loads, and from your browser’s own cookie controls anywhere. We honour either the same way.
Essential cookies
Always active. The site cannot function without them, so they are not part of the consent choice.
| Cookie | Provider | Purpose | Duration |
|---|---|---|---|
| nades_anonymous_id | nades.ai | A random id that lets you save up to 15 favorites before you have an account, so your loadout survives a refresh. It is not linked to any personal data, and the favorites it holds are deleted after 6 months without use. | 1 year |
| cookieyes-consent | CookieYes | Remembers the consent choices you made, so you are not asked again on every visit. Required for consent to work at all. | 1 year |
| __cf_bm | Cloudflare | Tells Cloudflare, which sits in front of the site, that your browser is a real browser and not an automated scraper. Required to reach the site at all. | 30 minutes |
| cf_clearance | Cloudflare | Set only if Cloudflare asked you to pass a security challenge, so you are not challenged again on every page. | Up to 1 year |
The sign-up, contact, and report forms are protected by Cloudflare Turnstile, a bot check. It runs inside its own Cloudflare frame and stores nothing on nades.ai; if it needs to remember that you passed, that is the cf_clearance cookie above.
Browser storage that is not a cookie
Also always active and never part of the consent choice: they keep you signed in and remember the settings you picked, and they stay in your browser.
| Cookie | Provider | Purpose | Duration |
|---|---|---|---|
| Firebase auth state | Firebase (Google) | Keeps you signed in between page loads. Stored by the Firebase sign-in library in your browser (IndexedDB), never sent as a cookie. | Until sign-out |
| nades_auth_hint | nades.ai | Remembers whether you were signed in last time, so the page loads the sign-in library only for signed-in visitors and does not flash the wrong header while sign-in loads. One character, nothing personal. | Until cleared |
| Display and player settings | nades.ai | Your own choices, kept so you do not make them again: the theme, the language, video settings (muted, volume, crosshair guides, input overlay), radar layout and settings, the sidebar and which panels you collapsed, and where you had scrolled. Stored only in your browser, never sent to us, and not part of the consent choice because nothing in them identifies you. | Until cleared |
Analytics cookies
Used only to understand aggregate usage. Not set until you consent in the EEA, the UK, and Switzerland; until then Google Analytics sends only the cookieless pings described above.
| Cookie | Provider | Purpose | Duration |
|---|---|---|---|
| _ga, _ga_* | Google Analytics | Counts visits and tells us which maps, lineups, and guides get used, so we know what to build next. We do not use it to build advertising profiles. | 2 years |
Advertising cookies
We do not serve advertising yet. When we do, the providers and their cookies will be listed here before any ad runs, they will sit in their own consent category, and they will stay off unless you accept that category. Personalised advertising is never enabled without your consent.
Controlling cookies yourself
Every major browser lets you block or delete cookies in its settings, and that works regardless of what you chose here. Be aware that blocking essential cookies will sign you out and lose your saved favorites.
