HOOD WARFAREHood Warfare privacy policy
This policy describes the data used by this browser game. Last updated October 13, 2026.
Anonymous play and essential session storage
You can play without creating an account or supplying an email address. Online play uses an HttpOnly session cookie called hw_session, lasting up to 30 days, to recognize the browser joining a room and protect host actions. The cookie is an essential game session credential. Its value is not displayed publicly. Clearing site data creates a new identity and can remove your ability to manage earlier rooms or scores.
Local settings and practice history
Your chosen display name, character appearance, and recent local practice results may be saved in local storage in this browser. This data does not automatically synchronize across devices. You can remove it using your browser’s site-data settings.
Online rooms and public results
Your display name, character, team, and match performance are visible to other players in your room. Avoid using a real name or other personal information as your alias. The server processes movement and action inputs to run online matches. Completed matches store the alias, a one-way session-derived identifier, kills, deaths, captures, objective time, score, mode, and completion time in Cloudflare D1. Public and solo result totals can be shown on leaderboards. Custom matches are excluded from those leaderboards. Match summaries are stored privately in Cloudflare R2.
Minimal site and game analytics
The site automatically records limited page and game events, including the route name, device category, mode, lobby visits, queue starts, match starts and endings, and connection errors. An event ID prevents duplicate records; it is not a persistent analytics visitor ID. Our analytics records do not include names, session cookies, keystrokes, message content, IP addresses, full URLs, query strings, or browsing activity on other sites. There is no advertising or session-replay tracker in this release. Analytics failures do not block play.
Google Analytics
We also use a dedicated Google Analytics 4 property to understand page visits and game events. The tag runs with analytics and advertising storage denied, and sends limited cookieless measurement signals under Google’s consent-mode behavior. We send the route without query strings, the page title, mode, and event name; we do not send aliases, session cookies, or invite codes. Google may process network and device information under its own policies. These measurements support game operation and improvement.
Hosting and security
Cloudflare processes network information such as IP addresses, request headers, and diagnostic logs to deliver and secure the service under its own policies. This operational processing is separate from the minimal event records described above. We use collected game information to operate matches, troubleshoot failures, and improve the service. We do not sell player information.
Retention and your choices
Anonymous analytics records are retained for up to 90 days. Completed match summaries and score records are normally retained for up to one year, unless removed earlier to operate or improve the service. Clearing browser storage removes local data, but does not by itself delete server-side results. For access, correction, or deletion requests, contact lijing123lll@gmail.com and describe the alias and relevant matches without sending session cookies. We may need enough information to establish that a request concerns your data.
Contact and updates
For privacy questions, email lijing123lll@gmail.com. We update this policy when the data or services used by the game change. The date above identifies this version.
