Your deck browsing stays yours

What this site collects

Nothing that identifies you. There are no accounts and no sign-in. There are no ads. There is no tracking pixel, no session recording, and no advertising identifier. The site sets no cookies.

It does use Vercel Web Analytics to count page views — see below for exactly what that means.

Analytics

Aggregate traffic only, so we can tell which decks and pages people actually use. It is cookieless: Vercel derives a short-lived hash from the incoming request instead of storing an identifier on your device, and discards it after 24 hours. Nothing is stored in your browser, and there is no identifier that follows you to another site or across sessions.

Each page view records:

• the page path, the referring page, and a timestamp;
• approximate location from your IP — country, region, city — but not the IP address itself;
• device type, operating system, and browser, with versions.

Your searches are not sent. The deck search box puts what you type in the URL so the view is shareable, and that is the only free-text field on the site. The whole query string is stripped before any page view leaves your browser — see components/WebAnalytics.tsx. There are no custom events, so nothing else about what you clicked is recorded.

Favorites

Decks you save are written to your browser’s localStorage under a single key and never leave your device. They are not sent to a server, not associated with any identifier, and not readable by anyone else. Clearing your browser’s site data removes them.

Deck data

Deck pages are rendered on our server from a catalog that DeckBeacon computes from the official Clash Royale API. Your browser never talks to that backend — it receives finished pages, so no request from you reaches the catalog service and nothing about your browsing is recorded there.

Hosting and server logs

The site is served by a hosting provider that keeps standard, short-lived operational logs (IP address, user agent, requested URL) for delivery and abuse prevention. That is ordinary web-server behaviour, common to essentially every site, and DeckBeacon does not query, export, join, or build profiles from it.

Leaving the site

When you open a copy link, the request goes to Supercell’s own link.clashroyale.com handoff and then to the game. App-store links, when they exist, go to Apple and Google. Those destinations process the request under their own privacy policies, not this one.

Changes

If this site ever adds advertising, analytics, or accounts, this page will be updated before that change ships — not silently afterwards.
