Our commitment to data privacy, minimal logging, zero cross-site ad trackers, and client-side tool storage.

Privacy-First Architecture Commitment

Derpixon Discovery Hub is built on a privacy-respecting foundation. We do not sell user data, we do not deploy predatory third-party advertising networks, and our interactive animation tools run 100% locally in your browser.

1. Information We Do Not Collect

Unlike commercial ad-driven entertainment blogs, Derpixon Discovery Hub operates with strict data minimization principles:

  • No Cross-Site Ad Tracking: We do not embed third-party advertising cookies, retargeting pixels, or behavioral tracking beacons.
  • No Tool Input Scraping: Data entered into the Frame-Rate Calculator, Storyboard Planner, or Animation Checklist remains strictly in your client device’s memory and HTML5 localStorage.
  • No Mandatory User Accounts: All tools, guides, and discovery filters are accessible anonymously without registration or password creation.

2. Information We Collect Automatically

When you browse our website, our web servers and Content Delivery Network (Cloudflare) automatically collect standard technical access log entries necessary to deliver web pages securely and prevent malicious automated DDoS attacks. These records include:

  • Your Internet Protocol (IP) address (anonymized in log analytics)
  • Browser user-agent string and operating system architecture
  • Referring URL and requested page paths
  • Date, time, and HTTP status code of the server response

3. Local Browser Storage & Cookie Usage

We use minimal first-party cookies and modern HTML5 localStorage strictly for technical and user-experience functionality:

Storage Key Technology Purpose Duration
dh_advisory_dismissed_v1 localStorage Remembers when you dismiss the top 18+ content advisory notice Persistent until browser cache is cleared
dh_storyboard_shots_v1 localStorage Saves your draft storyboard beat sheet panels privately on your device Persistent until browser cache is cleared
dh_checklist_state_v1 localStorage Saves checked items in the 14-point animation critique audit Persistent until browser cache is cleared

4. Outbound Links to Third-Party Platforms

Our website contains outbound hyperlinks to external platforms including Newgrounds, YouTube, and X (Twitter). When you click an external link, you leave derpixon.org. External platforms operate under their own independent privacy notices, terms of service, and cookie policies. We encourage you to review their respective privacy practices before submitting personal information.

5. Data Rights Under GDPR and CCPA

If you are a resident of the European Economic Area (EEA), the United Kingdom, or California, you are entitled to statutory privacy rights regarding your personal data:

  • Right of Access & Portability: You have the right to request copies of any personal data we hold about you.
  • Right to Rectification & Erasure: You may request corrections to inaccurate records or erasure of personal information.
  • Right to Non-Discrimination: We will never deny services, charge different prices, or degrade quality if you exercise your privacy rights.
