Privacy Policy

Last updated: June 24, 2026

LeonidaWire ("we", "us") operates leonidawire.com, an independent fan news site about Grand Theft Auto VI. This policy explains the limited information we handle when you visit.

Who we are

LeonidaWire is an independent, fan-run news website. We are not affiliated with Rockstar Games or Take-Two Interactive. You can reach us at contact@leonidawire.com.

Information we collect

  • We do not require you to create an account and we do not ask for personal information to read the site.
  • Like most websites, our hosting providers automatically process basic technical data (such as IP address, browser type and pages visited) to deliver and secure the site.
  • We keep anonymous, aggregate article view counts. These are not linked to your identity.

Local storage

We store small amounts of data in your browser (local storage) to remember your language preference and, for administrators, a login session. This stays on your device and is not used to track you.

Comments

When you post a comment, we store the text and the optional display name you provide. You do not need an account or email address to comment.

To prevent spam and abuse, we store an irreversible, salted SHA-256 hash of your IP address — never the raw IP. This hash cannot be used to identify you; it is used only to rate-limit and block abusive submissions, and it is automatically deleted after 90 days.

Cookies

We use only essential / functional storage and embedded YouTube videos. We do not use advertising or cross-site tracking cookies. See our Cookie Policy for details.

Third-party services

  • Hosting & delivery: Vercel
  • Database: Supabase
  • Video: YouTube (privacy-enhanced "nocookie" mode)
  • These providers process data under their own privacy policies.

Your rights

Depending on where you live (for example under the EU or UK GDPR), you may have rights to access, correct or delete personal data we hold about you. Because we collect almost no personal data from visitors, this usually does not apply — but you can contact us with any request.

Children

Our site is not directed at children under 13 (or the minimum age in your country), and we do not knowingly collect their data.

Changes

We may update this policy. The "Last updated" date above shows the latest revision.
