Privacy Policy
This policy matches what the pages actually load, checked 8 Nov 2026. The contact address is [email protected].
Default loading and how to turn it off
Google Analytics 4, Microsoft Clarity and Adsterra load as soon as a page opens. Consent Mode first defaults the three advertising signals to denied and analytics storage to granted, before any configuration. The site then applies its default-on choice for a first-time visitor and shows the banner with withdrawal controls. Pressing Reject turns all three off, removes the ad containers, records br_consent_v1 as denied for 180 days, and sends a Consent Mode update that denies analytics and ads. Accept keeps them on. The footer link “Cookie settings” opens the same choice again.
If the browser sends Global Privacy Control (GPC) or Do Not Track, the site treats that as Reject: it does not load Clarity or Adsterra, and it tells GA4 to deny analytics and advertising storage. Clearing site data deletes the stored choice immediately.
What loads, and the keys it writes
- Google Analytics 4 (Google Ireland Ltd / Google LLC, measurement ID
G-X7ZZXKPETS) measures page views, scroll and outbound clicks. Google documents_gaand_ga_*cookies, with a default expiry of 2 years. The property’s event retention setting has not been independently confirmed. It receives your IP address, user agent, page URL and approximate location. - Microsoft Clarity (Microsoft Corporation, project
zag3ohfp79) records anonymised session replays and heatmaps. It sets_clck(about 1 year),_clsk(about 1 day) andCLID(about 1 year), and may read Microsoft cookies such asMUID. Microsoft documents a 30-day retention period for recordings and up to 9 months for favorite recordings and a randomly selected sample; sensitive input is masked by default. - Adsterra (Adsterra Network, publisher
3403020) serves the Native Banner unit32159069and the Social Bar unit32159070. Its scripts and creative partners may use browser storage to cap frequency, count impressions and detect invalid traffic. Specific creative cookie names and retention vary by partner; this site has not established a fixed list or a retention period. It receives your IP address, user agent and the page URL, and may pass them to advertisers. - YouTube (Google) is not loaded with the page. Pressing a play button replaces the still image with an
youtube-nocookie.complayer; from that click Google may setVISITOR_INFO1_LIVE,YSCand related cookies and receive your IP address and the page URL. - The page itself, its styles, fonts and images are served from bizarrerun.com. There is no Google Fonts request and no other banner SDK, tag manager or traffic-mesh script on the page.

Why we process it, and your rights
For visitors in the EEA, UK and Switzerland we rely on your consent for analytics and advertising storage and access. The site records your banner choice; because it loads these services by default, you can withdraw at any time with Reject or “Cookie settings”, and withdrawal is as easy as giving consent. For visitors elsewhere we rely on our legitimate interest in measuring and funding a free guide, balanced against the controls above. Serving the page itself is our legitimate interest in publishing it.
You can ask for access, correction, deletion, restriction or a copy of the data we hold about you, and you can object to processing. Email [email protected]. You also have the right to complain to your local data-protection authority. We do not sell personal information.
Advertising choices and opt-outs
Adsterra and its partners may use your data for personalised advertising. You can opt out of personalised ads at Google Ads Settings, Digital Advertising Alliance opt-out, Your Online Choices, or the Network Advertising Initiative at optout.networkadvertising.org. Adsterra’s own privacy policy is at adsterra.com/privacy-policy. Opting out of personalised ads does not stop ads; it makes them less relevant.
Google’s privacy policy is at policies.google.com/privacy and Microsoft’s at privacy.microsoft.com. Their cookies are controlled by them, not by this site.
Changes
Changes to this policy are posted on this page with a new date. The date in the page metadata is the last edit. If a new third party is added, this page will name it, its purpose and its keys before the script ships.
