Privacy & analytics

This website introduces Under the Euphoric Sound and links to our external project pages. There are no visitor accounts or payment forms on this site.

Google Analytics and your choice

We use Google Analytics to understand visits, referring websites and campaigns, page views, and clicks to community and game download destinations. Google may process browser, device, approximate location, and interaction information. Analytics uses cookies and browser identifiers to distinguish visits.

For visitors identified as being in the United States, analytics starts automatically unless you have turned it off or your browser sends Global Privacy Control or Do Not Track. For other countries, or when we cannot determine your region, analytics waits for you to select “Allow analytics.” A saved choice applies on later visits in the same browser. Browser privacy signals take precedence over an enabling choice.

You can turn analytics off or on using “Analytics preferences” in the footer of the main website or adult area. Turning it off stops future analytics collection and removes accessible Google Analytics cookies for this site. It does not delete data already received by Google. The site and download links remain usable with analytics off.

Your preference is stored locally in your browser. Clearing site data or using another browser resets it. We do not enable Google Signals, advertising personalization, or advertising storage through our site’s tag.

Regional preferences

Firebase Hosting uses the IP address of a request to estimate its country and serve the appropriate analytics setting. This happens through our Google hosting; we do not send your IP address to a separate geolocation provider or request your device’s precise location. VPNs and other network routing can affect the estimate. If the region check fails, analytics stays off until you allow it.

Links and downloads

When analytics is enabled, a project_link_click event records community destinations and link placements. A game_download_click event records the game version, platform, link placement, and Google Drive destination. This measures clicks, not completed downloads. Campaign parameters in links help identify the source of visits; we do not intentionally send arbitrary query-string values or URL fragments in our configured page location.

Trailer playback

The trailer player connects to YouTube only after you select “Load the official trailer.” Playback starts when you press Play inside the privacy-enhanced YouTube player; the video does not autoplay. YouTube may process player, playback, and device information under its own policies. When analytics is enabled, we record a trailer_play_request when you load the player; this does not confirm playback or a YouTube view.

Hosting & external destinations

Google hosting may process request information to serve and protect the website independently of optional analytics. Google Drive, Discord, Patreon, X, and other external destinations have their own privacy policies. Following a link takes you to that service.
