Privacy Policy
Leonida Waypoint is a static guide site with no accounts. This page explains, in plain language, what information is involved when you use it — and, just as importantly, what is not.
What we collect
Very little, by design. Leonida Waypoint has no user accounts, no sign-up forms, no comments system and no checkout. We do not ask for your name, email address, password or payment details anywhere on the site, and you should never enter them here.
Like almost every website, the hosting that serves these pages keeps standard server logs for security and reliability — typically your IP address, the page requested, the time, and basic browser information. Those logs are generated by the hosting infrastructure, are used to keep the site online and secure, and are not used by us to build profiles of individual visitors or to track your progress through any guide, map or checklist.
If you email us at [email protected], we receive the contents of your email and the address you sent it from. That correspondence is kept only as long as it is needed to handle your correction, tip or enquiry, and it is never sold or passed to marketers. The name or username you ask to be credited under, when a tip is used and credited, is published only in the way described on the Contact page.
Your progress is never collected
This is the most important section of this policy. The interactive features on Leonida Waypoint — the map's found pins, guide checklists and tickable steps, and the 100% tracker — do not send your progress anywhere. There is no server-side tracking of your checklist, map or tracker state, no database of what you have completed, and no account it could be attached to even if there were.
Instead, that state is stored only in your own browser, on your own device, using local storage. It never leaves the device. We cannot see it, recover it, transfer it or delete it for you, because we never hold a copy of it. See the Local storage section below for the keys used and how to clear them yourself.
Local storage
Local storage is a small store built into your web browser that a site can use to remember things on your device between visits. Leonida Waypoint uses it for one purpose only: remembering your own progress so a guide or map is in the same state when you come back to it.
The keys the site uses follow these patterns: lw-map-found for pins you have marked as found on the map, lw-checklist-* for checklist panels, and lw-steps-* for tickable step lists in guides, along with equivalent keys for tracker sections. The values stored are simply lists of which items you have ticked — nothing about who you are.
You stay in control of this data. Every surface that stores state provides a reset control that clears its own keys, and you can remove everything at any time by clearing site data for leonidawaypoint.com in your browser's settings. Clearing local storage will reset your map, checklists and tracker to zero. Using a different browser or device means starting fresh there, because nothing is synced.
Cookies
Leonida Waypoint does not set its own tracking or advertising cookies. The site's own features rely on local storage, described above, rather than cookies. Your browser may still handle ordinary technical cookies set by the hosting or content-delivery infrastructure that serves the pages, which are used for delivery and security rather than for following you around the web.
If analytics are added in future (see below), any cookies associated with them will be described in an updated version of this policy before or at the time they are introduced, and this page's updated date will change accordingly.
Analytics — not yet active
As of the date at the top of this page, no analytics service is active on Leonida Waypoint. The pages contain a placeholder note for Google Analytics 4 (GA4) and Microsoft Clarity, but no tracking IDs have been issued and no analytics scripts are running, so neither service currently receives any data about your visit from this site.
If analytics are activated later, they will be used in aggregate to understand which guides are useful and how the site performs — for example, which pages are visited and in roughly what numbers — not to identify individual visitors. This policy will be updated to name the active services and describe what they collect at that point. Our Disclosure page will be updated at the same time if anything about monetization changes alongside it.
Third parties and external links
Our guides link out to official and reference sources, including Rockstar Games, PlayStation, Xbox, Take-Two Interactive, the GTA Wiki and community hubs such as Reddit. When you follow a link to another site, that site's own privacy policy applies to anything you do there; we do not control third-party sites and are not responsible for their practices. Fonts on this site are loaded from Google Fonts, which serves the font files your browser requests.
We do not sell personal information, because the site is built to hold almost none. We do not run a mailing list, and there is no advertising network currently serving personalized ads on this site.
Children
Grand Theft Auto VI is a mature-rated game and this guide site is written for adult players. The site is not directed at children, and because it collects no accounts or personal profiles, it does not knowingly collect personal information from children.
Changes to this policy
If how the site handles information changes — most plausibly if analytics are activated, or if an optional feature that handles data differently is ever added — this page will be revised, the "Last updated" date at the top will change, and the change will be described here in plain language rather than buried. Check back after major site changes if this matters to you.
Contact
Questions about this policy, or about information you have sent us by email, go to [email protected]. Because progress data lives only in your browser, we cannot look up, export or delete your map or tracker state for you — but the reset controls on each page, and your browser's clear-site-data option, put that fully in your own hands.
