Privacy Policy
This policy explains what happens to your data when you visit gta6mapsize.com. The short version: we ask you for nothing, we set no cookies of our own, and the tracking that does happen comes from advertising and from video embeds you choose to play.

What we collect directly
Nothing. There is no account to create, no newsletter box, no comment form and no login. The site is a set of static pages with no database behind them, so there is nowhere for personal information to be stored even if you sent it. The one exception is email: if you write to us, we hold that message and your address for as long as it takes to deal with it, and we do not add you to any list.
What the server records
Like every web host, ours records standard request data: IP address, the page requested, the time, the referring page, and browser and device type. This is used to keep the site running and to defend it against abuse. It is not combined with anything else and is not used to build a profile of you.
Cookies
We set no cookies of our own design. Your language choice is part of the URL rather than something stored on your device. Every cookie you find on this site is placed by a third party named below: Google Analytics stores a pair of cookies on this domain to tell one visit from another, and the rest come from advertising.
Advertising and Google AdSense
This site is supported by advertising served through Google AdSense. When ads are shown, Google uses cookies, including the DoubleClick DART cookie, to serve ads based on your visits to this and other sites. Third-party vendors and ad networks may also serve ads here and may use their own cookies, web beacons and similar technologies to measure ad performance and to personalise what you see. We do not receive or store the data those partners collect, and we have no access to it. You can turn off personalised advertising in Google Ads Settings, and opt out of many other vendors through the industry pages linked at the bottom of this page. Blocking cookies in your browser also stops most of this and the site will still work normally.
Analytics
This site uses Google Analytics 4. It loads on every page and records which pages are opened, roughly where in the world the request came from, and what kind of device and browser made it, so we can see which parts of the map people actually use. It stores a pair of cookies on this domain to tell one visit from another. We use it to read totals, not to identify anyone, and we never combine it with anything else. Google processes that data under its own privacy policy, linked at the bottom of this page. Blocking analytics in your browser, or any content blocker, stops it and the site works normally without it.
Video embeds
The trailers on this site are hosted by YouTube. The still image for each trailer is loaded from YouTube’s image host when the page loads, so YouTube sees that request even if you never press play. No player and no YouTube cookie loads until you do press play, and the player then uses the youtube-nocookie.com domain. Once you press play, YouTube and Google receive the request and their own privacy policy applies to it.
Who else is involved
The site is served by a content delivery network, which handles the request logs described above and provides protection against attacks. Fonts are served from the same domain rather than from a third-party font service, and so is every image except the trailer stills described above, which come from YouTube’s image host. Beyond the advertising partners, Google Analytics and YouTube, no other service receives data about you from this site.
Your rights
If you are in the European Economic Area or the United Kingdom, the GDPR gives you the right to access, correct, delete, restrict or object to the processing of your personal data, and to withdraw consent for advertising personalisation at any time. If you are in California, the CCPA gives you the right to know what is collected and to opt out of its sale; we sell no personal information. Because we hold nothing about you beyond any email you send us, most requests are simple to satisfy. Write to the contact address below and say what you want done.
Children
This site is not aimed at children under 13 and we do not knowingly collect anything from them. GTA 6 is an adult game and the audience for a map of it is an adult one. If you believe a child has sent us personal information, write to us and it will be deleted.
Where your data goes
The site is served from edge locations worldwide, so a request is handled by whichever server is nearest to you. Advertising partners operate globally and may process data outside your country, under their own safeguards. Nothing is transferred by us beyond what is described here.
Changes to this policy
This policy will change as the site does, particularly if a new analytics or advertising partner is added. The last updated date at the top of this page always reflects the current version, and material changes will be described rather than slipped in quietly.
