Cookie Policy
Last updated: October 23, 2026
This cookie policy explains the single local preference used by the Ark Defenders website and the storage the site does not use. Ark Defenders is a mobile game, and this website is the public guide to that phone game. The studio address is 63 Crown St, Woolloomooloo NSW 2011, Australia. Questions can be sent to [email protected] or made by telephone at +61430574888 during support hours, Monday to Friday, 9 AM to 6 PM Sydney time. A cookie is a small file a website can store on a device. This website does not set that kind of file for advertising, and it does not run an analytics script. Instead, the browser keeps one local storage preference so the cookie notice is not repeated after you accept it. The value does not travel to Ark Defenders when it is saved, and it is not used to recognize you on other websites or inside the mobile game. If you never accept the notice, it can appear again on a later visit. Pages about Amiya, Operators, and tactical battles can be read either way. The notice belongs to this website. Accepting it does not turn on advertising measurement and it does not install the mobile game. Statistics and marketing storage are described here so a visitor can see that this static website does not use them. Clearing the notice flag does not delete a support email already sent. Those records are covered by the privacy policy on this website. If a later version of the website stores anything else, this page will name it and state whether it stays on the device. Reading about Rhodes Island, Amiya, and Operators does not require the notice to be accepted. The flag cannot sign a player into the mobile game, because this website does not create accounts or store passwords.
Current storage
| Name | Type | Purpose |
|---|---|---|
| northstar_cookie_notice | localStorage on your device. This is not a tracking cookie and it is not sent with each page request. The stored name is the name this website already uses, so a second preference is not created for the same choice. | Remembers that the visitor accepted the cookie notice. The value is a simple accepted flag. It does not store a name, email address, telephone number, Operator list, or payment data. You can remove it by clearing site data for this website. After removal, the notice can appear again. |
Analytics, the phone game, and other storage
No analytics script is included on this static website. Pages about the mobile game, Rhodes Island, squads, Auto-Deploy, and the base are ordinary documents. A strictly necessary cookie would be required for a page to load or for a security control. This website does not set that kind of cookie. A preference item remembers a choice. The notice flag is the only preference, and it lives in local storage rather than in a cookie file. A statistics item would count visits or build a report about how people move between pages. No such item is set. A marketing item would recognize a browser for advertising. No marketing item is set, and no social-media pixel is embedded. The Android storage permissions WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE and READ_EXTERNAL_STORAGE are not browser cookies. They may be requested by the mobile game so an update package can be saved and installed. This website cannot grant those phone permissions. Browser controls still belong to you. You can clear site data, block local storage, or use a private window. If local storage is blocked, the notice may appear on each visit, and the public pages remain readable. The preference remains until you clear it or the browser drops stored data for this site. Hosting the pages may create a short server log, which is not a cookie and is described in the privacy policy. Children are not asked to create an account on this website, because it has no account system and no public form. If a parent believes a child sent a support message, the parent may write to the support email and ask for that message to be deleted. Progress saved inside the mobile game stays on the phone and is separate from this website. The notice flag does not read that progress, an Operator roster, or a mission result. A player can read these cookie notes without installing Ark Defenders.
