Privacy policy

Last updated: July 28, 2026

This policy explains what information LootRadar stores, which outside services receive information, and the choices available to you. You can browse current deals without creating an account.

Information stored on your device

LootRadar uses browser storage for device-local features such as watchlist targets, filter choices, recommendation preferences, quiz status, and cached interface state. This information normally stays in that browser unless you sign in and choose a feature that supports synchronization.

You can remove local data by clearing site data for thelootradar.com in your browser. Doing so removes watchlists and preferences saved only on that device.

Optional account information

LootRadar uses Supabase for optional authentication and synchronized account features. If you request a sign-in link or create an account, Supabase processes your email address and authentication records. Signed-in features may store your selected budget, genres, store preferences, recommendation feedback, watched games, target prices, and notification choices under your account.

Authentication emails are for account access. They do not subscribe you to marketing messages.

Optional deal email

Target-price alerts, free-game alerts, and the weekly five-deal digest are three separate choices. Every category is off by default and starts only after you explicitly turn it on in your account. Turning one category on does not turn on another.

LootRadar uses Resend to deliver opted-in deal email. Resend receives the destination email address and ordinary delivery information needed to send and operate the message. LootRadar retains recent delivery records—including category, status, and date—so you can review alert history and so the service can avoid duplicate sends.

Free-game and deal-alert coverage is limited to LootRadar’s current CheapShark-derived quality snapshot; it is not a complete list of every PC game offer. Prices and availability can change after an alert is prepared, and the retailer page is authoritative.

Every deal message includes links to stop its category or all deal email. You can also turn categories off, turn off all deal email, or delete your account from the account dashboard. Account deletion removes synchronized preferences and delivery history associated with that account.

Analytics

LootRadar uses GoatCounter to understand aggregate visits and important site actions. Measurement may include the page visited, referring source, general device information, and anonymous events such as using search, saving a watchlist item, or opening a retailer link.

LootRadar does not send GoatCounter raw game-search text, email addresses, user IDs, or saved preference profiles. GoatCounter processes requests under its own privacy information.

Advertising and cookies

LootRadar may use Google AdSense to display and measure advertising. Google and its advertising partners may use cookies, device identifiers, IP addresses, and similar technologies for ad delivery, fraud prevention, frequency limits, measurement, and—where permitted—personalization.

Your available consent and personalization controls depend on your region and Google’s configured messages. Learn how Google uses information from partner sites in Google’s partner-sites policy, manage personalization through My Ad Center, or read Google’s privacy policy.

Searches, prices, and external stores

The homepage searches the cached LootRadar snapshot in your browser. The dedicated game-search page sends the title you enter to CheapShark so it can return matching listings. CheapShark also receives requests when LootRadar asks for current price context or sends you through its retailer redirect.

Retailers, CheapShark, and other linked sites apply their own privacy policies. LootRadar does not control the information they collect after you follow an external link.

Affiliate links

Retailer links route through the pricing provider, which may earn a commission from the store. LootRadar can measure that an outbound link was opened, but it does not receive your payment details and does not claim to observe every completed purchase.

Hosting and security

Hosting, content-delivery, security, and email providers may process ordinary request information—such as IP address, browser details, timestamps, and requested URLs—to deliver and protect the service. No internet service can promise absolute security.

Children’s privacy

LootRadar is not directed to children under 13, and it does not knowingly request personal information from them.
