What we collect
Server logs. Cloudflare hosts the site and processes the standard request metadata of every page view (IP, user agent, URL, timestamp, referrer) for routing, caching, abuse prevention, and an aggregate dashboard (page views, country, browser family - no per-visitor profiles). We don’t store these logs ourselves.
Google Analytics 4. GA runs in Google’s Consent Mode v2 with IP anonymisation. If you’re in the EU/EEA or UK, analytics is denied by default and a banner asks for your consent before any analytics cookie is set - Accept all enables full analytics, Decline keeps the cookieless mode (no cookies, no IDs, only an anonymous page-view ping). Outside those regions, analytics is enabled by default; you can opt out at any time via the Cookie preferences link in the footer. With consent granted, GA collects aggregate, anonymised data (pages read, country, browser/OS family, screen size, referrer) and stores a couple of analytics cookies retained for 14 months by default.
Functional storage. One localStorage entry, set by the cookie banner only. Not shared with third parties.
| Name | Type | Purpose | Lifetime |
|---|---|---|---|
cookie_consent_v1 | localStorage | Remembers your consent decision | persistent |
Contributions. Payment is handled entirely by the provider you choose - we don’t see or store card or bank details:
Contributions are voluntary and non-refundable unless required by law.

The wiki content shown on FAQ / Requirements / Troubleshooting / Power-User-Settings / Experimental is fetched at build time from the GitHub wiki - GitHub doesn’t see your visit.
Your rights
If you are in the EU/EEA, UK, Switzerland, or another jurisdiction with similar rules, you have the right to access, correct, delete, restrict, object to, or port any personal data we hold about you, and to withdraw consent (use the “Cookie preferences” link in the footer to revoke analytics consent at any time). You can also lodge a complaint with your national data-protection authority.
In practice the site collects almost no identifying data - most “access” requests resolve to “we have nothing on you” - but the right exists.
To exercise any right, email privacy@g-helper.com or open a GitHub issue with the label privacy. We aim to respond within 30 days.
Other notes
We don’t knowingly collect data from children under 16. Pages link to YouTube (review thumbnails), GitHub, the Asus driver pages, and the payment providers above; once you leave g-helper.com, the destination’s privacy policy applies. To block all site storage globally, use your browser’s privacy settings.
This policy may be updated when we change a processor, add a feature involving data, or correct mistakes. Material changes will be highlighted on the homepage briefly when they take effect.
