Privacy and disclosures

Your plan

My plan saves selections in this browser’s local storage. It does not create an account or sync between devices. You can clear the plan from the tool or remove this site’s browser data. The search box also keeps your last six searches in this browser so you can return to them; its Clear button removes them. Public pages do not display a staff account’s email address.

Measurement and outside resources

Site analytics is described under Google Analytics below. Cloudflare may load its Web Analytics beacon at the network edge. WoW item tooltips on some pages load from Wowhead. See Cloudflare Web Analytics for its description.

When site measurement is enabled, the app stores daily totals for actions such as saving a target, opening a briefing and marking guidance helpful. Those totals record an event type, page context and experiment variant; they do not store the contents of your browser plan. Search Console and site analytics counts cover different things and may not match.

Advertising

MaxDPS uses Google AdSense to show labelled advertisements. Google and its partners may use cookies or similar identifiers to serve and measure ads, including personalized ads where you consent. Read how Google uses information from partner sites and manage personalization in My Ad Center.

Where required, a consent message lets you accept, refuse or manage advertising choices. You can revisit those choices through the privacy settings link shown by Google on pages with ads. US visitors may also receive applicable privacy and opt-out choices. This privacy page does not load advertisements.

Google Analytics

MaxDPS also uses Google Analytics to measure visits, including for advertising partners reviewing the site’s traffic. It records the address of each page you open, including any search words in it, along with referring sites, browser and device information, approximate location, and interactions such as scrolling, site searches and following links to other sites. When a search finds nothing, it records the words searched, up to 80 characters, so missing pages can be added; searches that look like an email address or a long number are never sent. Its cookies tell visits and returning visitors apart.

In Quebec, the European Economic Area, the United Kingdom and Switzerland, Google Analytics sets no cookies and sends Google only limited, cookieless measurements unless you agree through a consent message. Read how Google uses information from partner sites, or install Google’s opt-out browser add-on.

Paid links and corrections

If an optional paid recommendation appears, it is labelled as an affiliate link, sponsorship or advertisement. An outbound click is not proof of a sale. Paid placements do not determine gear scores. There is no checkout on MaxDPS.com.
