Privacy Policy

Effective Date: August 10, 2025

Welcome to the Silksong Wiki (“we,” “us,” or “our”). We are dedicated to creating the best possible resource for Hollow Knight: Silksong. Your privacy is critically important to us, and this policy outlines how we handle your information when you use our website, https://silksongwiki.com (the “Site”).

This policy explains what information we collect, why we collect it, and how you can manage your information.

What Information We Collect

We collect a minimal amount of information to operate and improve our site. The data we collect can be broken down into three categories:

1. Information You Provide Directly

• Communications: When you contact us directly via our email address ([email protected]), we collect your email address and any information you choose to include in your message. We use this solely to respond to your inquiries, suggestions, or error reports.

2. Information Collected Automatically

• Usage Data & Analytics: Like most websites, we automatically collect certain information to understand how our visitors use the site. This helps us improve our guides and user experience. This data may include:
  • Your IP address (often anonymized)
  • Browser type and version
  • The pages you visit on our site
  • The time and date of your visit
  • The time spent on those pages
• We utilize privacy-respecting analytics services to process this data in an aggregated and anonymous form.

3. Data Processed Locally on Your Device

• Progression Tracker Tool: Our Progression Tracker tool is designed with your privacy as the top priority. When you use this tool to analyze a save file:
  • All processing happens within your web browser on your own device.
  • Your save file is NEVER uploaded to our servers.
  • We do not see, collect, or store any data from your save files. Your game progress remains your own.

How We Use Your Information

We use the information we collect for the following purposes:

• To Operate and Maintain Our Site: Ensuring the wiki is functional, secure, and available to you.
• To Improve Our Content: Analyzing usage patterns helps us understand which guides are most helpful and where we need to focus our efforts.
• To Respond to You: We use your email address to reply to your questions and feedback.
• To Fulfill Community Goals: Information from suggestions and corrections helps us make the wiki more accurate for everyone.

Cookies and Tracking Technologies

A “cookie” is a small text file that a website stores on a visitor’s computer.

• Analytics Cookies: We use cookies to help us identify and track visitors, their usage of the Site, and their website access preferences. This helps us generate our analytics data.
• Functionality: In the future, if we add features like user accounts, we may use cookies to remember your login status.

You can instruct your browser to refuse all cookies or to indicate when a cookie is being sent. However, if you do not accept cookies, some parts of our Site may not function properly.

Information Sharing and Disclosure

Your trust is essential to us.

• We do not sell, trade, or rent your personal information to anyone.
• We may share anonymized, aggregated usage data with third-party service providers who help us operate our website (such as our hosting provider or analytics service), but this data does not personally identify you.
• Advertising: All or partial advertising on this Site is managed by Playwire LLC. If Playwire publisher advertising services are used, Playwire LLC may collect and use certain aggregated and anonymized data for advertising purposes.

We take reasonable administrative and technical measures to help protect your information from loss, theft, misuse, and unauthorized access. However, no electronic transmission over the internet can be guaranteed to be 100% secure.

Third-Party Links

Our Site contains links to other websites that are not operated by us (e.g., official Team Cherry pages, Steam, PlayStation Store). If you click on a third-party link, you will be directed to that third party’s site. We have no control over and assume no responsibility for the content or privacy practices of any third-party sites. We strongly advise you to review the Privacy Policy of every site you visit.
