Privacy Policy

Last updated: September 17, 2026

This Privacy Policy describes how The Santos Wire (“we,” “us”) collects, uses, and shares information when you use this website.

Information we collect

Demo sign-in stores a lightweight cookie with a display name so we can remember votes and saves on this device. We do not require email or a password for the current demo auth flow. Clip submissions and votes you make are stored in our application data store for ranking and display.

Server logs may include standard request metadata such as IP address, user agent, and timestamps (for example via our hosting provider).

Advertising (Google AdSense)

We use Google AdSense to display ads. Third-party vendors, including Google, use cookies to serve ads based on a user's prior visits to this website or other websites.

Google's use of advertising cookies enables it and its partners to serve ads to users based on their visit to this site and/or other sites on the Internet.

Users may opt out of personalized advertising by visiting Google Ads Settings. You can also opt out of some third-party vendors' use of cookies for personalized advertising at www.aboutads.info.

For more detail on how Google uses data when you use partners' sites or apps, see How Google uses data when you use our partners' sites or apps.

How we use information

We use the information above to operate the site (votes, saves, submissions), improve the experience, prevent abuse, and serve advertising where enabled.

Embedded content

Pages may embed third-party players (for example Twitch, YouTube, or Kick). Those platforms may set their own cookies and collect data under their own policies when embeds load.
