Privacy Policy

Last updated 8 August 2026

WarMap Live has no accounts, no sign-up and no login. We never ask you for a name, an email address or anything else about you. This page lists everything that does happen when you load the map.

What we ask you for

Nothing. There is no form on this site, no newsletter, no account and no payment. We do not knowingly collect personal information, and we have no database of visitors.

What is stored in your browser

Two small preferences are saved in your browser's local storage so the map remembers how you like it:

• warmaplive:sound-on — whether incident sounds are on.
• warmaplive:follow-live — whether the map auto-frames new incidents.

These stay on your device, are never sent to us, and are deleted when you clear site data for this domain. We set no cookies of our own.

Third-party analytics, described below, do set their own cookies.

Analytics and session recording

Two third-party measurement tools load on this site. Both are used to understand how the map is used and to find bugs — not to build a profile of you and not for advertising.

• Google Analytics 4 (property G-QL2811J7YS) — pages viewed, approximate location derived from your IP address, device, browser and referrer. Governed by Google's privacy policy.
• Microsoft Clarity (project v5wpcue9h0) — heatmaps and session recordings: your clicks, taps, scrolling and mouse movement on this page are recorded and replayed to us. There is nothing to type on this site, so no typed input is captured. Governed by Microsoft's privacy statement.

These are shared across the Lumora Build network, so traffic from this site is measured alongside our other sites in one property.

We do not sell data, run advertising, or share anything with data brokers.

Services that see your request

Loading the map necessarily reveals your IP address to the services that serve it:

• Cloudflare hosts the site and processes requests, including standard server logs and abuse protection.
• CARTO and OpenStreetMap serve the map tiles.
• Google Fonts serves the two typefaces.

Clicking through to a news article takes you to that outlet's own site, under that outlet's own privacy policy. We have no control over, and no visibility into, what happens there.

How to opt out

• Any mainstream content or tracker blocker stops both analytics tools; the map works normally without them.
• Google offers a browser opt-out add-on for Analytics.
• Clearing site data for warmaplive.com removes the stored preferences and any analytics cookies.
• Browsing in a private window keeps nothing between visits.

Your rights

Because we hold no account and no identifier of our own, there is generally nothing for us to look up, export or erase — the data described above sits with Google, Microsoft and Cloudflare under their own policies and their own request processes.

If you believe we hold something about you, or you want a request forwarded, write to warmaplive@lumorabuild.com and we will answer.

Children

This site reports on armed conflict and is not designed for or directed at children. We do not knowingly collect information from anyone.
