At a Glance
Artificial Integrity ("we", "our", or "us") respects your privacy. This studio archive uses official embedded media players (YouTube and Spotify) to stream music videos and audio, and runs Google Analytics 4 with Google Consent Mode v2 (cookieless and denied by default unless you accept cookies for site analytics and first-party campaign attribution). We never sell user data.
1. Information Handled
We keep data handling minimal and transparent:
- Embedded Media Players (YouTube & Spotify Cookies): Streaming videos and audio in the Broadcast Theater loads official iframe embeds from YouTube (
youtube.com) and Spotify (open.spotify.com). When loaded or interacted with, these third-party embeds may set functional, playback, or security cookies and local storage under Google and Spotify privacy policies. - Consent-Aware Analytics & First-Party Campaign Attribution (Google Analytics 4): By default, Google Analytics (
gtag.js) operates in Consent Mode v2 with all storage and ad signals denied (analytics_storage,ad_storage,ad_user_data, andad_personalizationset to'denied'), sending only anonymized, cookieless pings without reading or writing browser cookies. When you click "Accept", those Consent Mode v2 signals are granted to measure session traffic (with IP anonymization enabled) and first-party Google Ads campaign audiences. If you decline or revoke consent, all four signals revert to'denied', Google Analytics is disabled, and tracking cookies (_ga,_gid,_gat,_gcl) are purged. - Consent Preferences: Stored locally on your client machine (via
localStorage) to remember your privacy preference. - Automated Abuse & Scanner Protection: Edge security middleware monitors incoming requests for automated vulnerability scanner paths (such as
/wp-adminor/.env) and temporarily blocks offending IP addresses for 24 hours to protect studio infrastructure.
2. Purpose of Processing
All site functionality is designed to deliver the Artificial Integrity music catalog and studio stories:
- Streaming official widescreen music videos and full-album mixes in the Broadcast Theater.
- Providing interactive access to song lyrics and album stories in the Broadcast Theater companion deck.
- Measuring aggregate studio archive readership and interaction telemetry.
- Remembering your local UI and privacy settings across visits.
3. Cookies & Opt-Out
Analytics and campaign measurement cookies are blocked by default until you opt in. You can review or revoke your consent state at any time using the Privacy Policy drawer in the site footer, which immediately resets all Consent Mode v2 signals to denied, disables analytics collection, and purges Google Analytics and campaign attribution cookies. Third-party cookies set by YouTube or Spotify embeds can be managed through your browser cookie settings.
