Effective: March 15, 2026 | Last updated: March 15, 2026
This English text is a courtesy translation — the Korean version is the authoritative one.
1. Why we collect data
ficta (the "Service") collects a minimal amount of information for the following purposes.
- Usage analytics and quality improvement
- Service reliability and error response
2. What is collected
The Service requires no account and collects nothing that directly identifies you (no name, email, or phone number).
Google Analytics 4 automatically collects:
- Pages visited and time spent
- Browser, operating system, screen resolution
- Approximate location (city-level, IP-based)
- Referral source (search engine, external link, etc.)
- A cookie identifier (an anonymous ID that does not identify you personally)
IP addresses are anonymized automatically by Google Analytics.
3. Retention
Google Analytics data retention: 14 months (Google's default)
The operator keeps no personal-data database of its own.
4. Third parties
Collected information is shared with the following services.
- Google Analytics 4 (Google LLC) — usage analytics
Google privacy policy: policies.google.com/privacy - Vercel Inc. — hosting and CDN
Vercel privacy policy: vercel.com/legal/privacy-policy
No personal information is provided to any other third party.
5. Cookies
The Service uses cookies to operate Google Analytics.
- _ga, _ga_* — Google Analytics visitor distinction (up to 2 years)
To opt out, block cookies in your browser or install the Google Analytics opt-out browser add-on.
6. Your rights
- Deleting your browser cookies unlinks you from previously collected data.

7. Content copyright
Every story published on ficta is generated by AI (large language models).
