Cookies and privacy policy
We collect a small amount of technical and usage information so the site can work properly, so we can understand how it is used, and so public question history can be shown.
This site uses cookies or similar browser storage for site operation, basic analytics, advertising, and a few convenience features.
Analytics
Magic8 uses Umami for lightweight website analytics. This helps us understand which pages are visited and how the site is used in aggregate. We do not use it to build personal profiles of visitors.
Advertising
Advertising code may set cookies or use similar technologies to measure performance, detect fraud, and deliver ads. Third-party advertising providers may process limited usage data under their own policies.
Question history
Public questions asked on the site are stored together with the answer returned and the time they were asked so they can appear in recent history. If you tick the private option before submitting a question, that question is not stored.
Contact form
If you use the contact form, we store the details you submit long enough to process and respond to your message. We also keep limited technical information that helps us reduce spam and abuse.
Content delivery and security
Some technical services used to deliver and protect the site may process IP addresses, browser details, and request metadata as part of normal operation.
Your choices
If you do not want a question stored, use the private checkbox before you submit it. You can also block or clear cookies in your browser, though parts of the site or third-party services may behave differently.
