FEAR & LOADING / PRIVACY
How Fear & Loading and its Twitch extensions handle information. Updated November 14, 2026.
Visiting this website
Fear & Loading serves articles and download pages without a visitor account. The site has no mailing-list form or contact form. Search and category filters run in your browser.
Hosting
The site is hosted on Cloudflare Pages. Cloudflare may process technical information such as IP addresses and request details to deliver and protect the website. See Cloudflare’s privacy policy and its information about service cookies.
Google AdSense and advertising
Fear & Loading uses Google AdSense. When advertising is served, Google and its advertising partners may place and read cookies in your browser or use web beacons, IP addresses, and other identifiers to collect information. Google and its partners may use and share this information to deliver, personalize, measure, and protect ads against fraud, depending on your location and privacy choices.
Read how Google uses data on partner websites and manage ad personalization through Google My Ad Center. Where the site displays a consent message or privacy choices link, use it to manage your choices or withdraw consent.
If you email Fear & Loading, your email address and the information you choose to send are used to respond and help with your request. Please avoid including sensitive information that is not needed for support. To ask about information you have sent, use the Contact page.
External links and downloads
Some buttons open another service, such as Google Drive or a product checkout page. That service handles your visit under its own privacy policy. A link does not embed that service on this page. Apps you download can have their own account connections or data practices; check their included instructions and privacy information.
The Fog Mystery Boxes Twitch Extension
Twitch provides signed authorization information, including a pseudonymous viewer identifier and the channel identifier. The collection service uses these identifiers to save your characters and opening history for that channel, enforce daily limits, and prevent duplicate requests. Collection records can include character counts and opening timestamps. The service uses Twitch session tokens to authenticate requests and does not save them in the collection database.
Your saved collection stays private within the extension. If you share a collection summary in Twitch chat, that message is subject to Twitch’s privacy practices.
The Fog Collection Viewer Twitch Extension
When you grant identity access, Twitch provides your numeric Twitch account ID in a signed authorization token. The panel sends that token to the collection service, which verifies it and uses the viewer and channel IDs to find the collection synced by the broadcaster’s Fog Collection desktop app. The panel displays your own collection for that channel. It uses the token for verification and does not store it in the collection database.
The panel is read-only. The desktop app handles box openings through Twitch chat and syncs character counts and daily opening information. The panel does not request your email address, password, or payment information.
Birthday Gift Drop Off Twitch Extension
When you share your Twitch identity, the extension uses signed authorization information from Twitch to verify your account and channel and look up your Twitch username. When you send a gift, the service stores your username, the gift style, any birthday note you include, and the Bits amount for new Bits gifts. Twitch handles Bits checkout. The service verifies the Twitch transaction receipt and keeps a transaction identifier to prevent the same purchase from being credited twice.
The broadcaster can see senders, amounts, and gift status in Gift History. The extension keeps gifts waiting to be opened and the last 100 opened gifts in that history. If the broadcaster opens your gift on stream, the opening alert can display your Twitch username, the Bits amount for a paid gift, and any note you included. Only include a note you’re comfortable having shown on stream.
The gift service runs on Cloudflare Workers and stores gift records in Cloudflare Durable Objects. The broadcaster’s OBS source links provide access to the overlay and should be kept private. To ask about or request deletion of gift information, use the Contact page and include your Twitch username and the channel where you sent the gift.
Extension hosting and privacy requests
Twitch delivers and authorizes the extensions. Cloudflare hosts the collection services and databases and may process technical information to deliver and protect them. Collection records are kept to preserve saved progress. Removing an extension or revoking identity access does not automatically delete previously synced records.
Use the Contact page to ask about, correct, or request deletion of collection information. Include the extension name, your Twitch username, and the relevant channel so we can locate the record. We may need to verify your request. Please keep passwords and authorization tokens private.
