Privacy policy
Last updated: October 15, 2026
This policy sets out how the animecca team ("we") handles data on animecca (https://animecca.jp). There are no accounts, and we never ask for your name or address to use the site.
What we collect
- Access data: IP address, browser type, pages viewed and referrer, processed by Cloudflare, which serves the site, and by Google Analytics.
- Streaming link taps and return visits: counted per work, service and day, and per week for return visits. We do not record who they came from.
- Correction reports: the work, the streaming service and the text you enter in "Report wrong streaming info" on a work page.
- Contact messages: the name, email address, category and message you send through the contact form.
Why we use it
- To show the site, provide its features and investigate faults
- To check and correct what we list
- To reply to your message
- To understand how the site is used and improve it
- To stop repeated automated submissions and excessive load
- To show advertising, when we run it
How long we keep it
Correction reports are deleted automatically six months after they are sent. Contact emails are deleted within six months of the matter being closed. When you send a report, a contact message or a tap count, your IP address is used only for a short-lived rate limit and is not stored in our database.
Data stored in your browser
We store your day/night mode setting, visit weeks used to count return visits, selected Anime Shuffle genres, and saved works in your browser's local storage. Works discovered during a shuffle and your place in it are stored in session storage. You can delete this information in your browser settings.
Data sent to third parties
To show the site and run its features, your device sends data to the following companies.

Contact messages reach our mailbox (Gmail, by Google LLC) through Cloudflare's email sending. When you open another site, its own privacy policy applies.
YouTube videos and data are shown through YouTube API Services, and the Google Privacy Policy applies to how YouTube handles your data.
