2. Server Logs & Technical Connection Data

When you access gta6graphics.com, our web hosting servers and content delivery networks (CDNs) automatically collect standard technical connection metadata. This information is utilized strictly to deliver web pages, maintain platform stability, monitor performance, and defend against malicious automated traffic or denial-of-service attempts:

• IP Address: Truncated and anonymized for network diagnostic and rate-limiting purposes.
• Browser & Operating System: Used to render responsive layouts across desktop, tablet, and mobile devices.
• Referring URL: Analyzed in aggregate to understand search discovery patterns.

3. Local Storage in Browser-Based Calculators

Our interactive utilities (such as the Can I Run GTA 6? Hardware Tool, PS5 Pro Upgrade Decider, and VRAM Allocation Calculator) execute client-side inside your browser. We utilize standard HTML5 Local Storage solely to remember your chosen hardware options (GPU, CPU, screen resolution) so that your selections persist if you reload the page:

• can_i_run_it_gpu / can_i_run_it_cpu: Remembers selected hardware in the Bottleneck Tool.
• vram_calc_preset: Stores active resolution and texture settings in the VRAM Calculator.
• visual_wiper_position: Preserves your split-screen slider location in the Visual Comparison Studio.

Local Storage data remains strictly on your device, is never transmitted to external databases, and can be cleared at any time through your browser settings.
