MyDeckPick is a Magic: The Gathering card-alternatives tool. There are no accounts, no sign-up, and no password. You can use every part of the site without telling us who you are, and we have deliberately kept what we collect small enough to describe on one page.
| What | Why |
|---|---|
| A random anonymous id, stored in your browser | To tell one visit apart from another so we can count how many people use a feature. It is generated by your browser, is not linked to any name or email, and you can clear it at any time by clearing site data. |
| Which cards you look at, which alternatives you click, which buy links you click, and your 👍/👎 votes | To measure whether the recommendations are useful and to improve them. This is the product's core feedback loop. |
| A hashed IP address | Abuse prevention and rate limiting. We store a one-way hash, not your IP. |
| Your browser's user-agent string and country | To distinguish real visitors from the automated crawlers that make up most of our traffic, and to know roughly where the product is used. |
If you arrived from an advertisement or a link: the campaign tags in the link
(utm_source, utm_medium, utm_campaign,
utm_term, utm_content) and the advertising platform's own click id
(such as gclid or fbclid), plus the domain name of the site
you came from |
So we can tell whether an advertisement actually sent anyone, and whether those visitors found the tool useful. We keep only the domain of the referring site — never the full address, which could contain a search term or the title of a private page. This is kept for the current browsing session only and is not stored on your device after you close the tab. |
No name, no email address, no postal address, no payment details, and no account. We never see your payment information — purchases happen entirely on TCGplayer, not here.
Buy links on this site are affiliate links to TCGplayer, operated through the Impact partner network.
If you buy something after following one, we may earn a commission at no extra cost to you.
Following a buy link passes a click identifier and a label describing which part of the page you clicked
from (for example budget or source) so the sale can be attributed. That label
describes the page, never you.
We use your browser's local storage to remember your anonymous id, your theme, a pinned commander, and a queue of pending analytics events. We do not use advertising cookies and we do not run third-party ad trackers.
Nobody, for money or otherwise. Data is stored in our database (Neon) and served through our host (Vercel). Following a buy link necessarily discloses that click to TCGplayer and Impact, which is how affiliate attribution works anywhere.
Analytics events are kept while they remain useful for improving the recommendations. There is no personal profile to delete, because we never build one.
Clearing your browser's site data for mydeckpick.com removes your anonymous id and every local preference; after that you are indistinguishable from a first-time visitor. If you would like the events associated with an anonymous id removed, email us with that id and we will delete them.
MyDeckPick is not directed at children under 13 and we do not knowingly collect data from them.
