YOUR INFORMATION
Cookies & browser storage
What this website stores in your browser and how you can manage it.
Updated 2 November 2026
Browser storage used by the map
| Technology | Purpose | Duration |
|---|---|---|
Google Analytics: _ga and _ga_P4XC086EE5 | Optional visit and session measurement, only after acceptance | Configured lifetime up to 180 days; browsers may shorten it |
Local storage: seedmapkit-analytics-choice-v1 | Remembers your analytics decision and its date | Used for 180 days, or until site data is cleared |
| Local storage: recent maps | Up to 20 automatically recorded seed-and-dimension combinations, including the latest map settings and visit time | Until history is cleared, site data is cleared or the browser removes it |
| Local storage: named saved views | Up to 12 views you choose to save, including names and map settings | Until removed, site data is cleared or the browser removes it |
| Page memory | Current inputs, map data and navigation state | Until the page closes or reloads |
| URL fragment | Seed and settings in a shared-view link | While the link is retained, including browser history |
Local storage keeps recent history and named saved views in this browser profile. The application does not transmit these entries to a server or synchronize them to other devices. Returning to the same seed, edition, version and dimension updates its history entry rather than storing a duplicate. The two lists are separate: recent history is automatic; named views are saved when you choose Save view.
Clear recent map history
Open Home, select Recent maps, then choose Clear recent history. This removes automatic history from the current browser without removing your named saved views. The next map you open can start a new history entry.
For identification in your browser’s site-data tools, the recent-history entry is minecraft-seed-explorer.history.v1. Named views use minecraft-seed-explorer.views.v1. These storage names are not accounts or server identifiers.
Remove named saved views
You can use the map without saving a view. Remove individual entries on the map or use the button below to remove all views saved by this website in the current browser.
This clears only the saved-view entry used by this application. It leaves recent history in place and does not delete a Minecraft world or remove unrelated browser data.
You can also manage this website’s stored data through your browser’s site-data settings. Private browsing may remove both lists when the session closes. If storage is blocked, you can still calculate maps, but recent history and saving or restoring views may be unavailable.
Advertising and analytics
Google Analytics loads only after you choose Accept analytics. Choosing Decline analytics prevents it from loading. Both choices allow you to use the map. We do not load advertising or account sign-in cookies.
To change your decision, select Analytics settings in any footer. Declining stops future measurement, removes accessible _ga cookies and reloads the page if Analytics was already running. Data already received by Google is not removed by that action. Clearing your site data also clears the remembered decision, so we ask again on your next visit.
Browser storage can be subject to privacy rules even when it is not a cookie. General background is available in the ICO’s storage and access guidance.
