1. About VehicleMeta

VehicleMeta.com is an independent, fan-operated data reference for the video game World of Tanks. The site is not affiliated with, endorsed by, sponsored by, or in any way officially connected with Wargaming Group Limited, Wargaming.net Limited, or any of their subsidiaries or affiliates.

2. Trademark Acknowledgment

World of Tanks, World of Warships, Wargaming, and related game titles, logos, and tank-name designations introduced by Wargaming (e.g., "Object 268", "T26E5 Patriot") are trademarks or registered trademarks of Wargaming Group Limited or its subsidiaries.

Historical military designations (e.g., M4 Sherman, T-34, Panzer VI Tiger) are public-domain WWII military terminology and not subject to trademark.

Other third-party names mentioned on this site (Dolphin, Multilogin, Kinguin, Loaded, etc.) are trademarks of their respective owners. Use of these names is purely nominative — to identify the products discussed — and does not imply endorsement.

3. Content Sources & Attribution

Vehicle stats (HP, armor, gun parameters, mobility, camouflage, crew, consumables) are pulled from publicly accessible community APIs, primarily tanks.gg. Stats are factual data and not subject to copyright (Feist Publications v. Rural Telephone, 1991).

Vehicle thumbnail images on this site are sourced from the publicly accessible Wargaming community wiki at wiki.wgcdn.co and are © Wargaming Group Limited. They are reproduced here in a factual, editorial context (identifying the vehicle being described) as small-resolution thumbnails (~25 KB each). We claim no ownership of these images.

If you are the rights-holder and believe a specific image should be removed, see the DMCA section below — we will comply with takedown requests promptly.

4. Affiliate Disclosure

VehicleMeta participates in affiliate marketing programs, including (but not limited to) the Admitad CPA network. Links labeled rel="sponsored" or visibly marked as affiliate links direct readers to third-party sites. If you make a purchase or sign up after clicking such a link, VehicleMeta may receive a small commission at no extra cost to you.

This complies with the U.S. FTC Endorsements and Testimonials guidelines (16 CFR Part 255) and Google's Sponsored Link Attributes guidance for SEO.

Editorial decisions (what tanks to include, how stats are presented, how comparisons are computed) are not influenced by affiliate partners. All vehicles in the catalog are treated uniformly.

5. Privacy Policy

What we collect:

• Cloudflare Web Analytics — aggregate, cookie-free metrics (page views, country, referrer). No personal data. No tracking across sites.
• Cloudflare standard logs — IP, user agent, request URL. Retained for security/abuse prevention.
• Affiliate link tracking — when you click an outbound sponsored link, the destination network (Admitad, etc.) may set its own cookies. Refer to their privacy policies.

What we do NOT collect:

• No cookies set by VehicleMeta itself.
• No email signup / newsletter (at this time).
• No account system.
• No third-party ad networks (e.g., Google AdSense).

Per GDPR (EU) and CCPA (California): we do not process personal data beyond what is needed to deliver the site. You have the right to request information about any data processed about you — contact [email protected].

5. Statement, under penalty of perjury, that the information is accurate and you are the rights-holder or authorized agent
6. Physical or electronic signature

We will respond within 7 business days, typically with immediate takedown of the identified material pending review.

7. Terms of Use

The content on VehicleMeta is provided "as is" for informational purposes only. We make no warranty regarding the accuracy, completeness, or current-ness of game statistics, which may change between game patches.
