AI transparency

All game data on this site is extracted from the publicly available DayZ game files. No item value, no loot chance and no map coordinate is invented, estimated or generated by an AI.

The drawn illustrations (the zombie mascot, the comic, the banners) are created with an AI image generator and then selected, edited and assembled by hand.

Part of the source code is written with AI assistance. Every change is reviewed, tested and released by a human.

These illustrations are created with an AI image generator from hand-written prompts:

The mascot “Zed”, on the start page, in the empty states of the lists and on the 404 page.

The illustrations for the quick settings in the gameplay editor.

The panels of the comic “Don’t be a Kevin”. The speech bubbles and all lettering are set afterwards by a script, not by the image model.

The partner banners that other sites can embed. Layout, logo and text are drawn programmatically; only the character comes from the image generator.

Item data, item names, descriptions and icons: read directly from the DayZ game files and rendered in the game itself.

The zombie portraits: captured in the running game, not painted.

Map tiles, height data and 3D terrain: extracted from the world files of the game.

The server list: live data queried from the servers themselves.

Every number, table and statistic in the tools. If a value is on this site, it comes from the game. Otherwise it is not shown.

The editorial texts of this site (tool descriptions, guides, FAQs and legal pages) are written by the operator.

The translations into the ten site languages are produced with AI assistance and reviewed afterwards. Editorial responsibility for every text on this site stays with the operator named in the imprint.

Part of the source code of this website is written with AI assistance.

Nothing goes live unread: every change is reviewed, tested and deployed by a human. Responsibility for how this site behaves lies with the operator, never with a tool.

Source code is explicitly outside the marking obligation of the EU AI Act. This note is here because being open about it seems right, not because it is required.

There are no photorealistic AI images on DZPage that could be mistaken for real photographs, real people or real game screenshots. Every AI illustration is recognisable as a drawing.

Screenshots of the game and of the tools are real screen captures.

Should a photorealistic AI image ever be used here, it will carry a visible label directly on the image.

Article 50 of the EU AI Act (Regulation (EU) 2024/1689) has applied since 2 August 2026. It obliges operators to disclose deepfakes and AI-generated texts that inform the public on matters of public interest.

Drawn illustrations, tool texts and source code are not covered by that obligation, which is why this page is voluntary.

The machine-readable marking of AI outputs, meaning watermarks and metadata, is a duty of the provider of the respective generator, not of this website.

If something on this site looks AI-generated to you and is not listed here, please write to [email protected] or ask on the DZPage Discord. This page is updated whenever something changes.
