This Privacy Policy explains what information is collected when you visit Mystery Babylon Guide, how it is used, and what rights you have. We have written it in plain language — no walls of legal jargon — because you deserve to know what is actually happening.

What We Do Not Collect
This site does not have user accounts. You cannot register, log in, or create a profile. There are no comment forms. We do not run advertising networks that track you across other websites. We do not sell, rent, or trade any data about visitors.
What Is Collected Automatically
Like every web server on the internet, ours records a standard access log each time a page is loaded. This log includes your IP address, the page requested, the date and time, and your browser type. These logs are used solely for diagnosing technical problems and monitoring for abuse. They are not analyzed for marketing purposes and are not shared with third parties.
Cookies
This site uses LiteSpeed Cache, a performance plugin that sets a small functional cookie to identify whether a cached version of a page can be served to your browser. This cookie does not identify you personally, is not used for tracking, and expires when you close your browser or within a short session window.
No other first-party cookies are currently set.
Future Services: Email Newsletter
We plan to offer an optional email newsletter in the future. If and when that launches, subscribing will be entirely voluntary. You will be asked for your email address, and you will receive a confirmation before being added to any list. Every email will include an easy unsubscribe link. We will not send your email address to third parties for marketing purposes.
Future Services: Analytics
We may add standard web analytics (such as Google Analytics or a privacy-first alternative) in the future to understand which content is most useful to readers. If we do, this policy will be updated to describe what data is collected and how it is processed. Analytics, if added, will use standard anonymization and will comply with applicable law.
Third-Party Services
Amazon Associates. Some pages on this site contain affiliate links to Amazon. When you click one of these links, you are leaving this site and visiting Amazon, which has its own privacy policy and may set its own cookies. Amazon may track purchases made after clicking those links for the purpose of paying this site an affiliate commission.
Archive.org audio embeds. Some episode pages embed audio players from the Internet Archive (archive.org). When those players load, your browser connects directly to archive.org servers. The Internet Archive has its own privacy policy governing any data that connection generates.
Data Retention and Security
Server access logs are retained for a limited period for operational purposes and then discarded. No personal data is actively collected or stored beyond what appears in those logs. We maintain standard security practices for our hosting environment.
Your Rights (GDPR and CCPA)
If you are in the European Union, European Economic Area, or California, you have the right to ask what personal data we hold about you, to request its deletion, and to object to its processing. Because this site does not collect personal data beyond server logs, there is very little to act on — but the right exists and we respect it.
To make a data request, email contact@mysterybabylonguide.com and describe what you are looking for. We will respond within 30 days.
Children’s Privacy
This site is not directed at children under 13. We do not knowingly collect any personal information from children. If you believe a child has submitted personal information to us, please contact us and we will delete it promptly.
Changes to This Policy
If we make material changes to this policy — for example, when the newsletter or analytics features launch — we will update the effective date at the top of this page. Continued use of the site after any change constitutes acceptance of the updated policy.
