Privacy policy
Short version: we keep data collection to a minimum, and we will update this page before adding anything new.
Last updated 2026-11-02.
What we collect
Mahjong Beginner Guide is a static site. We do not have user accounts, comment forms or a sign-up form, and we do not ask you for personal information to read a guide. If you email us, we receive your email address and message, and we use them only to reply.
Server logs
Our hosting provider, Cloudflare, processes requests for the site and may keep standard server logs (such as IP address, browser type and the pages requested) for security and operations.
Cookies and analytics
We use Google Analytics 4 to understand which pages are read and how visitors find the site. Google Analytics sets first-party cookies (such as _ga) and collects information like the pages you view, your approximate location, device and browser type, and how you arrived. We have IP anonymization on and Google signals and ad personalization off, and we do not use this data to identify you. You can read how Google uses data from sites that use its services and opt out with the Google Analytics opt-out browser add-on. The site does not run advertising scripts. If that changes, we will update this page first.
Advertising and affiliate links
We may display advertising and may use affiliate links. Advertising networks commonly use cookies and similar technologies to show and measure ads. If we use one, it will be listed here along with its own privacy information and your choices. Affiliate links take you to other sites, which have their own privacy policies. See our affiliate disclosure.
Images and outside links
Photos from Unsplash are hosted on our own servers. Credits link to Unsplash and to the photographers. Other links on the site lead to third-party sites that we do not control.
Children
The site is written for adults and is not directed to children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children.
Your choices and rights
You can ask us what personal information we hold from your emails and ask us to delete it. Depending on where you live, you may have additional rights under laws such as the GDPR or the CCPA. Email us through the contact page and we will respond.
Changes
We will post any changes to this policy here and update the date above.
