Effective date: August 18, 2026

This Privacy Policy explains how The Mocktail Guide ("The Mocktail Guide", "we", "us", or "our") collects, uses, and shares information when you visit themocktailguide.com (the "Site"). By using the Site, you agree to the practices described here.

Information we collect

We collect limited information in the following ways:

  • Information you provide. When you submit a venue or contact us, we collect the details you enter, such as venue information and, optionally, your name and email address.
  • Automatically collected information. Like most websites, we and our service providers automatically collect certain technical data such as your IP address, browser type, device information, referring pages, and pages viewed, primarily through cookies and similar technologies.

Cookies and similar technologies

We use cookies and similar technologies to operate the Site, understand how it is used, and serve advertising. You can control cookies through your browser settings; disabling cookies may affect some features.

Advertising and Google AdSense

We use third-party advertising, including Google AdSense, to display ads on the Site. Third-party vendors, including Google, use cookies to serve ads based on your prior visits to this and other websites.

  • Google's use of advertising cookies enables it and its partners to serve ads to you based on your visit to this Site and/or other sites on the Internet.
  • You may opt out of personalized advertising by visiting Google Ads Settings.
  • You can opt out of some third-party vendors' use of cookies for personalized advertising at aboutads.info/choices.

For more information about how Google uses data when you use our partners' sites or apps, see Google's policy.

Analytics

We may use privacy-focused analytics to understand aggregate, anonymized traffic patterns. This helps us improve the Site and does not identify you personally.

How we use information

  • To operate, maintain, and improve the Site and its directory features.
  • To review and verify venue submissions and respond to your messages.
  • To display relevant advertising and measure its performance.
  • To protect against fraud, abuse, and security risks.

How we share information

We do not sell your personal information. We share information with service providers who help us run the Site (such as hosting, form processing, analytics, and advertising partners), and when required by law or to protect our rights.

Your choices and rights

Depending on where you live, you may have rights to access, correct, or delete your personal information, or to opt out of certain processing (including the "sale" or "sharing" of data as defined under laws such as the GDPR and the CCPA/CPRA). To exercise these rights, contact us at hello@themocktailguide.com.

Children's privacy

The Site is not directed to children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13.
