Privacy policy

How we handle your information.

Last updated January 1, 2026

This policy explains what data Midnight Files collects when you visit the site, how it is used, and your rights. We try to keep this short and human-readable.

What we collect

Analytics. We use privacy-respecting analytics to understand which stories people read and how they got here. This includes anonymized information such as page views, referring sites, country-level location, and approximate device type. We do not collect personally identifiable information for analytics.

Cookies. If we serve advertising on this site, ad partners (such as Google AdSense) may use cookies and similar technologies to deliver and measure ads. You can control these via your browser settings or your device's privacy controls.

Email. If you contact us, we receive whatever you send and use it only to reply. We do not share contact emails with third parties.

Advertising

Some pages display ads served by Google AdSense and similar networks. These networks may use cookies to serve ads based on your previous visits to this and other websites. Google and its partners may also use technologies described in their respective privacy policies. You can opt out of personalized advertising at Google Ads Settings or aboutads.info.

Affiliate links

Some links on this site are affiliate links. If you buy something after following one, we may earn a small commission at no additional cost to you. This never changes our editorial recommendations.

Your rights

You can ask us at any time to confirm what data we hold about you and to delete it. Email the editors via the contact page.

Changes

If this policy changes substantively, we will update the date at the top of this page.
