No accounts and no sign-up. We only receive what you choose to send through the contact form, plus standard server logs and an anonymous daily page-view counter. If analytics is enabled, it is anonymised and used only to see which guides are useful. We never sell data.
Summary
Baper Rasta Guide (baparrasta.com) is an independent fan site. It does not host the game, does not sell data and does not require registration. The sections below describe exactly what happens to information when you visit or contact us, written in plain language.
What we collect
- Contact form: your name, email, topic and message, used only to reply or to fix a correction. Messages are emailed to us and may be stored in our database. They are never published.
- Server logs: standard technical data (IP address, browser, pages requested) kept by our hosting provider for security and troubleshooting, under their own retention rules.
- Page-view counters: a daily total of views per page, with no cookies and no personal identifiers.
Database and retention
If the site’s database is enabled, contact messages are stored together with a one-way hash of your IP address (never the address itself) and your browser’s user-agent string, which we use to limit spam by rate-limiting repeated submissions. We aim to delete contact messages after 12 months unless they relate to an ongoing correction or a legal request. Page-view totals are aggregated and cannot be traced back to a person.
Cookies and analytics
This site does not set advertising cookies by default. If we enable Google Analytics 4, it runs with IP anonymisation and measures page views and outbound clicks (for example, the “Play” buttons). If we ever show ads, this policy will be updated first and a consent option provided where required by law. You can block analytics with your browser settings or an extension.
Third-party links
Play buttons and news links open other websites (the original game, YouTube, news outlets, social platforms). Those sites have their own privacy practices; we do not control them. Opening a link in a new tab does not share your data with us.
The original game
The game at baperrasta.com is operated by its creator. Its own privacy notice says that game settings and records are stored on your device and that online Most Wanted records can include damage amount, run duration, collision count and a random device identifier, plus a public name if you enter one. Please read that notice on the original site. This fan site is not connected to that data.
Children
This site is not directed at young children and we do not knowingly collect their personal information. The game it describes contains crashes and a chase ending; parents should review it before letting children play.
Security
The site is served over HTTPS and uses security headers. Contact data is stored with parameterised queries and the database credentials are kept outside public pages. No system is perfectly secure, so please do not send passwords, payment details or other sensitive information through the contact form.
Your choices
You can ask us to access or delete a message you sent by writing to the address below. Residents of regions with data-protection laws may have additional rights, such as correction or objection, which we will honour on request.
Changes to this policy
We will update this page, and its effective date, if our practices change, for example if we start showing ads or add new analytics.
Contact
Privacy questions: [email protected] or use the contact form.
