Privacy Policy
Last updated: October 2026
1. Introduction
Babus Fly ("we", "our", or "us") operates an independent flight metasearch and route comparison engine. We respect your privacy and are committed to transparency in how our service operates, how search queries are processed, and how advertising and browser technologies are used.
2. Information We Collect
As a metasearch engine, we collect minimal data required to process search queries:
- Search Criteria: Origin airport, destination airport, travel dates, passenger count, and cabin preference.
- Technical Diagnostics & Log Files: Standard server log information including IP address, browser type, Internet Service Provider (ISP), date/time stamp, and referring/exit pages to rate-limit search abuse, analyze trends, and ensure service availability.
We do not collect credit cards, passport numbers, or passenger payment data. All bookings and payment collections occur on independent third-party travel platforms.
4. Google AdSense & Third-Party Advertising Cookies
We may use Google AdSense and other third-party advertising networks to serve advertisements when you visit our website. Please note the following disclosures required under Google Publisher Policies:
- Third-Party Vendors & Cookies: Third-party vendors, including Google, use cookies, web beacons, and similar technologies to serve ads based on a user's prior visits to this website or other websites on the Internet.
- Google Advertising Cookies (DART / DoubleClick): Google's use of advertising cookies enables it and its partners to serve personalized or non-personalized ads to you based on your visit to Babus Fly and/or other sites on the Internet.
- How to Opt Out of Personalized Advertising: Users may opt out of personalized advertising at any time by visiting Google Ads Settings. Alternatively, you can opt out of third-party vendors' use of cookies for personalized advertising by visiting www.aboutads.info/choices or the Network Advertising Initiative opt-out page at optout.networkadvertising.org.
5. Third-Party Travel Websites & Affiliate Links
When you click "View Deal", our system redirects your browser to an independent external travel website or airline (such as Skyscanner, Kiwi.com, Kayak, Google Flights, or Aviasales) with your route and date pre-filled. Where applicable, outbound links may contain affiliate referral identifiers. These external sites are independent from Babus Fly and maintain their own privacy policies, cookie notices, and terms of service.
6. GDPR (EEA/UK) & CCPA Privacy Rights
Depending on your location, including the European Economic Area (EEA), the United Kingdom, Switzerland, or California, you have specific data protection rights:
- Right to Access, Rectification, or Erasure: Because we do not require user accounts or store personal profiles, we do not retain persistent personal records tied to your identity.
- Right to Withdraw Consent: Visitors in the EEA, UK, and Switzerland can manage or withdraw their advertising and cookie consent preferences at any time via our consent interface or browser settings.
- CCPA / CPRA (California Residents): We do not sell personal information to third parties. You may opt out of cross-context behavioral advertising cookies via the opt-out links in Section 4.
7. Data Retention
Flight search cache entries are ephemeral in memory and are discarded automatically after short time-to-live (TTL) intervals (typically 15 minutes). Diagnostic server logs are rotated automatically.
