The short version

You do not need an account to use this site. We do not sell personal information. Advertising on the site is served by Google, which uses cookies as described below.

Your location

When you press "Use my location" or sort a list by distance, your browser asks for permission to share your location. If you agree, the distance calculation happens entirely in your browser. Your location is not sent to us or stored.

Advertising and cookies

We use Google AdSense to show ads. Google and its partners 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 visits to this site and other sites on the internet.

You can opt out of personalised advertising in Google Ads Settings, or opt out of some third-party vendors' use of cookies at aboutads.info. Read how Google uses information from sites that use its services.

Visitors in regions with consent requirements, such as the European Economic Area and the United Kingdom, will be asked for consent through Google's certified consent message before personalised ads are shown.

Affiliate links

When you click an Amazon affiliate link, Amazon may set cookies to credit the referral to us. Amazon's own privacy notice covers what happens on its site.

Third-party services

Pages load fonts from Google Fonts, maps use OpenStreetMap tiles, and listing photos load from Google's image servers. Each of these receives your IP address when your browser requests the file, as with any website.

Emails

If you email us, we use your address only to reply and to act on your request.

Children

This site is not directed to children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect their personal information.
