Privacy at Trail Compass
This is a content website. We do not require accounts. We do not collect names, email addresses, or location data from visitors browsing the public trail directory. The only personal information we hold is whatever you voluntarily send us via email.
Analytics
We use privacy-respecting aggregate analytics to understand which guides are most useful. No individual visitor profile is built, no third-party advertising identifier is attached, and no data is sold to third parties.
Advertising
The site reserves clearly labeled slots for display advertising delivered by third-party ad networks. Where present, those networks may set their own cookies subject to their own privacy policies. Our ad slots are labeled in the page source as <!-- ADSENSE_HEADER -->, <!-- ADSENSE_IN_CONTENT -->, <!-- ADSENSE_SIDEBAR -->, and <!-- ADSENSE_FOOTER -->.
Cookies
The Trail Compass site itself does not set persistent cookies. Third-party advertising or embedded content may set cookies governed by those parties.
Children
Trail Compass is general-audience content not directed at children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children.
Changes
This notice may be updated as the site evolves. The most recent version is always available at /privacy.
