Privacy Policy
This policy explains what information Farmers Market Finder ("we", "us") collects when you use this website, how it is used, and the choices you have. We keep data collection to a minimum.
Information we collect
Information collected automatically. Our website is hosted and delivered by Cloudflare. As with most websites, Cloudflare and our hosting setup process technical information such as your IP address, browser type, device type, the pages you request and the time of the request. This is used to deliver the site, keep it secure and understand overall usage.
Analytics. We may use privacy-focused analytics (such as Cloudflare Web Analytics) to measure page views and traffic sources. These tools are designed to work without tracking individuals across sites.
Information you send us. If you email us, we receive your email address and whatever you include in your message. We use it only to respond and, where relevant, to correct a listing.
We do not ask you to create an account, and we do not collect payment information.
Cookies
We do not set our own cookies to track you. If advertising is shown on this site, our advertising partners may set cookies, described below.
Advertising
We may display advertisements, including through Google AdSense and similar ad partners. Third-party vendors, including Google, use cookies to serve ads based on a user's 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 visit to this site and/or other sites on the internet.
- You can opt out of personalized advertising by visiting Google Ads Settings.
- You can also opt out of many third-party vendors' use of cookies for personalized advertising at aboutads.info.
- To learn how Google uses information from sites that use its services, see How Google uses information from sites or apps that use our services.
Where required by law (for example, for visitors in the European Economic Area, the United Kingdom and Switzerland), we show a consent message so you can choose whether to allow cookies for advertising and measurement, and you can change your choice later.
Maps and links to other sites
Market pages include an embedded map from OpenStreetMap, and many pages link to other websites, such as a market's own site. When a map loads, your browser contacts OpenStreetMap, which receives your IP address and browser information under its own privacy policy. We do not control other websites and are not responsible for their privacy practices.
How we use information
We use information to operate and secure the site, understand how it is used, respond to messages, correct listings, and (if ads are shown) serve and measure advertising. We do not sell personal information that we collect directly from you.
Your choices and rights
Depending on where you live (for example, California or the European Economic Area), you may have rights to access, correct or delete personal information, to object to or restrict certain processing, and to opt out of the sale or sharing of personal information for advertising. Because we collect very little personal information directly, most of these choices are exercised through the consent message and the opt-out tools above. To make a request about information you have sent us, contact us at [email protected]. Our legal bases for processing, where applicable, are your consent (for advertising cookies) and our legitimate interest in running and securing the site.
Children
This site is a general-audience directory and is not directed to children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children.
Data retention and security
We keep messages only as long as needed to respond. Hosting and analytics providers keep their own logs under their own retention practices. No method of transmission over the internet is completely secure, but we rely on a reputable infrastructure provider and use HTTPS.
Changes to this policy
We may update this policy from time to time. The date at the top shows when it was last changed.
