Privacy Policy
Last updated: placeholder — not yet finalized.
Draft notice: This page is a placeholder while we finalize our privacy policy. The summary below describes our intent; treat it as good-faith disclosure during early access.
Data we collect
- Email address — used for account login and password resets.
- Locations you choose when creating restaurant lists — stored to generate and display those lists.
- Your visit, rating, and notes data on restaurants — stored to power your personal lists.
What we don’t do
- We don’t sell your data to third parties.
- We don’t use your visit history, ratings, or notes to target ads. Those are private to your account.
- Anonymous usage analytics are collected via Vercel Analytics to help us improve the product.
Advertising & cookies
Taste Quest is free, and we offset hosting costs with display ads served through Google AdSense. Some things to know:
- Google and its third-party advertising partners use cookies (including the DoubleClick DART cookie) to serve ads based on your prior visits to our site or other sites.
- You can opt out of personalized advertising by visiting Google’s Ads Settings. You can also opt out of third-party vendors’ use of cookies for personalized advertising at aboutads.info/choices.
- If you’re in the EEA, UK, or Switzerland, we surface a consent choice (via Google’s Funding Choices CMP) before personalized ads load. If you decline, you’ll see non-personalized ads instead.
- For more about how Google uses data when you use partner sites or apps, see Google’s policy.
