Privacy
You can use the site without an account
Browsing, searching, the map and the trip planner work without signing in. Trips you save are stored in your own browser, not on our servers.
What we store
- Email sign-ups: your email address, the page you signed up from and the time. Used only to send the weekly email. Unsubscribe from any email or write to us and we delete it.
- Host applications: what you enter in the form, so we can verify and build your listing.
- Outbound clicks: when you click a booking link, we record which listing, which page you came from, the destination website and the time, so hosts can see that HikeShenandoah sent them visitors. We do not record your IP address or tie clicks to you.
- Corrections you send us by email.
What we do not do
No advertising trackers, no selling or sharing your information with marketers. We use Cloudflare to host the site, which processes requests as our service provider. Map tiles are loaded from OpenFreeMap and terrain from Amazon's open data registry; photos load from Wikimedia. Those services receive your IP address when your browser requests them.
