Your data, plainly
Privacy Policy
TapWaterMap is a static information site. We have no logins, no newsletter, and we don't ask you for personal information. This page explains the limited data collected automatically and the third parties involved.
What we collect
We don't directly collect names, emails, or accounts. Like most websites, our analytics and (when enabled) advertising partners automatically receive standard technical data — IP address, browser and device type, pages viewed, and referring site — to measure traffic and, for ads, to serve and limit them.
Analytics
We use Google Analytics, Ahrefs Web Analytics (cookieless), and a self-hosted Squidcode analytics service to understand which pages are useful. This includes a session-replay tool that records anonymized interactions (clicks, scrolling) with input fields masked — we use it to fix usability problems, not to identify you.
Advertising
When advertising is enabled, we use Google AdSense. Google and its partners may use cookies or device identifiers to serve ads based on your prior visits to this and other sites. Google's use of advertising cookies lets it and its partners serve ads to you based on your visits here and elsewhere.
- You can opt out of personalized advertising via Google Ads Settings.
- More on how Google uses data: policies.google.com/technologies/partner-sites.
- Opt out of third-party vendor cookies at aboutads.info.
If you are in the EEA, UK, or Switzerland, we present a consent choice for advertising and analytics cookies before they are used, through a Google-certified consent tool.
Cookies
Cookies are small files a site stores on your device. We use them for analytics and, when enabled, advertising. You can block or delete cookies in your browser settings; the site's information will still work without them.
Children
TapWaterMap is general-audience information and is not directed to children under 13.
Your choices
You can use browser controls to block cookies, opt out of personalized ads at the links above, and use private browsing. Because we hold no account data about you, there is no profile to delete on our side.
