Privacy Policy

LaundromatRadar (“we,” “us,” or “our”) operates the website at laundromatradar.com (the “Site”), a public directory of laundromats and laundry services. This Privacy Policy explains what information we collect, how we use it, and the choices you have. By using the Site, you agree to the practices described here.

Information we collect

The Site does not require you to create an account, and we do not intentionally collect sensitive personal information. We collect:

• Information you provide. When you submit our contact form, we collect the name, email address, and message you enter so we can respond to your inquiry.
• Usage and device data. Like most websites, we automatically collect standard analytics data such as the pages you visit, the referring website, your approximate location, browser type, device type, and IP address. This is collected through the third-party analytics services described below.

Cookies and analytics

We use analytics tools to understand how visitors use the Site so we can improve it:

• Google Analytics may set cookies and collect usage data. You can opt out using the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on or your browser’s cookie controls.
• Vercel Web Analytics, which measures aggregate, privacy-friendly usage metrics without using cookies.

You can control or disable cookies through your browser settings. Disabling cookies will not prevent you from using the Site.

Third-party services

We rely on trusted third parties to operate the Site. Each processes data under its own privacy policy:

• Vercel— website hosting and analytics.
• Supabase— the database that stores our directory listing content.
• Google Analytics— usage analytics.
• Google Maps— embedded maps on listing pages; loading a map may share data with Google.
• Resend— delivers contact-form messages to our inbox.

How we use information

• To operate, maintain, and improve the Site.
• To respond to messages you send us.
• To understand aggregate usage trends and site performance through analytics.
• To protect the Site against fraud, abuse, and security threats.

How we share information

We do not sell your personal information. We share information only with the service providers listed above, to the extent needed to operate the Site, and when required by law or to protect our legal rights.

Data retention

We keep contact-form messages only as long as needed to address your inquiry and for reasonable record-keeping. Analytics data is retained according to the retention settings of the analytics providers.

Your choices and rights

Depending on where you live, you may have rights to access, correct, or delete personal information we hold about you, or to opt out of certain processing. To make a request, contact us through our contact page. You can also opt out of analytics as described above.

Third-party links and listings

The Site links to laundromat and laundry-service businesses and to external websites we do not control. Directory listing details are compiled from publicly available sources and may not always be current. We are not responsible for the content or privacy practices of third-party websites; please review their policies directly.

Children’s privacy

The Site is not directed to children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If you believe a child has provided us information, please contact us and we will delete it.

Changes to this policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. When we do, we will revise the effective date above. Your continued use of the Site after changes take effect constitutes acceptance of the updated policy.
