Privacy Policy

Last updated: February 2026

Map With Radius is committed to protecting your privacy. This policy explains what data we collect (and don't collect) when you use our mapping tools.

What We Do NOT Collect

  • No user accounts: We do not require registration or login. There are no usernames, passwords, or profiles.
  • No personal information: We do not collect names, email addresses, or any personally identifiable information.
  • No location data stored: When you use the "Use My Location" feature, your coordinates are processed entirely in your browser. Your location is never transmitted to or stored on our servers.
  • No tracking cookies: We do not use advertising cookies or third-party tracking services.

What We May Collect

  • Basic server logs: Like most websites, our hosting provider may log basic request information (IP addresses, timestamps, pages visited) for security and operational purposes. These logs are not used for tracking or marketing.
  • Anonymous analytics: We may use privacy-respecting analytics (such as Plausible Analytics) to understand aggregate usage patterns. These services do not use cookies and do not track individual users.

Third-Party Services

Our tools use the following third-party services:

  • OpenStreetMap tile servers: When you view the map, tiles are loaded from OpenStreetMap's servers. These requests may be logged per OpenStreetMap's tile usage policy.
  • Nominatim geocoding: When you search for an address, the query is sent to OpenStreetMap's Nominatim service. See Nominatim's documentation for their privacy practices.

Browser Geolocation

When you click "Use My Location," your browser asks for permission to access your device's location. This permission is controlled by your browser settings. If you grant permission, your coordinates are used locally in your browser to center the map — they are never sent to our servers.

Shareable Links

When you create a shareable link, the map coordinates and settings are encoded in the URL itself. Anyone with the link can see these coordinates. No data is stored on our servers — the link contains all the information needed to recreate the map.

Data Retention

Since we do not collect personal data, there is no personal data to retain or delete. Server logs are automatically deleted after 30 days.

Changes to This Policy

We may update this privacy policy from time to time. Changes will be posted on this page with an updated revision date.
