Privacy Policy
Effective date:
Overview
TapWaterGuide.org is a free informational reference. We do not require accounts, do not collect names or email addresses through the site, and do not sell any data. This policy explains the limited data collected automatically when you visit.
Analytics
We use Google Analytics 4 to understand aggregate site usage — which pages are visited, from which countries, and on which device types. Google Analytics uses cookies and collects data such as your approximate location (city level), browser type, and pages viewed. IP addresses are not logged or stored by us.
You can opt out of Google Analytics with the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on, or by using a content blocker or your browser's tracking protection.
Cookies
The only cookies set by this site are those used by Google Analytics for anonymous usage measurement. We set no advertising, personalization, or tracking cookies of our own.
Third-Party Services
Pages load fonts from Google Fonts and analytics scripts from Google. These services may receive standard technical request data (such as your IP address) as part of serving those files. See Google's Privacy Policy for how Google handles this data. External links to sources such as WHO, EPA, EWG, and CDC lead to sites with their own privacy policies.
Your Rights
Depending on your jurisdiction (including the EU/EEA under GDPR and California under CCPA), you may have rights to access, correct, or delete personal data. Because we collect no directly identifying information, such requests generally apply to Google Analytics data, which you can control through the opt-out tools above. For any privacy question or request, contact us and we will respond promptly.
Changes to This Policy
If our data practices change (for example, if advertising is introduced), this policy will be updated and the effective date revised before those changes take effect.
