What Are Cookies?
Cookies are small text files that a website stores on your device when you visit. They are widely used to make websites work efficiently and to provide information to the site owner. Cookies do not give us access to your device or any personal information beyond what you choose to share.
Cookies We Use
We keep our cookie use minimal and purposeful. Here is a breakdown of the types of cookies this site uses:
Strictly Necessary Cookies
These cookies are required for the site to function correctly. They include session cookies that remember your choices within a single visit — for example, your preferred map style (satellite or street view) while navigating the interactive map. Without these cookies, core features of the site will not work. They cannot be disabled.
Analytics Cookies
We use privacy-friendly analytics to understand how visitors use this site — which pages are popular, how long people stay, and how they navigate between sections. This data is fully anonymized and is never linked to your personal identity. We do not use Google Analytics or other services that build advertising profiles. You can opt out of analytics cookies via your browser settings.
Preference Cookies
If you use the interactive map, we store your chosen map style (satellite or street view) in a preference cookie so your choice is remembered the next time you visit. This cookie contains no personal data and expires after 30 days.
What We Don't Do
- We do not use advertising or retargeting cookies.
- We do not use tracking cookies that follow you across other websites.
- We do not sell cookie data or behavioral data to any third parties.
- We do not use social media cookies or embedded social tracking pixels.
How to Control Cookies
You can control and manage cookies in your browser settings. Most browsers allow you to refuse cookies, delete existing cookies, or be notified when a new cookie is set. Please note that disabling certain cookies may affect the functionality of this site — for example, your map preferences may not be saved between visits.
