Privacy Policy

We use Google Analytics 4 to understand which pages are useful, how readers move through the guide, what devices and browsers are used, and how visitors arrive at the site. GA4 may process page paths, referrers, approximate location, device and browser information, event data, and pseudonymous identifiers.

Analytics is used in aggregate to improve editorial planning, navigation, search visibility, and technical performance. We do not use GA4 to identify individual readers, and we do not intentionally send names, email addresses, payment details, or message contents to GA4.

The site is hosted on Vercel. Vercel and related infrastructure may process standard request and security logs, including IP address, user agent, requested URL, referring URL, status code, timestamp, and similar diagnostic data.

Hosting logs are used to deliver pages, protect the site, diagnose errors, measure performance, and investigate abuse. Retention and infrastructure handling are governed by Vercel's platform controls and policies.

Crete Guide does not require account cookies to read public pages. Google Analytics 4 may set cookies or use similar browser storage to distinguish visits and understand usage patterns. Vercel or browser-level infrastructure may also use limited technical identifiers needed for delivery, security, or diagnostics.

You can limit cookies through your browser settings, privacy extensions, or Google analytics opt-out tools. Blocking analytics cookies should not prevent public guide pages from loading.

If you email us, we will receive the information you choose to send, including your email address and message contents. We use correspondence to answer reader questions, review factual corrections, and maintain the guide.

Do not send sensitive personal information, travel documents, payment information, or confidential material by email.
