Privacy | U-Pick Near

Updated November 4, 2026

Short version: no accounts, no ad trackers, and we never sell data.

Analytics. We use privacy-friendly web analytics that count page views without cookies or personal profiles.
Outbound clicks. When you click a link to another site (or one of our Feature or Claim buttons), we log the page, the link without its query string and the kind of link. No IP address, cookie or other personal data.
Newsletter. If you sign up, we store your email address, the page you signed up on and the date, with our hosting provider, only to send the email. We don't sell it. Every email has a one-click unsubscribe, and you can ask us to delete your address any time.
Contact and add-farm forms. If you send a form, we store what you type (name, email, topic, farm, message) with our hosting provider so we can reply. We don't sell it or add you to the newsletter.
Payments. Featured spots are paid through Stripe, which has its own privacy policy. We never see your card number.
Saved list and "near me". Your saved farms and any location you share for "Farms near me" stay in your browser. We don't receive them.
Weather and maps. Farm and city pages fetch a forecast from the US National Weather Service (api.weather.gov) using the farm's or city's coordinates, never yours, and keep it in your browser for a few hours. Map tiles load from OpenFreeMap, which sees a normal web request.
Email. If you email us, we keep the conversation to reply and for our records.
