Who we are

GeoPlace (geoplace.org) is a geographic reference site. Contact: contact@geoplace.org.

What data we collect

We do not ask you to create an account or submit personal data. We use third-party analytics that collect usage data automatically — your IP address, device and browser, pages viewed, referrer, and on-page behaviour (clicks, scrolls, and session recordings via Yandex Webvisor).

Analytics & cookies

These services set cookies and may process your data outside your country:

• Yandex Metrica (incl. Webvisor session recording, clickmap)
• Google Analytics
• LiveInternet (counter.yadro.ru)

You can block cookies in your browser settings, use the Google Analytics opt-out, or browse in private mode.

Advertising

We may display ads (e.g. Google AdSense) in the future. Ad networks use cookies to serve and measure ads. This policy will be updated before advertising is enabled.

Data sources

Place data is from GeoNames (CC BY 4.0); maps from OpenStreetMap; weather from open-meteo. These are public datasets, not your personal data.

Your rights

Under GDPR and similar laws you may request access to or deletion of any data we hold about you. Email contact@geoplace.org.

Changes

We may update this policy. The date above reflects the latest version.
