COMMUNITY GUIDELINES

Share with care.

What we ask of contributors

Describe your own experience honestly. Be specific and respectful, avoid personal attacks, and upload only photos you have permission to share. Do not include anyone’s private contact details or health information in public feedback. Owners must not review their own businesses.

Before your contribution appears

Reviews, photos, new places, corrections, and owner replies need moderator approval. Edits are checked again; the previous approved version stays visible while an edit is pending. You can report published content for review.

Your account and contributions

We store your email, display name, sign-in information, and contributions to operate your account and moderate the directory. Your display name is public beside approved feedback; your email and ownership-check details are private. Admins can access account information to manage the community.

Photos and location

Photos are resized and re-encoded to remove metadata before storage. Your device location is requested only when you select Near me and is used in your browser for approximate distances. It is not saved to your profile.

Cookies and external services

Sign-in uses essential session cookies. Google sign-in, external map providers, restaurant links, and sponsor links involve the respective providers. We do not include advertising trackers or analytics scripts.

Removing your data

Use Account to withdraw pending submissions, remove reviews from public view, or delete your account. Account deletion removes your login and public personal contributions; rejected photos are cleaned up by a daily job. Minimal moderation records may remain without your account identity.

Before public launch, the community operator must add their contact details and final retention policy here.
