Privacy Policy

About this policy

This policy explains how World Drives & Walks handles information when you visit worlddrivesandwalk.com. The public website does not offer visitor accounts, comments, purchases, or a mailing-list signup, and we do not sell personal information.

Website analytics

We use Google Analytics to understand how visitors find and use the site. Google Analytics may collect page and interaction data, session statistics, approximate location, referring source, and browser, device, and operating-system information. It may use first-party cookies, including _ga, to distinguish visitors and sessions.

We use these reports to understand audience interests, improve the photography experience, and diagnose site performance. We do not intentionally send names, email addresses, or other directly identifying information to Google Analytics. You can learn about Google's practices and controls in the Google Analytics privacy information.

Hosting and security

The website is hosted using Amazon Web Services, including content delivery and security services. Like most web services, these systems may process technical data such as IP address, request time, requested URL, browser information, and security signals to deliver the site, prevent abuse, troubleshoot problems, and protect the service.

Administrator access and social publishing

The restricted upload area is for the site administrator. An administrator email address is processed by Amazon Cognito only to send a one-time sign-in code and authenticate access. The site's Meta integration is used only to publish the administrator's photographs and captions to the World Drives & Walks Facebook Page and Instagram professional account. It does not sign visitors into Meta or access a visitor's Facebook or Instagram account.

External links

The site links to Instagram, Facebook, and other external websites. Those services operate under their own privacy policies, and their practices are not controlled by World Drives & Walks.

Retention and your choices

Analytics and operational information is retained only as needed for the purposes above and according to the settings and retention controls of the service providers. You can delete or block cookies through your browser and can use Google's available analytics opt-out controls. Blocking analytics cookies should not prevent you from viewing the photographs.

If you have a question about this policy or a privacy request, contact World Drives & Walks through the linked Instagram profile or Facebook page.

Changes to this policy

We may update this policy when the website or its services change. The effective date at the top of this page will identify the latest version.
