Privacy Policy

Last updated: September 2026.

What we collect

Cast & Tide is a read-only reference site. We do not require accounts and do not ask for personal information.

Location access

The "Use my location" feature on the home page asks your browser for your approximate position solely to redirect you to the nearest tide chart. Coordinates are processed locally in your browser and are never stored or sent to our servers.

Cookies & advertising

We do not set tracking cookies of our own. If we display advertising in the future (for example Google AdSense), ad partners may use cookies to serve ads based on your visits to this and other sites. You can opt out of personalized advertising at Google Ads Settings.

Server logs & analytics

Our hosting provider (Cloudflare) keeps standard server logs (IP address, user agent, pages requested) for security and performance purposes. We may use privacy-respecting, aggregate analytics to understand which locations are popular.

Email subscriptions

If you subscribe to the weekly fishing-windows email, we store your email address and the location page you subscribed from, solely to send that weekly email. You can unsubscribe at any time via the link in each email; we never share your address with third parties.
