This policy explains what information Mark the Spots (“we”, “us”) collects when you use markthespots.com, how we use it and the choices you have.
Information you give us
When you use our contact or listing forms, we collect the details you enter, such as your name, email address, phone number, business name and message. We use these only to reply to you and to manage listings or partnerships you ask about. Form messages are emailed to our team and a copy is kept in our website admin.
Information collected automatically
- Server and security logs: our hosting provider records basic technical information such as IP address, browser type and pages requested, to keep the site secure and working.
- Click counts: when you click a booking, partner or website link, we count the click against that listing so we can report totals to businesses. We do not attach your identity to these counts.
- Cookies: we use a small number of cookies to run the site. If we show ads or use analytics, those services may set their own cookies, as described below.
Advertising
We may show ads provided by Google AdSense. Google and its partners may use cookies to show ads based on your visits to this and other websites. You can manage personalised advertising at Google Ad Settings and learn more at How Google uses information from sites that use its services. Where required, we will ask for your consent before personalised ads are shown.
Affiliate and partner links
When you follow an affiliate or partner link, the site you land on may use cookies or tracking codes to record that you came from us. Their own privacy policies apply once you leave our site.
How long we keep information
We keep contact messages for as long as needed to deal with your enquiry and any ongoing relationship, then delete them. Aggregated click counts are kept for reporting.
Your choices and rights
You can ask us what personal information we hold about you, ask us to correct or delete it, or ask us to stop contacting you. You can also block or delete cookies in your browser settings.

For any privacy question or request, use our contact form or email list@markthespots.com.
