Privacy Policy
Effective date: the day the site launches
CoreyAvenue.com is an independent visitor guide to the shops, restaurants, galleries and services on Corey Avenue in St. Pete Beach, Florida. This page explains what information we collect when you use the site, why, and what we do with it. We keep it short because we collect very little.
What we collect
When you just browse. You can use every page of CoreyAvenue.com without telling us who you are. Like most websites, our hosting and analytics tools automatically record basic technical information about visits, such as the pages viewed, the date and time, the referring site, your browser and device type, and an approximate location based on your IP address (city or region level). We use this only in summary form to understand how the site is used.
When you use the "Update my business" form. The form asks for:
- the business name
- the type of request (add a business, fix details, send photos, report a closure, or a privacy or other question)
- what you'd like changed
- your name and role
- an email address or phone number so we can follow up
We collect this only when you choose to send it.
When you contact us. If you send us a privacy or other question through the same form, we receive what you include in it, plus the contact details you give us.
We do not ask for, and you should not send us, payment details, government ID numbers or other sensitive personal information.
How we use it
- To review and act on business update requests, and to contact you about your request.
- To answer your questions.
- To keep the guide accurate.
- To understand which pages are useful and fix what isn't, using visit statistics.
- To keep the site secure and working.
We do not sell, rent or trade your personal information, and we do not use it for advertising.
Who handles it
We use a small number of service providers to run the site. They process information on our behalf and under their own privacy terms:
- Website hosting and visit statistics: Lovable, which hosts the site and provides its built-in visit statistics.
- Forms and email: Google (the "Update my business" form runs on Google Forms; responses are stored in our Google account and sent to us by email).
We may also share information if the law requires it, or to protect the rights, safety or property of CoreyAvenue.com, our visitors or others.
Cookies and similar tools
CoreyAvenue.com does not set cookies, and our visit statistics store nothing in your browser. The one thing the site saves on your device is whether you chose "Big map" or "Big list" on the map, so it opens the same way next time. That setting stays in your browser and is never sent to us; you can clear it by clearing your browser's site data.
Links to other sites
CoreyAvenue.com links to many other websites, including each business's own site and social media, Google Maps for directions, transit agencies and the Sunday Market's Facebook page. Those sites have their own privacy practices, which we don't control. Please review their policies when you visit them.
How long we keep it
We keep form submissions for as long as we need them to keep the guide accurate and handle follow-up, and then delete them. Visit statistics are kept in summary form.
Your choices
You can ask us to see, correct or delete the personal information you've sent us through the Update my business form (choose "Privacy or other question"). We'll respond within a reasonable time.
Children
CoreyAvenue.com is a general-audience guide and is not directed to children under 13. We don't knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If you believe a child has sent us information, tell us through the Update my business form (choose "Privacy or other question") and we'll delete it.
Security
We use reasonable measures to protect the information we receive. No website or online service is completely secure, so please don't send us anything sensitive.
Changes to this policy
We may update this policy as the site changes. We'll post the new version here with a new effective date.
Contact
Questions about this policy or your information: use the Update my business form (choose "Privacy or other question").
