Cookie Policy

Last updated: 9 October 2026

1. What cookies are

Cookies are small text files stored on your device when you visit a website. They help the site remember you and understand how it is used.

2. Cookies we use

Strictly necessary cookies

These are essential for the service to work and cannot be switched off. They keep you signed in across pages and remember your preferences.

• Session cookie — used to keep you signed in with your Google account so your saved places persist between pages.

Analytics cookies

These help us understand how AreaWise is used in aggregate — which pages are visited and how the site performs — so we can improve it. We use Google Tag Manager and Microsoft Clarity for this purpose. This data is aggregated and does not identify you individually.

What we do not use

AreaWise uses no advertising cookies and no third-party advertising trackers. We are a free, ad-free service and we do not use your data to target advertising.

3. Managing cookies

Most browsers let you view, block or delete cookies in their settings. You can usually find this under “Settings” or “Preferences” → “Privacy”. Blocking strictly necessary cookies will prevent you from signing in and saving places. You can opt out of analytics at any time through your browser’s cookie controls.
