Short version: we set one cookie, it keeps you logged in, and that is the whole list. There is no tracking, no advertising and no analytics on this site, which is why you were not made to dismiss a banner before reading this page.

Keeps you signed in as you move between pages, and holds the plan you picked while you complete a listing submission. It carries a random identifier and nothing else. | When you close your browser |
This is what the law calls a strictly necessary cookie. The site cannot offer accounts without it, so it does not require your consent and there is nothing for you to opt into or out of.
To be specific rather than vague about it, this site runs none of the following:
When a listing page is viewed we record that a view happened, so the business can see how much interest its profile is getting. To do this without keeping track of visitors, your IP address is passed through a one-way hash before it is stored. We keep no raw IP address for this, the hash cannot be reversed, and no cookie is involved.
Some listings include a location map or a promotional video. Those are hosted by Google, YouTube and similar providers, and loading them would send your IP address to that provider and let it set its own cookies.
So we do not load them automatically. Maps and videos appear as a placeholder with a button, and nothing is requested from the provider until you press it. If you never press it, the provider never learns you were here.
Once you do load one, that provider's own cookies and privacy terms apply to the embedded frame, not ours. Each map and each video is separate, so loading one does not load the rest.
Everything the site needs to display, including the icon font and the stylesheet, is served from our own domain. No content delivery network sees your IP address when you browse the site.
Consent banners exist because most sites load tracking and advertising technology that legally requires permission. We do not load any, and a strictly necessary session cookie does not require consent, so a banner would ask you to agree to nothing while making the site more annoying to use.
If that ever changes, we will not add it quietly. Any cookie beyond the one listed above would come with a proper consent mechanism, a working refusal option, and an update to this page.
Every browser lets you view, block and delete cookies through its settings. Blocking the session cookie will stop you from logging in and managing a listing, but the public directory will still work perfectly well for browsing.
