Privacy Policy

Overview

PlantFinder ("we", "us") operates plantfinder.org. We keep things simple: no user accounts, no newsletters, no selling of data. This page explains what limited data is processed when you visit our site and what your rights are.

Data We Collect

We do not ask for or store any personal information such as your name, email address, or payment details. The quiz, search, and compare tools run entirely in your browser — your answers and selections are never sent to a server.

Like most websites, we use analytics to understand which pages are popular so we can improve the site. This involves aggregate, non-identifying usage data such as pages visited, approximate location (country/city level), browser type, and device category.

Cookies & Analytics

We use Google Analytics 4, which sets cookies to distinguish visitors and measure site usage. Google Analytics data is processed by Google LLC. IP addresses are anonymized by Google Analytics 4 by default, and we do not use analytics data for advertising.

You can opt out of Google Analytics with the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on, or by blocking cookies in your browser settings.

Third-Party Services

To render this site, your browser loads resources from third-party providers, which may see your IP address as part of serving the request:

• Google Analytics (usage measurement)
• Google Fonts (typefaces)
• Tailwind CSS CDN and unpkg (page styling and icons)

Your Rights

Depending on where you live (e.g., under the GDPR or CCPA), you may have rights to access, correct, or delete personal data. Because we do not store personal data ourselves, such requests generally concern Google Analytics — but we are happy to help with any question or request you have.
