Embedded maps
A map embedded on another business’s website follows that website’s consent controls. We provide a consent-aware embed option so optional map analytics can remain off until the host website records permission. The host business is responsible for presenting an appropriate notice and passing consent correctly.
Managing cookies
Use Cookie settings on this website to accept, reject or withdraw optional analytics. You can also block or delete cookies in your browser, but blocking essential cookies may prevent account login, checkout or private-map access. Withdrawing consent stops new optional analytics; information already lawfully collected may remain in aggregated reports for the applicable retention period.
