Privacy Policy
Last updated: 10 June 2026
This Privacy Policy explains how the Lombard Street Guide website ("we", "us", "the Site") handles information when you visit. We are an independent travel information website and we aim to collect as little personal data as possible.
1. Who we are
Lombard Street Guide is an informational travel website about Lombard Street in San Francisco. For any privacy questions you can contact us at privacy@lombards.app.
2. Information we collect
We do not ask you to create an account, and we do not knowingly collect names, addresses, payment details or other directly identifying information. The information that may be processed when you visit includes:
- Technical data automatically sent by your browser — such as IP address, browser type, device type, and the pages you view. This is standard server log information used to operate and secure the Site.
- Analytics data — only if you consent to non‑essential cookies. This helps us understand which pages are useful to visitors. It is aggregated and not used to identify you personally.
3. How we use information
- To deliver the website and keep it secure and available.
- To understand, in aggregate, how the Site is used so we can improve our travel content (only with your cookie consent).
- To comply with legal obligations.
4. Cookies
We use a small number of cookies and similar technologies. Non‑essential (analytics) cookies are only set after you click "Accept all" in our cookie banner. Full details are in our Cookie Policy. You can change your choice at any time using the "Manage Cookies" link in the footer.
5. Advertising
If advertising is shown on this Site, advertising partners (such as Google) may use cookies to serve and measure ads. These are only enabled after you consent to non‑essential cookies. You can learn more and manage personalised advertising via Google Ads Settings and aboutads.info.
6. Sharing your information
We do not sell your personal information. We may share limited technical or analytics data with service providers (such as hosting and analytics providers) who process it on our behalf, and only as needed to run the Site. We may also disclose information if required by law.
7. Data retention
Server logs are kept only for as long as needed for security and operational purposes. Aggregated analytics data is retained according to our analytics provider's standard retention settings.
8. Your rights
Depending on where you live (for example under the EU/UK GDPR or the California CCPA/CPRA), you may have the right to access, correct, delete, or restrict the use of your personal data, and to withdraw consent for cookies. To exercise any of these rights, email privacy@lombards.app.
9. International visitors
This Site may be operated from, and data processed in, countries other than your own. Where required, we take steps to ensure appropriate safeguards for any transfer of personal data.
10. Children's privacy
This Site is intended for a general audience and is not directed at children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children.
