Privacy policy

Last updated: November 12, 2026

Handy Campsites has no user accounts, contact forms or newsletter, and we do not ask you to enter personal details directly. This page explains what data is processed when you visit the site.

Who is responsible

Contact: hello@handycampsites.com

Hosting

The site is hosted by Cloudflare. To deliver pages and protect the site from abuse, Cloudflare processes technical data such as your IP address, browser type and the pages requested. See the Cloudflare privacy policy.

Visitor statistics

We use Cloudflare Web Analytics to count visits. It does not use cookies or local storage and does not track you across sites. We only see aggregated figures such as page views, countries and referring sites.

Maps

When you open a country page, map images are loaded from tile.openstreetmap.org and the map software from cdnjs (Cloudflare). Your browser sends your IP address to these servers so they can respond. If you use the “Near me” button, your browser asks for your location; it is only used on your device to sort the list and is never sent to us. Links to directions open Google Maps, and links to campsite websites take you to those sites: their own privacy policies apply there.

Some places show a photo from Wikimedia Commons. The image is loaded from upload.wikimedia.org, so your browser sends your IP address to Wikimedia. The “Street view” link opens Mapillary, where Mapillary’s own privacy policy applies.

Route planner

When you use the route planner, the place names you type are sent through our server to Photon (komoot) to find matching places, and the start and end points are sent through our server to openrouteservice (HeiGIT) to calculate the route. We do not store these searches.

Campsite data

Campsite details, including contact information that operators have published, come from OpenStreetMap. If you want information about your business changed or removed, edit it on OpenStreetMap or email us.

Your rights

Under the GDPR you can ask what personal data we hold about you, ask for it to be corrected or deleted, and object to its processing. Email hello@handycampsites.com. You can also complain to a data protection authority, such as the one in your country or the Estonian Data Protection Inspectorate (aki.ee).
