Your privacy at MunchRanks

Updated September 11, 2026.

Newsletter signups

When you join, we store your email, consent and signup time, along with the city and food preferences selected at signup. Emails remain pending until we connect a newsletter service and verify addresses. We do not send newsletters yet.

Optional visitor insights

Only after you allow insights, we record a random visit identifier, approximate city and country when supplied by our hosting provider, masked IP network, general device type, referring domain, selected city, food filters, keyword, ranking choice, and estimated active time while the page is visible and focused. We do not store the full IP address or precise GPS coordinates in analytics. Approximate network location may be unavailable or inaccurate.

If you subscribe during a consented visit, that visit can be linked to your signup. Anonymous visitors have no email attached. Your choice is stored on your device; a secure visit cookie lasts up to 24 hours. Global Privacy Control disables optional insights.

Your choices and retention

Browse normally with insights off. Use “Change privacy choice” near the bottom of the home page to withdraw consent and delete the current visit. The dashboard shows visitor insights from the last 90 days. Older visits are removed when a new consented visit starts; subscriber records remain until removal or migration to a newsletter provider. Ask for access or deletion at aamirsayeed@gmail.com.

Who can access this?

Subscriber and analytics data are available only through an owner-authorized dashboard. The site uses its hosting database for storage. Google Maps and other linked services have their own privacy practices when you use them. We do not sell this information.
