Terms and policies.
The plain version of how Allez works, what it keeps, and where its information comes from.
Using Allez
Allez is free to use. Suggestions are our opinions, written in good faith. Places close, hours change and events move, so check the venue’s own page before you travel. Travel times are straight-line estimates from where you are exploring, so they read short on a busy evening.
Events carry a source and a verified date, and drop off on their own once they have passed.
Privacy
There are no accounts and no cookies. Your saved places, ratings, chosen city, location and light or dark setting stay in your own browser’s storage, and clearing your browser data removes them.
Some features ask other services for information:
- Weather and air quality come from Open-Meteo, which is sent the coordinates of the area you are exploring.
- Finding a place or using your location asks OpenStreetMap’s Nominatim service to turn a search or your position into an address. Your browser asks your permission before sharing your position.
- Visit counts use GoatCounter, without cookies: the page, the screen width and the referring site, never the referring page. Nothing is counted under Do Not Track or Global Privacy Control. To stop counting this browser, add
#no-countto any Allez address.
