Cookies, verification tools, and ad technology
LitterMeNot uses limited cookies for protected internal sessions and may use verification tools on public forms to reduce automated abuse. If advertising is enabled later, Google and other ad partners may use cookies or similar local storage to show or measure ads, limit repeat display, and support personalization where allowed.
If personalized ads are enabled for visitors in the EEA, the UK, or Switzerland, consent must be gathered through a Google-certified consent management platform before those ads are served. You can also control or clear cookies in your browser settings and visit Google's ad settings to manage ad personalization.
Third-party ads and opt-out choices
When ads are active, Google may use data collected from this site and elsewhere to serve more relevant ads. Visitors can learn more about how Google uses information in advertising and can opt out of personalized ads through Google's ad settings. Non-personalized ads may still use limited technical data such as device type, coarse location, or page context when allowed by law.
Retention and follow-up
Reports and submissions may be kept long enough to support moderation, map quality, contributor history, abuse review, and legitimate follow-up. If you need to ask about something you submitted, use the contact page with enough detail to identify the request.
