Privacy Policy

Treat this site as a readable directory, not a service that needs anything from you. It covers free and pay-what-you-want experiences across New York City, from a Financial District walk past the 9/11 Memorial to the hills on Governors Island, and it collects nothing from readers along the way. No account, no newsletter gate, no login screen and no comment field. You read about a walk or a museum evening, then either move on or follow a link to GuruWalk or freetour.com to claim a spot. Attention is the whole transaction.

What This Site Measures

Analytics here stay aggregate. The script records which pages get opened, a rough country, a device category, and which outbound walk links earn clicks. Those clicks matter most: if a page about the Brooklyn Bridge walks keeps sending readers onward, the counts show it. No individual is followed, because no name, email, card or document is ever entered on this site. There is nothing personal on file to begin with.

Maps, Cookies And Embeds

Cookies are few, and most are set by outside services rather than by this site. The analytics tool drops a small number of its own. Anything embedded, such as a map showing where a Central Park walk gathers, loads from another company's servers, and any cookie it sets falls under that company's policy. Images and video follow the same pattern. Nothing here trails a reader across the web or builds a profile out of other websites.

All 45 walks here point outward: 44 to GuruWalk and one to freetour.com, where reservations are actually made. Follow a link and that platform may set its own cookie, which is how a booking gets connected back to this site. That connection is the site's only income, and it costs you nothing extra, since every walk runs on tips. Once you click away, the platform's privacy terms take over. The full referral arrangement is set out on the disclosure page.

What Stays Off Limits

• No reader information is sold, rented, traded or passed to any third party, full stop.
• There are no ad networks, no tracking pixels and no retargeting scripts running anywhere on these pages.
• No newsletter or sign-up form exists, so an email address is never asked for or stored.
• Nothing is purchased here. Every one of the 45 walks is booked with the guide on GuruWalk or freetour.com, and the platforms handle confirmations, so this site never sees a booking, a payment or an email address.
• No form appears anywhere on these pages. The contact page simply opens your own email app with the address pre-filled, so the message goes out directly and nothing is stored on this end.

Hosting

Like most websites, these pages sit on a third-party host that keeps standard server logs, IP addresses included, to fend off attacks and abuse. That is the extent of it. Nobody combs those logs to identify a reader, and no effort is made to connect an address to a particular walk page or to the tours someone browses. The logs exist to keep the site up and running, nothing more.

Your Choices

Readers keep the control. Blocking the analytics script with an ad blocker, tracking protection or a private window changes nothing about how the pages function. JavaScript can be turned off too, and nearly everything still reads fine. Anyone wanting no footprint at all can simply skip this site: the 44 GuruWalk walks here, plus the one freetour.com walk, are all listed directly on those platforms, run by the same guides.

Want to know how your data is handled or ask something about a walk? The contact page is the place. For the money side of things, the disclosure details cover how this site earns from GuruWalk bookings without any guide or operator paying to appear here.
