Information We Collect

QuakeScout uses privacy-friendly, aggregate Vercel Analytics data to understand site usage. We do not sell personal information or build advertising profiles.

Location Access

The “near me” tools request browser geolocation only after you choose to use them. Coordinates are used to request nearby earthquake results and are not stored in a QuakeScout account.

Third-Party Services

QuakeScout requests earthquake data from USGS and map tiles from OpenFreeMap/OpenMapTiles, with geographic data credited to OpenStreetMap contributors. Requests to those providers are governed by their respective privacy policies.
