Privacy Policy
Effective date: October 21, 2026
goscv.com ("GoSCV" or the "site") is operated by Axivus Labs ("we," "us"). This policy explains what we collect, why, who helps us handle it, how long we keep it, and your choices.
What we collect
Information you give us
- Contact and business requests: your name, email address, optional phone number, and message, plus any business, listing, edit, claim, or event details you enter. If you are signed in, we link the request to your account.
- Business claims: the name and email address we use to verify that you own or manage the business.
- Newsletter sign-ups: your email address and the date.
- Accounts: your email address and password (stored in hashed form by our sign-in provider), and an optional display name.
- Suggestions: the content of any place suggestion you submit while signed in, linked to your account.
Information collected automatically
- Our own analytics: for each page you view, we record the page address (including any filters in it, but not search text), the page that referred you without its query string, your browser's user-agent string, the time, and a random session identifier kept in your browser's session storage and cleared when you close the tab. This system does not record your IP address, name, email address, or account ID.
- Google Analytics: we use Google Analytics to measure how the site is used. It uses cookies and collects information such as pages viewed, device and browser type, the referring site, and approximate location derived from your IP address. We have turned off Google signals and advertising personalization for Google Analytics, and we have Google remove email addresses and search terms from page addresses before they are stored.
- Advertising: Google AdSense shows ads on GoSCV. We request only non-personalized ads, which are not based on your past browsing. Google and its partners may still use cookies and similar technologies to limit how often you see an ad, measure ads, and prevent fraud, and they receive your IP address, device information, and the page you are viewing.
- Maps: place pages and our map page show Google Maps, which receives your IP address and how you use the map, and may set its own cookies.
- Hosting and security: Cloudflare hosts and delivers the site and measures page performance with a script that sets no cookies. Our hosting and database providers process technical data, including IP addresses, in server logs to deliver and secure the site.
Please do not include sensitive personal information in forms.
How we use it
- To reply to you, verify business claims, and update listings and events.
- To send the newsletter if you signed up.
- To run accounts.
- To understand which pages are used, fix problems, and filter out automated traffic.
- To show the ads that pay for the site.
- To protect the site and comply with the law.
We do not sell your personal information, share it for cross-context behavioral advertising, or use it to build advertising profiles.
Who we share it with
We use these service providers, which handle data on our behalf:
| Provider | What it does | Data involved |
|---|---|---|
| Lovable, with Supabase | Builds the site; hosts our database, accounts, and server functions | All data described above |
| Cloudflare | Hosts and delivers the site; measures page performance | IP address, page requests |
| Brevo | Sends us email alerts about your requests and sign-ups; will send our newsletter | Name, email, phone, and message in alerts; your email address and, where enabled, whether you open or click our emails |
| Google Workspace and Gmail | Our email inbox | Messages and request alerts |
| Google Analytics | Website analytics | The usage data and cookies described above |
| Google AdSense and its ad partners | Shows and measures non-personalized ads | Cookies, device information, IP address, the page you are viewing |
| Google Maps | Maps on place pages and our map page | IP address and map use |
GoSCV uses Google Maps features and content. Your use of them is subject to the Google Maps Additional Terms of Service and the Google Privacy Policy (https://policies.google.com/privacy).
We may also disclose information when the law requires it, to protect rights and safety, or to a successor if the site is transferred, for example to a company we form to run it.
Business listings
GoSCV lists local businesses using information from public sources, business owners, Google Maps, and our editors. Place pages show Google's own map and place details through Google Maps, and some listings show ratings from other websites as of the date we collected them. If you own a listed business and want details corrected or the listing removed, use our contact page or email [email protected].
Analytics across Axivus Labs sites
Axivus Labs runs one analytics system for its sites: axivuslabs.com, goscv.com, cuev.io, taskquarry.com, cratetrax.com, and keptframe.com. When you visit any of them, the page-view record described above is stored in this system. It also records when our own promotions for other Axivus Labs sites are shown or clicked, with the page, the random session identifier, and the time. Records are kept for 13 months and can be viewed only by the site operator.

Your choices about cookies and ads
Use Cookie Settings at the bottom of every page to turn off Google Analytics in this browser. Ads on GoSCV are always non-personalized.
Third-party vendors, including Google, use cookies to serve and measure ads on this site. Because we request non-personalized ads, Google does not use your browsing history to choose the ads you see here. You can manage or opt out of personalized advertising across sites at Google Ads Settings (https://www.google.com/settings/ads), and opt out of some third-party vendors' use of cookies for personalized advertising at https://www.aboutads.info. To learn how Google uses information from sites that use its services, visit https://policies.google.com/technologies/partner-sites.
Visitors in the EEA, the UK, and Switzerland see Google's consent message before advertising cookies are used, and Google Analytics sets no cookies for them unless they choose Allow in Cookie Settings.
Do Not Track and Global Privacy Control
There is no common standard for browser Do Not Track signals, so we do not change our practices when we receive one. We honor Global Privacy Control: if your browser sends a GPC signal, Google Analytics does not load. Ads are non-personalized for everyone.
Tracking by other companies
Google (through Google Analytics, AdSense and its ad partners, and Google Maps) may collect information about your activity on this site over time and across other websites and use it as described in Google's own policies. Other than Google, Cloudflare, and our hosting providers, we do not allow other companies to collect information about your activity on this site.
How long we keep it
- Contact and business requests: up to 24 months, then deleted automatically.
- Business claim details: while the listing is claimed, or until you ask us to delete them.
- Newsletter sign-ups: until you unsubscribe or ask us to delete your address. After you unsubscribe we keep your address on a do-not-email list so we do not email you again.
- Accounts and place suggestions: until you ask us to delete your account.
- Our own analytics: 13 months, then deleted automatically.
- Google Analytics: 14 months, the setting in our Google Analytics account.
- Server logs: under our hosting providers' policies.
Your choices and rights
- Every newsletter we send will include an unsubscribe link. You can also unsubscribe at any time by emailing [email protected].
- Ask to see, correct, or delete the personal information we hold about you by emailing [email protected]. We will respond within 45 days and may ask you to confirm the request from the email address involved.
- Depending on where you live, state privacy laws or, in the EEA and UK, the GDPR may give you additional rights. We will honor them where they apply. If we decline a request, you can appeal by replying to our decision.
- We will not treat you differently for exercising a privacy right.
Visitors outside the United States
We are based in the United States, and our providers store data in the United States. We rely on your consent for Google Analytics, advertising cookies where consent is required, and email sign-ups, and on our legitimate interest in replying to messages, running our own analytics, and keeping the site secure.
Children
GoSCV is a general-audience local guide. It is not directed to children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect their personal information. If you believe a child has sent us information, email us and we will delete it.
Security
Only the site operator can read stored personal information, and the site uses encrypted connections. No system is perfectly secure. If a breach affects your personal information, we will notify you as the law requires.
Changes to this policy
We will post changes here and update the effective date. For material changes we will also show a notice on the site for 30 days and email account holders.
