How to control them
- In your browser: you can block or delete cookies at any time: Chrome, Firefox, Safari, Edge.
- Google ads: turn off personalized ads in My Ad Center or Google Ads Settings. You will still see ads, but they will not be based on your activity.
- Industry opt-out: WebChoices (Digital Advertising Alliance) lets you opt out of interest-based ads from many companies at once.
- Blocking all cookies does not stop the site from working. Only maps from Google may need cookies to load correctly.
Visitors from the EEA, the UK and Switzerland
Google requires that, for visitors in those regions, personalized ads be shown only after consent collected through a certified consent tool. Without consent, Google serves non-personalized or limited ads, which still use cookies for frequency capping and fraud prevention. This site does not show a cookie banner of its own; if one appears for ads, it is the consent message required by Google.
