🌐 Third-Party Services

Map Services:

We use OpenStreetMap for displaying turtle locations. Map tiles are loaded directly from their servers. We don't track your interactions with the map.

Images:

Turtle images are hosted on Unsplash. When you view images, your browser connects directly to Unsplash servers. We don't control or receive any data from this.

Fonts:

We use Google Fonts for typography. Font files are loaded from Google's CDN. We receive no data from this service.

PHP Server:

Our PHP code runs server-side without collecting visitor data. No $_SESSION, $_COOKIE, or database connections are used to track users.

Note: For maximum privacy, you can use browser extensions to block external resources. The website will still function.
