Privacy Policy

Last updated: December 2025

At Linnce ("we"), we take user privacy very seriously, especially since our website, Where is Santa Claus (hosted at whereissantaclaus.com), is enjoyed by families and children.

1. Use of Geolocation

Our application requests access to your location solely for the "VIP Target (Your House)" feature, which places a marker on the map showing Santa's arrival in your area.

• Local Processing: Location data is processed exclusively on your device (browser). We do not send, store, or share your GPS coordinates with any server of our own or third parties.
• Not Mandatory: You can deny location permission and the site will work perfectly (your house marker simply won't appear).

2. Cookies and Advertising (Google AdSense)

We use Google AdSense to display ads and fund the maintenance of the site.

• Google and its partners use cookies to serve ads based on your prior visits to this or other websites.
• You can opt out of personalized advertising in Google Ad Settings.
• We have configured our ads with the "Child-Directed Treatment" tag to maximize privacy and ensure a safe environment.

3. Child Protection

This website does not knowingly collect personally identifiable information (such as names, real addresses, or emails) from children under 13. The experience is anonymous and requires no registration.

4. Local Storage

We use a small amount of memory in your browser ("Local Storage") solely to remember if you have already accepted the cookie notice, preventing it from appearing repeatedly every time you visit.

5. Contact

If you have any questions about this policy, you can contact the person responsible at Linnce at:
