What this site collects

This site has no accounts, comment forms or sign-up forms. It sets cookies only for the analytics described below. The search, filters, map and comparison run in your browser. What you type or select is not sent to us or to anyone else.

Third parties

Apart from the analytics described below, all scripts, styles and data files are served from this site's own address. No fonts, advertising or social-media resources are loaded. A Content Security Policy blocks connections to any other site.

Analytics (Google Analytics 4)

This site uses Google Analytics 4, a service of Google LLC, to count visits and see which pages are used. Google Analytics sets first-party cookies (such as _ga) and receives the page address, referring page, approximate location derived from the IP address, and browser and device information. IP addresses are not logged or stored by Google Analytics 4. We use the reports only in aggregate to improve the site; we do not use them to identify visitors and we do not sell or share them. You can block these cookies in your browser settings or install the Google Analytics opt-out browser add-on. See how Google uses information from sites that use its services.

Server logs

The hosting provider may keep standard server logs (such as IP address, requested page and time) for security and operations. We do not use them to identify individual visitors.

About the crash data

The crash records are published by Waka Kotahi NZ Transport Agency as a confidentialised open dataset without names, dates or times. This site does not add any personal information to them.

Changes

If analytics or advertising is added, this policy will be updated before it takes effect.
