ParkMoto is a free motorcycle parking bay finder for London. It runs entirely in your browser. There's no account, no registration, and no login. You open it, find a bay, and go.
We use Umami Cloud to count page visits. Umami is a privacy-friendly analytics tool that doesn't use cookies, doesn't collect personal data, and doesn't track you across websites. It tells us how many people visited the site and which pages they looked at. That's it.
Umami doesn't store your IP address, doesn't fingerprint your browser, and doesn't build a profile about you. It's compliant with GDPR, CCPA, and PECR without needing a cookie banner.
You can read more about how Umami handles privacy at umami.is/privacy.
ParkMoto can use your device's GPS, but only when you choose to. The app asks for location permission when you tap the report button (the "+" icon). If you say no, the app still works. You just can't report a bay at your current location.
Your GPS coordinates are processed in your browser. They're included in the report email if you choose to send one, so we know where the bay is. We don't store your location on any server, and we don't track where you go.
If you take a photo of a parking bay through the app, it's stored in your browser's local storage on your device. Photos never leave your phone or computer unless you choose to send them. We don't have access to your photos.
When you search for a location, ParkMoto sends your query to Nominatim (OpenStreetMap's geocoding service) or Photon (a backup geocoder by Komoot). These are third-party services with their own privacy policies. We don't log your searches.
ParkMoto loads motorcycle bay data from OpenStreetMap via the Overpass API and map tiles from CARTO. These are third-party services that may log standard web request data (IP address, timestamp). We don't control those logs.
ParkMoto doesn't set any cookies. It uses your browser's local storage to cache map data (so searches load faster) and to store your favourited bays and any photos you've taken. This data stays on your device. You can clear it any time through your browser settings.
If you send us an email (bay reports, questions, feedback), we'll have your email address because you sent it to us. We won't add you to any mailing list, and we won't share your email with anyone.
ParkMoto isn't aimed at children, but there's nothing to worry about. We don't collect personal data from anyone, regardless of age.
If we change this policy, we'll update the date at the top. We won't make it worse. The core commitment stays the same: we don't collect personal data and we don't track you.
