Privacy
Updated October 7, 2026.
You can browse public restaurant, event and service listings without an account. Public business addresses and phone numbers are used to help you contact the business.
Accounts and community
When account sign-in is enabled, Elmira Now uses your identity and email for saved places, plans and community features. Community posts and notices are reviewed before publication. Do not include someone else’s private contact information without permission. Connected account and community data are stored through Supabase.
Business photos and Google Maps
When you request Google business photos and details, Elmira Now sends the listed business’s public name and address or Google place ID to Google Maps Platform. It does not send your account profile, email, saved plans or precise location for this lookup. Google photos and details are displayed in the current view and are not saved in Elmira Now’s catalog or your saved places. Your browser or device requests the returned image from Google, which can receive ordinary connection information such as your IP address.
Google Maps features are subject to the Google Privacy Policy. You can also open the business directly on Google Maps instead of loading photos in the app.
Ads, purchases and notifications
Native ads and personalization follow the app’s advertising choices and device permissions. Google AdMob handles ad delivery and consent where configured. The one-time ad-free upgrade uses the platform store and RevenueCat; Elmira Now does not collect your card details. Notifications follow the categories and device permissions you choose.
Use “Suggest a correction” in the app to report a problem with a public listing. Advertising preferences are available under “Privacy choices.”
