Your Privacy Matters
We don't collect data we don't need, we don't sell any data, and we don't track you across the web. Your trust is our priority.

Information We Do NOT Collect
Unlike many websites, treadNext does not:
- Track your browsing activity across other websites
- Sell your data to advertisers or data brokers
- Share your information with third parties for marketing purposes
- Use invasive tracking technologies or fingerprinting
- Create advertising profiles based on your behavior
Information We May Process
To provide our Service, we may temporarily process the following information:
Location Data (Optional)
If you choose to enable location services, we use your location solely to show you nearby tire shops. This data is:
- Processed only in your browser
- Never sent to our servers or stored
- Cached locally in your browser session for convenience
- Deleted when you close your browser
You can use treadNext without sharing your location. Location access is entirely optional and can be revoked at any time through your browser settings.
Account Information (If You Create an Account)
If you choose to create an account, we collect only the minimum information necessary:
- Email address (for account access and important notifications)
- Name (optional, for personalization)
- Password (stored securely using industry-standard encryption)
We do not require you to create an account to use treadNext. Account creation is optional and only provides additional features like saving preferences.
How We Use Information
Any information we process is used solely to:
- Provide the tire and shop discovery service
- Show you relevant search results
- Improve the functionality of our Service
- Respond to your support requests
Data Storage & Security
We implement appropriate technical and organizational measures to protect any data we process. Your preferences are stored locally in your browser using standard web storage APIs, not on our servers.
Third-Party Services
Our Service may display information from third-party sources (such as shop listings and tire information). When you interact with external links or services, their own privacy policies apply.
Children's Privacy
Our Service is not directed to children under 13. We do not knowingly collect information from children. If you believe we have inadvertently collected information from a child, please contact us immediately.
Your Rights
You have the right to:
- Access any personal data we hold about you
- Request deletion of your account and associated data
- Opt out of any optional data collection
- Withdraw consent for location access at any time
Changes to This Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. We will notify you of any significant changes by posting a notice on our Service. Your continued use of the Service after changes are posted constitutes acceptance of the updated policy.

Privacy by Design
We believe in privacy by design. We don't collect data we don't need, we don't sell any data, and we don't track you across the web. Your location stays in your browser, and your trust is our priority.
treadNext reserves the right to update this policy at any time. Changes will be posted on this page with a revised date.
