01

Information we collect

SAFE.LONDON does not require you to create an account, register or provide your name or email address.

When you participate in neighbourhood safety ratings, we may store:

  • Your selected neighbourhood and safety rating.
  • Any optional reasons you select for your rating.
  • A pseudonymous voter identifier to help prevent duplicate votes.

This information helps us calculate and display aggregated neighbourhood safety ratings.

02

Advertising & Google AdSense

SAFE.LONDON may display advertisements provided by Google AdSense.

Google and its advertising partners may use cookies and similar technologies to display advertisements, measure their performance and, where permitted, personalise advertising.

Your privacy rights
