Information ADMADAN handles

ADMADAN processes account information you provide, saved preferences and favorites, correction reports, and coarse or user-selected location information used to show nearby businesses. Precise browser location is used only when you grant permission and is not retained in browser storage or your account profile.

Daily visitor count

When the daily counter is enabled, ADMADAN assigns a random browser token that changes each Detroit-local calendar day. The server stores only a one-way hash, uses it to count a browser once per day, and deletes those private hashes after 45 days. The public home page receives only the aggregate count, not individual visitor records.

Correction reports

When correction intake is available, reports can be submitted without an account. ADMADAN stores the report, optional reply email and public evidence link, decisions, and a public-safe audit history. Do not include sensitive personal information in public-facing correction reports.

External directory providers and maps

Google-derived directory display and live-detail requests are currently disabled. The independently gated map can use OpenStreetMap tiles and sends requested tile coordinates to that provider only when the map is enabled. The canonical directory remains usable without a map or precise location.

Service providers and security

ADMADAN uses service providers such as Supabase and Netlify to host the directory, authenticate users, and deliver the website. Access controls, server-only credentials, and row-level security are used to limit access to private data.

Your choices

You can decline browser location access, choose a location manually, and remove saved favorites or account information through the available account controls. When correction intake is open, anyone can report a factual, duplicate, closure, source-conflict, or privacy issue without claiming a listing.
