I Love Thrift Stores uses analytics and the information needed to operate and improve the site.
I Love Thrift Stores uses Google Analytics 4 (GA4) and SEOCheckerFree analytics to understand aggregate site usage and technical performance. These services may use cookies or similar technologies according to their own policies. The optional “Near Me” button asks for browser location permission and sends the supplied coordinates to this site only to match you with nearby covered stores or cities. Plan My Thrift Trip can save trip links in your browser using local storage; those saved trips are not sent to an I Love Thrift Stores account because no account is required. My Thrift Passport also uses browser local storage to remember which stores you mark as visited and when you marked them. Passport history stays on that browser unless you clear it or clear the browser's site data. An optional trip starting point is left out of saved and shared trip links and is passed to Google Maps only when you choose to open a route. Some city and trip pages with verified store coordinates load OpenStreetMap map tiles, which may send basic connection information such as your IP address to the map-tile provider. Forms send the information you voluntarily submit to our site inbox and also save a local review copy. Obvious spam may be silently filtered.
