BillysHideout.com (“we,” “us,” or “our”) is a simple, informational website created to help visitors learn about Billy’s Hideout, the Pepin region, and nearby adventures. This Privacy Policy explains how we handle information when you visit our site.
1. Information We Collect

We do not use:

These external sites operate independently from us and may collect their own information under their own privacy policies.

We encourage visitors to verify information directly with official or updated sources.
4. Embedded Maps or Widgets
If we use features such as Google Maps, trail maps, or booking widgets, those services may collect usage information under their own policies.
We do not control or access that data.
