Three categories. Your call.

We use cookies and local storage to make PhotoScout work and to improve it. Optional analytics is off by default — toggle it on below if you want to share usage data. No third-party advertising, no data sold to anyone.

ABOUT OUR COOKIES

Opt-in analytics. No ads.

PhotoScout uses no third-party advertising cookies. We don’t sell your data and we don’t share it with advertisers.

When you opt in via the toggle above, page views are processed by a self-hosted Umami instance in eu-central-1 (Frankfurt) under GDPR. Cross-site SEO referral metrics are processed by Ahrefs Site Explorer (analytics.ahrefs.com). Both are off by default; turning the analytics toggle off removes the trackers in this and other tabs.

For the full cookie list and retention periods, see the privacy policy. Questions? privacy@aiscout.photo.
