Privacy Policy
This directory was built to need very little from its readers. Its purpose is narrow: describe genuinely free experiences in Vancouver and point to the 6 English-language free walks on GuruWalk, each run by an independent local guide. Nothing about a reservation is handled here. When a reader decides to join Toonie at Canada Place, or Gaby outside Waterfront Station, or Kyle by the stone lions at the Vancouver Art Gallery, the booking and every detail attached to it belong to GuruWalk. The hotel block shown on the homepage works the same way, since any follow-up happens elsewhere. This page sets out the small technical traces a browser can leave and where personal information actually sits once a reader moves on.
What Reading Here Records
Reading this site requires nothing from you. No account exists, no newsletter box appears, and no page asks for a name, email or payment card. Reserving a spot is the one step that involves giving information, and it happens entirely on GuruWalk, whether the walk starts in Gastown, at Robson Square or beside Canada Place. Whatever a walker types there is covered by GuruWalk's own privacy terms, not by this page, and none of it returns here. That leaves only the ordinary technical traces a browser generates whenever any page loads.
Cookies And Visitor Counts
Opening a page may place an ordinary cookie that notes the visit and nothing more. It contains no personal information. Nothing here builds a reader profile, and no advertising system trails anyone from one article to the next. Where anonymous visit tallies exist, they show that a page was opened, never by whom.
The Basics
- No signup and no forms. Nothing on this site asks for a name, email or login, so browsing the free things to do in Vancouver stays anonymous from the first page to the last.
- All 6 free walks are pay what you want, and every reservation is made on GuruWalk. That platform's own privacy policy governs anything a walker enters there, and each walk keeps its separate GuruWalk page.
- Links to GuruWalk walks on this site are affiliate links. Following one costs a walker nothing extra, since every walk listed here is free, pay what you want, and any referral arrangement runs between this site and GuruWalk alone.
- Any browser lets a visitor block or delete cookies, and the site works the same with them gone. Guides, park pages and attraction write-ups remain fully readable either way. For anything these pages do not cover, an email address sits in the footer.
Your Choices
Personal information stays in the reader's hands from first visit to last. Blocking cookies, or clearing them after the fact, does not hide a single page: the six free walking tours, the Stanley Park and English Bay entries and every other guide stay open in full. Reserving a seat on a walk is a different matter entirely. That happens on GuruWalk, where the account, the details attached to it and the decision to keep or delete it all belong to the walker. Nothing from that account reaches this directory.
Spotted something wrong, or curious how a piece of personal data is handled? The footer carries an email address for both. Questions tied to a single walk go to the guide running it, whether that means confirming the meeting point at Canada Place, the languages spoken or the hours a route covers. Those replies come through GuruWalk's own page for that walk. Each of the 6 free walks on GuruWalk listed here is run by an independent local guide; this directory operates none of them and keeps no bookings.
