Terms & privacy

420 Advocate · plain language
No account is needed to use this site, ever. You can browse every strain, view every photograph and use the like buttons without signing in or giving us anything.

What we store, and where

Your likes and passes are saved in your own browser (localStorage, key strain_votes_v1). They never leave your device unless you explicitly choose to share them. Clearing your browser data, or the "Clear" button on your likes page, removes them permanently. We keep no copy.

If you choose to share your likes

Sharing needs a stable reference so the link keeps working after you close the tab. When you share, we create a pseudonymous id for your list — a random identifier, not your name, email or address, and not tied to your browsing elsewhere. It stores only which strains are on that list. Anyone with the link can read that list, so share it the way you would a public list.

Sign-in, when a page offers it, is handled by our own identity service at auth.sqs.chat. That service never sees your likes, and this site never sees your password.

Photographs and credits

Every photograph carries its source and credit on the strain it appears on. Freely licensed images (Creative Commons, public domain) are used under those licences and attributed to their creator and licence. Where a photograph is credited to a publisher, the credit links to that publisher's page for the strain. If you hold rights in an image and want it changed or removed, contact us and we will act promptly.

Age

This site is for adults. It is intended for people 21 and over, in line with United States law, and the age gate reflects that.

What this site is not

We do not sell cannabis, and nothing here is medical advice. Strain descriptions, effects and any potency figures are reported from the cited sources, with the source named wherever a figure appears. Treat them as information, not instruction.
