Frequently asked questions

What does Campingpirates cost?
Nothing. All spots are visible to everyone — now and later. An optional Pirates+ subscription for comfort features like offline maps is planned; access to spots stays free.
Where do the spots come from?
Exclusively from the community and open data (OpenStreetMap). We do not take data from other platforms.
How do I add a spot?
Create an account, confirm your email, hit Add spot: drop the pin, six short steps, done. Under two minutes including a photo.
What does the freshness badge mean?
It shows when a spot was last confirmed: green under 3 months, neutral up to 12, faded after. Every rating, comment and confirmation refreshes it.
What happens to my photos' GPS data?
It never leaves your device: GPS and camera metadata are removed in the browser before upload.
Can I delete my account?
Yes, in settings — with a data export beforehand. Your identity is anonymised; spots and comments remain available to the community anonymously.
