Garden Hours is an independent, unofficial application that helps users view publicly available garden hours, schedule changes, free days and events.

Garden Hours is not affiliated with, authorized by or endorsed by Denver Botanic Gardens.

Information We Collect

Garden Hours does not collect, store, sell or share personal information.

The app does not require an account and does not collect:

Garden Hours does not contain advertising or third-party tracking technologies.

Information Stored on Your Device

The app stores your selected appearance preference—System, Light or Dark—locally on your device.

Garden Hours may also cache publicly available garden schedules and event information on your device to improve reliability and provide information when a live update is temporarily unavailable.

This locally stored information is not transmitted to or accessible by the developer.

Network Requests and Live Information

Garden Hours downloads publicly available hours, closure, free-day and event information from the Denver Botanic Gardens website at botanicgardens.org.

As with any standard internet request, the website or its service providers may receive technical information such as your IP address, request time, browser or app identifier and basic device/network information. Garden Hours does not control how third-party websites process this information.

Please review the Denver Botanic Gardens privacy policy for information about its privacy practices.

External Links

Garden Hours contains links to official event and visitor-information pages operated by Denver Botanic Gardens and potentially other third-party registration providers.

When you open an external link, the destination website’s privacy policy and terms apply. Garden Hours is not responsible for the content or privacy practices of external websites.

Children’s Privacy

Garden Hours does not knowingly collect personal information from children or any other users. The app does not require account creation or user-submitted information.

Data Sharing and Sale

Garden Hours does not sell, rent or share personal information because the app does not collect personal information.

Data Retention and Deletion

Garden Hours does not maintain a server or database containing user information.

You may remove locally stored preferences and cached public information by deleting the app from your device.

Security

Because Garden Hours does not collect or maintain personal information, no personal user database is operated by the developer. Network requests use standard HTTPS connections where supported by the destination website.

Changes to This Policy

This Privacy Policy may be updated if the app’s features or data practices change. Any updated policy will be published on this page with a revised effective date.
