What agents should and should not do

Cite sourced place pages

Canonical POI facts come from non-Google evidence links shown on Gyde place pages. Do not cite booking links as evidence.

Ask before using location

Nearby and Roam experiences become more useful with precise location, but agents should get explicit user permission first.

Treat booking as action

Tickets, tours, reservations, and affiliate links are commercial CTAs with sponsored rel attributes and FTC disclosure.
