Manage your location settings in Chrome

To get more useful information from sites, you can allow the sites to use your location.

Let a site know your location

By default, Chrome asks you when a site wants to use your location. To let the site know where you are, select Allow. Before you allow a site to use your location, check the site's privacy policy.

Change your default location settings

1. On your Android device, open Chrome .
2. On the right of the address bar, tap More Settings.
3. Under “Advanced,” tap Site settings Location.
4. Turn Location on or off.

Tip: To change the settings for a specific site, tap the listed site names.

How Chrome uses your location

If you allow sites in Chrome to use your location, Chrome sends information to Google Location Services to get an estimate of where you are. Chrome can then share that info with the site that wants your location.
