Privacy policy

Updated October 21, 2026. This policy describes the current ad-free version of Timecard.

Time cards and local storage

Your entries are processed locally. Saving is off by default. If you turn it on, we store your current card and calculation settings in your browser’s local storage under timecard-v1 until you turn it off or clear site data. It is not encrypted and may be accessible to other people using this browser profile. CSV exports are saved to your own device and remain there until you delete them.

Anonymous usage counts

We count tool-page openings and successful actions to understand whether this free tool is useful. Only the UTC date, a fixed event name, a broad source category (search, external link, or direct/unknown), and a total count are stored in the site's database. Counts are aggregated; we do not assign visitor identifiers, use analytics cookies, or store IP addresses, full referring URLs, microphone audio, time entries, pay rates, or exported files in this database.

Each action type is counted at most once per open page. Reloads can count again. Daily aggregate counts are retained to compare usage over time. The site owner can see totals; visitors cannot access the statistics screen.

Counting is skipped when your browser sends Do Not Track or Global Privacy Control. You can also turn it off here. This stores only an opt-out preference in this browser; it is not an identifier. Reload any other open tabs for a changed preference to take effect.

Hosting and connection data

The hosting provider receives ordinary page and count requests and may process IP addresses, user agents, timestamps, and security logs under its own policies. The public tool does not require login. The site and aggregate database are hosted by Cloudflare. The owner's statistics screen requires a private access key and uses a secure session cookie solely for owner authentication. Tool inputs are not included in counting requests.

Advertising and third-party services

This version has no advertising scripts, third-party analytics services, or external fonts. No advertising data is collected by the application.
