Cookie-free, aggregate traffic measurement
When a public Hourline page is opened, the server increments daily aggregate counters for the page, referral hostname, selected language and broad device class. Public signup links also increment aggregate counters for the link location so we can estimate how often a signup click becomes a workspace.
Hourline does not store IP addresses, complete browser identifiers, URL query strings, fingerprints or persistent visitor identifiers for this measurement. Signup clicks are not linked to registrations or individual accounts. Hourline cannot follow a visitor across websites or reliably recognize the same person on a later visit.
Private product-activation statistics are calculated from existing workspace records. The administrator dashboard does not expose account email addresses, invoice values, invoice contents or contact-message contents.
Your choices
You can remove Hourline cookies and browser storage through your browser settings. Clearing the session cookie signs you out. Clearing browser storage resets device preferences and any running timer saved in this browser.
If Hourline adds analytics cookies, advertising or similar optional tracking in the future, those technologies will remain off until you make a clear choice.
