Local storage is not private sharing: a copied board URL exposes its configuration to recipients and to the infrastructure serving that URL.

Scope of this draft

This page describes the current local Clock.live implementation. The operator identity and contact details are confirmed. Production hosting/log retention disclosures and applicable public privacy choices still require review. It is not a statement that those deployment details are already in place.

Public operator: Bridgetoclouds.com LLC. Operator country: United States. The contact page shows whether a public channel is configured. No account registration, contact submission form, payment processing or personal-board database is implemented.

Settings saved by the tools

These values use browser storage rather than account storage. They can be read by scripts running for the same site origin, and by someone with access to your browser profile. Browser settings, private browsing or quota limits can deny writes. Clearing site data removes them.

Shared links contain readable configuration

A shared board can include its cities, base, working hours, display preferences, a fixed preview instant and relevant repeated-time choices. Encoding makes the URL transportable; it does not encrypt it. Recipients can inspect, retain or forward that configuration.

The board query is sent in the page request, so the serving infrastructure can see it and it can appear in origin-server or proxy request logs. Browser history, copied text and any service you use to send the link may retain it as well. No server database is needed for those copies to exist.

Opening a shared board applies a page-session view. The recipient’s saved board, hours and display are changed only by the explicit Save shared board action. Do not use a public configuration URL to store confidential schedules.

Website statistics and advertising

Clock.live uses Vercel Web Analytics on its production domain to understand visits and page views. Vercel describes the service as using aggregated statistics without third-party cookies, with visitor-session identification discarded after 24 hours. This is not a retention promise for every hosting log or aggregate report.

The integration removes query strings and fragments from measured page URLs and limits browser referrers to their origin. It does not send city-search text, shared-board configuration, saved settings or custom tool events as analytics properties. A fresh page load records a page view; clock ticks and changes within a tool do not create extra page views.

Analytics does not start on preview domains, localhost, fullscreen or error pages, or when the browser reports Do Not Track or Global Privacy Control. Browser blocking may also prevent measurement. No real advertising provider is enabled; an empty layout reservation is not an ad request. Privacy and contact pages contain no ad placement.

The remaining hosting disclosures and applicable privacy review are still being completed. Adding statistics does not certify those separate requirements.

Your controls and remaining launch work

Use the tools’ reset/remove actions to change stored tool state, or your browser’s site-data controls to remove the origin’s stored settings. Resetting a countdown retains an idle record to prevent stale tabs from reviving it. Clearing browser storage does not recall a shared link or erase copies retained by recipients or infrastructure.

Send privacy questions to the public contact address on the contact page. Deployment privacy disclosures still require review; passing local tests does not complete that review.
