Privacy Policy

How TIMECRAFT handles browser storage, optional location, weather requests and third-party services.

Last Updated: November 9, 2026

1. Introduction

Welcome to TIMECRAFT. We respect your privacy and aim to be transparent about how information is handled when you use our website.

This Privacy Policy explains what information may be processed when you visit or use TIMECRAFT and how certain website features work.

2. Information We Collect

TIMECRAFT does not require you to create an account or provide personal information to use its tools.

However, some information may be processed in the following ways.

Information stored in your browser

Some features store settings and preferences locally in your browser, using browser storage such as localStorage. This may include:

This information is stored on your device rather than in a TIMECRAFT user account, and TIMECRAFT does not receive it. Clearing your browser storage removes these settings.

Weather, place search and location

The Weather & Sun Tracker lets you search for a city, town or postal code. The text you type is sent to Open-Meteo's geocoding service to find matching places, and you choose the correct one from the list. When you select a place, its coordinates are sent to the Open-Meteo Forecast API to get weather and sunrise and sunset data. Like any web request, these services can see your IP address and browser information.

Using your device location is optional. TIMECRAFT never requests it automatically; your browser asks for permission only after you click a "Use my location" button. If you allow it, your coordinates are sent to Open-Meteo to get the forecast. If you decline, you can search for a city instead, or skip weather entirely.

The place you selected and your unit choices may be saved in your browser's local storage so they are there next time. The small weather card on the home and live clock pages saves rounded coordinates if you use its location button, and has a button to remove them. You can also clear everything by clearing your browser storage.

Information processed by hosting providers

TIMECRAFT may be hosted using Cloudflare Pages or a similar hosting provider. The hosting provider may process technical information, such as IP addresses, browser information and server request data, as necessary to deliver and protect the website. Please refer to the hosting provider's privacy policy for more information.

3. Third-Party Services

Some TIMECRAFT features rely on external services.

Weather service

Weather and sunrise and sunset information, and the place search that finds locations by name, are provided by Open-Meteo (its place data is based on GeoNames). The place name you search for and the coordinates you select or share are sent to Open-Meteo. It has its own terms and privacy practices. See open-meteo.com.

YouTube and Spotify embeds

If you paste a YouTube or Spotify link into the Study Music tool, the relevant service loads its player in the page and may receive information, and may use its own cookies, when its content loads. These services operate under their own privacy policies and terms. Nothing is loaded from them unless you ask for it.

4. Cookies and Local Storage

TIMECRAFT uses browser local storage to remember preferences and settings. The website does not currently use advertising cookies or Google Analytics. Third-party services loaded through optional features may use their own cookies or similar technologies. You can manage or clear browser storage and cookies through your browser settings.

5. Analytics and Advertising

At the time of this policy's publication, Google Analytics and Google AdSense are not active on TIMECRAFT. If analytics, advertising or other tracking services are introduced in the future, this policy will be updated first to explain the relevant practices.

6. Data Sharing

TIMECRAFT does not sell users' personal information. Information may be processed by third-party providers when necessary to operate specific features, deliver the website, or protect it against misuse. We do not operate a user account database or payment system at this time.

7. Your Choices

You can decline location permission and search for a city instead, avoid pasting YouTube or Spotify links, and clear your browser storage at any time. Most tools work without any of these.

8. Children's Privacy

TIMECRAFT is a general-purpose utility website. It is not designed to knowingly collect personal information from children. Parents and guardians should supervise children's use of online services.

9. Data Security

We take reasonable steps to maintain the security and reliability of the website. However, no website or internet transmission can be guaranteed to be completely secure.

10. External Websites

TIMECRAFT may link to external websites and services. We are not responsible for their content, security or privacy practices. Please review their individual policies before using them.

11. Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy as TIMECRAFT's features and services change. The latest version will be published on this page with an updated date.

12. Contact

TIMECRAFT does not currently publish a dedicated contact email. A contact channel will be added when one is established.
