Cookie Policy

1. What this policy covers

This policy describes the cookies, pixels, local storage entries, and similar tracking technologies that TinyGuard uses on tinyguard.co (our marketing site). The TinyGuard application at app.tinyguard.co uses only functional, authentication-related local storage entries — no advertising or analytics cookies. The marketing site uses a small set of analytics and conversion-attribution tools, disclosed below.

This policy does not cover the cookies your facility's own users (families, residents, staff) encounter when they use the TinyGuard application; those are technical-essential only, described in the Privacy Policy §9.

2. Categories of cookies and trackers we use on tinyguard.co

Strictly necessary (always on)

These run without a choice prompt because the site doesn't function without them. They are first-party only and not used for analytics or advertising.

Analytics (Google Analytics 4 via Google Tag Manager)

We use Google Analytics 4 (GA4) to understand which marketing pages are working — page views, traffic sources, anonymous device class. We have configured GA4 with IP-anonymization and the GA4 default "Google Signals" off. We do not knowingly use GA4 audience-export or remarketing features.

Embedded third-party (loaded only when you interact with that feature)

These do not run on page load. They load only when you click into the relevant feature.

3. Your choices

Do Not Sell or Share My Personal Information

To opt out, send a request to privacy@tinyguard.co with the subject line "Do Not Sell or Share — CPRA opt-out" and identify the device / browser you want excluded (best effort: include the IP address and a recent visit date so we can correlate). We honor opt-outs within 15 business days; in practice we set the GA4 "user opt-out" flag for your session on subsequent visits and route your traffic through a no-cookie analytics tag.

You can also opt out at the browser level via the Global Privacy Control (GPC) signal, which we recognize per CPRA §1798.135. Browsers and extensions that emit GPC: Brave, DuckDuckGo Privacy Browser, Privacy Badger, OptMeowt, DuckDuckGo Privacy Extension. We treat GPC as an opt-out request on every page load.

Browser-level controls

You can clear or block cookies at the browser level (Settings → Privacy → Cookies / Site Data on most browsers). Blocking the Strictly Necessary category may break basic site functions like the "I'm not a robot" challenge.

Google Analytics opt-out

Google offers a browser add-on that disables GA4 across every site (not just tinyguard.co): tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout.

4. What we don't do

• We don't sell your personal information for money to data brokers.
• We don't run third-party advertising trackers (no Meta pixel, no LinkedIn Insight Tag, no TikTok pixel, no programmatic ad networks).
• We don't profile children. Our cookie-based analytics on tinyguard.co are aimed at facility-operator marketing; the in-app surfaces for children and families do not run analytics cookies.
• We don't share your contact information with third parties for their own marketing.

5. Changes

We update this policy when our tooling changes. Material additions (e.g., a new analytics provider, a new advertising tracker) will be announced via a website banner for 30 days and noted in the Privacy Policy's subprocessor table per §8.
