Privacy Policy
The short version: we collect almost nothing — and you never have to tell us your real name.
- No account, no email — you can use CoHours today without telling us who you are.
- Your browser gets a random ID. We can't tell who you are from it.
- No cookies. No ads. No third-party trackers. We never sell data.
What we collect
- A random ID. Your browser stores a random string of letters and numbers (in localStorage). It lets us count "the same person came back" without knowing who that person is.
- Usage events. Simple facts like "visited", "reserved a slot", "joined a session", "finished a session". On this landing page: that you viewed it, how far you scrolled, how long you stayed, and which button you clicked.
- Where you came from. A short code in the link you clicked (like
?ref=…) so we know which post or community brought you here. - Your country. A two-letter code (like "US"), estimated by our hosting provider at the network edge. We do not store your IP address.
- What you type. The display name and one-line goal you enter for a session, and — if you use them — your weekly aim and any study minutes you add by hand.
What we don't collect
- No real name, email, or address — there are no accounts yet. You pick a display name, and it doesn't have to be your real one.
- No IP addresses and no precise location.
- No cookies.
- No third-party analytics or trackers — no Google Analytics, no ad pixels.
- No camera or microphone. The product doesn't have them, and this site never asks.
Why we collect it
- To make CoHours better. The events tell us which parts work and where people give up, so we fix the right things.
- To keep rooms the right size. Knowing when people show up helps us schedule sessions people can actually sit in.
That's the whole list. We don't sell your data, we don't share it for advertising, and we don't use it to build profiles of you.
Where it lives
The data is stored with Cloudflare, our hosting provider, in a single database. Only the founder has access to it.
Deleting your data
Email us and we'll delete everything tied to your browser's random ID. Because we can't identify you (that's the point), we may ask you to do one quick step in your browser so we can find which ID is yours. One email is enough — no forms, no waiting period.
When this changes
If CoHours adds accounts or email sign-in later, we'll update this page before that ships, and the same spirit will hold: collect the minimum, say it plainly, delete on request.
