Cookie Notice
Effective [EFFECTIVE DATE]
The app uses only what it needs to work. It sets one cookie to keep you signed in and stores a few settings in your browser. It has no advertising or analytics cookies.
Our public website, localpinmeter.com, uses Google Analytics to count visits and see which pages help. It never uses advertising features. A banner lets you accept or decline, and "Cookie choices" at the bottom of every page changes your answer. In the EEA, the UK and Switzerland, analytics stays off until you accept.
The cookie we set
| Name | What it does | How long |
|---|---|---|
Session cookie ([lp_session]) | Keeps you signed in. It holds a random token and can't be read by page scripts (HTTP-only). | 30 days, or until you sign out |
What we keep in your browser's storage
Not cookies. They are never sent to us, and you can clear them in your browser.
| Item | What it does | How long |
|---|---|---|
| Map style | Remembers the map style you picked | Until cleared |
| Sidebar | Remembers whether the sidebar is collapsed | Until cleared |
| Free-scan visit | The campaign tags and referring page from your visit, so the agency can see which ad brought you | Until the tab is closed |
| Free-scan events sent | Stops the same "lead" event from being counted twice | Until cleared (the last 50 events) |
Our website (localpinmeter.com)
Google Tag Manager loads Google Analytics, which sets these cookies only if analytics is on:
| Name | What it does | How long |
|---|---|---|
_ga | Tells one visitor from another, with a random ID | Up to 2 years |
_ga_<ID> | Keeps the current visit together | Up to 2 years |
The website also keeps your answer to the banner (lp-consent) in your browser's storage until you clear it. Google keeps Analytics data for 14 months.
Other services on our pages
These load only where they are needed. They follow their own privacy policies.
- Cloudflare Turnstile, on sign-up and public forms. It checks that you're a person, using signals from your browser.
- MapTiler, on maps. Your browser fetches map images from MapTiler, which sees your IP address and the map area.
- Stripe, on checkout and billing pages. Stripe sets its own cookies there to process payments and prevent fraud.
- Google, only while you connect a Google account for Business Profile posts. You sign in on Google's own pages.
Agencies' lead pages
An agency's free-scan page can load the agency's own Google Tag Manager to measure its ads. An agency can also embed the page on its own website. In both cases:
- The agency decides what those tags do and is responsible for asking visitors' consent where the law requires.
- Local Pinmeter loads no tags of its own on those pages.
