Who We Are
Post Timing (posttiming.co) is operated by an individual creator based in the United Kingdom. We provide a free tool to help content creators find the best times to post on TikTok, Instagram Reels, and YouTube Shorts.
What Data We Collect
- Email address: only if you enter it in the PDF download form or the algorithm alerts form.
- Usage statistics, only if you accept analytics cookies: Google Analytics 4 records the pages you view and the tool options you choose, such as platform, niche and time zones. It uses cookies and a random identifier, not your name.
- Session recordings, only if you accept analytics cookies: Microsoft Clarity records clicks, scrolling and page interactions so we can find problems with the tool. We don't record what you type into the email forms.
- Page counts without cookies: Vercel Web Analytics counts page views without cookies or identifiers that follow you across sites.
- No accounts: we don't ask for a password or payment details.
How We Use Your Data
- Email addresses: Used to deliver the PDF guide you requested and to send occasional updates about posting time changes, new features, or additional platform coverage. You can unsubscribe at any time using the link in any email.
- Usage statistics and recordings: to see which features people use, find problems and improve the recommendations.
