LINKTIMER GUIDE
Privacy-first analytics for expiring links
Useful measurement does not require turning every link into a visitor-identification product. LinkTimer focuses on aggregate operational signals.
What this option gives you
Pseudonymous uniqueness
Daily salted hashes estimate unique human activity.
Bot visibility
Automation is separated so it does not inflate human engagement.
Practical use cases
Internal measurement
Track whether a temporary route is being used.
Event QR
Compare scan activity with other traffic channels.
Client reporting
Export CSV or JSON and create a read-only report link that expires.
Regional planning
Use available country and language hints in aggregate.
How it works
Create an eligible managed link
Advanced analytics requires authenticated paid or gifted access.
Share through the intended channels
QR links include a channel marker.
Interpret cautiously
Treat geography and uniqueness as estimates, not identity facts.
Important limitation
Pseudonymous data can still have privacy implications. Organizations remain responsible for notice, consent, retention, and lawful processing where required.
Frequently asked questions
Are unique visitors exact?
No. They are privacy-oriented estimates.
Can a person appear more than once?
Yes, across devices, days, or changing network conditions.
Is city data always present?
No. It depends on available infrastructure headers.
Can I share a report without dashboard access?
Yes. Authorized analysts can create a read-only snapshot link with a server-enforced expiry.
Authoritative external resources
These links provide additional context from the destination provider or recognized security resources. External sites are responsible for their own content and policies.
