Telemetry from Meshtastic Mapper software

Starting with version 2.1.1, Meshtastic Mapper sends an anonymous ping once per day to help the developer understand how many installations are active. This is opt-out — you can disable it in Config → Coverage tab.

We do NOT collect: IP addresses (pseudonymised by hashing for rate limiting only; the telemetry service never stores them in full), node data, GPS coordinates, messages, usernames, or any other personally identifiable information.

Like every request to this website, telemetry requests are recorded, including the IP address, in our web server logs, which are deleted after 30 days.

We do not collect email addresses, names, or any personally identifiable information through this website.

3. Analytics

We do not use analytics scripts or cookies. Visit statistics are derived from our web server's access logs, which record the IP address, time, requested page, referrer and browser user agent of each request. These logs are processed on our own servers in the European Union, only to count page views, estimate the visitor's country and protect the site against attacks. They are never shared with third parties and are deleted after 30 days. Only aggregated, non-personal counts are kept longer (up to 90 days).

No cookie consent banner is needed because no cookies are used.
