Privacy
We count clicks, not people.
What we keep for each short link
- The address it goes to, when it was made, and any expiry or click limit you set.
- A scrambled copy of its private key. The key itself is shown once and never stored.
- If you add them: a scrambled copy of the link's password, and the title, description and image address of its chat preview card.
- Click totals per day (and per hour for the last three days), split by country, device type (phone, tablet or computer) and the website the click came from.
What we do not keep
- No IP addresses in click stats, and no record of which person clicked what.
- No accounts, names or email addresses.
- No cookies, no advertising and no tracking scripts.
Stopping spam
To limit how fast one source can make links, we keep a one-way fingerprint of the address a request came from. It cannot be turned back into an IP address, it changes every day, and it is deleted within two days.
Server logs
Like every website, our web server and our network provider (Cloudflare) keep short-lived technical logs that include IP addresses. They are used only for security and fixing faults. Click stats are never built from them.
Who can see a link's stats
Only someone holding that link's private key, and the people who run tny.gg when they review a report.
What stays on your device
Your browser remembers two things for you: whether you chose light or dark, and the list of links you made recently, with their private links. Both are stored on your own device and are never sent to us. "Forget all" on the home page clears the list.
