Privacy policy
Last updated September 2, 2026.
Browser time zone
The site reads your browser’s time-zone identifier to calculate local clock differences. This happens in your browser and the identifier is not required to be sent to GlobalTimeGuide’s server for the core clock tools.
External data requests
Some tools make browser-side requests to external data providers. Public- and school-holiday features can request data from OpenHolidays where coverage is supported, while weather features can request data from Open-Meteo. Those providers receive normal network information such as your IP address when your browser connects to them.
Analytics and advertising
Google Analytics 4 is configured for traffic measurement, but analytics storage is denied by default and the analytics script is loaded only after the visitor chooses to allow analytics in the site consent banner. Google AdSense is not enabled in this package. If advertising is enabled later, the required consent and advertising settings must be configured for the jurisdictions where the site is used.
Local storage
The site may use browser local storage for short-lived API caches and optional consent choices. This improves speed and reduces repeated network requests.
