Overview

Slickful Group LLC ("we," "our," or "us") operates heatmapp (the "Service"). This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, disclose, and safeguard your information when you use our heatmap analytics service.

We build the customer tracking snippet around data minimization: no cookies, no browser storage, no session replay, no form values, and no persistent cross-device visitor profile. Customers remain responsible for their own legal basis, privacy notice, and consent configuration where applicable.

Our DPA terms, subprocessor list, data map, retention schedule, and customer privacy notice template are available in the heatmapp trust center.

Collection

Data we collect

Personal information

  • Account Information: Email address, name (if provided)
  • Authentication Data: Google OAuth profile information (name, email, profile picture)
  • Contact Information: Email address for support and service communications

Website analytics data

  • Website Information: Domain names, page paths, and aggregate interaction metrics derived from masked events.
  • User Interactions: Pointer coordinates for heatmaps, clicks, scroll depth, and timing, without visitor text content or typed input values.
  • Device Information: Viewport size, device type category, and browser family.

End-visitor analytics (heatmap tracking script)

When your visitors load a website that embeds our tracking script, we process interaction data so you can view heatmaps and related metrics. By design we limit what leaves the visitor's browser:

  • No cookies or local storage for the snippet: The tracker does not set cookies and does not use browser storage; it keeps a short-lived, in-memory session identifier only for the current tab (typically up to 30 minutes of inactivity).
  • No persistent visitor profile: We do not assign a stable cross-device or cookie-based visitor ID for the analytics pipeline.
  • Structural element cues only: We collect structural metadata such as tag name, input type, form order, and field order. We do not collect DOM IDs, element names, classes, CSS selectors, readable labels, placeholders, page copy, form field values, or keystrokes from visitors.
  • Reduced device detail: We use device category, viewport size, and browser family instead of storing full user agent strings in analytics storage.
  • No raw mouse trails: We do not store movement paths or session replay data.
  • Reduced referrer detail: Referrers exclude query strings and fragments to avoid accidentally collecting tokens or identifiers from URLs.

Technical and infrastructure data

  • Infrastructure and security: Our hosting providers may process IP addresses and HTTP metadata for delivering pages, rate limiting, abuse prevention, and auditing. Heatmap event storage used for your dashboard is designed not to persist full visitor IP addresses in analytics datasets.
  • Dashboard sessions (heatm.app): When you log into the Service, we use cookies or similar mechanisms through our authentication providers to keep your session secure.
  • Usage diagnostics: Aggregated feature usage, error logs, and performance metrics tied to operating our platform.
