Personal data we DON’T collect
To analyze our website traffic and deliver better content to you, we use the cookie-less web analytics service, Matomo, which anonymizes all users (including their IP address) and then aggregates that information.
Your activity browsing this website is NOT tracked on an individual level, nor is it connected to or in any way affiliated with information you might supply to us (such as contacting our team via the website contact form).
If you would like to opt out of Matomo stats altogether, you can do so here:

You may choose to prevent this website from aggregating and analyzing the actions you take here. Doing so will protect your privacy, but will also prevent the owner from learning from your actions and creating a better experience for you and other users.
Who has access to your information
We will never sell, lease, or otherwise share your personal information with unaffiliated, third-party individuals and organizations. WattTime will only use your personal information to deliver solutions, services, and communications. In addition to Matomo for anonymized and aggregate website analytics, we also use the following third-party services:
- Mailchimp: We use Mailchimp for most of our marketing and other email communications. You can learn more about Mailchimp’s data privacy and security practices here.
- Donorbox: We use Donorbox to handle donations submitted on the Support Our Work page. You can learn more about Donorbox’s data privacy and security practices here.
- Trakstar Hire: We use Trakstar to handle the job openings posted on the Careers page. You can learn more about Trakstar’s data privacy and security practices here.
