Privacy Policy

Last updated: November 4, 2026

All Things Spatial LLC (“All Things Spatial”, “ATS”, “we”) runs allthingsspatial.io and the apps linked from it. This policy explains what information we collect, why, and the choices you have. Questions: support@allthingsspatial.io.

What we collect and why

When you contact us. The contact form on our home page sends your name, email address and message through Amazon Web Services (API Gateway) to our inbox. Some pages open your own email program instead. We use what you send only to reply to you. We do not add you to a mailing list, and we do not sell or share your details.

When you book a call. Our booking page uses Cal.com. The details you enter (name, email, time and any notes) are collected by Cal.com and passed to us so we can hold the meeting. Meetings are held on Microsoft 365 / Microsoft Teams, so your name, email and the meeting time are also passed to Microsoft to create the calendar event and the Teams meeting link. Cal.com’s and Microsoft’s own privacy policies apply to their services.

When you browse. We use Google Analytics, loaded through Google Tag Manager, to understand how the site is used: pages viewed, how you arrived, approximate location (city or region), device and browser type. This uses cookies. We use it only to improve the site and our content. We do not use it for advertising, and we do not combine it with other information to identify you.

Cookies and your choices

Google Analytics sets cookies in your browser. You can block or delete cookies in your browser settings, or install Google’s opt-out add-on: https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout. The site works without them.

Our Google Tag Manager setup also reads a first-party cookie named ats_internal. It is used only to mark visits from our own staff’s browsers as internal so they are left out of our analytics reports. The website does not set this cookie for visitors; it is present only on browsers where we have set it ourselves.

Videos

Our pages embed videos from YouTube in its privacy-enhanced mode, which does not set YouTube cookies until you play a video. Video thumbnail images load from YouTube’s image server (i.ytimg.com) together with the page, before you press play, so YouTube receives your IP address and browser details when you open a page that shows a video. Once you play one, YouTube’s and Google’s privacy policies apply: https://policies.google.com/privacy.

Fonts and page libraries

Our fonts (Inter, Montserrat, Space Grotesk and JetBrains Mono) and the Bootstrap page library are served from our own web host, so loading them sends nothing to Google Fonts or a third-party CDN. Some pages also load content from other services: maps and map libraries from Esri (js.arcgis.com and ArcGIS Online); video thumbnails from i.ytimg.com and embedded players from youtube-nocookie.com, which load Google and YouTube resources with the page; live coverage figures on the ATS GIS Workbench page, read from the Workbench database host (Supabase) without cookies; the Cal.com booking calendar on our Book page; and Google Tag Manager and Google Analytics as described above. Like any web request, these services receive your IP address and browser details when the page loads.

Our apps

Our public apps show open government data and do not require an account. Searches you type into them are sent to the public data services needed to answer them, such as government map servers and Esri location services, and are not stored by us. Our apps use the same Google Analytics described above, except where an app’s own policy says otherwise.

Two apps have their own policies because they offer sign-in:

Our YouTube tool and Google user data

We operate an internal tool, “ATS YouTube Uploader”, which uses YouTube API Services to upload and schedule videos on our own YouTube channel and to read that channel’s analytics. It is used only by All Things Spatial on its own account. It does not access the accounts or data of visitors or viewers.

By using features that rely on YouTube API Services you are also bound by the YouTube Terms of Service (https://www.youtube.com/t/terms), and Google’s Privacy Policy (https://policies.google.com/privacy) applies.

ATS YouTube Uploader’s use and transfer to any other app of information received from Google APIs will adhere to the Google API Services User Data Policy (https://developers.google.com/terms/api-services-user-data-policy), including the Limited Use requirements. Access granted to the tool can be revoked at any time from Google’s security settings: https://myaccount.google.com/permissions.

Sharing

We do not sell, rent or trade personal information. We share it only with the services that run this site on our behalf (Google, Cal.com, Microsoft for meetings, Stripe, Amazon Web Services for the contact form and app hosting, and our web host), or when the law requires it. Stripe processes payments for our sessions, training and subscriptions: your card details go to Stripe, and we do not store card numbers.

How long we keep it

Messages and booking details are kept as ordinary business correspondence for as long as we need them to respond and to keep business records. Analytics data is kept for the retention period set in our Google Analytics account. To ask us to delete what you have sent us, email support@allthingsspatial.io.

Children

This site is not directed to children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect information from them.

Changes

If we change this policy, we will update it here and change the “Last updated” date above.
