StayCounter

Independent site. We are not the EU or any government, we don’t process ETIAS or visa applications and we never charge for them. ETIAS is not in operation yet: nobody can apply today. Ignore any site asking you to pay for it now.

Privacy policy

Short version: your trips never leave your browser, and we don’t use tracking cookies.

Your trips

  • The trips you enter are saved in your browser’s local storage on your device. They are not sent to us or to anyone else.
  • You can download them (JSON file), import them, or delete them with “Delete all trips”. Clearing your browser data also deletes them.
  • Share links contain your trips in the part of the address after #. Browsers don’t send that part to the server. Anyone who receives the link can see the trips.
  • Calendar files (.ics) are created on your device and downloaded directly.

Visit statistics

We use Cloudflare Web Analytics to count visits. It doesn’t use cookies or local storage and doesn’t build profiles. It gives aggregate figures such as page views, country and browser type.

Contact form

If you write to us through the contact page, your name (optional), e-mail address and message are sent through Web3Forms, a form-delivery service that e-mails them to us. We use them only to reply and delete them when they are no longer needed. Please don’t include passport numbers or other sensitive data. See the Web3Forms privacy policy linked below.

Hosting

The site is hosted on Cloudflare Pages. Like any web host, Cloudflare processes technical data such as IP addresses to deliver pages and protect the service. See the Cloudflare privacy policy linked below.

Advertising

There are no ads at the moment. If we add them (Google AdSense), we will update this policy first. Where the law requires it, we will show a consent banner before any advertising cookies are set.

Contact and your rights

Under the GDPR you can ask what personal data we hold about you and have it corrected or deleted. In practice we don’t hold your trip data. Write to us through the contact page.
