What QuotaBird counts, what stays in your browser, and how to clear it.
Last updated October 2026. Questions: mark@quotabird.com.
The short version
QuotaBird has no accounts, no ads and no sign-up. The numbers and answers you type into the tools are worked out in your browser and never sent to QuotaBird or anyone else. QuotaBird counts page views and which tools get used, so it knows what's worth improving.
What QuotaBird counts
QuotaBird uses Google Analytics 4 to count visits. Google Analytics records the pages you visit and the usual technical details that come with any visit, such as your browser, device type, approximate location and the site that sent you. It sets cookies in your browser to tell visits apart.
QuotaBird also counts a few named events, with no details attached: that someone used a tool, finished a check, shared a result, copied a note to Mark, or downloaded a Field Kit. Those events never include the numbers or answers you entered.
To stop Google Analytics, block its cookies in your browser settings or use Google's opt-out add-on. Google's handling of that data is covered by Google's privacy policy.
What stays in your browser
- Your numbers and answers. Every calculation happens on your device. Nothing you type goes to a server or a CRM.
- Base, variable and quota. If you type them into one tool, your browser remembers them so the next tool can fill them in. They're stored only in your browser's local storage, on your device. Use "Clear them" on any tool that shows them, or clear your browser's site data for quotabird.com.
Shared links
When you share a result, the numbers or answers ride along in the link itself, after the # sign. That part of a link isn't sent to QuotaBird's server or to Google Analytics, but anyone you send the link to can see what's in it. Share accordingly.
Other services you might click through to
- Booking a call opens Calendly, which collects what you enter there under its own privacy policy.
- Sending a note on LinkedIn happens on LinkedIn, under its own privacy policy. The DM button only copies a note to your clipboard.
- Email to mark@quotabird.com is read by Mark and not shared.
What QuotaBird doesn't do
No accounts, no advertising, no selling or renting data, and no AI processing of anything you type. The Field Kits are plain PDF files.
