Privacy Policy

1. Data Controller

Tech Sync Analytica LLC operates ScuPlan.
Contact: techsyncanalyticallc@gmail.com

2. Data We Collect

• Dive Plans — Stored in a server-side database when you use the dive planner. If you add buddies to a plan, the buddy names, certifications and skill levels you enter are stored with that plan so the share link can show them. Enter initials or short names if you prefer not to store full names.
• Dive Group Manager — Group manifests, roll calls, buddy teams, air readings and the medical-form / medical-alert / insurance checkboxes are stored only in your browser (localStorage). They are never sent to our servers. Share links put the group data in the part of the URL after #, which browsers do not send to servers; by default they contain initials only and no medical or insurance flags. Groups are deleted automatically after the retention period you choose (30 days by default), or immediately with “Delete all group data”. The dive center or instructor using this tool is the data controller for the people on their list.
• Checklists — Custom checklists are stored in the database. Default checklists can also be saved locally for offline use.
• Analytics — We use Google Analytics 4 (GA4) to understand usage patterns. GA4 is loaded only after you accept cookies via our consent banner. We implement Google Consent Mode v2.
• Affiliate Links — Blog posts contain Amazon affiliate links (tag: scuplan-20). Clicking these links is tracked as an affiliate_click event in GA4. Amazon may set their own cookies on their domain.

3. Google Consent Mode v2

ScuPlan implements full Google Consent Mode v2. By default, all consent categories are set to denied:

• ad_storage — denied by default
• ad_user_data — denied by default
• ad_personalization — denied by default
• analytics_storage — denied by default

When you accept cookies, these are updated to granted. When you decline, they remain denied and no tracking cookies are set.

4. Cookies

ScuPlan uses the following cookies/storage:

• cookie_consent (localStorage) — Stores your cookie consent preference
• Google Analytics — Only if you accept cookies. Used for anonymous usage analytics.
• Google AdSense — Only if you accept cookies. Used for displaying relevant advertisements.

5. Third-Party Services

• Google Analytics 4 (G-FZYPK08YL7) — Anonymous usage analytics
• Google AdSense — Advertising (consent-gated)
• Amazon Associates — Affiliate product links in blog posts
• Hugging Face Inference API — AI dive assistant (questions are sent to HF servers for processing)

6. Your Rights

You can:

• Decline cookies at any time using the consent banner (click "Privacy Choices" in the footer)
• Clear your browser storage to remove all locally saved data
• Request deletion of your dive plan data by contacting us
• Delete Dive Group Manager data yourself at any time from the Dive Groups page (it never leaves your device)
