Techswarm AI uses Google Analytics 4 through Google Tag Manager to count visits and spot technical problems. There are no advertising tags: ad_storage, ad_user_data, and ad_personalization stay denied.
Before you consent, Google does not set analytics cookies but receives limited cookieless signals: page and referrer, event time, consent state, and technical data about the device, browser, and connection. If you select “Allow,” Google may set _ga and related cookies. analytics_consent stores your choice for 180 days; user and event data are retained for 14 months.
Use “Analytics settings” in the footer to change your choice. Google processes the data under its privacy policy.

Sending answers to the shared statistics is off by default and optional. If you enable it, Techswarm stores in a separate database only your 15 answers, test edition (ru or en), questionnaire version, and UTC calendar date. No IP address, cookies, user agent, referrer, Google Analytics/session ID, email, or other user identifier is attached to the answers.
Raw answers and exact aggregates are retained indefinitely until a separate policy decision changes retention. Techswarm cannot delete one submission on request because it stores no identifier that could link the row to a person. A retake counts as a new submission; public averages appear only after 30 submissions and do not represent unique people.
Cloudflare processes network data and request metadata to deliver and protect the service. Techswarm does not attach that metadata to the answers stored in the metrics database.
