Telemetry

Tinyauth includes a heartbeat feature that send anonymous version information to get some insights on the usage of Tinyauth. The collected information includes:

• Tinyauth version
• Instance UUID (generated with UUID v4 from the app URL)
• Time of the request

Note

The UUID generated from the app URL is an irreversible hash and cannot be used to identify the instance.

The data is sent to https://api.tinyauth.app/v1/instances/hearbeat every 12 hours. No personal, sensitive or identifiable information is collected. The heartbeat can be disabled with:

Environment	CLI Flag	Default
TINYAUTH_ANALYTICS_ENABLED	--analytics.enabled	false

Note

Your IP address may be stored in an in-memory cache for a short period to prevent abuse of the API server.
