PRIVACY / ADVERTISING DISCLOSURE
This disclosure describes the public Processing Radar site as deployed on processingradar.com. It covers browser storage, approximate country detection, official-source requests, Cloudflare security services, analytics, and advertising.
Processing Radar does not ask for names, UCI numbers, application numbers, documents, or application status details. Do not enter sensitive immigration information into any future feedback or contact surface.
The app may use browser local storage to keep recently fetched aggregate source data available when a live request fails. This is device-local product state, not a server-side case record.
When the temporary-residence view opens without a country choice, Processing Radar uses Cloudflare’s two-letter request-country signal to select a matching IRCC table. The app does not request GPS access or save the IP address. An automatically detected country stays out of the page URL; only a URL or manual choice is shareable.
The browser requests the published IRCC JSON feeds from Canada.ca to check current aggregate processing-time data. Canada.ca therefore receives ordinary web-request metadata such as the visitor’s IP address and browser information. Processing Radar does not send names, case identifiers, or application details with those requests.
Cloudflare protects this site and may set the encrypted, site-specific __cf_bm cookie for bot detection. Cloudflare documents that it expires after 30 minutes of inactivity and does not correspond to a Processing Radar user account or application user ID.
No analytics or ad script is included in the current build. If privacy-safe Cloudflare Web Analytics is added, this page must be updated with the purpose, scope, retention, and user choices before launch.
No AdSense or paid Google Ads code is present. Any future publisher advertising must remain visually separate from IRCC source links and controls, reserve its layout space, and be approved only after the site has useful public content and measured trust guardrails.
