Asking Dashlytix on this website
The website assistant (“Ask Dashlytix”) answers questions about our published website content. When you send a message, your question, recent conversation and the page path are sent through our server to Google’s Gemini service to generate a response. It does not connect to your business systems or customer data. Please do not include confidential, sensitive or personal information in your questions.
Recent messages are kept in your browser’s session storage so you can continue the conversation as you move between pages in the same tab. Use “New conversation” in the assistant to clear that local history. We also send your question and The answer, together with operational details such as response time and status, to Sentry for troubleshooting and improving the assistant. These server-side logs are separate from your browser history: “New conversation” does not delete them. Retention is governed by our Sentry project settings. Requests and logs are also subject to our hosting, AI and monitoring providers’ processing practices.
Booking a time and sending a message
When you book a time on the contact page, the name, email address, company and notes you enter are used to create a Google Calendar event with a Google Meet link, and a calendar invitation is sent to you and to the Dashlytix team from contact@dashlytix.com. The booking is handled by Google Workspace on our behalf; this website only checks the team’s free/busy times and does not keep a copy of your booking.
A message sent from the contact page form, with the email address you give, is delivered to the team by email from contact@dashlytix.com and is not stored on this site. We use these details only to hold the meeting or reply to you.
Analytics and cookies
This site uses Google Analytics 4, and it is on by default. You can turn it off at any time with the control at the end of this section. Turning it off stops any further events immediately and clears the Google Analytics cookies this site can see; the choice is kept in this browser’s local storage, applies to this browser only, and is not undone by us.
While it is on we record page views and a small set of interactions: the assistant opening, a message sent and answered, a contact form started or sent, a booking opened, a time chosen and a booking confirmed, and the broad category of anything that failed. Each event carries the page path only. Query strings and fragments are removed before anything is sent, so the wording of a question or a preselected booking time in the address bar is never included. We do not send your name, email address, company, message text, booking details or error messages: event values are limited to short fixed labels and counts, and anything else is discarded in the browser.
Google Signals, advertising features and ad personalisation are switched off, so this measurement is not used to build advertising audiences or to recognise you on other sites. Google sets its own “_ga” cookies to tell a first visit from a return visit; they expire after 13 months. Google derives an approximate location from your IP address and does not retain the address itself in Analytics. Google processes this data as our provider, which can include transfer overseas, and retention is governed by our Google Analytics property settings. If you would rather nothing was measured at all, use the control below, or write to us at privacy@dashlytix.com.
