Three steps to a tracked link
Drop the file.
Open the HTML to link tool and drop your page: one .html file, up to 30 MB. Nothing is uploaded yet. If the page is already online, paste its address instead.
Create an account, or sign in.
The file uploads and HTMLRadar hosts it. Your file stays as it is: the reading is measured when the page is served.
Ask for an e-mail, then send.
On the document page, select New link. Under What readers do before it opens, choose Enter their e-mail and confirm it with a code, then select Create link and send it. Without that step you see that someone opened it, not who.
What you see for each reader
- Who opened it, by the e-mail address they gave, and when. A reader who comes back shows up again.
- An e-mail to you the moment the page is first opened.
- How long they spent on each section. A section counts only once it has been at least half on screen for a continuous second, so scrolling past records nothing.
- How far they scrolled, their device and browser, and their country and city.
- A CSV download of all of it. On the free plan, the first five readers of each link are shown and readers after that are counted.

What is never recorded: what a reader types or where their mouse goes. There are no third-party trackers on the page, and readers’ network addresses are not stored.
What your readers see
Your page, on a link. If the link asks for an e-mail, the reader types it, and the code if you turned that on. Under the field is one line, “By continuing you accept HTMLRadar’s reader terms”, and a page with no gate ends with a link to the same terms, which set out what is recorded.
Pages on the free plan carry a small “Sent with HTMLRadar” line. Paid plans carry none.
What it cannot tell you
A code proves someone could open that mailbox when the page opened. It does not prove who sat in front of the screen afterwards.
A file sent as an attachment reports nothing, and a page on an ordinary web host counts visits without saying whose they were; only reads through the link count. A copy already sent as an attachment stays silent, so send the link from now on.
