    6. Third-Party Services

    Our website uses the following third-party services:

    • Hosting providers: For website delivery and security
    • Google Analytics 4: To understand how visitors use our site. We implement Google Consent Mode v2, which means analytics cookies are only set after you provide consent via our cookie banner. If you decline, Google Analytics operates in a privacy-preserving cookieless mode.
    • Google AdSense: Our site is under review for Google AdSense. If approved, ads would help keep our calculators free. See "Advertising" below.
    • Content delivery networks: For faster page loading

    These third parties have their own privacy policies. See our Cookie Policy for more details.

    Advertising

    • Our site has applied for Google AdSense and is under review. The information below applies when ads are active on the site. When ads are shown, third-party vendors, including Google, use cookies to serve ads based on a user's prior visits to this website or other websites.
    • Google's use of advertising cookies enables it and its partners to serve ads to you based on your visits to this site and/or other sites on the Internet. These cookies are also used to limit how often you see an ad, measure ad performance, and help prevent fraud.
    • Ads can be personalized (based on your interests) or non-personalized (based on general context such as the page you are reading and your approximate location). Our own cookie banner controls analytics only; it does not switch on advertising cookies.
    • In the European Economic Area, the UK and Switzerland, Google only serves personalized ads when consent has been given through a Google-certified consent message. Otherwise, ads there are non-personalized or limited.
    • You can opt out of personalized advertising from Google at Google Ads Settings. You can opt out of some other vendors' use of cookies for personalized advertising at www.aboutads.info.
    • Learn more in how Google uses cookies in advertising and how Google uses information from sites that use its services.

    7. Data Security

    We implement appropriate technical and organizational measures to protect your information, including:

    • HTTPS encryption for all data transmission
    • Client-side calculations to minimize data exposure
    • Regular security assessments of our website

    However, no method of transmission over the Internet is 100% secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.

    8. Children's Privacy

    Our service is not intended for children under 13 years of age. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If you are a parent or guardian and believe your child has provided us with personal information, please contact us.

    • Right to deletion: Request deletion of your personal information
    • Right to opt-out: Opt out of certain data collection practices
    • Right to non-discrimination: Exercise your rights without discrimination

    Since we do not store personal data on our servers, most of these rights are automatically fulfilled by our privacy-first design.

    10. California Privacy Rights (CCPA)

    If you are a California resident, you have additional rights under the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA). As we do not sell personal information and minimize data collection, we are committed to complying with CCPA requirements.

    11. European Privacy Rights (GDPR)

    If you are located in the European Economic Area (EEA), you have rights under the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). Our privacy-first approach, including client-side processing and minimal data collection, is designed to comply with GDPR principles.
