Privacy Policy
We believe math should be transparent, and so should our privacy practices. Here is exactly how we handle your data.
No Input Storage
The numbers you enter into our calculators are processed in your browser. We don’t save them to our servers.
No Accounts
You don’t need to sign up or provide an email address to use any of our calculators.
Transparent Ads
We show ads to keep the site free. We clearly label them and ensure they don’t block functionality.
1. Information We Collect
CalcuTotal is designed to be used anonymously.
- Calculator Inputs: We do not store or harvest the data you enter into calculator fields. Calculations are performed locally in your web browser or transiently on our server to return a result, without being saved to a database.
- Personal Information: We do not collect your name, email address, phone number, or physical address unless you voluntarily provide it when contacting us for support.
- Usage Data: Like most websites, we collect non-personal information about how visitors use our site. This includes your browser type, device type, time spent on pages, and referring websites. This helps us fix bugs and improve site speed.
2. Cookies and Tracking Technologies
We use cookies (small text files stored on your device) for specific, limited purposes:
- Essential Cookies: These are necessary for the website to function, such as remembering your theme preference (light/dark mode).
- Analytics: We use trusted third-party analytics services (such as Google Analytics) to understand traffic patterns. These services use cookies to collect anonymous data about your visit.
- Advertising: We partner with third-party ad networks (such as Google AdSense) to display advertisements. These networks may use cookies to serve ads based on your prior visits to our website or other websites.
Your Choice: You can disable cookies in your browser settings at any time. However, some features of the site (like theme preferences) may not work correctly without them.
3. Third-Party Services
We use a few trusted external providers to keep the site running:
- Hosting: Our website is hosted on secure platforms that may log IP addresses for security and abuse prevention (e.g., to stop DDoS attacks).
- Advertising Partners: Third-party vendors, including Google, use cookies to serve ads based on a user’s prior visits to your website or other websites. Google’s use of advertising cookies enables it and its partners to serve ads to your users based on their visit to your sites and/or other sites on the Internet.
You can opt out of personalized advertising by visiting Google Ad Settings or www.aboutads.info.
4. Data Security
We implement standard security measures to protect our website. Since we do not store user accounts or sensitive personal data, the risk of data breach affecting our users is minimal. We use HTTPS encryption to ensure that your connection to our site is secure.
5. Children’s Privacy
Our website is a general audience site. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under the age of 13. If you believe we have inadvertently collected such information, please contact us, and we will delete it immediately.
6. Changes to This Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes in our practices or for legal reasons. The "Last Updated" date at the top of this page will indicate when the latest changes were made.
