Privacy Policy

1. Who We Are

CalculatorCove (“we,” “us,” or “our”) operates the website calculatorcove.com, a free online calculator library covering finance and construction.

For questions about this Privacy Policy, contact us at: calculatorcove.com/contact/ or email info@calculatorcove.com.

2. Calculator Inputs — Not Collected

Every calculator on CalculatorCove runs entirely in your browser using JavaScript. This means:

• The numbers you enter into any calculator field never leave your device
• Your calculation results are never transmitted to our servers
• We have no record of what you calculated, when, or how many times
• Calculator inputs are not logged in any server-side system
• Clearing your browser cache removes any locally stored state entirely

This applies to all calculators across all two categories without exception. Financial figures, health measurements, legal estimates, and all other inputs you provide are processed locally and discarded when you close or refresh the page.

3. Data We Do Collect

Google Analytics 4 (GA4)

We use Google Analytics 4 to understand aggregate usage patterns. GA4 collects the following categories of data when you visit calculatorcove.com:

• Page views: Which pages are visited and in what order (not linked to individuals)
• Session data: Session duration, pages per session, and bounce rate aggregated across all users
• Device and browser: Browser type, operating system, screen size category, and device type (desktop/mobile/tablet)
• Geographic region: Country and approximate region (city-level data is not retained)
• Traffic source: How visitors arrived (search, direct, referral, social)
• Event data: Button clicks, form submissions, and calculator interactions — recorded as event types only, never including input values

GA4 data is processed by Google under their data processing terms. Google’s privacy policy is available at policies.google.com/privacy. We have enabled IP anonymisation in our GA4 configuration. We do not use GA4 data for advertising targeting or share it with third parties beyond Google’s standard processing.

Contact Form Submissions

When you submit the contact form or calculator request form at /contact/, we collect your name, email address, and message content. This data is used solely to respond to your inquiry or build the calculator you requested. We do not add contact form submissions to any marketing list. We do not share this data with third parties.

Server Logs

Our web host (Hostinger) automatically records standard server access logs including IP addresses, request timestamps, and HTTP status codes. These logs are used for security monitoring and are retained for a maximum of 30 days before automatic deletion. We do not analyse server logs for user behaviour tracking.

4. Cookies

CalculatorCove uses cookies in the following limited ways:

• Google Analytics cookies: GA4 sets first-party cookies (_ga, _ga_*) to distinguish sessions for aggregate measurement. These cookies do not identify you personally. They expire after 2 years.
• No advertising cookies: We do not run advertising on CalculatorCove. No advertising network cookies are set by this site.
• No login or account cookies: CalculatorCove has no user accounts. No authentication cookies are set.

You can disable cookies entirely through your browser settings. Disabling cookies will not affect your ability to use any calculator on this site since calculators run without cookies.

5. Third-Party Services

CalculatorCove uses the following third-party services that may process data in connection with your visit:

• Google Analytics 4 — aggregate traffic analytics. Google Privacy Policy
• Hostinger — web hosting provider. Standard server-level data processing. Hostinger Privacy Policy

We do not use any advertising networks, affiliate tracking services, social media tracking pixels, or data brokers. External links on CalculatorCove go to primary sources (government sites, official standards, peer-reviewed publications). Learn more about our formula verification methodology. Clicking those links takes you to those third parties’ websites, which have their own privacy policies.
