1. Overview
This Privacy Policy explains how CalculateWhatever.com (“CalculateWhatever,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) handles information when you visit or use our website, calculators, converters, forms, and related services.
By using the website, you acknowledge the practices described in this policy. Where consent is required by applicable law, we will request it before using information for that purpose.
2. Information we collect
Information you provide voluntarily
We may collect information you choose to submit through our Contact or Tool Request forms, including your name, email address, website, requested calculator name, subject, and message.
Information collected automatically
Like most websites, our web server and security systems may automatically receive limited technical information, such as:
- Internet Protocol (IP) address
- Browser type, device type, and operating system
- Requested pages, referring page, date, and time
- Basic error, performance, and security logs
This information is used to deliver the website, protect it from abuse, diagnose technical problems, and understand general website performance.
3. Calculator and converter inputs
Many tools are designed to perform calculations directly in your browser. Values entered into these tools are not intentionally saved to a user profile because standard calculator use does not require an account.
Some features may generate a shareable result, preserve values in a page URL, or send information to the server when this is necessary to provide the requested feature. Do not enter confidential, sensitive, or personally identifying information unless the tool clearly requires it and you are comfortable providing it.
4. How we use information
We may use collected information to:
- Provide, operate, maintain, and improve the website
- Generate calculator or converter results
- Respond to messages, feedback, and tool requests
- Detect spam, fraud, attacks, and other misuse
- Monitor errors, reliability, and website performance
- Comply with legal obligations and enforce our Terms of Use
We do not sell personal information provided through our forms.
5. Cookies and local storage
Cookies are small files stored by your browser. We may use essential cookies or similar browser storage for security, session management, form protection, user preferences, and core website functionality.
Your browser may allow you to block or delete cookies. Disabling essential storage may affect certain website features.
6. Hosting and service providers
We may use trusted service providers for website hosting, content delivery, email delivery, security, spam prevention, performance monitoring, backups, or analytics. These providers may process limited information on our behalf only as needed to provide their services.
At the time this policy was last updated, the website does not state that it displays third-party advertising. If advertising or materially different tracking technologies are introduced, this policy and any required consent controls should be updated before deployment.
7. Data retention
We retain information only for as long as reasonably necessary for the purpose for which it was collected, including responding to requests, maintaining records, preventing abuse, resolving disputes, and meeting legal or security requirements.
Server logs and backups may be retained for limited operational and security periods before being deleted or overwritten.
8. Your privacy choices and rights
Depending on your location, you may have rights regarding your personal information, such as requesting access, correction, deletion, restriction, or objection to certain processing.
To make a privacy request, contact us using the details below. We may need to verify your identity before completing a request. Some information may be retained where required by law or necessary for security, fraud prevention, or legal claims.
9. Children's privacy
CalculateWhatever is a general-audience website and is not intentionally directed to children below the minimum age required to consent to online data processing in their country. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children through our contact forms without appropriate authorization.
If you believe a child has submitted personal information, please contact us so we can review and, where appropriate, delete it.
10. Data security
We use reasonable administrative and technical measures intended to protect information against unauthorized access, loss, misuse, or alteration. However, no website, transmission, or storage method can be guaranteed to be completely secure.
11. International visitors
The website may be accessed from different countries. Information may be processed or stored in a country with data protection rules different from those in your location. By using the website and submitting information, you understand that such processing may occur subject to applicable law.
12. External links
Our pages may link to third-party websites or sources. We do not control their privacy practices. Review the privacy policy of any third-party website before providing personal information.
13. Changes to this policy
We may update this Privacy Policy as the website, technology, or legal requirements change. The updated version will be posted on this page with a revised effective date. Material changes may also be communicated through an appropriate website notice.
