Privacy Policy
1. About This Policy
This Privacy Policy applies to Calculixy, operated by Calculixy, LLC ("we," "us," or "our"), and governs how we handle information in connection with calculixy.com. By using the Site you agree to the practices described here. If you disagree, please discontinue use.
We may update this policy when our practices change. The "Last updated" date above reflects the most recent revision. Continued use of the Site after changes are posted constitutes acceptance.
2. Information We Do Not Collect
Calculator calculations are performed in your browser using client-side JavaScript. To support persistence, restoration, and Save/Sync functionality, certain calculator inputs, preferences, and saved state may be stored locally in your browser on your device. This browser-local storage is distinct from storage on Calculixy servers. The current calculator state manager does not provide general server-side storage of calculator inputs. User-invoked sharing or email features may place selected calculator state into a share link or message that you choose to send, and some tools may use external data sources for non-user-input reference data.
We do not request, collect, or want to receive sensitive personal data such as Social Security numbers, bank credentials, tax identification numbers, insurance policy numbers, or medical record numbers through any calculator or contact form.
3. Information You Voluntarily Submit
If you use our contact form, you may provide your name (optional), email address, issue type, and a message. We use this solely to respond to your enquiry and improve site accuracy. We do not share contact form submissions with third parties for marketing. Information is retained only as long as reasonably necessary to resolve your enquiry.
4. Automatically Collected Information
Our hosting infrastructure automatically collects standard server log data when you access the Site, including IP address, browser type and version, operating system, referring URL, pages viewed, and timestamps. This information is used in aggregate for security and performance monitoring. It is not used to identify individual users and is not linked to personally identifiable information.
5. Cookies
Essential cookies
Strictly necessary for the Site to function, including storing your cookie consent preferences. These cannot be disabled while using the Site and do not collect data used for advertising or analytics.
Non-essential cookies (require your consent)
With your explicit consent via the cookie banner, we may deploy:
- Advertising cookies — Used to serve relevant advertising through third-party ad networks including Google AdSense. These cookies may track browsing activity across websites to personalize ads.
- Analytics cookies — Used to understand how visitors interact with the Site in aggregate. Data is anonymized and aggregated before analysis. The anonymous
cx_ab_idexperimentation cookie is treated as an analytics cookie and is created only when Analytics consent (or combined non-essential consent) is enabled.
You may update your cookie preferences at any time through the cookie banner. If Analytics consent is not enabled or is later withdrawn, Calculixy stops creating or using cx_ab_id for experimentation and removes that cookie under the site consent contract. You can also remove cookies through your browser's settings.
6. Google AdSense and Advertising
Calculixy participates in Google AdSense. Google uses the DoubleClick DART cookie to serve ads based on your prior visits to this and other websites. You may opt out of personalized advertising at any time:
Third-party advertising partners may use cookies, web beacons, and similar technologies to serve ads and measure performance. These partners operate under their own privacy policies. Calculixy may add or change ad partners; any new partner is subject to the same data-use principles described here.

Calculixy is not directed to children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If you believe we have inadvertently received such information, please contact us immediately and we will delete it promptly.
9. Data Security
We implement reasonable technical and organizational measures to protect contact form submissions against unauthorized access or disclosure. No method of Internet transmission is 100% secure. We strongly recommend never entering sensitive credentials (Social Security numbers, banking passwords, tax IDs) into any website, including Calculixy.
10. Third-Party Links
The Site may contain links to third-party websites. We are not responsible for the privacy practices or content of those sites. Please review the privacy policy of any external site you visit.
