2. Information We Collect

Calculator inputs: All numbers and selections you enter into our calculators are processed entirely in your browser. They are never transmitted to, or stored on, our servers.

Usage analytics: We collect limited, aggregated analytics such as pages visited, approximate location (country), device type, referring site, and time on page. This helps us understand which calculators are useful and improve the site.

Server logs: Our hosting provider records standard request logs (IP address, user-agent, requested URL, timestamp) for security and abuse prevention.
