Introduction

Welcome to Calcbox. We are committed to protecting your privacy and ensuring transparency about how we handle information. This Privacy Policy explains our practices regarding data collection, use, and protection.

Information We Collect

Information You Provide

Calcbox operates as a client-side web application. All calculations are performed locally in your browser. We do not collect, store, or transmit any data you enter into our calculators, including:

  • Personal information (name, email, phone number)
  • Financial data (loan amounts, income, expenses)
  • Health data (weight, height, body measurements)
  • Academic data (grades, GPA, course information)
  • Any other data entered into our calculation tools

Automatically Collected Information

Like most websites, we may collect certain information automatically:

  • Usage Data: Pages visited, time spent, browser type, device type
  • Technical Data: IP address, browser version, operating system
  • Cookies: We use minimal cookies only for essential functionality (theme preference)

How We Use Information

The limited information we collect is used to:

  • Improve website functionality and user experience
  • Understand how visitors use our calculators
  • Analyze traffic patterns and optimize performance
  • Identify and fix technical issues
  • Comply with legal obligations

Data Storage and Security

Local Processing: All calculator data is processed locally in your browser using JavaScript. No calculation data is transmitted to our servers or any third parties.

Theme Preferences: Your light/dark mode preference is stored locally in your browser's localStorage and is never transmitted or shared.

  • Clear your browser's localStorage and cookies at any time
  • Use browser privacy modes to prevent any local storage
  • Contact us with privacy concerns or questions

Children's Privacy

Our services are available to users of all ages. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. Since we don't collect data through our calculators, this risk is minimal. If you believe we have inadvertently collected information from a child, please contact us.
