Privacy Policy & Disclaimers
How CalcAny collects, uses, and protects your data, alongside important medical and health disclaimers.
1. Introduction
Welcome to CalcAny. We respect your privacy and are committed to protecting your personal data. This policy explains how we look after your personal data when you visit our website, your privacy rights, and how the law protects you.
2. Data We Collect & The Client-Side Guarantee
- Calculation Data: All calculations are performed actively in your browser ("Client-Side"). We do not transmit your input numbers (e.g., salary, age, weight) to our servers. They remain strictly on your device.
- Local Storage: We use your browser's "Local Storage" to save your preferences (such as Dark Mode settings or recent calculator choices). This data is stored locally on your device and is never sent to us.
- Usage Data: We collect anonymous data about how you interact with our website (e.g., pages visited, time spent, device type) to improve our tools.
Data Security & Infrastructure
As a project built by researchers based in Germany, we adhere to strict data minimization principles. Our website forces secure HTTPS/SSL encryption for all connections. Because no calculation data is ever sent to a backend database, there is zero risk of your sensitive financial or health metrics being exposed in a server data breach.
3. Advertising & Google AdSense
We use Google AdSense to display advertisements on our website. To provide these ads, Google and its partners use cookies. In accordance with Google’s policies, please be aware of the following:
- Third-party vendors, including Google, use cookies to serve ads based on a user's prior visits to this website or other websites.
- Google's use of advertising cookies enables it and its partners to serve ads based on visits to our sites and/or other sites on the Internet.
- Users may opt out of personalized advertising by visiting Google Ads Settings.
- Alternatively, opt out of a third-party vendor's use of cookies for personalized advertising by visiting www.aboutads.info.
4. Google Analytics
We use Google Analytics 4 (GA4) to analyze website traffic and improve user experience. Google Analytics uses cookies to help the website analyze how users use the site.
- IP Anonymization: We have activated IP anonymization. Your IP address will be shortened by Google within member states of the European Union or other contracting states of the EEA.
- Opt-Out: You can prevent Google from collecting and processing your data by installing the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on.
5. Cookies & Consent
Cookies are small text files stored on your device. We use them for essential website functions, analytics, and advertising. When you visit our site (especially from the EEA or UK), you will be presented with a Consent Management banner provided by Google to manage your preferences at any time.
6. Your Rights (GDPR & CCPA)
Depending on your location, you have data protection rights, including the right to access, correct, delete, or limit the use of your Personal Data. Because we do not create user accounts or store personal calculation data on our servers, any data collected is strictly via the third-party cookies mentioned above, which you can manage via the provided opt-out links.
7. Medical & Health Disclaimer
The health and fitness tools provided on CalcAny (such as the BMI, Waist-to-Height Ratio, and Max Heart Rate calculators) are designed for educational and informational purposes only. They do not constitute medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment. Always consult with a qualified healthcare provider or physician before making any medical decisions, changing your diet, or starting a new exercise program.
