Privacy Policy

If you accept our consent banner, we use Google Analytics 4 (GA4) provided by Google Ireland Limited, Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland, to understand website usage and improve our calculators.

With your consent, we capture aggregated interaction events: page views; completed calculations and result ratings (calculator type, star rating from 0.5 to 5 where applicable, along with anonymous form configuration options for that result); homepage search box usage (without the entered search text); and share or copy actions (calculator type and method only). Calculated gift amounts, budget inputs, personal details, free-text inputs, or shared result link contents are never intentionally sent as event parameters. Names, email addresses, and other personal data are never collected through calculator analytics.

Google Analytics also collects standard technical usage data required for the service, such as truncated or anonymized IP addresses (IP anonymization is enabled), approximate location (e.g., country), browser and device information, session identifiers, interaction duration, page path, page title, and referrer URL. We configure analytics so page URLs are transmitted without query parameters, preventing selection values from shared links from being passed along. Google may process data in the United States. We do not use Google Analytics advertising features for personalized advertising; optional aggregated demographic reporting (such as age or gender via Google Signals) occurs only based on your analytics consent.

Analytics, non-essential cookies, and personalized Google AdSense ads are activated only after you click Accept & Continue on the consent banner. You can decline with No, thank you on the same banner. Your choice is stored locally in your browser (Local Storage: analytics-consent). Until you accept, Google Consent Mode blocks analytics storage, ad storage, and ad personalization. If your browser sends a Global Privacy Control (GPC) signal, we treat it as a rejection for analytics, non-essential cookies, and personalized ads, and we do not show the banner. You can revoke a prior Accept & Continue choice by clearing website data. The banner reappears on your next visit unless GPC remains active.

Legal Basis / Consent: User consent under applicable US state privacy frameworks (such as CCPA/CPRA opt-in standards). Google may process data in the US. More information: Google Privacy Policy.

We use Google AdSense to display advertisements on our website. Google uses cookies to serve ads based on your prior visits to our website or other websites. The use of advertising cookies enables Google and its partners to serve ads based on your visits to our and/or other sites across the internet. Personalized ads run only after Accept & Continue. No, thank you and a Global Privacy Control (GPC) signal both block personalized ads through Google Consent Mode.

You can opt out of personalized advertising by visiting Google Ad Settings or alternatively via www.aboutads.info.

Legal basis for personalized advertising cookies: User consent where required under applicable regional privacy standards. More information: Google Advertising and the Google Privacy Policy.

We offer the ability to share calculated results via your device's native sharing feature (e.g., via messaging apps, email, or SMS) or copy the link directly to your clipboard.

How it works: When clicking 'Share Result' or 'Copy Result Link', our application interacts exclusively with local browser or operating system interfaces (the Web Share API `navigator.share` and clipboard-based copy functionality).

Data processing: No personal data is transmitted to our servers or third-party providers during this action. The creation of the personalized link and opening of your operating system share menu occur entirely locally on your device (client-side).

User responsibility: Only when you actively select a service (such as a messaging app or mail client) in your local device menu to send the link does data processing occur through that respective third party. We have no control over third-party data practices. The privacy policies of your chosen services apply.

Legal basis: Providing this local function relies on our legitimate interest in delivering a convenient, privacy-friendly, and user-oriented functionality.

If you have consented to analytics, we additionally log that you utilized the share or copy function (calculator type and method only). Gift amounts and link contents are never transmitted.
