Privacy Policy

TheProfitCalcs ("we," "us," or "our") operates theprofitcalcs.com (the "Site"). This Privacy Policy explains what information we collect, how we use it, who we share it with, and the choices you have. By using the Site, you agree to the practices described below.

Information We Collect

We try to collect as little personal information as possible. We do not require you to create an account, and the calculator inputs you enter stay in your browser. We do, however, collect standard technical information when you visit the Site, including your IP address, browser type and version, operating system, referring URL, pages viewed, time spent on pages, and the date and time of your visit. This data is gathered through server log files and analytics cookies, and is used in aggregate to understand traffic patterns and improve the Site.

How We Use Your Information

We use the information described above to operate and maintain the Site, monitor and analyze usage and trends, detect and prevent abuse or technical issues, improve our calculators and content, and serve advertisements that help keep the Site free. We do not sell your personal information.

Third-Party Services

We use a small number of third-party services that may collect information about your visit. These include Google Analytics for aggregate traffic measurement, Google AdSense for display advertising, and affiliate partners such as QuickBooks, FreshBooks, and other accounting, bookkeeping, and finance providers. When you click an affiliate link, the partner may set its own cookie and we may earn a commission if you sign up or make a purchase. These third parties have their own privacy policies that govern their handling of your information.

Cookies and Tracking Technologies

We and our partners use cookies and similar technologies to remember your preferences, understand how the Site is used, and deliver relevant advertising. Google, as a third-party vendor, uses cookies to serve ads on our Site. Google's use of advertising cookies enables it and its partners to serve ads to you based on your visit to this and other sites on the Internet. This includes the DoubleClick DART cookie, which allows Google and its partners to serve personalized ads.

You may opt out of personalized advertising by visiting adssettings.google.com. You can also opt out of third-party vendor use of cookies for personalized advertising at www.aboutads.info. Most browsers also let you block or delete cookies through their settings; doing so may affect how the Site functions.

Children's Privacy

The Site is not directed at children under the age of 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If you believe that a child has provided us with personal information, please contact us and we will delete it.

Your Rights

If you are a resident of California, the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA) gives you the right to request access to the personal information we hold about you, request that we delete it, and opt out of any sale of personal information. We do not sell personal information.

If you are in the European Economic Area or the United Kingdom, the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) gives you the right to access, correct, or delete personal data we hold about you, restrict or object to certain processing, and request data portability. To exercise any of these rights, contact us at the address below.

Data Security

We use reasonable administrative and technical safeguards to protect the information we collect, including HTTPS encryption for all traffic to and from the Site. No method of transmission over the Internet is perfectly secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.

Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. When we do, we will revise the effective date at the top of this page. Material changes will be noted prominently on the Site. Your continued use of the Site after an update constitutes acceptance of the revised policy.
