Privacy Policy

1. Information We Collect

Our pet nutrition calculators are designed to operate without collecting personal information. We do not store or process any data you enter into our calculators. All calculations are performed locally in your browser.

There is one exception. If you choose to join the waiting list for our iPhone app on our app page, the name and email address you enter are submitted to Encharge, our email provider, so that we can email you when the app is released. That form is provided and hosted by Encharge, and your details are stored on their systems rather than ours. You can ask us to remove you at any time by emailing support@calculatorsfordogs.com, and every email we send includes an unsubscribe link. Joining the waiting list is entirely optional, and every calculator on this site works without it.

2. Usage Data

We may collect anonymous usage statistics to improve our services, including:

  • Which calculators are most frequently used
  • General usage patterns
  • Browser types and versions
  • Device types and operating systems

3. Cookies and Local Storage

We use essential cookies and local storage for technical functionality. These technical cookies help ensure our calculators work properly in your browser.

We also work with Mediavine, an advertising management company, to serve ads on this website. Mediavine and its advertising partners may use cookies, web beacons, and similar technologies to collect information about your visit, such as your IP address, browser type, and pages viewed, in order to show ads and measure their performance.

You can learn more about interest-based advertising and opt out at https://optout.aboutads.info/ and https://youradchoices.com/.

The waiting list form on our app page is loaded from Encharge, and it records an anonymous identifier in your browser so that it can tell whether the form has already been shown or submitted. It is used only for that form and is not used for advertising.

4. Data Security

Calculations are performed locally and we do not store what you enter into a calculator, so there is minimal risk to your privacy. The one piece of personal information we do handle, a waiting list email address, is held by Encharge under their own security and privacy practices rather than on this website. We also implement standard security measures to protect our website and services from unauthorized access or cyber attacks.

5. Third-Party Services

Our website may use third-party services for:

  • Website analytics
  • Advertising (Mediavine and its advertising partners)
  • Email delivery and our iPhone app waiting list (Encharge)
  • Content delivery networks
  • Hosting services

These services may collect anonymous usage data subject to their own privacy policies.

6. Children's Privacy

Our services are not directed at children under 13. We do not knowingly collect any personal information from children under 13. If you believe we have inadvertently collected such information, please contact us to have it removed.

7. CalculatorsForDogs iOS App

The CalculatorsForDogs iOS app does not collect personal data. It has no advertising, analytics, crash-reporting or tracking software, and it does not track you across other companies' apps or websites.

What stays on your device: the values you enter into calculators, dog profiles, saved results and reminders are stored only on your device. We do not receive them. Deleting the app deletes this data.

Notifications: reminders are scheduled locally on your device. You can turn them off at any time in iOS Settings.

No account is required. The current version of the app does not offer account sign-up. If account features are added in a future version, this policy will be updated before they are released, and the app will provide in-app account deletion.

Children: the app is not directed at children under 13, and it collects no personal data from anyone.

Links from the app to calculatorsfordogs.com are covered by the website sections of this policy.

Questions about the app or this policy? Please contact us.

8. Changes to Privacy Policy

We may update this privacy policy from time to time. We will notify users of any material changes by posting the new privacy policy on this page and updating the "Last updated" date.

9. Contact Us

If you have any questions about this Privacy Policy, please contact us through our provided contact methods.
