Privacy Policy

BeastCalculator is committed to protecting your privacy. This policy explains how we collect, use, and protect your information when you use our calculator tools.

By using beastcalculator.com, you agree to this Privacy Policy and our Terms of Service.

1. Who We Are & How to Contact Us

Controller: BeastCalculator

Email: BeastCalculators@gmail.com

Contact page: /contact-us

If required by law (e.g., EU/UK), we will appoint a representative and update this page.

2. What We Collect

a) Information you provide

  • Contact messages / request forms: name, email, message content, any files you upload
  • Partnership/press/advertising inquiries: business contact details

b) Information collected automatically

  • Device & usage data: IP address, user-agent, pages viewed, timestamps, referrer, approximate location
  • Performance & error logs: request IDs, response codes for site reliability and security
  • Analytics events: page views, clicks, search queries (aggregated, cookieless)

c) Calculator inputs

  • By default, calculator inputs are processed in your browser and not stored on our servers
  • If server-side processing is needed (rare), we keep only what's necessary temporarily
  • If you explicitly submit inputs via feedback, we store what you send as part of your message

d) Analytics (Cookieless)

We use Google Analytics 4 in cookieless mode to understand how BeastCalculator is used:

  • No cookies or personal identifiers are stored
  • Google receives only aggregated, anonymous usage data
  • We have disabled ads personalization, Google Signals, and all cookie-based tracking

Some calculators may save non-identifying preferences (e.g., preferred units) in your browser's local storage for convenience - this data never leaves your device.

3. Why We Use Your Data

  • Provide and operate the site and calculators
  • Measure usage and improve usability, speed, and accessibility
  • Reply to messages, requests, and support inquiries
  • Detect, prevent, and respond to security incidents and abuse
  • Comply with legal obligations and enforce our terms
  • (If enabled) Serve and measure advertising in a privacy-respecting way

4. Legal Bases (EEA/UK)

Where GDPR/UK GDPR applies, we rely on:

  • Performance of a contract (providing the site/services you request)
  • Legitimate interests (improving the site, security, fraud prevention)
  • Consent (non-essential cookies/ads/marketing)
  • Legal obligation (records, compliance)

You can withdraw consent at any time via Cookie Preferences.

5. Sharing & Processors

We do not sell personal information.

We share data only with:

  • Service providers (processors) that help us run the site (hosting/CDN, analytics, email)
  • Legal/Compliance if required by law or to protect rights, safety, and security
  • Business transfers in the event of a merger, acquisition, or asset sale

Typical processors: web hosting/CDN, error monitoring, analytics (Google Analytics 4), email service, anti-spam/captcha.

6. Advertising & Affiliates (if applicable)

If we enable ads (e.g., Google AdSense) or affiliate links:

  • Partners may set cookies or read your consent signals
  • Sponsored/affiliate content will be labeled

See Cookie Policy and Advertising/Affiliate Disclosure (if published).

7. Data Retention

  • Contact/Support messages: typically 24 months unless required longer for legal reasons
  • Server logs: typically 30–180 days for security and troubleshooting
  • Analytics data: retained per provider's settings (commonly 14–26 months, aggregated)
  • Calculator inputs: not stored by default; if submitted as feedback, retained with that message

We delete or anonymize data when it's no longer needed.

8. Security

We use industry-standard technical and organizational measures (TLS/HTTPS, access controls, least-privilege, monitoring). No method of transmission or storage is 100% secure; use the site at your own risk and notify us of any concerns.

9. International Transfers

We may process data in countries other than yours. Where required, we rely on appropriate safeguards such as Standard Contractual Clauses (SCCs) or comparable mechanisms. Contact us for details.

10. Your Rights

Depending on your location, you may have rights to:

  • Access the personal data we hold about you
  • Correct inaccurate or incomplete data
  • Delete your data (erasure)
  • Restrict or object to certain processing
  • Data portability (receive data in a structured, machine-readable format)
  • Withdraw consent where processing relies on consent
  • Lodge a complaint with your supervisory authority

California/CPRA

California residents have rights to know/access, delete, correct, and opt out of certain disclosures. We do not sell personal information. To exercise rights, contact us.

To make a request, email us from the address you used with us and describe your request. We may take reasonable steps to verify your identity.

11. Children's Privacy

The site is not directed to children under 13 (or the age of digital consent in your region). We do not knowingly collect personal data from children. If you believe a child provided personal data, contact us to delete it.

12. Third-party Links

We link to external sites for sources and references. Their privacy practices are their own; review their policies separately.

13. Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. The "Last updated" date reflects the latest version. Continued use of the site after changes means you accept the updated policy.
