Privacy Policy

1. Introduction

Bro Calculator ("we," "our," or "us") operates brocalculator.com (the "Site"). This Privacy Policy explains what information we collect, how we use it, and the choices you have.

You do not need an account to use our calculators. Calculator inputs and results are processed in your browser for the page you are using. We do not ask for your name, password, or payment details to run a calculation.

By using the Site, you agree to this Privacy Policy and our Terms of Use. If you do not agree, please stop using the Site.

2. Information we collect

Information you provide

If you contact us (for example through the contact form or by email), we receive the details you send, such as your name, email address, and message. We use that information only to respond and to handle your request.

Automatic technical information

Like most websites, our servers and security tools may record standard log data when you visit. This can include IP address, browser type, device or operating system details, pages visited, referring URL, and timestamps. We use this for security, abuse prevention, and basic site reliability.

Analytics

We may use analytics tools (such as Google Analytics) to understand how visitors use the Site, which pages are popular, and where technical issues appear. Analytics providers may set cookies or collect similar technical data. Where available, we prefer settings that reduce identifiability (for example IP anonymization).

Advertising

We may show third-party ads (for example through Google AdSense or similar networks). Those companies may use cookies or similar technologies to serve ads, measure performance, and, where allowed, personalize ads based on browsing activity. We do not sell your contact form messages or calculator inputs as a customer list.

3. Cookies and local storage

We use cookies and similar technologies for essential site functions, remembering preferences (such as theme), analytics, and advertising where those services are active. You can manage cookies in your browser settings.

Calculator preference data stored only on your device (local storage) stays on your device until you clear it. Blocking some cookies may limit analytics or personalized ads, but core calculators should still work.

4. How we use information

  • Operate, secure, and improve the Site
  • Respond to messages and support requests
  • Understand aggregate usage and fix errors
  • Show ads that help keep the Site free
  • Comply with law and enforce our Terms of Use

We do not use calculator inputs from your browser session as a personal profile that we store on our servers for marketing.

5. Sharing with third parties

We may share information with service providers that help us run the Site (hosting, analytics, advertising, email delivery, security). Those providers process data under their own policies when they act as independent controllers (especially ad networks).

We may also disclose information if required by law, to protect rights and safety, or in connection with a business transfer of the Site.

For interest-based advertising opt-outs, see Network Advertising Initiative, Digital Advertising Alliance, and (for Europe) Your Online Choices.

6. Your rights and choices

Depending on where you live, you may have rights to access, correct, delete, or restrict certain personal information, or to object to certain processing. California residents may also have rights under the CCPA/CPRA regarding categories of personal information and opt-outs related to sale or sharing for cross-context advertising, where those concepts apply.

To make a privacy request, email [email protected] with enough detail for us to find your request. We may need to verify your identity before acting. We aim to respond within a few business days, and sooner when the law requires it.

7. Children's privacy

The Site is intended for a general audience. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13 (or under 16 where a higher age applies). If you believe a child has sent us personal information, contact us and we will delete it where required.

8. Security and retention

We use commercially reasonable safeguards to protect information we handle. No method of transmission or storage is 100% secure.

We keep contact messages and logs only as long as needed for the purposes above, then delete or anonymize them, unless a longer period is required by law or dispute handling.

The Site may link to third-party websites. We are not responsible for their content or privacy practices. Review their policies before you provide information to them.

10. Changes to this policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time by posting a revised version on this page. Continued use of the Site after a change means you accept the updated policy.
