Privacy Policy

PawCalc is designed to collect as little as possible. Our calculators run entirely in your browser, we have no accounts, and we do not sell data — because there is nothing to sell.

1. What we collect

Calculator inputs. Anything you type into a calculator — your pet's weight, age, breed — stays on your device. It is processed in your browser and never sent to our servers. When you close the page, it is gone.

Contact emails. If you email us, we receive your email address and whatever you write. We use it only to reply to you, and we do not share it, sell it, or add it to a mailing list. There is no newsletter and no marketing email from PawCalc.

Server logs. Like almost every website, our hosting provider keeps basic server logs — the pages requested, the time, and a truncated IP address — for security and to keep the site running. We do not use these logs to identify individual visitors.

2. Cookies and analytics

PawCalc uses no tracking cookies and no advertising cookies. If we add privacy-respecting analytics in the future (for example, to see which guides are most read), we will update this policy first and describe exactly what is measured. See the Cookie Policy for the current state of play.

3. Third parties

The site is hosted on Cloudflare Pages. Cloudflare may process requests as part of delivering the site, under its own privacy policy. We use no third-party advertising networks, no social media trackers, and no embedded content that phones home. Affiliate links, if any appear in the future, are labelled clearly — see the Affiliate Disclosure — and clicking one takes you to the retailer's site, which has its own privacy policy.

4. Children

PawCalc is a general-audience site about pets. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children, and we have no accounts or features aimed at children.

5. Your rights

Because we do not hold accounts or profiles, there is usually nothing to delete. If you emailed us and want that email deleted, write to us from the same address and ask — we will delete it and confirm. If you are in the UK or EU, you have the usual rights under data protection law (access, correction, deletion, objection); contact us and we will honour them.

6. Changes to this policy

If this policy changes, we will update the date at the top of this page. Material changes — for example, adding analytics — will be noted here before they take effect. Continued use of the site after a change means you accept the updated policy.

7. Contact

Questions about privacy: see the Contact page. PawCalc is a small independent project; there is no separate data protection officer.
