Overview

CalcWise ("we", "us", or "our") operates the website trycalcwise.com. This Privacy Policy explains what information we collect, how we use it, and what rights you have in relation to it. We are committed to protecting your privacy and being transparent about our data practices.

Information We Collect

Information you enter into calculators

All calculations on CalcWise run entirely in your browser. Numbers you enter into our calculators (home price, income, loan amounts, etc.) are never sent to our servers. This data exists only in your browser session and is not stored, logged, or transmitted anywhere.

Automatically collected information

When you visit CalcWise, we and our third-party partners may automatically collect certain information, including:

  • IP address and approximate geographic location (country/region)
  • Browser type and version
  • Operating system

Information you provide voluntarily

If you contact us via email, we collect the information you include in your message (name, email address, and any content you provide).

Cookies and Tracking Technologies

CalcWise uses cookies and similar technologies for the following purposes:

Analytics (Google Analytics)

We use Google Analytics to understand how visitors use our site — which pages are most visited, how long people stay, and where traffic comes from. Google Analytics collects data anonymously and reports website trends without identifying individual visitors. You can opt out of Google Analytics by installing the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on.

Advertising (Google AdSense)

We display advertisements through Google AdSense. Google and its partners use cookies to serve ads based on your prior visits to our site and other sites on the internet. You can opt out of personalized advertising by visiting Google's Ads Settings or by visiting aboutads.info.

Google's use of advertising cookies enables it and its partners to serve ads to you based on your visit to CalcWise and/or other sites on the Internet. For more information about how Google uses data when you use our site, visit Google's Privacy & Terms.
