Your privacy matters to us. This page explains exactly what we do — and don't do — with your information.
Welcome to CalorieCalculator ("we," "our," or "us"). This Privacy Policy describes how we handle information when you visit and use our website at CalorieCalculator (the "Service").
This policy is written in plain language because we believe you deserve to understand exactly how your data is treated — without needing a law degree.
TL;DR: We don't collect, store, or sell your personal data. Your calculator inputs stay in your browser. That's the whole story.
By using our Service, you agree to the practices described in this Privacy Policy. If you don't agree, please discontinue use of the website.
Here's the straightforward answer: we do not collect any personal information from you.
Specifically, we do not collect, store, process, or have access to:
When you use our calorie calculator or any other tool, all data you enter remains entirely within your web browser. We have no mechanism to access, view, or retrieve it. Once you close or refresh the page, that data is gone.
Since we don't collect personal data, there is no personal data to use. Our tools function entirely on the client side — meaning all calculations happen in your browser using JavaScript. Nothing is sent to any server.
The only data that may be generated and used involves general, anonymized website analytics (described in Section 4), which helps us understand how many people visit our site and which pages are most useful. This data cannot be used to identify you personally.
CalorieCalculator does not set any first-party cookies. We do not use cookies for tracking, advertising, profiling, or any other purpose.
However, some third-party services we use may set their own cookies. These are entirely outside our control:
You can control or disable cookies through your browser settings. Most browsers allow you to block third-party cookies specifically, which would not affect the functionality of our tools.
Our website uses a minimal set of third-party services to function properly. We've chosen each one carefully to minimize data exposure:
We do not use:
If we ever add any new third-party service in the future, we will update this section and the "Last Updated" date at the top of this page.
Since we don't collect or process personal data, there is no personal data to store on our servers. Your calculator inputs exist only temporarily in your browser's memory during your session.
We take the following measures to maintain a secure experience:
While no system can guarantee 100% security, our architecture is designed so that even in the event of a security breach, there would be no personal user data to compromise.
Our Service is available to anyone and does not collect information from any user, including children. Since we don't collect personal data of any kind, there is no risk to children's privacy through our website.
However, we note that our tools provide general nutritional estimates and are not a substitute for professional medical or dietary advice, especially for minors. Parents and guardians should guide children in interpreting health-related information.
Under data protection laws such as the GDPR (European Union), CCPA (California), and similar regulations, you have certain rights regarding your personal data. Here's how those apply to CalorieCalculator:
We take these rights seriously. If you have any questions or want formal written confirmation regarding any of the above, don't hesitate to contact us.
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. When we do, we will change the "Last Updated" date at the top of this page. We encourage you to review this page periodically to stay informed about how we protect your privacy.
If we make a material change that affects how your data is handled (which, given our current architecture, is unlikely), we will make reasonable efforts to notify you through a visible notice on our website.
Your continued use of the Service after any changes constitutes your acceptance of the updated policy.
If you have any questions, concerns, or requests regarding this Privacy Policy or our data practices, please reach out directly. Every message is read and responded to personally.
