Privacy Policy

Effective date:
Last updated:

Calculator inputs normally stay in your browser tab. Visiting this website still involves technical data processing, and choosing to share a result or send an email can disclose information.

About this policy

This policy explains the current privacy practices of BuzCalculator, the calculator service at buzcalculator.com. For questions about this policy or your information, contact contact@buzcalculator.com.

Information you enter into calculators

Our calculators use the values you enter to generate results in your browser. The application does not send those values to BuzCalculator servers to perform calculations, and does not automatically save them in localStorage, sessionStorage or application cookies. The explicit One-Rep Max result-saving, Creatine loading-tracker and Caloric Deficit progress options are described below. Ordinary input edits do not update the page URL.

The Macro Nutrient Gram Calculator processes values such as age, sex coefficient, height, weight, activity and macro-goal selections locally in your browser. They are not intentionally sent to BuzCalculator for calculation or stored as a health profile. Its Copy summary and Share result actions export daily macro outputs only, without personal inputs or URL parameters, to the clipboard or destination you explicitly choose.

The Intermittent Fasting Window Calculator processes work-shift, sleep and meal-timing preferences locally. These values are not intentionally sent to BuzCalculator for calculation, automatically persisted or encoded into URLs. Copy schedule places generated schedule text on your clipboard only after you choose it; work and sleep input times are excluded, although generated meal times may still reveal aspects of your routine.

The Body Adiposity Index Calculator processes hip circumference, height and optional BMI comparison weight locally in your browser. Measurements and results are not intentionally sent to BuzCalculator for calculation or automatically placed in URLs or persistent browser storage. Copy result exports generated output text only after you choose it, without the measurement inputs.

The Maximum Heart Rate Zone Calculator processes age, resting heart rate, optional measured maximum heart rate and training-goal choices locally. These inputs and calculated zones are not intentionally sent to BuzCalculator for calculation, automatically persisted or encoded into URLs. Copy zones exports the method and generated result text only after you choose it. Derived outputs can reveal underlying inputs, so copied summaries are not anonymous.

The Water Intake Calculator processes weight, activity, sweat level, climate, humidity and bottle-size choices locally. Inputs and hydration estimates are not intentionally sent to BuzCalculator for calculation, automatically persisted or encoded into URLs. Copy result exports rounded result text only after you choose it, without a body-weight field; derived outputs may still suggest underlying inputs.

The TDEE Calculator processes age, sex coefficient selection, height, weight, activity, goal, target pace and optional body-weight and calorie calibration inputs locally in your browser. These values are not intentionally sent to BuzCalculator for calculation, automatically persisted or encoded into URLs. Copy result exports generated result text only after explicit action, without raw personal or calibration inputs. Derived results may still suggest underlying inputs.

The One-Rep Max Calculator keeps lifting inputs in tab memory and does not automatically save lifting data. If you explicitly select Save result locally, that action stores up to ten result records in this browser: exercise, estimated 1RM, unit preference, method and save time, without source weight, reps or reps-in-reserve values. Saved results are not intentionally sent to our servers. Use Delete or Clear saved lifts in the calculator to remove them. This browser storage is separate from privacy preferences and is not a cookie. Copy/share exports exercise, estimates and the source set only when you choose it; no lifting inputs are put into sharing URLs.

The Creatine Dosage Calculator stores a loading checklist only after you select Start my loading tracker. The key buzcalculator.creatine.loading.v1 contains a format version and seven completed-day flags, without weight, dose, scoop values, dates or identifiers. It is not sent to our servers and has no automatic expiry. Start can resume an existing checklist; Reset unchecks the days and Clear tracker deletes the record. This explicitly requested functional storage works after Reject all cookies and is separate from optional analytics or advertising. If storage is unavailable, the tracker works in tab memory. Others using the browser may see saved checklists. Copy/share exports modeled plan outputs only, with no raw weight, scoop or tracker state and no sharing URL.

The Caloric Deficit Timeline Planner saves weight progress only after Start tracking progress. The key buzcalculator.deficit.progress.v1 holds a format version, start date, starting and goal weights in kilograms, and up to 366 dated weight check-ins. It excludes calorie intake, maintenance calories, age, sex, medical details, notes and identifiers. Data is not sent to a server and has no automatic expiry. Delete check-in removes one entry; Clear all progress data deletes the record. Stop tracking stops the current tab view but leaves saved data for an explicit resume. Others using this browser can see it. This requested functional storage works after Reject all cookies; if unavailable, the tracker works in tab memory. Copy/share exports date, duration and modeled weekly rate, with starting and goal weights only when you select that option. It excludes calories and check-in history and creates no sharing URL.

Sharing is an exception. The Tire Size, Gas Mileage Cost, Inflation Spending Power and Emergency Fund Runway calculators can create links containing selected inputs when you choose Copy link or Share. Tire links contain the two tire sizes; gas-mileage links contain the main trip inputs, including distance, fuel efficiency, fuel price, trip frequency and currency. Inflation-spending-power links contain cash amount, inflation rate, years, currency and, when enabled, the interest rate. Emergency-fund-runway links contain savings, normal and lean monthly spending, emergency income, scenario, currency and, when enabled, reserved cash; exploratory what-if spending is excluded. Anyone with a link can read those values. Opening it sends the URL, including those values, to our hosting infrastructure, and it may appear in browser history, request records or the service used to share it.

Where available, Copy, Share and Print let you export results through your clipboard, your chosen sharing destination or your browser’s printing tools. Car Depreciation shares result text rather than an input link. These actions happen when you select them; the resulting copies are outside the calculator’s tab memory. Avoid sharing values you want to keep private.

Information processed when you visit

Your browser makes requests to load pages and supporting files. Hosting and security infrastructure may process your IP address, request time, requested URL and query string, HTTP method and headers, browser or user-agent information, connection and network details, response status and security-related request information.

This information helps deliver the site, diagnose failures and prevent abuse. It is separate from running a calculation in your browser. Do not put sensitive information into a URL or send it in an email unless it is needed for your request.

Cloudflare infrastructure

BuzCalculator uses Cloudflare for hosting and delivery, DNS and proxying, HTTPS/TLS, caching, performance and protection against abuse. Cloudflare processes technical request information to provide these services.

Infrastructure providers may process operational request logs for delivery, security and diagnostics, separately from optional Cloudflare Web Analytics. These logs can include technical request information such as request methods, requested URLs and response status. Optional-category choices do not disable this infrastructure processing.

Our responses include Cloudflare network-error reporting instructions, known as NEL and Report-To headers. Supporting browsers may send connection-failure reports to Cloudflare. This infrastructure reporting is separate from BuzCalculator behavioral advertising or application analytics.

See Cloudflare’s Privacy Policy (opens in a new tab), including its information about end users of customer websites, and Cloudflare’s network-error logging documentation (opens in a new tab).

Cookies and browser storage

The Anime & Manga Time Calculator saves only watch-list entries when you add, edit or remove them, under buzcalculator:anime-watch-list:v1. Entries include titles, episode counts, runtimes, skip settings and calculated times. Searches, unsaved anime drafts and manga inputs are not stored. Your watch list is saved only in this browser and is not sent to BuzCalculator. Clear saved watch list removes the key; normal resets leave it intact. The list has no automatic expiry, is not synced, and may be visible to others using this browser. This requested functional storage works independently of optional tracking preferences. If storage is unavailable, the list works in page memory.

The BuzCalculator application currently sets no application cookies and does not automatically save calculator inputs in localStorage or sessionStorage. The One-Rep Max result history, Creatine loading tracker, Caloric Deficit progress tracker and Anime & Manga watch list use functional local storage only at your explicit request. Your browser may cache website files as part of normal browsing; that is different from our application saving your calculator values.

Cloudflare security or traffic-management features may use provider cookies depending on the features and circumstances involved. We do not promise that every visit is free of infrastructure cookies. Cloudflare describes its service cookies here (opens in a new tab).

When you save privacy preferences, we store the categories you chose, a policy version and a save time in first-party localStorage under buzcalculator.privacy-preferences. It contains no calculator values or visitor identifier and is not sent to our server. It remains until you clear site data or replace the choice; it has no automatic expiry. This necessary preference storage is separate from optional tracking. See our Cookie Policy for details.

Analytics

Cloudflare Web Analytics is prepared but disabled: no site token is configured and no analytics beacon loads. If approved, it would measure page visits and browser performance, including page and referrer URLs and a per-page identifier. Cloudflare documents that its beacon does not use cookies or browser storage; requests still expose connection information to Cloudflare. We will review URL data, applicable consent rules and provider disclosures before activation. Existing saved choices do not authorize this new provider.

BuzCalculator currently uses no application analytics, including Google Analytics, and no marketing tracking pixels. Cloudflare’s operational and security processing described above still takes place.

Advertising

BuzCalculator currently runs no third-party advertising scripts or ad-network placements on this site. Google AdSense is not installed, and we do not currently serve personalized ads. Ordinary outbound affiliate shopping links, described below, are separate from these advertising technologies.

We may introduce advertising services, such as Google advertising products, in the future. Before doing so, we will update this policy to describe the actual providers, data collection, sharing and uses, and introduce consent controls where required. Advertising providers may use cookies, web beacons, IP addresses or other identifiers, depending on the services enabled and your choices.

Future Google publisher services

This section describes a possible future change, not Google advertising processing currently taking place on BuzCalculator. If we introduce Google publisher services, the updated policy will explain Google’s and other participating providers’ data uses, any advertising cookies or personalization, and the available privacy choices. We will link to the relevant provider information at that time.

A first-visit privacy notice lets you Accept all, Reject all or Manage preferences. Optional analytics, advertising and personalization are currently inactive; accepting does not install them. Reopen Cookie Preferences from the Cookies page to save or withdraw category choices. Necessary operation and preference storage cannot be disabled there. Material new purposes or vendor uses require updated disclosures and a consent-version review before activation; existing generic preferences are not permission for materially different processing. If storage is blocked, your choice applies in the current tab but may not survive a reload.

Information you send by email

If you email contact@buzcalculator.com, you voluntarily provide your email address and whatever information you include in your message or attachments. We may use that information to respond, investigate a reported problem, address a privacy request or protect the service where appropriate.

Email delivery and mailbox providers also process your correspondence. Send only the information needed to explain your request; you do not need to send personal financial details to use our calculators.

Our calculators and articles link to third-party sources. If you follow a link, the destination receives a web request and handles your information under its own privacy practices. Review that website’s policy before providing information there.

BuzCalculator participates in the Amazon Associates affiliate program. As an Amazon Associate I earn from qualifying purchases. Some outbound Amazon shopping links contain affiliate tracking identifiers, and BuzCalculator may earn a commission from qualifying purchases at no additional cost to you.

Affiliate links are ordinary outbound links, not optional advertising scripts or ad-network placements loaded on BuzCalculator. Following one takes you to Amazon, where Amazon’s own privacy and cookie practices apply and Amazon may use cookies or other technologies. BuzCalculator does not control Amazon’s separate processing, and rejecting optional technologies here does not control Amazon’s independent website.

Data retention

We do not maintain server-side saved calculator submissions. Ordinary calculator state is held in tab memory; explicitly saved One-Rep Max estimates, Creatine loading checklists and Caloric Deficit progress records and Anime & Manga watch lists remain in this browser until you delete them, clear site data or the browser removes them. Your browser may restore a page or form, and copies, shared links, printed results and messages you create can outlast the tab.

Correspondence may be kept for as long as needed to handle an inquiry, follow up on an issue, protect the service or meet applicable obligations. Retention depends on the purpose and circumstances; we do not specify a fixed period for every message.

Infrastructure and security records are handled under the relevant providers’ service settings, policies and obligations. BuzCalculator does not control every provider retention period. Contact us with questions about information associated with your visit or correspondence.

Security

We use HTTPS to protect website traffic in transit, browser security headers and Cloudflare infrastructure to help protect the service. These measures reduce risks but cannot guarantee absolute security. Use care when sending sensitive information or sharing results.

Children’s privacy

BuzCalculator is a general-purpose calculator service and is not intentionally designed to collect personal information from children. If you believe a child has sent us personal information that should be removed, contact us so we can review the situation and take appropriate action.

International users and privacy requests

Our infrastructure and email providers may process information in countries other than your own. Privacy rights and the rules that apply to a request differ by jurisdiction.

Depending on the law that applies, you may have rights concerning access, correction, deletion, restriction or objection to certain processing, or a complaint to a relevant authority. Contact contact@buzcalculator.com to ask about your information or make a request. We will consider the applicable requirements and may need information to verify and locate the records concerned.

Changes to this policy

We may update this policy when site functionality, service providers, analytics or advertising practices, or legal and policy requirements change. We will revise the Last updated date and provide any additional notice or consent controls required for the change.
