Privacy Policy
Last updated
The short version: the numbers you type into a calculator never leave your browser. We use Google Analytics to count visits and Google AdSense to show ads, and both only use cookies for tracking and personalization if you allow it.
Who this policy covers
This policy applies to clearpathcalc.com ("ClearPathCalc", "we", "us"). If you have a question about it, email [email protected].
What you type into the calculators
Every calculator runs entirely in your web browser. Balances, income, tax details, body measurements and anything else you enter are processed on your own device. They are not sent to our servers, not stored by us, and not shared with anyone. Closing or reloading the page clears them. If you use a download or export button, the file is created in your browser and saved directly to your device.
Information collected automatically
Google Analytics
We use Google Analytics 4 to understand which pages are useful and where visitors come from. It can record the pages you view, the site that referred you, your approximate location (derived from your IP address), your device and browser type, and how you interact with pages. We use this only in aggregate. We do not use it to identify you.
Analytics cookies are set only if you choose "Accept All" in the cookie banner. If you choose "Essential Only", or make no choice, Google's tags run in a restricted mode that does not set analytics cookies (Google Consent Mode). In that mode Google may still receive basic, cookieless signals such as the page viewed and the time of the visit. Learn more in how Google uses information from sites that use its services.
Google AdSense
This site is supported by advertising served by Google AdSense. Third-party vendors, including Google, use cookies to serve ads based on your prior visits to this website or other websites. Google's use of advertising cookies enables it and its partners to serve ads to you based on your visits to this site and/or other sites on the Internet.
If you do not accept cookies in the banner, Google serves non-personalized ads, which are based on the content of the page rather than your browsing history. Non-personalized ads may still use cookies or similar technology for frequency capping, aggregated reporting and to combat fraud and abuse.
You can opt out of personalized advertising at any time in Google's Ads Settings. You can also opt out of some third-party vendors' use of cookies for personalized advertising at aboutads.info.
Server logs
Like almost every website, our hosting provider automatically keeps standard request logs (IP address, browser type, page requested, referring page and time) for security and to keep the site running. We do not combine these logs with any other information.
Cookies and local storage we use
| Name | Set by | Purpose |
|---|---|---|
| cpc-consent | ClearPathCalc (local storage) | Remembers your cookie choice so the banner does not reappear. Contains only "granted" or "denied". |
| _ga, _ga_* | Google Analytics | Distinguishes visits for aggregate statistics. Set only after you accept. |
| __gads, __gpi, IDE and similar | Google AdSense / DoubleClick | Ad delivery, frequency capping, measurement and, if you accept, personalization. |
Your choices
- Change your cookie choice at any time using "Cookie settings" at the bottom of every page.

If you email us
If you contact us, we receive your email address and whatever you write. We use it only to reply and to fix any problem you report, and we delete correspondence once it is no longer needed. We never sell or share it.
Your rights
Depending on where you live, including the European Economic Area, the United Kingdom and California, you may have the right to access, correct or delete personal information about you, to object to or restrict its use, and to opt out of the sale or sharing of personal information for targeted advertising. We do not sell personal information.
Because we do not keep calculator inputs or user accounts, the only personal information we hold directly is email you send us. Email [email protected] to make a request. For data held by Google, use Google's privacy controls or the choices above.
International visitors
ClearPathCalc is operated from the United States. Google may process analytics and advertising data in the United States and other countries under its own privacy policy and safeguards.
Children
This site is intended for adults and is not directed to children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children.
Changes to this policy
If we change how the site handles data, we will update this page and the date at the top. Significant changes are also noted in the site update log.
