Privacy Policy
We believe in privacy-conscious web design. We do not require accounts, do not sell user profiles, and prioritize self-hosted assets.
Introduction
This Privacy Policy describes how VolumeCalculator.dev ("we", "us", or "our") collects, uses, and safeguards information when you visit our website (https://volumecalculator.dev).
No User Accounts or Passwords
VolumeCalculator.dev is a completely open, tool-first platform. We do not offer user accounts, logins, or social profile integration. You do not need to register, provide an email address, or store payment information to use any of our calculators or access our documentation.
Calculations Run in Your Browser
All numerical inputs, dimensions, unit selections, and calculations are processed directly inside your browser using client-side JavaScript. Your measurements (e.g. pool dimensions, box sizes, gravel weights) are never transmitted to our servers or stored in any database.
Hosting & Network Analytics (Cloudflare)
Our website is hosted on Cloudflare Pages. Cloudflare serves as our reverse proxy and edge content delivery network (CDN). In order to maintain system security, defend against distributed denial-of-service (DDoS) attacks, and optimize asset delivery, Cloudflare processes basic server log data, such as IP addresses, browser user-agent strings, and request timestamps.
We use Cloudflare Web Analytics, a privacy-first measurement tool that does not use cookies, does not collect personal data, and does not track users across different websites.
Self-Hosted Fonts (No External CDN Requests)
Unlike many websites that load fonts dynamically from Google Fonts or other third-party servers, all typography on VolumeCalculator.dev (Source Serif 4 and Hanken Grotesk) is self-hosted directly on our domain. When you load our pages, your browser makes zero network requests to Google Fonts or external CDN providers for typography.
Advertising (Google AdSense)
VolumeCalculator.dev is supported by advertising revenue provided by Google AdSense and its certified advertising partners. These third-party vendors use cookies to serve ads based on your prior visits to this website or other sites on the Internet:
- Google's use of advertising cookies enables it and its partners to serve ads based on your visit to our site and/or other sites on the Internet.
- Users may opt out of personalized advertising by visiting Google Ads Settings.
- Alternatively, you can opt out of a third-party vendor's use of cookies for personalized advertising by visiting AboutAds.info.
Where applicable by regional regulations (such as the European Economic Area, the United Kingdom, or US state privacy laws), an interactive consent banner adhering to the Interactive Advertising Bureau (IAB) Transparency and Consent Framework is presented, allowing you to choose between personalized ads, non-personalized ads, or refusing non-essential advertising cookies.
Contact Form Submissions (Web3Forms)
If you choose to submit an inquiry through our Contact form, the information you provide (your name, email address, and message text) is securely transmitted via the Web3Forms API to our team's support inbox. This information is used exclusively to respond to your inquiry. We do not add your email address to marketing mailing lists or share it with third parties.
Planning Purposes Disclaimer
All calculation outputs, formulas, and estimates are provided for general educational and preliminary planning purposes only. Please verify critical engineering or construction requirements with licensed professionals.
