Privacy Policy

Last updated: August 6, 2026

This policy explains what information Scale-Calculator.com processes, why it is processed, and the choices available to visitors.

Information we process

  • Server logs: IP address, request URL, date and time, browser user agent, and technical error information. Logs are used for security, abuse prevention and reliability.
  • Contact messages: name, email address, message, IP address and submission time when you use the contact form.
  • Calculator preferences: if you enable “Remember my last calculation,” calculator values are stored locally in your browser. They are not sent to our server.

Cookies and local storage

A session cookie is used for security features such as the contact-form token and security code. The calculator can use browser local storage when you choose to remember a calculation.

On pages that display advertising, Google AdSense loads automatically. Google and its partners may use cookies or local storage for ad delivery, measurement and fraud prevention, subject to Google's policies and regional settings. You can control cookies through your browser and Google advertising settings.

Third-party services

  • Google AdSense may process device and advertising information and may use cookies or local storage. See the Google advertising policy.
  • YouTube videos use the privacy-enhanced youtube-nocookie.com domain. Playback may still create a connection to YouTube.
  • Cloudflare may process network and security information to deliver and protect the site.

Legal bases and retention

Security and technical logs are processed for our legitimate interests in protecting and maintaining the service. Contact information is processed to respond to your request. Advertising processing may rely on consent or another applicable legal basis depending on the visitor's region and Google's configured controls.

Application logs are automatically rotated and are intended to be retained for no more than 30 days. Contact messages are retained only as long as reasonably necessary to answer the request and meet legal obligations.

Your choices and rights

Depending on your location, you may request access, correction, deletion, restriction or a copy of your personal information, and you may object to or withdraw consent for certain processing. You may also complain to your local data-protection authority.

This service is not directed to children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13.
