PetFeedCalculator.com ("we," "our," or "us") respects your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains what information we collect, how we use it, and your rights regarding that information. By using this website, you agree to the terms described below.
1. Information We Collect
1.1 Information You Provide
The pet food calculator runs entirely in your browser. The weight, life stage, and other pet details you enter into the calculator are not transmitted to our servers and are not stored or associated with you in any way. All calculations happen locally on your device.
1.2 Automatically Collected Information
When you visit our website, we may automatically collect:
- Browser type and version
- Device type (desktop, mobile, tablet)
- Operating system
- Pages viewed and time spent on each page
- Referring URL (how you found us)
- General geographic location (country/region, not precise location)
- IP address (anonymized where possible)
This data is collected through cookies and analytics tools (see Section 3).
2. How We Use Your Information
We use the information described above to:
- Understand how visitors use the site and improve its functionality
- Diagnose technical problems
- Measure the reach and performance of our content
- Serve relevant advertising through Google AdSense
- Comply with legal obligations
We do not sell your personal information to third parties.
3. Cookies and Analytics
3.1 Google Analytics
We use Google Analytics to understand aggregate site usage patterns. If you are located in the EU, EEA,
UK, or Switzerland, Google Analytics is denied by default and only begins collecting data after you
click Accept on the cookie banner. Outside those regions, analytics cookies are granted
by default and may be set automatically, but you can decline at any time. If enabled, Google Analytics
may set cookies (such as _ga and _ga_*) to collect usage data. This data is
anonymized and governed by Google's
Privacy Policy. You can withdraw consent at any time using the
Manage Cookie Preferences link below, or by using the
Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on.
3.2 Consent Preference Storage
We store your cookie consent choice (accepted or declined) in your browser's localStorage
under the key cookieConsent, along with the date it was recorded. This is not a cookie and
contains no personal information — it exists solely to avoid showing you the consent banner on every
visit. Your choice is only ever recorded when you click Accept or Decline
on the banner; we do not treat scrolling, browsing, or any other interaction with the site as consent.
Your stored choice is remembered for up to 13 months, after which you'll be asked again.
You can change your choice at any time by clicking Manage Cookie Preferences, which reopens the banner so you can accept or decline again.
4. Third-Party Links
Our site may contain links to external websites. We are not responsible for the privacy practices of those sites and encourage you to review their privacy policies independently.
5. Children's Privacy
This website is not directed at children under the age of 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If you believe a child has provided us with personal information, please contact us and we will delete it promptly.
6. Data Security
We implement reasonable technical and organizational measures to protect the information we hold. However, no transmission over the internet is 100% secure. Since the calculator does not transmit pet data to our servers, the primary security concern is limited to standard browsing data.
7. Your Rights
Depending on your location, you may have rights under applicable privacy laws (including GDPR for EU residents and CCPA for California residents) to:
- Access the personal data we hold about you
- Request correction of inaccurate data
- Request deletion of your data
- Object to or restrict our processing of your data
- Lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority
To exercise any of these rights, contact us at privacy@petfeedcalculator.com.
8. California Privacy Rights (CCPA/CPRA)
If you are a California resident, the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA), as amended by the California Privacy Rights Act (CPRA), gives you specific rights over your personal information.
8.1 Categories We Collect
In the preceding 12 months we have collected the categories of information described in Section 1 (identifiers such as IP address, internet activity such as pages viewed, and approximate geographic location). We do not sell or share personal information.
8.2 Right to Know, Delete, and Correct
You may request that we disclose, delete, or correct the personal information we hold about you by contacting privacy@petfeedcalculator.com. Because the calculator itself never transmits or stores your pet's data on our servers, most requests will concern browsing and analytics data only.
8.3 Non-Discrimination
We will not deny you service, charge you a different price, or provide a different level of quality because you exercised any of these rights.
9. Changes to This Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. The "Last updated" date at the top of this page will reflect any changes. Continued use of the site after an update constitutes your acceptance of the revised policy.
