Cookie Policy

Last updated: March 25, 2026

We keep cookies simple because your privacy matters. Here's exactly what we use, why, and how you're in control.

🍪 What's a cookie? (Quick refresher)

A cookie is a tiny text file a website saves on your device to remember things like your preferences or login status. They're harmless — but you should always know what's being stored and why.

✅ Cookies we use (and why)

1. Essential cookies (always on)

These keep the site secure and functional. You can't turn these off without breaking core features.

Cookie	Purpose	Duration
csrf_token	Prevents cross-site request forgery attacks	Session
session_id	Keeps your form submissions secure	Session

2. Preference cookies (optional)

These remember choices you make to improve your experience.

Cookie	Purpose	Duration
theme_pref	Remembers if you prefer dark/light mode	1 year
unit_pref	Remembers metric/imperial unit preference	1 year

3. Analytics cookies (only if you consent)

We use privacy-first analytics (like Plausible or Fathom) that:

• Don't use persistent cookies by default
• Anonymize IP addresses immediately
• Don't track you across sites
• Don't build personal profiles

If we ever enable optional analytics cookies, we'll ask for your consent first via a lightweight banner.

❌ What we DON'T do with cookies

• 🚫 No advertising/tracking cookies (Google Ads, Facebook Pixel, etc.)
• 🚫 No third-party cookies that follow you around the web
• 🚫 No selling cookie data to data brokers
• 🚫 No using cookies to identify you personally without consent

🎛️ How to control cookies

In your browser

You can manage or delete cookies anytime via your browser settings:

• Chrome: Settings → Privacy & security → Cookies
• Firefox: Preferences → Privacy & Security → Cookies
• Safari: Preferences → Privacy → Manage Website Data
• Edge: Settings → Cookies and site permissions

⚠️ Note: Blocking essential cookies may break calculator functionality.

Via our consent banner (if enabled)

If we use optional analytics cookies, you'll see a simple banner on your first visit:

• ✅ "Accept" to enable privacy-friendly analytics
• ❌ "Decline" to keep only essential cookies
• ⚙️ "Preferences" to customize later

Your choice is saved in a minimal cookie so we don't ask again unnecessarily.
