Privacy Policy

1. Scope

This Privacy Policy explains how Fuel Cost Calculator (“we,” “us,” or “our”) handles information when you visit fuel-cost-calculator.com, use our calculators, follow external links, or contact us. It does not govern third-party websites or services that publish their own privacy policies.

2. Calculator inputs

Calculator inputs are processed locally in your browser to produce a result. We do not receive or store the distances, fuel prices, vehicle efficiency figures, purchase prices, passenger counts, or other values you enter into the calculators.

Some calculators can create a shareable URL containing selected settings. Those settings become part of the URL on your device. We do not maintain a user account or database of saved calculations. You should review a generated URL before sharing it because anyone who receives the link may be able to see the calculator settings included in it.

3. Cloudflare Web Analytics

We use Cloudflare Web Analytics to understand aggregated website traffic and performance, such as whether a page was visited and how the website performs overall.

Cloudflare Web Analytics does not use analytics cookies or browser localStorage to track users, and it does not create individual visitor profiles through fingerprinting. We do not receive names, email addresses, account identifiers, or a history of an identifiable person's activity from this service. The information available to us is aggregated and is used to understand visits and improve website performance.

4. Cloudflare hosting and security

The website uses Cloudflare for hosting, content delivery, domain services, performance, and security. Like other internet infrastructure providers, Cloudflare may process technical request information as necessary to deliver the website, protect it from attacks, and maintain service reliability. This processing is performed by Cloudflare under its own privacy terms and is separate from the aggregated Web Analytics reports available to us.

5. Cookies and browser storage

We do not use analytics or advertising cookies. Cloudflare Web Analytics does not require cookies or localStorage for analytics.

A calculator may use browser storage only for a functional preference on your own device, such as remembering a selected unit system. This information remains in your browser and is not sent to us as a personal profile. You can remove locally stored preferences through your browser settings.

6. Information you send by email

If you contact us at [email protected], we receive your email address and any name, page URL, calculator values, attachments, or other information you choose to include. We use that information only to respond, investigate an issue, improve the website, maintain necessary records, or comply with legal obligations.

Please do not send passwords, payment-card details, government identification numbers, health records, or other highly sensitive information.

7. When information may be shared

We may use service providers for website hosting, domain services, security, and email. Information may also be disclosed when required by law, to respond to valid legal process, or to protect the website, our rights, or the safety of others. We do not sell personal information.

8. Retention

We do not maintain user accounts or a database of calculator inputs. Aggregated Cloudflare Web Analytics statistics are retained according to Cloudflare's service settings. Email correspondence may be retained for as long as reasonably necessary to respond, investigate reported problems, maintain records, resolve disputes, or meet legal obligations. Functional preferences stored in your browser remain there until they expire or you remove them.

9. Your privacy choices and rights

Because we do not maintain user profiles or stored calculator histories, we may have little or no personal information about a typical visitor. Depending on your location and applicable law, you may nevertheless have rights concerning personal information you have sent to us, including rights to request access, correction, deletion, restriction, or objection.

To make a privacy request, email [email protected]. We may need enough information to understand and verify the request.

10. Security

We use reasonable measures intended to protect the website and information sent to us. No internet transmission, email system, browser storage, or service provider can be guaranteed completely secure.

11. Third-party links

Pages may link to government resources, maps, fuel-economy information, charging services, or other third-party websites. Those sites may collect information independently and are governed by their own privacy policies.

12. Changes to this policy

We may update this policy if the website, service providers, legal requirements, or privacy practices change. The revised date will appear on this page.

13. Contact

Questions or privacy requests can be sent to [email protected].
