Cookie Policy
Transparency is key. Here is exactly what we track and why.
1. What Are Cookies?
Cookies are small text files that are placed on your computer or mobile device when you visit a website. They are widely used to make websites work more efficiently and to provide information to the owners of the site.
2. How We Use Cookies
At MeetCalc.com, we use cookies for two specific reasons:
- Functionality: To remember your preferences (like your custom currency symbol) so you don't have to re-enter it every time you visit.
- First-Party Analytics: To understand how visitors use our site without sharing data with third parties (using our self-hosted Hub).
3. Types of Cookies We Use
Strictly Necessary Cookies
These are essential for the website to function. Without them, features like the calculator's ability to "remember" your settings locally would not work.
First-Party Analytics (Better Everyone Hub)
We use a custom, privacy-first analytics system that minimizes data collection.
1. Anonymous Measurement (Default)
We use a privacy-first method to count website visits without identifying you. If you decline cookies, we do not store any information on your device. Instead, we send a stripped-down signal to our servers containing no personal identifiers. We do not track your screen resolution, and we cannot recognize you if you visit again tomorrow. This allows us to see basic traffic numbers while respecting your privacy.
2. Enhanced Analytics (Consented)
If you accept "Analytics Cookies," we assign your browser a unique identifier. This allows us to:
- Recognize you as a returning visitor.
- Optimize our website for your specific screen size and settings.
- Understand your journey through our website over time.
This data is processed on our UK-based servers and is never shared with third-party advertising networks.
4. Managing Cookies
You have the right to accept or reject cookies. You can modify your browser settings to decline cookies if you prefer, though this may prevent you from taking full advantage of the website.
5. Changes to This Policy
We may update our Cookie Policy from time to time. Any changes will be posted on this page.
