Privacy Policy

Last updated: May 20, 2026

This Privacy Policy explains how stridecalc.site ("we," "us," or "our") collects, uses, and shares information when you use our website at https://stridecalc.site (the "Site"). Please take a moment to read it. By using the Site, you are agreeing to the practices described here.

1. What We Collect

Calculator inputs: Our conversion tools run entirely in your browser. The height, gender, and step counts you type into the calculator are never sent to our servers and are never stored anywhere. Once you close or refresh the page, those values are gone.

Automatically collected data: When you visit the Site, we and our third-party partners may collect certain technical information automatically. This can include your IP address, browser type and version, operating system, the page you came from, pages you visit on our Site, time spent on those pages, and general device information. This data is gathered through cookies, web beacons, and similar tracking tools.

2. Cookies and Tracking

We use a few different types of cookies on the Site:

  • Essential cookies: These are required for basic features to work, such as remembering your light or dark mode preference. You cannot opt out of these because the site would not function properly without them.
  • Analytics cookies: We use Google Analytics to understand how people use the Site. This tells us things like which pages get visited, how long people stay, and where traffic comes from. The data is anonymized and aggregated. You can opt out at any time using the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on.
  • Advertising cookies: We participate in Google AdSense. Google uses cookies, including the DoubleClick cookie, to serve ads based on your previous visits to this and other websites. You can adjust your ad preferences at Google Ads Settings or opt out of interest-based advertising at aboutads.info.

You can control or disable cookies through your browser settings. Keep in mind that doing so may affect how parts of the Site behave.

3. Google AdSense and Advertising

We use Google AdSense to display advertisements on the Site. Google, as a third-party vendor, may use cookies to serve ads based on your visit to our Site and other sites on the internet. Third-party advertising partners may also use cookies, pixels, and similar technologies to measure ad performance and personalize what you see.

Those third parties operate under their own privacy policies, not ours. For more on how Google handles data collected through our Site, visit policies.google.com/technologies/partner-sites.

4. How We Use Information

We use the information we collect to run and improve the Site, understand how people use it, display relevant ads, and meet our legal obligations. We do not sell personal data to third parties.

5. Your Rights Under GDPR

If you are located in the European Economic Area or the United Kingdom, you have rights under the GDPR and UK GDPR. These include the right to access, correct, or delete personal data we hold about you; the right to object to or restrict certain types of processing; and the right to data portability. Our legal basis for analytics and advertising data is your consent, which you can withdraw at any time. To exercise your rights, please contact us using the address on our Contact page.

6. Your Rights Under CCPA

If you are a California resident, the CCPA gives you specific rights:

  • Right to Know: You can request details about the personal information we collect, use, and share.
  • Right to Delete: You can ask us to delete personal information we have collected from you.
  • Right to Opt-Out of Sale: We do not sell your personal information. If that changes, we will update this policy and add an opt-out option.
  • Right to Non-Discrimination: We will not treat you differently for exercising any of your CCPA rights.

To make a CCPA request, contact us through our Contact page. We will respond within 45 days.

7. Children's Privacy

This Site is not intended for children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from anyone under 13. If you believe we have received information from a child under that age, please contact us and we will delete it promptly.

8. Data Retention

We keep analytics data only as long as needed to understand how the Site is being used, or as required by law. Calculator inputs are never retained at all since they never leave your browser.

9. Third-Party Links

The Site may link to external websites for reference. We have no control over those sites and are not responsible for their content or privacy practices.

10. Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. Any changes will be posted on this page with a new revision date. Continued use of the Site after changes are posted means you accept the updated policy.
