Types of Cookies We Use

Google AdSense

We display advertisements through Google AdSense, a service by Google LLC. Google uses cookies to serve ads based on your visits to this site and other websites across the Internet.

Google Analytics

We use Google Analytics to understand how visitors use our site (pages viewed, session duration, traffic sources). Data is processed in aggregate and anonymized where possible. You can opt out using the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on.

Your Cookie Choices

• Browser settings: block or delete cookies via your browser’s privacy settings (Chrome, Firefox, Safari).
• Ad personalization: opt out at Google Ads Settings or AdChoices (NAI/DAA).
• Google Analytics: use the opt-out browser add-on.

5. Google DART Cookie & Remarketing

The DART Cookie

Google uses the DART cookie to serve ads to visitors of RawCalculator.com based on their visits to this site and other websites on the Internet. The DART cookie is placed by Google’s DoubleClick ad-serving technology.

You may opt out of the use of the DART cookie by visiting the Google Ad and Content Network Privacy Policy and the Google Ads Settings page.

Remarketing

We may use Google’s remarketing features to advertise RawCalculator.com on other websites after you have visited ours. Google and third-party vendors may use cookies (including the DART cookie) to serve ads based on your prior visits to our site.

To opt out of interest-based ads from Google, visit Google Ads Settings. For broader opt-outs, visit the Network Advertising Initiative (NAI) opt-out page or DAA AdChoices.

Non-Personalized Ads

Where required by applicable law or at your request, we can configure Google AdSense to serve non-personalized ads (NPA) that are not based on your browsing history. Non-personalized ads still use cookies for frequency capping, aggregated ad reporting, and fraud detection. To request NPA, contact us or adjust your preferences at Google Ads Settings.

6. EU User Consent Policy

For visitors in the European Economic Area (EEA), United Kingdom, and Switzerland, we comply with Google’s EU User Consent Policy and the requirements of the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and the ePrivacy Directive.

• We obtain explicit consent before placing advertising or analytics cookies on your device.
• We use a Consent Management Platform (CMP) certified by Google to surface a consent banner on your first visit.
• You may withdraw or update your consent at any time via the “Cookie Settings” link provided on our site.
• Without your consent, only strictly necessary cookies are placed. Google will serve non-personalized ads in the absence of consent for advertising cookies.

7. Legal Bases for Processing (EEA/UK)

When the GDPR applies, we process your personal data on the following legal bases:

• Consent (Art. 6(1)(a)): for advertising cookies, analytics cookies, and personalized ads where legally required.
• Legitimate interests (Art. 6(1)(f)): operating and improving the site, fraud prevention, and aggregated performance measurement — where these interests are not overridden by your rights.
• Legal obligation (Art. 6(1)(c)): compliance with laws, regulations, and lawful governmental requests.

8. How We Share Information

• Advertising & analytics partners: Google AdSense, Google Analytics, and DoubleClick process data under their own privacy policies as independent data controllers. See Google’s Privacy Policy.
• Hosting & infrastructure providers: who process data strictly on our behalf under data processing agreements.
• Legal & safety: when required by law, court order, or to protect our rights and the safety of our users.
• Business transfers: in connection with a merger, acquisition, or sale of assets, your information may be transferred as part of that transaction.

9. Data Retention

We retain personal information only as long as necessary for the purposes described in this Policy, including operating the site, complying with legal obligations, resolving disputes, and enforcing our agreements.

• Server logs: typically retained for up to 90 days.
• Contact inquiries: retained for up to 2 years unless a longer period is required by law.
• Advertising & analytics cookies: governed by the retention periods set by Google and other providers. See Google’s cookie policy for details.

10. Security

We implement reasonable administrative, technical, and organizational safeguards to protect your information from unauthorized access, loss, misuse, or alteration. Our site is served over HTTPS to encrypt data in transit. However, no method of transmission or storage is 100% secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.

11. International Transfers

Our service providers and advertising partners — including Google — may process data in the United States and other countries outside your own. For EEA/UK transfers, we and our partners rely on appropriate safeguards such as EU Standard Contractual Clauses and Google’s Data Processing Terms.

12. Children’s Privacy

RawCalculator.com is a general-audience website and is not directed to children under 13 (or a higher age threshold where applicable). We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If you believe a child has submitted personal information to us, please contact us immediately and we will take steps to delete it.

In compliance with the Children’s Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA) and Google’s child-directed site policies, we do not serve personalized advertising to users identified as minors.

13. Your Privacy Rights

EEA / UK (GDPR)

Subject to applicable conditions and exceptions, you may have the right to: access, correct, delete, restrict, or object to the processing of your personal data; receive a portable copy of your data; and withdraw consent at any time without affecting the lawfulness of prior processing. To exercise these rights, contact us. You also have the right to lodge a complaint with your local data protection authority.

California (CCPA / CPRA)

California residents have the right to know what personal information we collect, request its deletion, correct inaccuracies, and opt out of “sharing” for targeted advertising purposes. We do not sell personal information. To exercise your rights, use the contact details below. Learn more at the California Attorney General’s CCPA page.

Other Regions

Other jurisdictions (Brazil, Canada, Australia, etc.) may grant additional rights. We will honor valid requests as required by applicable law.

14. Third-Party Links

RawCalculator.com may contain links to external websites and services we do not operate. This Privacy Policy does not apply to those sites. We encourage you to review the privacy policies of any third-party site before providing personal information. We are not responsible for the content or privacy practices of linked sites.

15. Do Not Track

Some browsers transmit “Do Not Track” (DNT) signals. Because there is no agreed industry standard for responding to DNT, our website does not change its behavior based on these signals. You can still use the opt-out tools described in Section 5 to limit interest-based advertising.

16. Contact Us

For questions, data requests, or complaints about this Privacy Policy or the handling of your personal information, please contact us:

• Email: [email protected]
• Website: rawcalculator.com

We aim to respond to all privacy-related requests within 30 days of receipt.

17. Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy periodically to reflect changes in our practices or applicable law. The “Last Updated” date at the top of this page will always reflect the most recent revision. For material changes, we may provide additional notice on the site. Continued use of RawCalculator.com after any update constitutes acceptance of the revised policy.
