Log Files
Like most websites, itsCDcalculator uses server log files. These logs may include IP addresses, browser type, Internet Service Provider (ISP), date and time stamps, referring pages, exit pages, and the number of clicks. This information is used to analyze trends, administer the website, improve performance, and enhance security. It is not linked to personally identifiable information.
3. How We Use Your Information
We use the information we collect to:

4. Calculator Data
This section covers how we handle the numbers you enter into our tools.
Calculator inputs are processed only to generate your results. Financial values you enter into our calculators, such as deposit amounts, interest rates, or terms, are not permanently stored on our servers unless we specifically state otherwise on that calculator’s page.
We do not sell or share calculator inputs with third parties. The financial figures you enter into our calculators remain under your control. We do not use them to create user profiles, make lending decisions, or provide personalized financial recommendations.
Our calculators are built as personal finance tools to help you plan, not to collect your financial details.
5. Cookies
We use cookies to support the functioning of our site. These fall into a few categories:
- Essential cookies, which allow the site and its calculators to work correctly
- Analytics cookies, which help us understand how visitors use the site
- Preference cookies, which remember settings like your preferred calculator inputs
You can control or disable cookies through your browser settings. Doing so may affect how some parts of the site function.
Some third-party services, such as Google Analytics, may also use cookies or similar technologies to collect anonymous usage information.
6. Google Analytics
We use Google Analytics to collect anonymous statistics about how visitors use our site, such as which pages are viewed and how long visitors stay. This data is aggregated and does not include personal financial records or the specific numbers you enter into our calculators.
You can learn more about how Google handles data through Google’s own privacy policy or opt out using the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on.
7. Third-Party Services
We work with a small number of third-party services to run and maintain our website:
- Google Analytics, for anonymous traffic statistics
- Cloudflare, for security and performance
- Our hosting provider, to keep the site online and accessible
- Google Search Console, to monitor site health and search performance
Each of these services has its own privacy policy governing how they handle data. We encourage you to review the privacy policies of these providers to understand how they collect and process information.
8. Data Retention
We keep personal information only for as long as necessary to provide our services, respond to inquiries, comply with legal obligations, or resolve disputes. Anonymous analytics data may be retained for longer periods to help us improve our website.
9. Data Security
We use SSL/TLS encryption, firewall protection, security monitoring, and other reasonable technical measures to help protect your information from unauthorized access, alteration, disclosure, or destruction. That said, no method of transmission or storage is completely risk-free.
10. Children’s Privacy
ItsCDcalculator is not directed at children under the age of 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If you believe a child has provided us with personal information, please contact us so we can remove it.

Our site may contain links to other websites. We are not responsible for the content or privacy practices of those sites. We encourage you to review the privacy policy of any external website you visit.
12. International Visitors
If you access our website from outside the country where our servers are located, your information may be transferred, processed, and stored in accordance with this Privacy Policy.
