1. Introduction
Welcome to Percentage of the Year (“we,” “our,” or “us”). We operate the website percentageoftheyear.com (the “Site”). We are committed to protecting your privacy and are transparent about our data practices. This Privacy Policy explains how we handle information when you use our services.
Important Note: Our service is designed to operate entirely within your browser. Most calculations and operations happen locally on your device.
2. Information We Collect
Information We Do NOT Collect
We do not collect, store, or transmit any personal information that can identify you. Specifically, we do not:
- Require user accounts or registration.
- Collect names, email addresses, phone numbers, or postal addresses.
- Store any data you enter into the calculators (e.g., numbers, dates).
- Use cookies for tracking purposes (see Section 5 for details).
Automatically Collected Information (Server Logs)
When you visit our Site, our web hosting provider may automatically collect standard technical information as part of their standard server logs. This is common practice for all websites and is necessary for the operation of the internet. This information may include:
- Your Internet Protocol (IP) address.
- Browser type and version.
- Operating system.
- Referring/exit pages.
- Date and time of your visit.
Please note: This data is collected by our hosting provider for security, performance, and analytical purposes. We do not have direct access to this data in a way that identifies you personally, nor do we attempt to combine it with any other data to identify you.
3. How We Use Your Information
Because we do not collect personal data, we do not use, share, or sell your personal information.
- Local Processing: The numbers, dates, and other inputs you provide in our calculators are processed exclusively on your own device (in your browser). They are never transmitted to our servers.
- Service Improvement: We may analyze aggregated, anonymized usage data (such as which pages are visited most often) to improve the Site. This analysis does not involve personal data.
4. Third-Party Services
We do not integrate with third-party services (such as Google Analytics, advertising networks, or social media plugins) that collect personal data.
- Hosting Provider: Our Site is hosted by a third-party provider. As described in Section 2, this provider may collect standard server logs. We recommend reviewing their privacy policy for details on their data retention practices.
- External Links: Our Site may contain links to other websites. This Privacy Policy applies only to our Site. We are not responsible for the privacy practices of other sites. We encourage you to read the privacy policies of any external sites you visit.
5. Cookies and Tracking Technologies
We do not use cookies, web beacons, or similar tracking technologies to collect personal information or to track your activity across other websites.
Your browser may store small files (cookies) for technical functionality required by the hosting platform. These are not set by us and do not contain personal information.
6. Data Security
Since no personal data is collected or transmitted to our servers, there are no data security risks associated with your personal information on our end.
The security of your local device is your responsibility. Please ensure your browser and operating system are kept up to date.
7. Children’s Privacy
Our Site is intended for a general audience. We do not knowingly collect any personal information from children under the age of 13. Because we do not collect any personal data, we do not have any data to delete regarding children. If you are a parent or guardian and have concerns, please contact us using the information below.
8. International Users
Our service is accessible worldwide. Since we do not collect personal data, there are no cross-border data transfer issues. Your use of the Site involves local processing only.
9. Changes to This Privacy Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes in our practices or for legal reasons. Any changes will be posted on this page with an updated “Last Updated” date. We encourage you to review this policy periodically.
