KalkWise ("we", "us", or "our") operates kalkwise.com (the "Site"). This Privacy Policy explains what information we collect, how we use it, and your rights with respect to that information.
1. Information we collect
Analytics data only. KalkWise uses Google Analytics 4 (GA4) to understand how visitors use the Site. GA4 automatically collects standard usage information including:
- Pages visited and time spent on each page
- Session counts and approximate geographic region (country/city level)
- Browser type, device type, and operating system

- Events such as button clicks and calculator interactions
No personally identifiable information (PII). KalkWise does not collect your name, email address, IP address, or any information that directly identifies you.
No user accounts. KalkWise does not offer user accounts, login, or registration. You do not submit any personal information to use the Site.
No form submissions stored. Calculator inputs you enter (loan amounts, interest rates, etc.) are processed entirely in your browser and are never sent to or stored on our servers.
2. Cookies
KalkWise uses cookies only for analytics purposes, placed by Google Analytics. These cookies do not contain personally identifiable information. The cookies used by GA4 include:

We do not use advertising cookies, tracking pixels, or any other cookies beyond those set by Google Analytics. We do not use cookies for re-targeting or behavioral advertising.
You can disable cookies in your browser settings or install a browser extension such as the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on to prevent GA4 from collecting data about your visits.
3. How we use information
We use analytics data solely to:
- Understand which calculators are most useful to visitors
- Identify and fix technical issues on the Site
- Improve the overall quality and performance of the Site
We do not use analytics data to build user profiles or for targeted advertising.
4. Third-party services

Google AdSense. The Site displays advertisements served by Google AdSense. Google may use cookies to serve ads based on your prior visits to this or other websites. You can opt out of personalized advertising by visiting Google's Ads Settings.
No other third-party services are used on this Site. We do not integrate with social media platforms, advertising networks, or data brokers beyond those listed above.
