Privacy policy
This Privacy Policy explains how BuildYard handles information when you use buildyardcalculators.com, its calculators, and the contact form.
Information we process
Calculator inputs. Calculator values are processed locally in your browser. BuildYard does not intentionally transmit or store the measurements, quantities, prices, or other values you enter into calculators.
Contact form information. If you contact us, we receive the name, email address, and message you submit so we can read and respond to your request.
Technical request data. Our hosting, security, and email providers may process standard technical information needed to deliver and protect the site, such as IP address, request time, requested URL, browser or device information, and server logs.
How we use information
- to respond to questions, feedback, and calculator issue reports;
- to operate, secure, troubleshoot, and improve the website;
- to prevent abuse, spam, fraud, or security incidents;
- to comply with legal obligations and protect our rights where required.
Analytics and cookies
BuildYard uses Google Analytics 4 with Google Consent Mode. The Google tag is present on the site with analytics storage denied by default. Analytics cookies such as _ga and _ga_* are stored only after you choose to allow analytics. If analytics is denied, Google may receive limited cookieless measurement and consent signals instead of analytics cookies. You can reject analytics or change your choice later through Cookie settings. See our Cookie Policy.
Sharing and retention
We may share limited information with providers that help host, secure, or deliver email for the site, and when disclosure is required by law. Contact messages are kept only as long as reasonably necessary to respond, maintain appropriate records, resolve disputes, prevent abuse, or meet legal obligations.
Your privacy rights
Depending on where you live and which laws apply, you may have rights to request access, correction, deletion, restriction, objection, portability, or other controls over personal information. To make a privacy request, email info@buildyardcalculators.com.
