Privacy Policy
StudentSaveCalc ("we," "us") respects your privacy. This policy explains, in plain terms, what information is involved when you use this site, how cookies and advertising work, and the choices you have. It applies to studentsavecalc.com. StudentSaveCalc is operated by Velox Digital.
What we collect
We do not ask you to create an account, and we do not request personal information such as your name or email to use the site. The numbers you enter into our calculators run entirely in your browser — they are used only to display your result on the page. We do not send those inputs to a server, and we do not store or save what you type; refresh the page and the figures are gone.
Like most websites, our hosting and analytics providers may automatically receive standard technical information your browser sends with every request — such as your IP address, browser type, device type, the page you requested, and a referring URL. This is used to keep the site secure and to understand which pages are useful.
Cookies and similar technologies
Cookies are small text files a site or its partners can place on your device. We use them for two main purposes: basic analytics (to see which guides and tools get used) and advertising (described below). You can block or delete cookies at any time in your browser settings; the site's calculators and guides will still work without them.
Advertising (Google AdSense)
We use Google AdSense to display ads, which is how this free site is funded. Google and its advertising partners use cookies and similar technologies to serve ads based on your prior visits to this and other websites.
- Third-party vendors, including Google, use cookies to serve ads based on a user's prior visits to this website or other websites.
- Google's use of advertising cookies enables it and its partners to serve ads to you based on your visit to our sites and/or other sites on the internet.
- You can opt out of personalized advertising by visiting Google Ad Settings.
- You can opt out of personalized advertising from many other vendors at aboutads.info/choices (Digital Advertising Alliance) and youronlinechoices.eu (EU).
Opting out of personalized ads does not remove ads — it means the ads you see are less tailored to you.
Analytics
We may use privacy-respecting analytics to measure traffic and understand which pages help readers. This tells us aggregate things like which guide is most read; it is not used to identify you personally.
Affiliate and partner links
Some outbound links on this site are affiliate links. When you click one, the destination site (for example Amazon) may set a cookie so that any resulting purchase or signup is credited to us, at no extra cost to you. As an Amazon Associate we earn from qualifying purchases. That activity is governed by the destination site's own privacy policy, not ours. We disclose affiliate relationships on the pages where they appear.
We do not sell your personal data
We do not sell your personal information, and we do not share it with third parties except the service providers (hosting, analytics, advertising) described above that we use to operate the site. Those providers process data under their own privacy policies.
Third-party links and content
This site links to and references third-party websites and tools. Once you leave studentsavecalc.com, this policy no longer applies. We are not responsible for the content or privacy practices of other sites, and a link is not an endorsement. Please review the privacy policy of any site you visit.
Children's privacy
This site is intended for a general audience of students and young adults and is not directed to children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If you believe a child has provided us information, contact us and we will delete it.
Your choices
You can control or delete cookies in your browser, opt out of personalized ads using the links above, and use private/incognito browsing. Because we do not collect accounts or store your calculator inputs, there is no profile on our side for us to export or delete.
Changes to this policy
We may update this policy as the site grows or as advertising and legal requirements change. The "last updated" date below reflects the current version; material changes will be reflected here.
