Privacy Policy

Last updated: June 2026

1. Introduction

BicepCalc ("we," "our," or "us") operates the bicepcalc.com website. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, disclose, and safeguard your information when you visit our website.

2. Information We Collect

2.1 Information You Provide

Calculator Inputs: When you use our calculators, all computations happen locally in your browser. We do not store, transmit, or retain the numbers you enter. These calculations are performed entirely on your device and are never sent to our servers.

2.2 Automatically Collected Information

When you visit BicepCalc, certain information is automatically collected:

  • IP Address: Collected by Cloudflare (our CDN provider).
  • Browser & Device: Device type, operating system, browser.
  • Pages Visited: Which calculators you use and time spent.
  • Referrer: How you found our site.

3. Third-Party Services

3.1 Cloudflare

Our site is served through Cloudflare for security and performance. Cloudflare may collect and process IP addresses and request metadata. See Cloudflare's Privacy Policy.

3.2 Google AdSense

We display advertisements through Google AdSense. Google may use cookies and other identifiers to serve personalized ads and to measure ad effectiveness. For users in the EEA, UK, and Switzerland, ad personalization is governed by a consent prompt. See Google's Privacy Policy and How Google Uses Data.

3.3 Google Analytics

We use Google Analytics 4 (GA4) to understand how visitors use the site — for example, which pages and calculators are viewed, how visitors arrive, approximate location (derived from IP), and general device and browser information. This helps us improve the tools and content.

GA4 is configured with Google Consent Mode. By default, analytics storage is set to "denied," so no analytics cookies are placed and no identifiers are stored on your device. If you accept cookies via our consent banner, GA4 sets analytics cookies (such as _ga and _ga_<id>) to measure your visit. If you decline, GA4 operates in a cookieless mode providing only aggregated, non-identifying measurement. GA4 does not store IP addresses. You can review or change your choice at any time via the "Cookie Settings" link in the footer. See Google's Privacy Policy, How Google Uses Data, and Google's Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on.

3.4 Site Assets

Our styling and calculator code are served directly from our own domain (no third-party styling CDN). This keeps your browsing footprint limited to the providers named above.

4. Cookies and Tracking

Google Analytics Cookies: When you consent, GA4 may set cookies such as _ga and _ga_<id> to distinguish visitors and sessions. These are not set unless you accept.

Google AdSense Cookies: AdSense may use cookies to serve ads based on prior visits and to measure performance.

Cloudflare Cookies: Cloudflare may set cookies for security purposes.

How to Control Cookies: You can manage cookie preferences in your browser settings or opt out of personalized ads via Google Ad Settings. Where a consent prompt is shown, you can change your choices at any time using the "Cookie Settings" link in the footer.

5. How We Use Information

  • Deliver and improve our website.
  • Understand site usage and improve our content and calculators (analytics).
  • Display relevant ads through Google AdSense.
  • Monitor site performance and security.
  • Detect and prevent abuse or fraud.

6. Your Rights (GDPR)

If you are an EU/EEA resident, you have the following rights under the GDPR:

  • Access: Request what personal data we hold about you.
  • Correction: Request correction of inaccurate data.
  • Erasure: Request deletion of your data, where applicable.
  • Object: Object to processing for marketing purposes.
  • Portability: Request your data in a portable format.

To exercise these rights, contact us at [email protected].

7. Data Retention

We do not retain calculator inputs. Analytics data is retained by Google according to the retention period configured in our Google Analytics settings, and server logs and ad data are retained by Cloudflare and Google per their respective policies. You can contact us to request data deletion.

8. Security

Data is transmitted securely via HTTPS/TLS with Cloudflare Full (Strict) mode. However, no method of transmission over the internet is 100% secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.

9. Children's Privacy

BicepCalc is not directed toward children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If we become aware of such collection, we will delete it.

10. Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy periodically and will revise the "Last updated" date above. Continued use of the site constitutes acceptance of changes.
