Privacy Policy

1. Information We Collect

NerdyTools.com is a free tool and calculator website. We do not require registration or login, and we do not collect personal information directly. However, the following types of data may be collected automatically when you visit our site:

• Usage Data: Pages visited, time spent on pages, browser type, device type, screen resolution, and referring URLs — collected via analytics tools to help us understand how visitors use the site and which tools are most popular.
• Cookies: Small text files stored on your device by our advertising and analytics partners. See our Cookie Policy for full details on what cookies we use and how to manage them.
• IP Address: Your approximate location may be inferred from your IP address by our analytics and advertising partners for aggregate geographic reporting and ad targeting. We do not store or process IP addresses ourselves.

2. What We Do NOT Collect

To be clear about what we do not do:

• We do not collect your name, email address, phone number, or any personal contact information.
• We do not store any data you enter into our calculators or tools. All calculations happen in your browser and your inputs never leave your device.
• We do not require accounts, logins, or registrations of any kind.
• We do not sell, rent, or share any user data with third parties for their own marketing purposes.

3. How We Use Your Information

We use collected data for the following purposes:

• To analyse website traffic and understand which tools and pages are most useful to visitors.
• To display relevant advertisements through Google AdSense, which supports the site financially and keeps all tools free.
• To improve our tools, fix bugs, and develop new calculators based on usage patterns.
• To monitor site performance and ensure pages load quickly and reliably.

4. Google AdSense and Advertising

NerdyTools.com uses Google AdSense to display advertisements. Google AdSense uses cookies and similar technologies to serve ads based on your prior visits to this site and other websites. Google’s use of advertising cookies enables it and its partners to serve ads based on your browsing history.

You can opt out of personalised advertising by visiting Google’s Ads Settings. You can also opt out of third-party vendor cookies for advertising at www.aboutads.info/choices.

5. Analytics

We use standard web analytics tools to understand site traffic, visitor behaviour, and tool usage. These tools collect anonymous, aggregated data such as page views, session duration, bounce rate, and geographic region. This data helps us make informed decisions about which tools to improve or build next. Analytics data is not linked to any personally identifiable information.

6. Cookies

Cookies are small text files placed on your device when you visit a website. NerdyTools.com uses cookies for advertising (through Google AdSense) and analytics. We do not use cookies to identify you personally or to track you across unrelated websites.

You can manage or delete cookies through your browser settings at any time. Disabling cookies may affect the display of advertisements but will not impact the functionality of our calculators and tools. For full details, see our Cookie Policy.

7. Third-Party Services

We use the following third-party services, each of which has its own privacy policy:

• Google AdSense — for displaying advertisements. Google Privacy Policy
• Google Analytics — for understanding site traffic. Google Analytics Privacy
• Hostinger — our web hosting provider. Hostinger Privacy Policy

We do not control the privacy practices of these third parties and encourage you to review their policies.

8. Data Retention

We do not retain any personal data because we do not collect any. Analytics data is retained in aggregated, anonymous form for as long as it is useful for improving the site. Cookies expire according to the timeframes set by Google and other third-party providers — see our Cookie Policy for specific durations.

9. Children’s Privacy

NerdyTools.com does not knowingly collect any personal information from children under the age of 13 (or the applicable age in your jurisdiction). Our site does not require registration, and we do not collect names, email addresses, or any identifiable information from any user, including children. If you believe a child has somehow provided us with personal information, please contact us and we will take steps to delete it.

10. Your Rights

Depending on your jurisdiction, you may have the right to:

• Access, correct, or delete any personal data we hold about you (though we collect none).
• Opt out of personalised advertising through Google’s Ads Settings.
• Manage or delete cookies through your browser settings.
• Request information about what data, if any, is associated with your visit.

Since we do not collect personal information, most of these rights are satisfied by default. If you have any questions or requests, please contact us.

11. Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes in our practices, technology, or legal requirements. When we do, we will update the “Last Updated” date at the top of this page.
