This Privacy Policy explains how Pool Cost Planner handles basic website information, calculator inputs, analytics, cookies, and contact messages.
Information we collect
Pool Cost Planner may receive basic technical information such as pages visited, browser type, device type, approximate location inferred from IP address, referring pages, and timestamps through standard analytics tools.
Calculator inputs
Calculator inputs are used to show planning estimates in your browser. The site does not require an account and does not ask for your name, address, payment information, or pool service contract details to use the calculators.
Analytics
The site uses Google Analytics through the Google tag installed on the website. Google Analytics may process device, usage, referral, and approximate location information to help us understand traffic, identify technical issues, and improve calculator content.
Advertising
The site does not currently load Google AdSense advertising scripts. It may display advertising in the future. If advertising is added, partners may use cookies or similar technologies to measure ad performance or personalize ads under their own policies.
Cookies
Analytics tools may use cookies, device identifiers, or similar technologies. Future advertising tools may also use them. You can block or delete cookies through browser settings, although some measurement features may then be limited.
Service providers
Analytics, hosting, security, and email service providers may process limited information on our behalf. Their handling of information is governed by their own terms and privacy practices.

Your choices
You can manage cookies in your browser, use browser privacy controls, avoid sending personal information by email, or contact us with a privacy question. Browser and analytics opt-out tools may also be available from their providers.
