Privacy Policy
Last updated: February 2026
Your privacy matters to us. This Privacy Policy explains what information Grow a Garden Calculator ("we", "our", or "the site") collects, how it is used, and what choices you have. By using this site you agree to the practices described below.
1. Information We Collect
We do not require you to create an account or submit any personal information to use our calculators. The only personal data we may receive is what you voluntarily provide through our contact form (see Section 5).
Like most websites, our hosting provider and analytics tools may automatically log standard technical information such as your IP address, browser type, and the pages you visit. This data is aggregated and used solely for security and performance monitoring.
2. Cookies and Third-Party Advertising (Google AdSense)
This site displays advertisements served by Google AdSense. Google, as a third-party vendor, uses cookies — including the DoubleClick cookie — to serve ads based on a user's prior visits to this site and other sites on the internet.
These cookies allow Google and its partners to serve ads to visitors based on their visit to growagardencalculator.com and/or other sites on the internet. Users may opt out of personalised advertising by visiting Google's Ads Settings. Alternatively, you can opt out of third-party vendor cookies for personalised advertising by visiting aboutads.info.
For more information on how Google uses data when you use partner sites or apps, please visit policies.google.com/technologies/partner-sites.
3. LocalStorage (Calculator Preferences)
To improve your experience our calculators use your browser's LocalStorage feature to remember your last-used inputs (such as selected plants, pet ages, and egg hatch settings). This data is saved entirely on your own device and is never transmitted to our servers or any third party.
You can clear your saved preferences at any time by clearing your browser's site data for this domain, or through your browser's developer tools.
4. Analytics
We may use Google Analytics to understand how visitors interact with our site in aggregate. Google Analytics collects cookie-based, anonymised data. You can learn more or opt out using the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on.
5. Contact Form (Formspree)
Our contact form is powered by Formspree, a third-party form submission service. When you submit a message through the contact form, the data you enter (such as your name, email address, and message) is transmitted to and stored by Formspree in order to deliver it to us. Formspree's privacy practices are governed by the Formspree Privacy Policy. We use the information you send solely to respond to your enquiry.
6. Children's Privacy
This site is not directed at children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If you believe a child has provided personal information through our contact form, please contact us and we will delete it promptly.
7. Changes to This Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. Changes will be reflected by updating the "Last updated" date at the top of this page. Continued use of the site after any changes constitutes acceptance of the revised policy.
