Privacy policy

This policy explains, in plain language, what happens to your information when you use RoomCalcs.

What you type stays on your device

All calculators and the tile visualizer run entirely in your web browser. The measurements and choices you enter are not sent to us or to anyone else. If you use "Copy link", your numbers are placed in the link itself, so they are only shared if you choose to share the link. PDF and spreadsheet downloads are also created in your browser, not on a server.

Files you open stay on your device

The PDF, image and document tools (PDF to Word, merge or compress a PDF, remove a background, image to text and the others) open and process your files inside your browser. Your files are never uploaded to us or to anyone else, and they are gone when you close the page.

What a few tools download

To work in your browser, a few tools download a program or data the first time you use them — never your files: the background remover its AI model (from this site or Hugging Face), image to text its language data and the PDF tools a reading engine (from the jsDelivr CDN), the currency converter today's exchange rates (Frankfurter or the free currency-api), and the citation generator looks up the DOI or ISBN you type (Crossref, doi.org, Open Library). Those services see an ordinary web request from your browser, such as your IP address, like any site you visit.

What we store in your browser

We remember only three things, and only in your own browser's local storage: whether you prefer metric or imperial units, whether you chose a light or dark theme, and the calculations you add to My project (your shopping list). None of it is sent to us. You can remove the project list on the My project page, or clear everything at any time by clearing this site's data in your browser.

No accounts, no tracking cookies

There are no user accounts, no newsletter pop-ups, no advertising, and no tracking or analytics cookies on this site at the moment.

Hosting

The site is served by a hosting and content delivery provider. Like every web server, it necessarily processes basic technical information such as your IP address and browser type to deliver pages and protect the site from abuse. We do not use this information to identify you.

If this changes

If we ever add privacy-friendly visitor statistics or advertising, this page will be updated before that happens, and where the law requires it (for example in the EU, UK and Switzerland) you will be asked for consent first.
