Privacy Policy
Short version: Simplified Plot is a static calculator website. Calculator inputs and results are processed in your browser. We do not require accounts, and we do not run a server-side calculator database for the values you enter.
1. Who This Policy Covers
This Privacy Policy explains how Simplified Plot handles information when you visit pages on simplifiedplot.com, use a calculator, search for a calculator, switch language, change theme, copy results, or follow links from the site.
Simplified Plot is operated as a static website. Static means the calculator pages, scripts, styles, and data files are delivered to your browser, and the calculation logic runs on your device.
2. Calculator Inputs and Results
Calculator inputs, intermediate steps, and results are processed locally in your browser. We do not intentionally send those values to a Simplified Plot application server for calculation, storage, or profiling.
Your browser may keep ordinary local traces of your activity, such as page history, cached files, autofill suggestions, screenshots, downloads, copied text, or values left visible in an open tab. Those browser-side records are controlled by your device, browser, and browser settings.
3. Information We May Process
Information you enter on calculator pages
Values you type into calculator forms are used by the JavaScript on that page to produce results in your browser. We recommend that you do not enter confidential, personal, financial, medical, legal, or otherwise sensitive information into any calculator.
Preferences stored in your browser
The site may store small preference values in your browser's localStorage, including your selected theme and language preference. These values help the site remember your display choices. They stay on your device until you clear site data or your browser removes them.
Search activity
The calculator search feature loads a static calculator list and filters it in your browser. Search terms typed into the site search are intended to be handled locally in the page.
Copy buttons and clipboard
Some calculators include copy buttons. When you choose to copy a result, your browser may use its clipboard API to place that text on your clipboard. Simplified Plot does not read your clipboard.
Contact form submissions
The contact page may link to a Google Forms contact form. If you open or submit that form, Google may process technical information and the information you provide according to Google's own privacy practices. Simplified Plot may receive the submitted form responses so we can review and respond to your message.
Basic technical delivery information
Like most websites, the hosting provider, domain provider, content delivery network, security layer, or similar infrastructure may process basic technical data needed to deliver pages and protect the site. This may include IP address, requested URL, date and time, browser type, device type, referring page, and error or security events.
4. How We Use Information
- To load the website and calculator pages.
- To perform calculator operations in your browser.
- To remember theme and language preferences on your device.
- To help users find calculators through local site search.
- To maintain site reliability, security, and abuse prevention.
- To respond if you contact us about the site.
- To comply with legal obligations if they apply.
5. Cookies and Browser Storage
Simplified Plot does not intentionally require cookies for its core calculator features. The site does use browser localStorage for theme and language preferences.
You can clear localStorage and any other site data through your browser settings. Clearing site data may reset your theme, language, and other local browser preferences.
6. Sharing and Disclosure
We do not sell your personal information. We also do not rent your personal information or build user profiles from calculator inputs.
Information may be processed or disclosed only in limited situations:
- Service infrastructure: hosting, security, domain, and delivery providers may process technical logs needed to operate the static website.
- Your browser and device: information you enter, copy, cache, save, or keep in an open tab may remain on your device under your browser's controls.
- Legal and safety reasons: information may be disclosed if required by law, legal process, security needs, or to protect rights, safety, and site integrity.
- External links: if you follow a link to another website, that website is governed by its own privacy practices.
- Contact form provider: if you use the contact form, Google Forms may process the information needed to display, secure, and submit the form.
7. Data Retention
Calculator inputs and results are not intentionally stored by Simplified Plot. Browser preferences stored in localStorage remain on your device until you or your browser remove them.
Technical logs created by hosting or security infrastructure are retained according to the relevant provider settings and operational needs. If you contact us, we may keep your message long enough to review it, respond, and maintain reasonable records.
8. Security
We limit the personal information we intentionally collect because information we do not collect is easier to protect. When available, the site should be accessed over HTTPS. No website or browser-based tool can guarantee perfect security, so do not enter sensitive personal information into calculators.
9. Children
Simplified Plot is a general-audience calculator site. It is not directed to children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If you believe a child has provided personal information through a contact channel, please contact us so we can review and delete it where appropriate.
10. International Visitors
The site may be accessed from many countries. Because the site is static and hosted online, technical data needed to deliver pages may be processed in countries where hosting, network, or security providers operate.
11. Your Privacy Choices
- Calculator values: refresh the page, close the tab, or clear browser data to remove values from your local browser session.
- Theme and language preferences: clear site data in your browser to remove localStorage preferences.
- Browser controls: use private browsing, permission settings, cache controls, and clipboard controls provided by your browser.
- Access, deletion, correction, or objection requests: if you believe Simplified Plot has personal information about you through a contact message or technical record, use the contact method available on the site and describe your request.
12. California and Similar Privacy Rights
Some privacy laws give residents rights to know, access, correct, delete, or opt out of certain uses of personal information. Because Simplified Plot does not require accounts and does not intentionally store calculator inputs, there may be little or no personal information for us to access, correct, or delete beyond contact messages or technical logs.
We do not sell personal information. If a legally recognized privacy request applies to you, we will review it based on the information reasonably available to us and the law that applies.
13. Changes to This Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy when the site changes, when new features are added, or when legal or operational requirements change. The updated version will be posted on this page with a new last updated date.
14. Contact
