Privacy Policy

1. Information We Collect

Personal Information

ValueFocal does not collect, store, or process any personal information. We do not require user accounts, email addresses, names, or any identifying information to use our subscription calculators.

Usage Data

We do not collect or store any data about your subscription usage, viewing habits, or calculation results. All calculations are performed locally in your browser using JavaScript, and no data is transmitted to our servers.

Local Storage

ValueFocal uses local browser storage only for:

• Theme Preference: Your choice between light and dark mode is stored locally to remember your preference on future visits

This data never leaves your device and can be cleared by deleting your browser data.

2. How We Use Information

Since we collect no personal information, we cannot use your data for any purpose. Our website operates entirely through client-side JavaScript calculations.

What Happens When You Use Our Calculators

• You enter your subscription cost and usage data
• Calculations are performed instantly in your browser
• Results are displayed immediately
• No data is sent to our servers or stored anywhere
• When you refresh or leave the page, your input data is gone

3. Cookies and Tracking

ValueFocal does not use cookies, tracking pixels, analytics tools, or any form of user tracking. We do not use:

• Google Analytics or similar analytics services
• Advertising cookies or pixels
• Social media tracking
• Third-party tracking scripts
• Cross-site tracking

4. Sharing and Social Features

Share Functionality

Our calculators include a "Share" button that allows you to share your results. This feature:

• Uses your device's native sharing capabilities when available
• May copy text to your clipboard as a fallback
• Does not send any data to ValueFocal or third parties
• Only shares the information you explicitly choose to share

5. Third-Party Links

ValueFocal may contain links to external websites, including:

• Subscription service websites (Netflix, Spotify, etc.)
• Alternative service recommendations
• Free alternatives mentioned in our guides

We are not responsible for the privacy practices of these external websites. We recommend reviewing their privacy policies before providing any personal information.

6. Data Security

Since ValueFocal collects no personal data, traditional data security measures for stored information are not applicable. However, we ensure:

• All calculations happen locally in your browser
• Our website uses HTTPS encryption
• No data transmission occurs during normal usage
• No server-side data storage exists

7. Children's Privacy

ValueFocal does not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13 years of age. Since we collect no personal information from any users, this policy applies to all visitors regardless of age.

8. International Users and GDPR

ValueFocal complies with the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and other international privacy laws. Since we collect no personal data, most GDPR obligations do not apply. However, users have the right to:

• Access: No personal data is collected or stored
• Rectification: Not applicable as no data is stored
• Erasure: Clear your browser's local storage to remove theme preferences
• Portability: Not applicable as no data is collected
• Object: Not applicable as no processing occurs

9. Changes to This Privacy Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. Any changes will be posted on this page with an updated "Last updated" date. Since ValueFocal collects no personal information, changes typically relate to clarifications rather than new data collection practices.

10. Technical Information

How Our Calculators Work

For technical transparency, our subscription calculators operate as follows:

• JavaScript code runs entirely in your browser
• Subscription data is loaded from a static JSON file
• All calculations use simple mathematical operations
• No server-side processing or databases are involved
• Source code is visible and inspectable

External Resources

Our website loads minimal external resources:

• Fonts and icons from cdnjs.cloudflare.com (for styling only)
• No analytics, advertising, or tracking scripts

12. Legal Basis for Processing

Under GDPR, we do not process personal data, so no legal basis is required. The minimal local storage (theme preferences) is based on legitimate interests in providing a better user experience.
