Privacy Policy
Toolkit Grid (“we”, “us”, “our”) operates toolkitgrid.com, a website offering free online calculators and articles. Toolkit Grid, based in Sweden and reachable at info@toolkitgrid.com, is the data controller for the processing described in this policy. This policy explains what information is collected, why it is used, and your rights.
Information we collect
We do not require accounts or registration. We do not knowingly collect personal information such as your name, email address, or payment details through our own forms.
When you use our calculators, inputs are processed in your browser. We do not store your calculation data on our servers.
Automatically collected information
Like most websites, we and our service providers may automatically receive technical information when you visit, including:
- IP address and approximate location
- Browser type, device type, and operating system
- Pages visited, referral URL, and timestamps
- Cookies and similar technologies (see below)
Cookies, analytics, and advertising
We use Google Analytics 4 to measure site usage and Google AdSense to display advertisements. Google and its partners may use cookies or similar technologies to analyze traffic and serve ads based on your visits to this and other websites. See our Cookie Policy for details.
You can learn more about how Google uses data at Google’s partner sites policy and manage ad personalization at Google Ads Settings.
You can also visit aboutads.info to opt out of personalized advertising from participating companies.
Purposes and legal bases
- Operating and securing the website — our legitimate interests in providing a reliable, secure service and preventing abuse.
- Google Analytics — your consent. Analytics does not load for visitors covered by our consent message unless analytics consent is granted.
- Advertising, measurement, and personalization — your consent where required. If you decline, Google may restrict or withhold advertising according to your choice and applicable rules.
- Legal compliance — compliance with legal obligations that apply to us.
You may withdraw consent at any time through Privacy and cookie settings in the footer, without affecting earlier lawful processing.
Analytics
We use Google Analytics 4 (measurement ID G-DH6DXGEYCK) to understand how visitors use Toolkit Grid — for example which pages and calculators are viewed, how users arrive at the site, and general device and browser information. This helps us improve our tools and content.
Google Analytics may collect information such as your IP address (often truncated), pages visited, referral source, approximate geographic region, browser and device type, and interactions on the site. Google processes this data under its own privacy policy. Learn more at Google Privacy Policy and Google Analytics data privacy.
Where consent is required, our consent message allows you to consent, refuse, or manage purposes. Google Analytics loads only after analytics consent. You can later change your decision through Privacy and cookie settings in the footer. You can also use the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on. See our Cookie Policy for details.
Recipients and international transfers
Personal data may be received by Google Ireland Limited and the advertising technology providers listed in the consent message. Technical hosting and network providers may also process limited request and security information to deliver the site.
Some recipients may process data outside the EU/EEA, including in the United States. Where applicable, transfers are protected by an adequacy decision such as the EU–US Data Privacy Framework, the European Commission's Standard Contractual Clauses, or another lawful transfer mechanism. See Google's data-transfer frameworks.
Third-party links
Our site may link to external websites. We are not responsible for the privacy practices of those sites. We encourage you to read their policies.
Children’s privacy
Toolkit Grid is not directed at children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children.
Data retention and security
We do not maintain user accounts or store calculator inputs. Consent records are generally retained for up to 13 months. Google Analytics user and event data is retained for up to 14 months in our property, while some aggregated reports may remain longer without directly identifying a visitor. Advertising cookies have the durations described in our Cookie Policy; advertising providers may retain related records according to their disclosed policies and legal obligations.
We use reasonable technical and organizational safeguards appropriate to this static website, but no internet transmission is completely secure.
Your rights
Under applicable data-protection law, you may have rights to access, correct, erase, restrict, or object to processing of your personal data, and to receive portable data. Where processing is based on consent, you may withdraw it at any time. You may contact us at info@toolkitgrid.com to exercise these rights.
You also have the right to complain to Sweden's supervisory authority, Integritetsskyddsmyndigheten (IMY), or the data-protection authority where you live.
Automated decisions
We do not make decisions that produce legal or similarly significant effects about you using automated processing. If you consent to personalized advertising, advertising providers may use browsing and inferred-interest data to select ads, as explained in the consent message.
Changes to this policy
We may update this Privacy Policy when our practices or legal obligations change. The “Last updated” date at the top will change when we do. If a change requires a new consent choice, we will ask for it.
