Legal & privacy
Privacy Policy
This policy explains what Body Type Calculator does with information when you browse the site, use the calculators, save optional local drafts, share result URLs, or contact us by email. The short version: the site’s measurement tools are designed to run in the browser. We also use Google Analytics 4, Google AdSense, regional Google Consent Mode v2 defaults, and Cloudflare Pages hosting as described below.

Overview
This Privacy Policy applies to Body Type Calculator and the pages published under
bodytypecalculator.org. In this policy, “we,” “us,” and “our” refer to the operators of the site.
“You” refers to any visitor, reader, or user of the site’s calculators and guides.
The site is designed to answer practical body-measurement questions with as little data collection as we can reasonably get away with. The calculators are front-end tools, not account-based services. There is no requirement to register, log in, or create a profile before using them. That design choice is a privacy decision as much as a product decision.
At the same time, privacy is not the same as invisibility. When you load any website, your browser has to request files from a server or CDN. When you email us, your message necessarily contains information you chose to send. When you save a result locally or generate a shareable link, your browser may store or display data on your own device. This policy explains those realities in plain language rather than pretending the site is doing nothing at all.
Information We Collect
Information You Provide Directly
The clearest example of information you provide directly is email correspondence. If you send us an email or use the contact page to prepare an email message, we receive whatever contact details and message content you choose to include. That can include your name, email address, page URLs, technical questions, screenshots, correction notes, or other context you decide is relevant.
We do not require you to send body measurements when contacting us, but many users choose to include them when asking why a result looks borderline or whether a measurement was taken correctly. If you send us those numbers voluntarily by email, we will receive them as part of your message. In other words, the site does not harvest measurements behind the scenes, but correspondence you initiate can still contain personal or sensitive context because you put it there yourself.
A second category of direct input exists entirely on your own device: measurements entered into the calculators and guides. These values are typed by you, but under the site’s current implementation they are normally processed in the browser rather than submitted to us. They become information we receive only if you deliberately share them, email them, or encode them in a link and send that link to someone else.
Information Processed Automatically When You Visit
Like any website, the site infrastructure that serves pages may process standard request metadata such as IP address, requested path, browser type, and timestamp in order to deliver files, cache responses, and protect the service from abuse. We do not use those operational requests to build advertising profiles or body-measurement dossiers, but some level of basic network processing is inherent in serving a website at all.
The current front-end codebase includes Google Analytics 4 (GA4) and Google AdSense. Depending on your location and consent choice, Google may process page activity, cookie or device identifiers, IP address, browser and device information, and approximate location. Cloudflare also processes technical request data to host, cache, secure, and deliver the site.
Information We Do Not Intentionally Collect
The site is built specifically to avoid collecting several categories of information that would be easy to overreach on in this niche. We do not intentionally collect measurement entries on our own servers through the calculator UI. We do not maintain user accounts. We do not ask for payment information. We do not run a newsletter signup tied to body-shape data. We use GA4 for site measurement and Google AdSense for advertising, but we do not maintain our own backend profile of your body measurements across sessions.
- Body measurements entered into the calculators are not sent to our server by default.
- Body-type results are not stored in an account profile because there is no account system.
- GA4 page-location reporting is configured to omit URL query strings and hashes that may contain measurements.
- No payment data is requested because the site does not sell subscriptions or products.
How We Use Your Information
We use correspondence data to answer the question you asked, review correction requests, handle privacy concerns, or evaluate collaboration inquiries. If you send a correction report, we may use the content of that report to verify and improve the relevant page. If you write to us about a privacy issue, we may need to refer to the message in order to understand or document the request.
We use browser-local data, where it exists, to improve usability for you rather than for us. For
example, the main calculator can preserve recent unit and measurement choices in localStorage.
The waist-to-hip ratio calculator can preserve its last-used values locally. Measurement guides can save
draft inputs, unit preferences, or tracking entries in the same browser. Those storage mechanisms exist
so you do not lose context after a refresh; they are not used to transmit data back to us.
We may also use operational request data handled by hosting infrastructure to keep the site available and defend it from abuse. Google Analytics helps us understand page usage and reliability signals. Google AdSense displays ads and may personalize them when the relevant consent state and Google policy permit it.
Calculator Data - How It Works
This section matters because it addresses the most common privacy question directly: what happens when you type measurements into the tools? Under the current implementation, the answer is that the calculations are performed by JavaScript running in your browser. The entered values are read by the page, used to compute ratios and category outputs, and shown back to you in the same browsing session.
Several tools also offer convenience features that store state locally. The main body-type calculator can store gender, unit, optional high-hip preference, and current values in browser-local storage. The waist-to-hip ratio calculator can store gender, unit, and the most recent waist and hip values in browser-local storage. The short and long measurement guides can store draft measurement entries and unit settings. The full-body measurement guide also stores locally created tracking sessions and draft chart rows if you use its tracker.
In addition to local storage, some tools can build shareable URLs containing result information. The main calculator can encode result type and measurement values into the URL hash or query string, depending on configuration. The waist-to-hip ratio calculator can place result values in the URL hash. That is useful if you want to copy or bookmark a result, but it has an obvious privacy implication: anyone who sees the full URL may see the values encoded in it. If you do not want measurements visible in a share link, do not share that URL and clear it from the address bar before copying the page location.
The GA4 tag is configured with a page location consisting only of the site origin and pathname. This prevents query strings and hashes from being included in GA4's reported document location. It does not remove values from a share URL visible in your browser, browser history, bookmark, clipboard, or message.
Because the tools are browser-based, you can often inspect this behavior yourself. Browser developer tools can show local storage keys, and the address bar can show whether a result hash is present. We consider that inspectability a feature, not a problem.
Cookies and Similar Technologies
Cookie and Storage Categories
Consent storage: Google provides this site's Google-certified consent management platform (CMP). In the EEA, United Kingdom, and Switzerland, the CMP uses the IAB Transparency and Consent Framework (TCF) to record and communicate your choices. This may include storing CMP cookies and a TCF consent string on your device so participating vendors can read the choice on later visits.
Analytics cookies (optional): used by Google Analytics 4 to collect usage data. For visitors in the EEA, United Kingdom, and Switzerland, analytics storage is denied by default and is only changed when the applicable consent signals permit it. For visitors in other regions, analytics is enabled by default under the site's regional configuration.
Advertising cookies (optional): used by Google AdSense for advertising measurement and, where permitted, personalization. For visitors in the EEA, United Kingdom, and Switzerland, advertising storage, ad user data, and ad personalization are denied by default and are only granted after consent. If those visitors do not consent, Google may restrict, limit, or withhold advertising according to the published CMP message, Google account settings, and applicable policy. For visitors in other regions, advertising consent signals are granted by default under the site's regional configuration.
Google CMP, IAB TCF, and Consent Mode v2
We implement Google Consent Mode v2. Visitors in the EEA, United Kingdom, and Switzerland receive denied
defaults for analytics_storage, ad_storage, ad_user_data, and
ad_personalization until they make a choice. GA4 may send cookieless pings while consent is
denied. Visitors in other regions receive granted defaults under the current regional configuration.
The Google CMP presents the available consent and management choices and communicates them through the IAB TCF where applicable. The Privacy & Cookie Settings control in the footer asks the Google CMP to reopen its privacy message so you can review, change, or withdraw your choice. If a browser extension blocks Google CMP resources, use your browser's site-data controls and revisit this page after allowing the CMP resources.
Local Browser Storage
Several parts of the site use window.localStorage. Local storage is not a cookie; it is a
browser-provided mechanism that stores key-value data on your device for a specific origin. The site uses
it to preserve drafts, units, and optional tracker data between reloads. This
storage remains on your device unless you deliberately share the information another way.
You can usually clear this data through your browser settings or developer tools. In some features, the site also offers a direct way to overwrite or export the local data. Clearing local storage for the site will typically reset saved drafts and unit preferences.
Third-Party Requests
We load GA4 and Google AdSense resources. Google may use cookies, web beacons, IP addresses, and device identifiers to provide analytics, ad measurement, fraud prevention, non-personalized ads, limited ads, or personalized ads depending on consent, location, account settings, and applicable policy.
Third-Party Services
We use Google Analytics 4 (GA4) to understand how visitors use our website. GA4 can collect information
such as pages visited, time spent, device type, browser, IP-derived approximate location, and consent
signals. This data is processed by Google LLC. Measurement ID: G-XJ1B96DKX4.
Read Google's Privacy Policy
and Google's Business Data Responsibility site.
We use Google AdSense to display advertisements. Google AdSense may use cookies, web beacons, IP
addresses, and device identifiers to serve and measure ads, prevent fraud, and personalize ads where
permitted. Publisher ID: ca-pub-4306979469592115. Read

This website is hosted on Cloudflare Pages. Cloudflare may process technical data such as IP addresses, request paths, security signals, and timestamps as part of providing hosting, caching, and security services. Read the Cloudflare Privacy Policy.
The contact page includes a browser-side fallback that can open your local mail application with a drafted message. In the current repository state, no third-party hosted form endpoint is configured by default. If we later enable a hosted form processor, this policy will be updated to identify that processor and describe the data flow.
We do not use Google Tag Manager, Meta Pixel, or TikTok Pixel in the current front-end code. Google Analytics and Google AdSense are installed directly in the page head after the regional consent defaults.
Data Retention
Data retention depends on the category of information involved. Because the site keeps so much of its state in the browser, much of the relevant retention is under your control rather than ours.
| Email correspondence | Retained only as long as reasonably needed to respond, follow up, or maintain an editorial record. |
| Browser local storage | Drafts and the saved consent preference remain until you clear, overwrite, or remove site data. |
| Shareable result URLs | Persist in the URL, browser history, bookmarks, or copies you share until they are removed. |
| Operational hosting metadata | Handled according to Cloudflare's provider-level operational retention schedules. |
| GA4 and advertising data | Handled by Google according to the applicable product settings, consent state, and Google retention policies. |
If you email us and want that correspondence deleted, ask. If you want locally stored measurement data removed, the fastest route is usually clearing local storage or site data in your browser. If you are concerned about a shareable URL containing measurement information, clear or replace the URL and remove it from bookmarks or copied notes where possible.
Your Rights and Choices
GDPR and UK GDPR Rights
If data protection law applies to you, you may have rights such as access, correction, deletion, restriction, objection, and data portability in relation to personal data we actually control. In a site like this, that generally means correspondence data and any information we can identify in relation to a direct contact you initiated, not the measurement values that stay only in your browser.
To exercise a privacy right, email contact@aigotowork.work with enough detail for us to understand what data or interaction you are referring to. We may need to ask for clarifying information so we can identify the correct correspondence or explain what is under our control versus what remains only on your device.
California Privacy Rights
California residents may have rights regarding access to, deletion of, correction of, or certain uses of personal information, subject to applicable limits and exceptions. We do not sell body-measurement data. Google AdSense may use data for personalized advertising where permitted; you can reopen Privacy & Cookie Settings and use Google's My Ad Center controls.
All Users
Regardless of location, you can make several privacy choices immediately without asking us for anything. You can avoid sharing generated result URLs, clear local storage and site data, review applicable consent choices through Privacy & Cookie Settings, and avoid emailing details that are unnecessary for your question. You can contact us whenever a page seems unclear about what it stores or exposes.
Privacy on a browser-based tool is partly about what the operator does and partly about what the user chooses to share. We are responsible for the former, and this policy tries to give you enough clarity to handle the latter with intention.
Children's Privacy
The site is intended as a general informational resource and is not directed to children. We do not knowingly seek personal information from children through the site. If you believe a child has sent us personal information directly by email, contact us and we will review the request and remove the message where appropriate.
Data Security
We try to reduce risk primarily by limiting what the site collects in the first place. Front-end-only calculation and no account system reduce the amount of measurement data that can be exposed through a breach of an application database because that database largely does not exist here. Google Analytics and AdSense are third-party services, but they are not the systems that perform calculator calculations.
That said, no website can promise perfect security. Email is not a magic privacy channel, and browser data remains subject to the security of your device, your browser, and the providers involved in serving the site. If a message is especially sensitive, think carefully before sending unnecessary personal details.
Changes to This Policy
We may update this policy as the site changes. The most likely triggers would be a change in storage behavior, a change in third-party services, a change in analytics or advertising technology, or a significant shift in how the contact form is processed. When we update the policy, we will revise the “Last updated” date at the top of the page and replace outdated statements rather than leaving them in place as dead text.
Contact Us
If you have a privacy question, want help understanding what a page stores locally, or want to request deletion of correspondence you sent us, email contact@aigotowork.work. You may also use the backup address midoriko053@gmail.com if needed.
Please include enough detail for us to identify the interaction you are asking about. For example: the page you used, whether you are asking about local storage, a shared URL, or email correspondence, and the action you want us to take.
