Privacy Policy
Last updated: April 24, 2026
1. Introduction
Welcome to Walking Weight Loss Calculator (accessible at https://www.walkingweightlosscalculator.com, referred to as "we," "us," or "our"). Your privacy matters to us, and this Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, and protect information when you visit our website or use our free walking calorie and weight loss calculator.
This Privacy Policy applies to all visitors of our website and to all pages and tools we provide. By using our site, you agree to the practices described in this policy. If you do not agree, please do not use the website.
We have tried to write this policy in clear, simple English so that anyone can understand what happens to their data. If any section is unclear to you, please contact us using the details in the Contact Information section.
2. Information We Collect
We collect two broad categories of information: information you provide voluntarily, and information that is collected automatically when you visit the site.
2.1 Personal Information
We do not require you to create an account, log in, or provide any personal details to use the Walking Weight Loss Calculator. We do not collect or store your name, address, phone number, or any other directly identifying personal information.
The only time we receive personal information is when you voluntarily contact us by email. In that case, we receive whatever information you choose to send — for example, your email address, name, and message content — and we use it only to reply to your message.
2.2 Calculator Inputs (Not Stored)
When you use the calculator, you enter details such as age, gender, height, weight, walking speed, and walking duration. This information is processed only in your browser to calculate your results. It is not sent to our servers, not stored, and not shared with any third party.
2.3 Non-Personal Information (Automatically Collected)
Like most websites, our site and our third-party service providers automatically collect certain non-personal technical information when you visit. This may include:
- IP address (often truncated or anonymized by our providers)
- Browser type and version
- Operating system and device type
- Screen size and general device characteristics
- Referring website or search engine
- Pages you visit on our site and the time spent on each page
- Date and time of your visit
- Approximate geographic location (city or country level)
- Cookie identifiers and similar tracking data (see Section 4)
This information is used in aggregate to understand website performance, diagnose technical issues, and improve user experience. It does not, on its own, identify you personally.
3. How We Use Your Information
We use the information described above for the following purposes:
- Operating the website: making sure the calculator and pages load properly, detecting bugs and errors, and maintaining site security.
- Improving the service: understanding which pages and tools are most useful, and making design, content, and performance improvements based on that insight.
- Analytics and measurement: tracking anonymous, aggregated metrics such as page views, session duration, and traffic sources through tools like Google Analytics.
- Advertising: displaying relevant advertisements through Google AdSense (see Section 5).
- Responding to inquiries: if you email us, we use your email address and message to reply to you.
- Legal and security compliance: protecting against fraud, abuse, and violations of our Terms, and complying with applicable laws and valid legal requests.
We do not use your data to build personal profiles about you, to make automated decisions that significantly affect you, or for any purpose not described in this policy.
4. Cookies and Tracking Technologies
Our website uses cookies and similar tracking technologies. This section explains what they are and how we use them.
4.1 What Are Cookies?
Cookies are small text files that are stored on your device (computer, tablet, or phone) when you visit a website. They help websites remember information about your visit — such as your preferences, the pages you have seen, or whether you are a returning visitor. Most modern browsers accept cookies by default, but you can change this in your browser settings.
4.2 Types of Cookies Used on Our Site
- Essential cookies: required for basic website functions such as page loading and security. These cannot usually be switched off in our systems.
- Analytics cookies: used by Google Analytics to understand how visitors use our site in aggregate (for example, which pages are most popular).
- Advertising cookies: used by Google AdSense and its partners to show you ads and measure ad performance. These may include personalized advertising based on your past browsing behavior.
- Performance cookies: used by security and content-delivery partners such as Cloudflare to keep the site fast, safe, and reliable.
4.3 How to Control or Delete Cookies
You can control and delete cookies at any time through your browser. Most browsers allow you to:
- See what cookies are stored and delete them individually
- Block third-party cookies
- Block cookies from specific websites
- Block all cookies (this may affect site functionality)
- Delete all cookies when the browser is closed
For instructions, see your browser's help pages: Chrome, Firefox, Safari, or Edge.
You can also use a privacy-focused browser (such as Brave or Firefox) or a tracker-blocking extension to limit cookie use across all websites.
5. Google AdSense and Third-Party Advertising
To keep this website free, we display advertisements served by Google AdSense, a third-party advertising service operated by Google LLC. Google AdSense uses cookies and similar technologies to serve ads based on your previous visits to our website and other sites on the internet.
5.1 The DoubleClick / Google Advertising Cookie
Google, as a third-party vendor, uses the DoubleClick cookie (and related Google advertising cookies) to serve ads. The DoubleClick cookie enables Google and its partners to serve ads to our users based on their visits to our site and other sites on the internet. This may include personalized advertising.
- You can opt out of personalized advertising by visiting Google Ad Settings.
- You can also opt out of third-party vendor use of cookies for personalized advertising by visiting aboutads.info or youronlinechoices.eu (for European users).
- For full details on how Google uses data from sites or apps that use their services, please review Google's Advertising Policies and How Google Uses Information From Sites or Apps That Use Our Services.
Even if you opt out of personalized advertising, you may still see ads — they will just be less relevant to your interests.
5.2 Other Advertising Networks
Google AdSense may work with additional third-party advertising partners. These partners are required to follow Google's advertising policies and may also use cookies to serve ads. We do not control these third-party cookies directly.
6. Third-Party Services We Use
In addition to Google AdSense, we use a small number of well-known third-party services to run and improve the website. Each service has its own privacy practices, which are linked below.
- Google Analytics — helps us understand how visitors use the site through anonymized, aggregated traffic data. Google Privacy Policy. You can install the Google Analytics Opt-Out Browser Add-on to disable Google Analytics tracking.
- Google Search Console & Bing Webmaster Tools — provide search performance data to help us improve how our pages appear in search results. These tools do not track individual users.
- Cloudflare — provides content delivery, security, and bot protection. Cloudflare Privacy Policy.
- Google Fonts / CDN resources (if used) — may receive your IP address when serving fonts or scripts. See Google's privacy policy above.
7. Data Sharing and Disclosure
We respect your privacy and we keep sharing to an absolute minimum. Specifically:
- We do not sell your personal information to anyone.
- We do not rent or trade personal information with marketing companies.
- We do not share your calculator inputs with any party — they never leave your browser.
We may, however, share limited information in the following narrow circumstances:
- With service providers: our analytics, hosting, advertising, and security providers (listed in Section 6) process certain non-personal data on our behalf under their own privacy policies.
- For legal reasons: if required by valid legal process (for example, a court order or subpoena), or to protect the rights, property, or safety of our users, the public, or ourselves.
- In the event of a business transfer: if our website or its assets are ever transferred to another owner, user information may be transferred as part of that transaction, subject to this Privacy Policy.
8. Data Security
We take reasonable technical and organizational measures to protect the integrity and confidentiality of information handled through our website. These measures include:
- Serving the website over HTTPS (encrypted connections)
- Using reputable hosting, CDN, and security providers
- Keeping third-party software and dependencies up to date
- Limiting access to any data we do handle to the site operator only
- Using enterprise-grade protection against common web attacks (via Cloudflare)
While we work hard to protect your data, no method of transmission over the internet or electronic storage is 100% secure. We cannot guarantee absolute security, and you use the website at your own risk. If you have concerns about security, please contact us.
9. Your Privacy Rights
Depending on where you live, you may have specific legal rights regarding your personal data. We honor these rights regardless of where you are located.
9.1 Rights Under the GDPR (European Economic Area and United Kingdom)
If you are located in the EEA, the UK, or Switzerland, you have the following rights under the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR):
- Right of access: request confirmation of whether we process your personal data and a copy of that data.
- Right to rectification: request that incorrect or incomplete data be corrected.
- Right to erasure ("right to be forgotten"): request that we delete your personal data, where legally applicable.
- Right to restriction of processing: request that we limit how we use your data.
- Right to object: object to our processing of your data, including for direct marketing.
- Right to data portability: receive your data in a machine-readable format.
- Right to withdraw consent: where processing is based on consent, you can withdraw it at any time.
- Right to lodge a complaint: you may complain to your local data protection authority.
Because we do not create accounts and do not intentionally collect personal information through the calculator, in most cases we have no personal data about you to access, correct, or delete. Third-party services (Google Analytics, Google AdSense, Cloudflare) process their own data under their own privacy policies, and you can exercise your rights directly with them using the links above.
9.2 Rights Under the CCPA / CPRA (California Residents)
If you are a California resident, the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA) and California Privacy Rights Act (CPRA) give you the following rights:
- Right to know what personal information is collected, used, shared, or sold.
- Right to delete personal information collected from you (subject to legal exceptions).
- Right to correct inaccurate personal information.
- Right to opt out of the sale or sharing of personal information.
- Right to limit use and disclosure of sensitive personal information.
- Right to non-discrimination for exercising any of these rights.
We do not sell your personal information. Advertising cookies set by Google and its partners may, under some definitions of "sharing" in the CPRA, qualify as sharing for cross-context behavioral advertising. You can opt out of such advertising cookies at any time using the links in Section 5.
9.3 How to Exercise Your Rights
To exercise any of the rights described above, please email us at [email protected] with the subject line "Privacy Rights Request". Please describe which right you want to exercise. We will respond within a reasonable time frame required by applicable law (typically within 30–45 days).
We may need to verify your identity before acting on certain requests to protect your data from unauthorized access.
10. Children's Information
Our website is intended for a general adult audience interested in health and fitness. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under the age of 13 (or under 16 in the European Economic Area and the United Kingdom), in compliance with the Children's Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA) and the GDPR.
If you are a parent or guardian and believe that a child under the applicable age has provided us with personal information, please contact us at [email protected]. We will promptly delete any such information from our records.
11. International Users and Data Transfers
Our website is operated from Nepal and may be accessed by users around the world. The third-party services we use (such as Google and Cloudflare) are headquartered in the United States and may process data in multiple countries.
If you access the website from outside your home country, you understand that information may be transferred to, stored in, and processed in countries that may have different data protection rules than those of your jurisdiction. These transfers are protected by the privacy policies and contractual safeguards of our service providers.
12. Changes to This Privacy Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes in our practices, the services we use, or applicable law. When we make changes, we will update the "Last updated" date at the top of this page.
If the changes are significant, we may also display a prominent notice on the website. We encourage you to review this Privacy Policy periodically to stay informed about how we protect your information. Your continued use of the website after any changes indicates acceptance of the revised policy.
