At cakescaler.com (referred to as "the Site"), the privacy of our visitors is extremely important. This Privacy Policy outlines the types of information we process and collect, and how we use it, particularly concerning the calculator's function and the use of Google AdSense.
The Site is a calculator and converter service. We do not offer user accounts, comment sections, or contact forms that require personally identifiable information (PII). We do not collect or store any direct personal information such as your name, address, email address, or telephone number.

Calculator Input Data: We do not collect or store any of the recipe data, ingredient amounts, or final calculated results entered into our converters and calculators. Exception (Ingredient Logging): To improve the accuracy and completeness of our service, we note down only the name of an ingredient if it does not match an entry in our database. This is done anonymously and is not connected to specific users or complete recipes.
Like many other websites, cakescaler.com utilizes log files. The information inside the log files is collected automatically by our hosting provider and includes: Internet Protocol (IP) addresses, Browser type, Date/time stamp, Referring/exit pages, and click counts. This data is used solely for analyzing trends, administering the site, tracking user movement, and gathering broad demographic information for statistical purposes. None of this data is linked to any personally identifiable information.
