This Privacy Policy explains how The Calculated Choice (“we,” “us,” “our”) collects, uses, and protects information when you visit thecalculatedchoice.com.
Information We Collect
- Automatically collected data: standard technical information such as browser type, device type, pages visited, and time spent on the Site, collected through cookies and analytics tools.
- Information you provide: if you contact us by email or through a form, we collect the information you choose to share (such as your name and email address).
- Newsletter sign-ups: if you request our free checklist or join our email list, we collect your email address so we can send you what you asked for and a short series of related emails.
Cookies
We use cookies to understand how visitors use the Site and to improve content over time. Amazon and other affiliate partners may also place their own cookies when you click an outbound link; these are governed by that partner’s own privacy policy, not ours.
How We Use Information
- To operate, maintain, and improve the Site
- To understand which content is useful to readers
- To respond to inquiries sent through our Contact page
We do not sell your personal information to third parties.
Third-Party Services
This Site contains links to retailers, including Amazon.com, and some of these may be affiliate links. We may also use analytics services (such as Google Analytics) to understand site traffic. These third parties have their own privacy policies governing how they handle data.
Email Newsletter
When you sign up through a form on this Site, your email address is stored and sent by our email service provider, Sender (sender.net), which handles it on our behalf. We use it only to send the emails you asked for, such as the Winter Car Emergency Checklist and a short series of related car care tips. Our email provider may record whether an email was opened or a link was clicked, which helps us improve future emails.
Every email includes an unsubscribe link, and you can leave the list at any time. You can also ask us to delete your email address by writing to contact@thecalculatedchoice.com. We never sell or rent your email address.
Your Choices
Most browsers let you refuse or delete cookies through their settings. Doing so may affect how some parts of the Site function.
Children’s Privacy
This Site is not directed at children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children.
Changes to This Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy periodically. Any changes will be posted on this page with an updated revision date.
