Privacy Policy

This Privacy Policy explains how PuttyCostCalc.com handles information in connection with its free wall putty calculators and informational website. It distinguishes the numerical inputs processed by your browser from information that can be processed by our website infrastructure or through email. Last updated: 22 October 2026.

1. Who this policy covers

This notice applies when you visit PuttyCostCalc.com, use our calculators, follow our links or contact us by email. For questions about personal information or your rights under applicable law, write to contact@puttycostcalc.com.

The site is focused on readers in India but can be accessed elsewhere. Local privacy rights and requirements may differ depending on where you are and which laws apply to the processing involved.

2. Calculator inputs

Our calculator JavaScript performs the entered area, room, coverage, bag and cost arithmetic in your browser. You do not have to create an account or give your name to use the calculation tools. The calculators are not designed to transmit their numerical form inputs to a site database as part of calculating a result.

Do not type sensitive personal data, credentials, payment card details, identity numbers or confidential project information into these fields. Although calculation occurs in the browser, normal requests to load the website and its files can still generate technical records at the hosting or security layer.

3. Information we may receive

  • Technical and security data: depending on hosting configuration, IP address, requested URL, browser or device information, timestamps, referral information and error or security logs.
  • Communications: your email address, name if included, message content, attachments and subsequent correspondence when you voluntarily email the site.
  • Website operations: limited cookies or browser storage associated with caching, security, WordPress administration or similar necessary site functions.
  • Third-party site activity: if you follow an external link, the destination may collect information independently under its own policy.

4. Why information is used

Technical records may be processed to deliver pages and calculator files, secure the website, prevent abuse, diagnose failures, assess reliability and comply with lawful obligations. Communication details may be used to answer inquiries, investigate reported errors, administer requests, and keep reasonable records of resolutions.

The basis for processing can depend on your location and the applicable law. Where consent is required, we should request it for the relevant activity. Other purposes, such as operating and securing the site or responding to a message you initiate, may rely on another lawful ground where permitted.

5. Hosting, software and service providers

The website uses WordPress, GeneratePress and related site-management or caching tools. Our hosting provider and vendors involved in delivering, protecting and maintaining the website may process limited technical data on our behalf, subject to their applicable terms, responsibilities and settings.

We do not assume that technical logs are stored only on your device. Vendor systems can be located outside your state or country, depending on the actual service arrangement. Cross-border transfers, when they occur, should follow applicable legal restrictions and safeguards.

6. Cookies and browser controls

Cookies are small identifiers stored in your browser; similar storage methods can serve related functions. Necessary cookies and caching or security settings may be present depending on the page and configuration. Optional analytics, marketing and advertising tools can be introduced in future, but should not be presumed active solely because this policy describes their possible use.

See our Cookie Policy for categories and browser controls. You can review, block or remove browser cookies through your browser settings; blocking necessary technologies may affect site behaviour.

7. Analytics, advertisements and affiliate links

The site’s tools and source links do not require you to subscribe to an advertising service. If analytics, advertising tags or affiliate programs are implemented, their providers may process technical or usage information as explained in their own disclosures and in any revised version of this policy.

Any consent or notice obligations for non-essential technologies should be addressed when those features are introduced. Our Advertising and Affiliate Disclosure explains how commercial relationships should be labelled.

8. Sharing and disclosure

We may disclose information to service providers that support hosting, maintenance or communication, when reasonably needed for those services. Information may also be disclosed when legally required, in response to an applicable lawful process, or to protect the website, its users and other affected parties.

We do not use the calculator to solicit saleable personal profiles. We do not ask readers to send financial or identity data. We cannot speak for the independent privacy practices of sites you visit through outbound links.

9. Retention and deletion

Calculator numbers processed only by the page script are not intentionally stored in a calculator user account on this website. Technical logs, backups and emailed correspondence may be retained for varying periods determined by operational need, provider configuration, incident review or legal obligations.

We aim not to keep identifiable information longer than reasonably necessary for the purpose for which it was collected, subject to applicable retention requirements. If you need information about or deletion of data linked to you, contact us; we will assess what is held, what can be identified and what the law permits or requires.

10. Security

We aim to use appropriate site administration, software maintenance and security practices to protect the site and communications. No website, network or email system can guarantee absolute protection. Please avoid sending passwords, government IDs, bank details or other sensitive attachments in an initial inquiry.

11. Your privacy choices and rights

Depending on applicable law, you may have rights to request information about personal data, correction or erasure of inaccurate or unnecessary data, to withdraw consent where applicable, or to use an available complaint or grievance procedure. These rights may be subject to verification and legal exceptions.

To make a request, email contact@puttycostcalc.com with the subject Privacy Request. Explain the nature of your request without sending sensitive identity details first. We will review it in light of the data actually held and the laws then in force.

For Indian visitors, relevant statutory requirements may include the Digital Personal Data Protection Act, 2023 and its implementing rules as they come into operation. This policy does not claim that every future provision is already in force or that publishing a policy alone completes legal compliance.

12. Children

The website provides general building-material calculations and is not directed at collecting personal information from children. Do not submit a child’s personal data through email or other website features without a suitable legal basis and any required parental involvement.

13. External websites

Manufacturer product sheets and other outbound resources operate under their own privacy and cookie practices. We do not control how an external website processes information after you leave PuttyCostCalc.com. Review the external site’s terms before sharing information there.

14. Policy changes

We may revise this policy when the website’s features, providers, practices or legal obligations change. Significant changes will be reflected by an updated date and revised content on this page. Where law requires additional notice or consent, a page update alone may not be sufficient.
