Privacy Policy

This Privacy Policy explains how PriceElasticityofDemandCalculator.com (“we”, “us”, “our”) handles information when you visit the site or use our price elasticity of demand calculators and related content.

1) Core philosophy

This tool is built to let you explore pricing and demand scenarios without handing over sensitive personal data. Calculations run in your browser based on values you enter. We aim to collect only what is needed to keep the Service fast, reliable, and secure.

2) Information we collect

• Technical & usage data: standard, aggregated metrics such as page views, approximate region, device/browser type, referrer, and basic interaction patterns (e.g., which pages are used most). These help us improve performance, content, and UX.
• Server logs: IP address, user-agent, URLs visited, and timestamps may be logged for security, diagnostics, and abuse prevention.
• Messages you send: if you contact us via the contact page, we receive the details you submit (such as name, email address, and message content).

What we do not intentionally collect via the calculator

• No account signup is required.
• No passwords, payment card numbers, or government ID numbers through the calculator fields.
• No automatic storage of your specific price/quantity inputs as a personal profile. Inputs may appear in logs only incidentally (e.g., query strings) for security/operational reasons.

3) How we use information

• To operate, maintain, and improve the calculator and educational content.
• To monitor performance, detect abuse, and keep the Service secure and stable.
• To respond to your questions, feedback, or support requests.
• To understand anonymous usage trends (e.g., which features are most useful).

4) Legal bases (EEA/UK users)

• Legitimate interests: operating the site, securing it, and measuring basic usage with privacy-respecting analytics.
• Consent: where required for any non-essential cookies, marketing, or optional features that rely on personal data.

5) Cookies & analytics

If analytics or optimization tools are used, we aim for minimal, privacy-conscious implementations (such as aggregated or IP-masked analytics). If any non-essential cookies or similar tracking technologies are introduced, we will provide clear notice and, where required, a way to manage your preferences.

6) Sharing of information

We do not sell your personal information. We may share limited data with trusted third-party providers who help us run the Service (e.g., hosting, security, analytics, email delivery). These providers are required to handle data securely and only for our documented purposes. We may also disclose information if required by law or to protect our rights, users, or the integrity of the Service.

7) Data retention

• Server logs and analytics data are retained only as long as reasonably necessary for security and operations.
• Contact messages are kept as long as needed to respond and maintain appropriate records, then deleted or anonymized.

8) Your rights & choices

• You can use the calculator without creating an account or providing your name.
• Depending on your jurisdiction (e.g., EEA/UK, certain U.S. states), you may have rights to access, correct, delete, or restrict use of personal data we hold about you.
• To exercise these rights, contact us via the contact page, and we will respond in line with applicable law.

9) Children

The Service is intended for adults, students, and professionals interested in economics and pricing concepts. It is not directed to children under 13 (or the minimum age required by local law). If you believe a child has submitted personal information, please contact us so we can delete it.

10) Security

We implement reasonable technical and organizational measures to protect information. However, no method of transmission or storage is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.

11) Changes to this policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. If we make material changes, we will update the “Last updated” date and may display a notice on the site. Your continued use of the Service after changes take effect constitutes acceptance of the updated Policy.

12) Contact

For privacy questions, data requests, or concerns, please reach out via the contact page.
