UtilityVerse ("we", "us", "our") operates the website at www.myownhomepage.com. This Privacy Policy explains what information we collect, how we use it, and the choices you have. By using the site you agree to the practices described below.

1. Information we collect

UtilityVerse is designed to be used without an account. We collect only minimal data:

Usage data — anonymous logs of pages visited, referrer, screen size, browser type, country (approximate), via standard server logs and product analytics.
Tool inputs — the numbers and parameters you enter into our calculators (concrete, labor, screen time, lottery) are processed in real time and not associated with any user identity. We do not store your individual calculations on a per-user basis.
Cookies and similar technologies — for essential site functionality (e.g. remembering your cookie-consent choice) and for advertising (see Section 4).

2. How we use information

To provide and improve the free utilities offered on the site.
To understand aggregate usage and prioritize new features.
To detect abuse, fraud, or service degradation.
To serve advertising that helps us keep the utilities free.

3. We do not sell your data

We do not sell, rent, or share your personal information with third parties for their own marketing purposes. Aggregated, non-identifying analytics may be shared with our service providers.

4. Advertising — Google AdSense

UtilityVerse uses Google AdSense to display advertisements. Google and its partners may use cookies (including the DoubleClick cookie) and similar identifiers to serve ads based on your prior visits to this site or other sites on the internet.

You can opt out of personalized advertising by visiting Google's Ads Settings.
You can also opt out of third-party vendors' use of cookies via aboutads.info (US) or youronlinechoices.eu (EU).

5. Third-party services we rely on

Google AdSense — advertising
Project Gutenberg / Gutendex — when you click an e-book download
YouTube oEmbed — when you look up YouTube metadata
PostHog — aggregate product analytics

6. Your rights (GDPR / CCPA)

Depending on your location, you may have the right to access, correct, delete, or restrict processing of personal data. Because we do not link usage data to identifiers like email, these requests are limited in scope — but you can always contact us using the email below.

7. Children's privacy

UtilityVerse is not directed at children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If you believe a child has provided us information, please contact us.

8. Data retention

Server logs are retained for up to 90 days. Aggregated analytics may be retained for up to 24 months. Cookie-consent preferences are stored in your browser's localStorage and never leave your device.

9. Changes to this policy

We may update this Privacy Policy. Material changes will be reflected in the "Last updated" date at the top of this page. Continued use of the site means you accept the updated policy.
