2. Scope of This Policy

This Privacy Policy applies to information collected through the CarbonClarity Website and tools, including any forms, calculators, contact pages, and analytics used on the site.[web:61][web:62]

It does not apply to third‑party websites, apps, or services that we do not control, even if they are linked from our Website. Those services have their own privacy policies.

3. Information We Collect

3.1 Information you provide voluntarily

CarbonClarity is designed so that most calculators work directly in your browser without requiring you to create an account. However, we may collect information that you voluntarily choose to provide, such as:

3.2 Non‑personal and technical information

When you visit the Website, standard technical information may be collected automatically, such as:[web:61][web:71]

This information is generally aggregated and used to understand how people use the Website, improve performance, and maintain security.

3.3 Calculator inputs

The values you enter into the carbon footprint calculators (for example electricity use, travel distance, waste, or diet frequency) are processed in your browser to generate results. In the base configuration of CarbonClarity, these values are not linked to your identity and are not stored on a server in a way that directly identifies you.

If we introduce optional features such as saving profiles or exporting reports via email, additional information may be collected and will be explained at the point of collection.

The Website may use cookies and similar technologies to provide core functionality, improve performance, remember preferences, and analyze traffic.[web:61][web:64][web:71]

Where required by law, we will display a cookie banner or consent notice that allows you to manage your cookie preferences.

5. Analytics and Third‑Party Services

We may use privacy‑focused analytics tools (for example, Google Analytics or similar services) to understand how visitors use CarbonClarity and to improve the user experience.[web:58][web:59][web:61]

These tools may collect information such as pages visited, time spent on each page, and basic device data. The data is typically aggregated and does not include your calculator inputs as identifiable personal information.

Third‑party providers process this information on our behalf under their own privacy terms. You can review their policies for more details on how they handle data.
