Privacy Policy

Overview

Frugal Flamingo provides educational calculators that help people compare everyday financial choices. This policy explains what information may be handled when you visit our website.

Information we collect

Calculator inputs

The numbers you enter into our calculators are processed locally by your browser. The current site does not transmit or store those inputs on our servers.

Technical and hosting information

Like most websites, our hosting provider may automatically receive technical information such as your IP address, browser type, device type, requested pages, referring page, and timestamps. This information may appear in security and server logs.

Third-party resources

Our pages may request resources such as fonts from third-party providers. Those providers may receive technical information, including your IP address, under their own privacy terms.

Information you send us

If you contact us, we may retain your message, email address, and any information you choose to include so we can respond.

How we use information

• Operate, secure, troubleshoot, and improve the website.
• Understand general site performance and usage.
• Respond to questions and requests.
• Prevent fraud, misuse, or technical attacks.
• Meet legal obligations and enforce our terms.

We do not use calculator inputs to make lending, insurance, employment, housing, or other eligibility decisions.

How information may be shared

We do not currently sell or rent personal information. Technical or contact information may be disclosed to hosting, security, and other service providers that help operate the site; when required by law or legal process; or as part of a business transfer such as a merger or sale.

Cookies and analytics

The current calculator experience does not require advertising cookies. If we add analytics, advertising, affiliate tracking, or other technologies that materially change our practices, we will update this policy and provide any notices or choices required by law.

Retention and security

We retain information only as reasonably necessary for the purposes described above, including security, operational, and legal needs. No method of storage or transmission is completely secure, but we use reasonable safeguards appropriate to the information we handle.

Children’s privacy

Frugal Flamingo is intended for a general audience and is not directed to children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13.

Your choices and rights

You can avoid providing contact information and can use browser controls to manage cookies or block third-party resources. Depending on where you live, you may have rights to request access, correction, deletion, or information about certain personal data. We may need to verify a request before responding.

Changes to this policy

We may update this policy as the site evolves. The effective date above will change when a revised policy is posted.
