Cookie Policy

Last updated: October 4, 2025
This Cookie Policy explains how Smart Roofing Calculator (“we,” “us,” or “our”) uses cookies and similar technologies to operate, analyze, and improve this website. By continuing to use the site, you agree to our use of cookies in accordance with this policy.

1. What Are Cookies?

Cookies are small text files stored on your device when you visit a website. They help websites remember your preferences, enable essential functionality, and gather anonymous analytics about how the site is used. Smart Roofing Calculator may also use related technologies like localStorage or sessionStorage to store small amounts of data directly in your browser.

2. Why We Use Cookies

• Essential cookies: Ensure pages, forms, and calculator tools function correctly.
• Performance & analytics: Help us understand how users interact with pages, which calculators are most used, and how to improve usability.
• Functional cookies: Remember your preferences (e.g., unit selections, pitch values) for a smoother experience.
• Security cookies: Protect against spam, misuse, and unauthorized access.
• Optional third-party cookies: Support analytics, embedded media, or privacy-compliant ad networks.

3. Types of Cookies We May Use

• Strictly Necessary: Required for site operation; cannot be disabled in our systems.
• Functional: Remember choices like units of measure, form states, or theme preferences.
• Analytics: Collect anonymous usage data to help us improve tools and design.
• Advertising (if applicable): Used by privacy-compliant ad partners like Google AdSense to show relevant ads.

4. Third-Party Cookies & Services

We may use trusted third-party services such as:

• Google Analytics / Google Tag Manager – anonymized usage statistics.
• Google AdSense – optional contextual advertising (if enabled).
• Cloudflare – content delivery and performance optimization.
• YouTube / Vimeo – video embeds may set cookies when played.

These services maintain their own cookie and privacy policies. We recommend reviewing them directly for more details on how your data is handled.

5. Consent and Legal Basis

Under laws such as the EU’s GDPR and ePrivacy Directive, non-essential cookies (like analytics and ads) require explicit consent. Visitors in applicable regions will see a cookie banner or preferences pop-up the first time they visit.

By clicking “Accept,” you agree to our use of cookies. You can withdraw consent at any time by clearing your cookies or updating browser settings.

6. Managing or Disabling Cookies

You can manage or block cookies through your browser’s settings:

• Google Chrome
• Mozilla Firefox
• Apple Safari
• Microsoft Edge

Please note that disabling essential cookies may impact the functionality of calculators or user preferences.

7. Local Storage vs. Cookies

Smart Roofing Calculator also uses localStorage to save your calculator inputs and results directly on your device. This data does not leave your browser and can be cleared manually in your browser settings. Unlike cookies, it does not automatically expire unless you remove it.

8. Changes to This Policy

We may update this Cookie Policy periodically to reflect new technologies, legal requirements, or functional updates. Changes will be posted here with the revised date at the top of the page.
