Drive Cost Tools

Privacy policy

How calculator values, analytics, advertising, and contact information may be handled.

Effective: August 20, 2026

Calculator information

Calculator inputs and results are processed in your browser. The current version does not require an account or intentionally transmit those values to a Drive Cost Tools database.

Avoid entering account numbers, vehicle identification numbers, personal identifiers, or other sensitive information. The calculators only need general financial and vehicle figures.

Technical and analytics information

The hosting provider may process standard technical information such as IP address, browser type, requested pages, timestamps, and security logs to deliver and protect the service.

Vercel Web Analytics is enabled to measure page views and general site usage. Vercel describes this service as storing anonymized analytics data without using cookies. Calculator inputs and results are not intentionally sent as analytics events.

Advertising

Drive Cost Tools is connected to Google AdSense for site review and may use AdSense to serve clearly labelled advertising after approval and consent setup. Google and its advertising partners may use cookies, web beacons, IP addresses, or other identifiers to deliver, measure, personalize, and protect advertising where permitted.

Calculator inputs and results are processed in the browser and are not intentionally sent to Google as advertising events. Advertising will not be placed inside calculator inputs or presented as a calculator result.

Where consent is required, a Google-certified consent-management experience will be configured before Google-served advertising is enabled. Visitors may then be offered choices about personalized or non-personalized advertising as applicable.

Contact information

If you contact us, we may receive your email address and the information you choose to provide. Contact records should be retained only as long as reasonably needed for the enquiry, legal obligations, security, or dispute resolution.

Your choices

Browser controls may let you block or delete cookies. Where a Google privacy message applies, you may accept, decline, or manage the available choices. After making a selection, use the Privacy choices control in the footer to reopen the message and change that selection.

Google and other providers may offer additional advertising controls. Depending on where you live, privacy law may provide rights regarding access, correction, or deletion of personal information.

Changes and contact

This policy may change as the service, analytics, or advertising configuration changes. Material revisions will be reflected by a new effective date. Use the contact method on the contact page for privacy questions.
