Privacy Policy
This policy explains how FabricYardageCalculator.com handles information when you use our fabric calculators, guides, contact form, analytics tools, and advertising features.
Privacy at a Glance
No Account Required
You can use the fabric calculators and read guides without creating an account.
Calculator Inputs
Measurements and project settings are used to calculate estimates and are not intentionally tied to your identity.
Analytics and Ads
We use Google Analytics and may use Google AdSense to understand site performance and support free access.
Consent Controls
Eligible visitors may see a Google consent message for advertising and analytics choices.
Scope
This policy applies to FabricYardageCalculator.com, including pages on the fabricyardagecalculator.com and www.fabricyardagecalculator.com domains. It covers our calculators for upholstery, sewing, curtains, quilting, cushions, yardage charts, guides, and related support pages.
The website is an independent fabric planning resource. You do not need to create an account, sign in, or provide a payment method to use the calculators.
Information We Collect
Calculator and project inputs
The calculators ask for project measurements and preferences, such as fabric width, pattern repeat, window size, cushion dimensions, garment type, or overage settings. These inputs are used to generate yardage estimates. We do not ask for your name or contact details inside the calculators.
Usage and technical information
Like most websites, we may collect technical information such as pages visited, approximate location, device type, browser type, referring page, timestamps, and interaction signals. This information helps us understand how the site performs and which calculators or guides need improvement.
Calculator feedback
If you use the optional feedback prompt beside a calculator result, we may collect whether the estimate was helpful, a fixed improvement reason, the calculator and project type, the page path, and any comment you choose to provide. We do not ask for a name or email address. Google Analytics may receive broad categories derived from the calculation, but not exact measurements, result totals, costs, or free-text comments.
Contact information
If you contact us, we may receive your name, email address, message content, and any project details you choose to include. The contact form is submitted through a form delivery provider so your message can reach us by email.
Advertising and consent information
When advertising or consent tools are active, Google and its partners may process cookies, device identifiers, consent choices, ad interaction data, and similar signals to serve ads, measure ad performance, prevent fraud, and respect your privacy choices.
How We Use Information
We use information for the following purposes:
- Operate, maintain, and secure the website.
- Calculate fabric yardage estimates and improve calculator accuracy.
- Review optional result ratings and comments to identify confusing or inaccurate estimates.
- Understand site traffic, popular pages, errors, and performance issues.
- Respond to questions, correction requests, and support messages.
- Display, measure, and manage advertising where AdSense is enabled.
- Comply with legal, security, fraud prevention, and policy obligations.
Consent and Privacy Choices
For visitors in the European Economic Area, the United Kingdom, Switzerland, and other regions where consent is required, we may show a Google-certified consent message. This message may allow you to consent, decline consent, or manage individual options for ad partners and purposes.
Your choices may be stored in a cookie or similar local storage so the site can remember them. If you clear cookies, use a different browser, or use a different device, you may need to set your preferences again.
You can also limit cookies through your browser settings, use privacy controls provided by Google, or contact us if you need help finding the appropriate control for this site.
Retention, Security, and Rights
Retention
We keep information only as long as reasonably needed for the purposes described in this policy, unless a longer period is required for legal, security, accounting, or dispute resolution reasons. Contact messages and calculator feedback may be retained so we can respond, improve the calculators, and keep a record of support or correction requests.
Security
We use reasonable technical and organizational measures to protect the website and the information processed through it. No internet service can guarantee complete security, so avoid sending sensitive personal information through the contact form.
Your rights and choices
Depending on where you live, you may have rights to request access, correction, deletion, restriction, objection, portability, or information about how your personal data is handled. You may also have the right to withdraw consent where processing is based on consent.
To make a privacy request, contact us through the Contact page. We may need enough information to verify and process your request.
