Last Updated: Nov 2024

Welcome to SuperPawculators

At SuperPawculators, we understand that your privacy and the security of your information are paramount. This comprehensive Privacy Policy outlines our practices for collecting, using, maintaining, protecting, and disclosing information when you visit https://superpawculators.com (the “Site”), including all associated tools, calculators, content, and services. By accessing or using our Site, you agree to this Privacy Policy. If you do not agree with any part of this policy, please do not use our Site.

Information We Collect

We collect several types of information from and about users of our Site, including information by which you may be personally identified and information about your pets. The information we collect depends on how you interact with our Site and the features you use.

Information You Voluntarily Provide

When you use our calculators and tools, you may provide information about your pets, including their age, weight, breed, activity level, and health conditions. This information is necessary to provide accurate calculations and recommendations. While you are not required to provide this information, without it, we may not be able to deliver the full functionality of our tools.

If you contact us directly, we may receive additional information about you, such as your name, email address, the contents of your message, and any other information you choose to provide. When you post comments or interact with our blog posts, we collect the information you provide in your submissions, including any personal information.

Email Communications and Newsletter Subscriptions

We collect email addresses when you voluntarily subscribe to our newsletter, updates, or other email communications. When you provide your email address for subscription purposes, we collect and store this information along with your subscription preferences. This may occur through newsletter signup forms, pop-up notifications, or when downloading resources from our Site.

Your email address will be used to send you:

  • Regular newsletters with pet care tips and advice
  • Updates about new calculators and tools
  • Important announcements about our services
  • Educational content about pet health and nutrition
  • Special offers from our affiliate partners (if you’ve opted in)

We use industry-standard email service providers to manage our email communications. These providers maintain appropriate security measures and data processing agreements. Every marketing email we send includes an unsubscribe link, allowing you to opt out of future communications at any time. If you unsubscribe, we will honor your request promptly, though you may continue to receive non-marketing, transactional emails that are essential to your use of our services.

We do not sell, rent, or trade email lists with other organizations for marketing purposes. If we share email addresses with service providers, it is only to the extent necessary to deliver our newsletter and related services. We maintain records of your subscription preferences and email engagement to improve our communications and ensure they remain relevant to your interests.

Automatically Collected Information

When you visit our Site, we automatically collect certain information about your device and usage patterns. This includes technical information about your device such as your IP address, browser type, operating system, and various usage statistics. We also collect information about how you interact with our Site, including the pages you visit, the time and date of your visits, the time spent on those pages, and other diagnostic data.

Cookies and Similar Technologies

Our Site uses cookies and similar tracking technologies to track activity and maintain certain information. Cookies are small data files that are placed on your device when you visit our Site. We use both session cookies, which expire when you close your browser, and persistent cookies, which stay on your device until they expire or you delete them.

These technologies help us understand how our Site is being used, improve your experience, and ensure the security of your session. The cookies we use serve various purposes, including essential site functionality, analytics, and, where applicable, affiliate marketing tracking.

Affiliate Marketing and Third-Party Relationships

We participate in various affiliate marketing programs and maintain relationships with trusted third-party partners. Through these programs, we may earn commissions when users click on affiliate links and make qualifying purchases through our partner websites. Our participation in affiliate programs does not influence our content or calculator accuracy, and we maintain strict editorial independence.

When you click on affiliate links from our Site, cookies or similar technologies may be placed on your device to help our partners track the origin of the traffic and process potential commissions. These tracking mechanisms do not collect personal information beyond what is necessary for proper attribution and commission processing.

We are committed to transparency in our affiliate relationships and will always clearly disclose our affiliate partnerships. Any recommendations or product mentions are based on genuine research and consideration of our users’ needs, regardless of affiliate relationships.

How We Use Your Information

We use the information collected through our Site to provide, maintain, and improve our services. The pet-related information you provide is processed through our calculators to generate accurate nutritional recommendations and health insights. This processing occurs in real-time and is essential for the core functionality of our tools.

Your usage data helps us understand how visitors interact with our Site, enabling us to enhance user experience and develop new features. We analyze patterns in calculator usage to refine our algorithms and ensure our tools remain accurate and helpful for pet owners. This analysis is conducted using aggregated data and does not involve individual identification.

When you contact us through our email address (superpawculators@gmail.com) or contact forms, we use your information to respond to your inquiries, troubleshoot problems, and gather feedback about our services. We may also use your email address to send you important updates about our Site or changes to our terms, but only if you have explicitly opted in to receive such communications.

Data Security

The security of your information is fundamental to our operations. We implement appropriate technical and organizational measures to protect against unauthorized access, alteration, disclosure, or destruction of your personal information. Our security measures include secure socket layer (SSL) encryption, regular security assessments, and restricted access to personal information.

While we strive to use commercially acceptable means to protect your information, we cannot guarantee its absolute security. Internet transmission of information is not completely secure, and while we do our best to protect your personal information, we cannot ensure or warrant the security of any information you transmit to us.

Third-Party Services and Data Processing

Our Site integrates with carefully selected third-party services to enhance functionality and user experience. We use Google Analytics to understand user behavior and improve our services. Google Analytics collects standard internet log information and visitor behavior patterns. This information is processed in a way that does not directly identify anyone.

For affiliate marketing purposes, we work with reputable partners who may process certain information when you click on affiliate links. These partners may use cookies or similar tracking technologies to attribute sales and process commissions. We carefully select our affiliate partners and ensure they maintain appropriate data protection standards.

International Data Transfers and Storage

Your information may be transferred to and processed in countries other than your country of residence. These countries may have different data protection laws than your country. By using our Site, you consent to the transfer of your information to these countries. We take appropriate measures to ensure your information receives an adequate level of protection in the countries where we process it.

Your Privacy Rights and Choices

You maintain significant control over your personal information. You have the right to access, correct, or delete any personal information we hold about you. You may also object to or restrict certain types of processing. To exercise these rights, please contact us at superpawculators@gmail.com. We will respond to your request within a reasonable timeframe.

GDPR Compliance

For users in the European Economic Area (EEA), we comply with the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). Under GDPR, we act as a data controller when processing your personal information. The legal bases for processing your information include consent, contractual necessity, and our legitimate interests. As a data subject in the EEA, you have enhanced privacy rights, including the right to data portability, the right to be forgotten, and the right to restrict processing. We will honor these rights and respond to your requests within the timeframes specified by GDPR.

California Privacy Rights

California residents have specific rights under the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA) and California Online Privacy Protection Act (CalOPPA). You have the right to know what personal information we collect, request deletion of your personal information, opt-out of the sale of your personal information, and receive equal service regardless of whether you exercise your privacy rights. Within the past 12 months, we have collected internet activity information and inferences drawn from this data. We do not sell personal information but share data with service providers as necessary to operate our Site.

Children’s Privacy

Our Site and services are not directed at children under the age of 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If you are a parent or guardian and believe your child has provided us with personal information, please contact us at superpawculators@gmail.com. If we become aware that we have collected personal information from children without parental consent, we will take steps to remove that information from our servers.

Changes to Our Privacy Policy

We reserve the right to modify this Privacy Policy at any time. When we make material changes, we will update the “Last Updated” date at the top of this policy and notify you through a Site notice or direct communication. Your continued use of our Site following the posting of changes constitutes your acceptance of such changes. We encourage you to review this Privacy Policy periodically to stay informed about how we protect your information.

Retention of Information

We retain your information for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes outlined in this Privacy Policy, unless a longer retention period is required or permitted by law. When determining the appropriate retention period, we consider the amount, nature, and sensitivity of the information, the potential risk of harm from unauthorized use or disclosure, the purposes for which we process the information, and applicable legal requirements.

Do Not Track Signals

Some browsers incorporate a Do Not Track (DNT) feature that signals to websites you visit that you do not want to have your online activity tracked. Our Site responds to DNT signals, and we will honor your browser’s DNT preference when technically feasible.

Affiliate Marketing and Advertising

Our affiliate marketing practices are designed to be transparent and fair. When you click on affiliate links on our Site, you may be directed to third-party websites. These websites have their own privacy policies, and we encourage you to review them. We may earn a commission from qualifying purchases made through our affiliate links, but this does not affect the price you pay. Our affiliate relationships do not influence our content or calculator accuracy, and we clearly disclose our affiliate partnerships throughout the Site.
