Privacy Policy — Your Data Security

Last Updated: June 21, 2025

This Privacy Policy describes how FitNirvana ("we," "us," or "our") handles information when you use our website at fitnirvana.com (the "Site"). We are committed to protecting your privacy and being transparent about our data practices.

1. Information We Collect

1.1 Personal Health Data

We do not collect your personal health data. All calculations performed on our fitness calculators — including body fat percentage, TDEE, macro calculations, ideal body weight, water intake, and weight loss projections — happen entirely within your web browser using client-side JavaScript. Your measurements, weight, height, age, and other inputs are never transmitted to our servers or any third party.

1.2 Automatically Collected Information

Like most websites, our servers may automatically collect certain technical information when you visit our Site, including:

IP address (anonymized where possible)
Browser type and version
Operating system
Referring URL
Pages visited and time spent on each page
Date and time of access

This information is used solely for website analytics, performance optimization, and security purposes. It cannot be used to identify you personally.

1.3 Cookies and Local Storage

FitNirvana uses minimal cookies and local storage:

Theme Preference: We store your dark/light mode preference in your browser's local storage so your chosen theme persists between visits. This is not a tracking cookie.
Essential Cookies: We may use essential cookies necessary for the basic functionality of the website, such as security and accessibility features.
Analytics Cookies: If we use analytics services (such as Google Analytics), these may set cookies to help us understand how visitors use our Site. These cookies collect information anonymously.

2. How We Use Information

Any information we collect is used exclusively for the following purposes:

To provide and maintain the functionality of our calculators and website
To analyze website traffic and usage patterns to improve user experience
To detect and prevent security threats, fraud, and abuse
To comply with legal obligations

3. Information We Do NOT Collect

To be explicitly clear, FitNirvana does not:

Collect, store, or transmit any health measurements you enter into our calculators
Require user accounts, email addresses, or personal registration
Sell, rent, or trade any user data to third parties
Use tracking technologies for behavioral advertising or targeted marketing
Build user profiles or create databases of personal health information
Share data with data brokers or marketing platforms

4. Third-Party Services

Our website may use the following third-party services:

Google Fonts: We use Google Fonts to display typography. Google may collect limited technical data when fonts are loaded. See Google's Privacy Policy.
Analytics: We may use web analytics services to understand site traffic. These services collect anonymous, aggregated data only.
Advertising: Our Site may display advertisements from third-party ad networks. These networks may use cookies to serve relevant ads. You can opt out of personalized advertising through your browser settings or industry opt-out tools.

5. Data Security

We implement appropriate technical and organizational security measures to protect the limited data we do collect. Our website uses HTTPS encryption to ensure data transmitted between your browser and our servers is secure. However, no method of transmission over the Internet is 100% secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.

6. Children's Privacy

Our website is not directed at children under the age of 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If you are a parent or guardian and believe your child has provided us with personal information, please contact us, and we will take steps to remove such information.

7. Your Rights

Depending on your jurisdiction, you may have the following rights regarding your personal data:

Right to Access: Request information about what data we hold about you.
Right to Deletion: Request deletion of any personal data we may have.
Right to Opt Out: Opt out of any non-essential cookies through your browser settings.
Right to Complain: Lodge a complaint with your local data protection authority.

Since we collect minimal data and process no personal health information, most of these rights are automatically satisfied by our privacy-by-design approach.

8. International Users

FitNirvana is accessible worldwide. If you are accessing our Site from outside the country where our servers are located, please be aware that any data transmitted may be processed in a different jurisdiction. By using our Site, you consent to this transfer. We strive to comply with applicable data protection regulations including GDPR (European Union), CCPA (California), and other local privacy laws.

9. Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes in our practices or legal requirements. We will post the updated policy on this page with a revised "Last Updated" date. We encourage you to review this page periodically for any changes. Your continued use of the Site after any modifications constitutes acceptance of the updated Privacy Policy.
