2. Client-Side Only Data Processing

All interactive calculators on TheYardCalc run entirely on the client side in your web browser. Any dimensions, units, waste percentages, or material specifications you enter into our calculation tools are processed locally in temporary browser memory. We do not store, log, transmit, or sell your project dimensions or calculation inputs on our servers.

These log files record standard technical parameters when visitors access the website, including internet protocol (IP) addresses, browser type, Internet Service Provider (ISP), date and time stamp, referring/exit pages, and number of clicks. These are not linked to any personally identifiable information and are used solely for analyzing trends, administering the site, and preventing DDoS cyber attacks.
