Privacy Policy

1. Data Collection & Storage

We operate as a static, client-side tool to minimize data risks:

• Local Storage: Your inventory selections and calculator settings are saved locally in your browser's storage so you can pick up where you left off. This data never leaves your device.
• No Personal Accounts: We do not require you to create an account, set a password, or provide payment details.
• Server Logs: We do not collect personally identifiable information (PII). Our servers only see standard web requests required to load the site assets.

2. Cookies & Analytics

• Zero Invasive Tracking: We do not use third-party advertising cookies or cross-site trackers.
• Anonymous Analytics: If we utilize analytics to improve site performance, we only collect aggregate, anonymous data (for example, which calculator features are used most). We cannot identify you personally from this data.

3. Your Data Control

Since your data is stored on your device, you have full control:

• Clearing Data: You can reset the tool to its default state at any time by clearing your browser's cache or "Local Storage" for our domain. This permanently removes your saved inventory/settings.
• No Server Retention: Because we don't sync your inventory to a database, there is no server-side user data for us to delete.

4. Third-Party Content

We aim to avoid embedding widgets that track users. Any future integrations with external services will be clearly noted, and we will prioritize partners that respect user privacy.

5. Children's Privacy

The Forge Calculator is a general audience tool. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under the age of 13.

6. Updates to This Policy

As the game and our tool evolve, we may update this policy. Significant changes will be noted in our release notes or on this page.
