Privacy Policy
Last Updated: 01 February 2026At inflationcalculator.in (“we,” “us,” or “our”), we respect your privacy and are committed to protecting it. This Privacy Policy outlines our data practices in compliance with applicable Indian laws.
This Privacy Policy applies solely to the website inflationcalculator.in and does not cover any third-party websites linked from our site.
1. Information We Collect
We strictly adhere to data minimization principles:
- Personal Information: We do NOT collect personally identifiable information (PII) such as your name, email address, phone number, or physical address unless you voluntarily contact us.
- Calculator Data: Financial inputs (amounts, years, rates) entered into our calculators are processed locally in your browser via JavaScript. This data is never sent to our servers.
2. Special Note on Personal Data
Our calculators (Inflation, Purchasing Power, SIP, PPF, EPF, NPS, Retirement Corpus, Tax Savings, Savings, Deflation) rely on client-side processing. This means all computations happen on your device. We do not collect, store, or process any personal financial data entered into these tools. This design ensures maximum privacy and aligns with the data minimization principles of the Digital Personal Data Protection Act (DPDP Act).
3. Cookies and Analytics
We use cookies to ensure site functionality and understand anonymous usage patterns.
- Google Analytics: We use Google Analytics to collect anonymous data about site traffic (e.g., browser type, pages visited, geographic region). This data is not linked to personal identifiers. You can opt out of this tracking by installing the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on.
- You can manage or disable cookies through your browser settings, though this may limit some site features.
4. Third-Party Services
We use trusted third-party providers to support our infrastructure:
- Hosting: Our website is hosted on Hostinger infrastructure. Please refer to their privacy policy for details on server-level data handling.
- Advertising (Google AdSense): We use Google AdSense to display advertisements. Google uses cookies to serve ads based on your prior visits to our website or other websites. Google’s use of advertising cookies enables it and its partners to serve ads to you based on your visit to this site and/or other sites on the Internet. You may opt out of personalized advertising by visiting Google Ads Settings. For more detailed information on how Google manages data in its ad products, please visit How Google uses information from sites or apps that use our services.
- Content Delivery: We use Google Fonts and cdnjs.cloudflare.com for font delivery and JavaScript libraries (Chart.js). These services may collect anonymous usage data per their respective privacy policies.
5. Data Security
We implement appropriate technical measures to protect the limited data we handle. Our site is served over HTTPS to ensure encrypted communication. Since our core calculator functionality is client-side, your financial data remains within your control on your device at all times.
6. Children’s Privacy
This website is intended for a general audience and is not designed for use by children under the age of 13. We do not knowingly collect personal data from children. If we become aware that we have collected personal data from a child without parental consent, we will take steps to delete such information.
7. Compliance with Indian Laws
This Privacy Policy is prepared in accordance with applicable Indian laws, including the Information Technology Act, 2000 (as amended) and the Digital Personal Data Protection Act, 2023 (DPDP Act). As our site processes minimal to no personal data, we comply with the principles of data minimization and purpose limitation. We are committed to full compliance with the DPDP Act provisions as they are phased in through 2027.
8. Privacy Rights for EEA Users
Visitors accessing this website from the European Economic Area (EEA), the United Kingdom, or Switzerland are protected under the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). These regulations provide rights related to the access, correction, restriction, and removal of personal data.
