1 Overview
Women Fitness Calculator is designed with a privacy-first philosophy. Our fitness calculators operate entirely within your web browser — meaning your health inputs such as height, weight, age, and other personal measurements are processed locally on your device and are never transmitted to or stored on our servers.
We collect only the minimal data necessary to operate our website effectively, improve our services, and communicate with users who voluntarily contact us. We do not sell, trade, or rent your personal information to third parties for marketing purposes.
This policy is intended to help you understand the limited scope of our data practices and the rights you hold regarding any information we may collect.
