This Privacy & Cookies Policy explains how Daytics (“we”, “us”, “our”) collects and uses information when you visit daytics.com and use the Business Days Calculator.
1) Who we are
Daytics provides a free tool to calculate working days between dates. We do not run user accounts and we do not sell personal data.
Contact: info@daytics.com.
2) What we collect
- Usage data: pages viewed, buttons clicked (e.g., “Calculate”), approximate device/browser details. Collected via Google Analytics 4.
- Technical logs: standard web server logs (IP address, user-agent, timestamps) for security and diagnostics.
- No special category data and no account/profile data are collected.
3) Cookies & similar technologies
We use cookies and local storage for:
- Essential operation: loading the site quickly, caching via our service worker for offline/fast repeat loads.
- Analytics: Google Analytics 4 to understand aggregated usage.
- Advertising: We may show Google AdSense ads. Until fully approved, placeholders may be present. If ads are enabled, Google may set cookies to measure ad performance and, where permitted, personalise ads.
Managing cookies
You can block or delete cookies in your browser settings. If you prefer not to be measured by Google Analytics, you can use Google’s Analytics Opt-out.
4) Analytics (Google Analytics 4)
GA4 helps us understand how the site is used (for example, how many people click “Calculate”). GA4 processes device and usage information and may set first-party cookies. We do not use GA4 to identify you as a specific individual. Data retention is controlled in our Google Analytics settings.
5) Advertising (Google AdSense)
We intend to use Google AdSense to fund the service. In the UK/EU/EEA, we will respect consent requirements. Until a consent management solution is deployed, ads will be non-personalised or disabled. Google may collect information as an independent controller when ads are shown. See Google’s policies: Advertising & cookies.
6) Third-party services we call
- Public Holiday API (Nager.Date): When you request a calculation, your browser fetches public holidays for the selected country and year(s). This call is made directly from your device to the API provider, who will receive your IP address as part of the request.
- Google services: GA4 (analytics) and AdSense (ads), as above.
7) Legal basis
- Essential operations (site delivery, caching, security): legitimate interests.
- Analytics: consent where required by law; otherwise legitimate interests in improving the service.
- Advertising: consent where required by law; otherwise legitimate interests in funding the service.
8) Data sharing & retention
We share data with service providers (e.g., Google) to operate analytics/ads. We do not sell personal data. Server logs are kept for a limited period for security and troubleshooting. Analytics retention is managed in GA4 settings.
9) Security
We use HTTPS and standard security measures. No method is 100% secure, but we work to protect the service and your data.
10) Children
Daytics is not directed to children under 13. If you believe a child has provided us information, please contact us to remove it.
11) Your rights
Depending on your location, you may have rights to access, correct, delete, or restrict processing of personal data, and to object or withdraw consent. To exercise these rights, contact us using the details above.
12) Changes to this policy
We may update this policy from time to time. We will update the “Last updated” date at the top when changes are made.
Note on consent: If/when we enable AdSense in the UK/EU/EEA, we will implement a consent solution compatible with IAB TCF v2. Until then, ads will be non-personalised or disabled.
