1. Introduction
Welcome to PropCalc ("we", "our", or "us"). We operate the website at propcalc.vip, a free real estate calculator tool. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, disclose, and safeguard your information when you visit our Site.
2. Information We Collect
PropCalc is a client-side tool. We do not require registration, login, or submission of personal data to use our calculators. However, certain information may be collected automatically:
- Usage Data: Pages visited, time spent, browser type, operating system, referring URLs and aggregate interactions with calculators — collected through Google Analytics 4 subject to the choices described below.
- Cookies: Small data files placed on your device by Google AdSense and Google Analytics 4 where permitted by your consent choices and applicable law.
- IP Address: Automatically logged by our hosting provider for security and analytics purposes.
We do not collect names, email addresses, financial details, or any personally identifiable information unless you voluntarily provide it via our Contact page.
3. How We Use Your Information

4. Google Services: Advertising and Analytics
PropCalc uses Google AdSense to display advertisements. Google AdSense uses cookies to serve ads based on your prior visits to our Site and other sites on the internet.
For visitors in the EEA, the United Kingdom and Switzerland, consent choices for advertising are presented through the Google Privacy & messaging European regulations message. This is the consent flow used for the Google AdSense and Google Analytics 4 tags on this Site; PropCalc does not maintain a separate local consent banner.
We use Google Analytics 4 to understand aggregate site performance, including page use, calculator category, selected market, interface language, shares and report exports. We deliberately do not send calculator input values, financial scenario results, contact-form content or URL query-string simulation details to Google Analytics.
You may opt out of personalised advertising by visiting Google Ads Settings. Alternatively, you can opt out via www.aboutads.info.
