Introduction
Welcome to Aftcalculator.co (“we,” “us,” “our”). We are committed to protecting your privacy and being transparent about how we handle your information. This Privacy Policy outlines our practices concerning the collection, use, and disclosure of information when you use our website and its services (the “Service”).
Our goal is to provide a simple, effective, and secure tool for calculating Army Fitness Test (AFT) scores. This policy is designed to give you a clear understanding of what data we collect, what we don’t collect, and why. By using Aftcalculator.co, you agree to the collection and use of information in accordance with this policy.
This website is owned and operated by Jim Peterson. If you have any questions or concerns, please don’t hesitate to reach out to us at contact@aftcalculator.co.
Information We Collect
We believe in data minimization, which means we only collect the information that is absolutely necessary to provide and improve our Service.
Information You Do Not Provide (And We Do Not Store)
This is the most important section: We do not collect or store any of the personal fitness data you enter into the AFT calculator.
- The scores you input for the Maximum Deadlift, Hand-Release Push-Up, Sprint-Drag-Carry, Plank, and 2-Mile Run are processed exclusively within your web browser.
- This data is never sent to our servers, stored in a database, or linked to you in any way. Once you close or refresh the page, that information is gone.
- We do not ask for, collect, or store personal identifiers such as your name, rank, MOS, or unit information.
Information You Voluntarily Provide
The only way we collect personal information is when you directly provide it to us. This typically occurs when you:
- Contact Us via Email: If you send an email to contact@aftcalculator.co, we will collect your email address and any other information you choose to include in your message (such as your name or feedback). We use this information solely to respond to your inquiries, provide support, or act on your suggestions.
Information Collected Automatically (Log & Analytics Data)
Like virtually all websites, when you visit Aftcalculator.co, our servers automatically collect certain non-personally identifiable information. This helps us understand how our visitors use the site so we can improve it. This data includes:
- Log Data: Your Internet Protocol (IP) address, browser type and version, operating system, the pages you visit on our site, the time and date of your visit, the time spent on those pages, and other standard diagnostic data.
- Analytics Data: We use third-party services like Google Analytics to collect, monitor, and analyze this type of information in order to increase our Service’s functionality. This data is typically aggregated and anonymized, meaning it is not used to identify you personally. It helps us see trends, such as which features are most popular or where users are coming from.
How We Use Your Information
We use the limited information we collect for the following purposes:
- To Provide and Maintain Our Service: To ensure the calculator is functioning correctly and is available when you need it.
- To Improve Our Service: To analyze usage data to understand what works and what doesn’t, allowing us to enhance the user experience, fix bugs, and develop new features.
- To Communicate With You: To respond to your emails, answer your questions, and provide customer support.
- To Ensure Security: To monitor for and prevent fraudulent or malicious activity and to protect the integrity of our website.
We will never sell, rent, or trade your personal information with any third parties for marketing purposes.
Cookies and Tracking Technologies
We use cookies and similar tracking technologies to track activity on our Service and hold certain information.
- What are Cookies? Cookies are small files stored on your device (computer or mobile device) that hold a modest amount of data specific to a particular website and user.
- How We Use Them: We use cookies primarily for analytics purposes—to help us understand how you interact with our website. For example, a cookie from Google Analytics helps us distinguish you as a unique visitor (without knowing who you are) to gather statistics on site traffic.
- Your Choices: You have the right to decide whether to accept or reject cookies. You can instruct your browser to refuse all cookies or to indicate when a cookie is being sent. However, if you do not accept cookies, some parts of our website may not function as intended.
Third-Party Services
We may employ third-party companies and individuals to facilitate our Service, to provide the Service on our behalf, or to assist us in analyzing how our Service is used.
- Google Analytics: We use Google Analytics to track and report website traffic. Google uses the data collected to track and monitor the use of our Service. This data is shared with other Google services. You can opt-out of having your activity on the Service available to Google Analytics by installing the Google Analytics opt-out browser add-on. For more information on the privacy practices of Google, please visit the Google Privacy & Terms web page: https://policies.google.com/privacy
Data Security
The security of your data is important to us. We use commercially acceptable means to protect your information, including using SSL/TLS encryption (the “lock” icon in your browser) to secure data transmitted between your browser and our server. However, please remember that no method of transmission over the Internet or method of electronic storage is 100% secure. While we strive to use the best security practices, we cannot guarantee absolute security.
Children’s Privacy
Our Service is not directed to anyone under the age of 13. We do not knowingly collect personally identifiable information from children under 13. If you are a parent or guardian and you are aware that your child has provided us with personal information, please contact us. If we become aware that we have collected personal information from a child under 13 without verification of parental consent, we will take steps to remove that information from our records.
Links to Other Websites
Our Service may contain links to other websites that are not operated by us. If you click on a third-party link, you will be directed to that third party’s site. We strongly advise you to review the Privacy Policy of every site you visit. We have no control over and assume no responsibility for the content, privacy policies, or practices of any third-party sites or services.
Changes to This Privacy Policy
We may update our Privacy Policy from time to time. We will notify you of any changes by posting the new Privacy Policy on this page. We will also update the “Effective Date” at the top of this Privacy Policy. You are advised to review this Privacy Policy periodically for any changes. Changes to this Privacy Policy are effective when they are posted on this page.
