This Privacy Policy explains how SmartNest ("SmartNest," "we," "us," or "our") collects, uses, and shares information when you visit smartnest-life.com (the "Site"). By using the Site, you agree to the practices described in this policy.
Information We Collect
SmartNest's calculators run entirely in your browser — the numbers you enter into a calculator (square footage, material choice, region, etc.) are processed locally on your device and are not transmitted to or stored on our servers. We do not require account creation, and we do not collect names, addresses, or payment information because the Site does not sell anything or require sign-up.
Like most websites, we may automatically collect limited technical information when you visit, such as your approximate location (derived from IP address), browser type, device type, pages visited, and referring URLs. This information is typically collected in aggregate through analytics and advertising tools described below, and is used to understand site usage and improve the Site.
Cookies and Similar Technologies
Cookies are small text files stored on your device that help websites remember information about your visit. SmartNest may use cookies and similar technologies (such as local storage) for:
- Site functionality — remembering basic preferences as you navigate the Site.
- Analytics — understanding how visitors use the Site so we can improve it.
- Advertising — delivering and measuring ads, described in more detail below.
You can control or delete cookies through your browser settings. Most browsers let you block cookies entirely or delete existing cookies, though doing so may affect how some parts of the Site function.
Google AdSense and Third-Party Advertising
SmartNest may display advertisements served by Google AdSense and other third-party advertising networks. These third parties may use cookies, web beacons, and similar technologies to collect information about your visits to this and other websites in order to provide advertisements about goods and services that may be of interest to you.
Google uses advertising cookies (such as the DoubleClick cookie) to serve ads based on your prior visits to this website and other websites on the Internet. Google's use of advertising cookies enables it and its partners to serve ads based on your visit to our Site and/or other sites.
You may opt out of personalized advertising by visiting Google Ads Settings:
https://adssettings.google.com
For more information about how Google uses information from sites or apps that use its services, and about the cookies used by Google and its partners across the web, visit:
https://policies.google.com/technologies/partner-sites
Additionally, you can opt out of many third-party advertising networks' use of cookies for personalized advertising by visiting the Digital Advertising Alliance's opt-out page at optout.aboutads.info, or the Network Advertising Initiative's opt-out page at optout.networkadvertising.org.
Analytics
We may use third-party analytics services (such as privacy-respecting or standard web analytics tools) to help us understand how visitors use the Site. These services may use cookies and collect information such as pages viewed, time spent on the Site, and general geographic location. This data is used in aggregate and is not used to personally identify individual visitors by SmartNest.
Your Choices
You have several options for managing your privacy on the Site:
- Browser settings. Most browsers allow you to block or delete cookies, and to browse in a private/incognito mode that limits tracking.
- Ad personalization settings. Use Google Ads Settings to control how Google personalizes ads for you.
- Do Not Track. Some browsers offer a "Do Not Track" signal; because there is no industry-standard way to respond to these signals, our Site does not currently respond to them differently.
Children's Privacy
The Site is intended for a general audience and is not directed at children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If you believe a child has provided us with personal information, please contact us so we can address it.
Data Security
We take reasonable measures to protect information related to the Site, but no method of electronic storage or transmission is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.
Changes to This Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes in our practices or for legal, operational, or regulatory reasons. We will post the updated policy on this page with a revised effective date.
