Privacy Policy

Last updated: February 22, 2026

1. Who We Are

This privacy policy applies to Calculate Gas Mileage, accessible at mpgcalculators.com (the "Site"). The Site provides free online fuel economy calculators, a fuel cost calculator, educational blog content about gas mileage and fuel economy, and a frequently asked questions resource.

2. Information We Collect

2.1 Calculator Data

Our calculators—including the Gas Mileage Calculator, the Fuel Cost Calculator, the Fuel Miles Per Gallon Calculator, the Calculate Gas Cost for Trip tool, the Gas vs Electric Car Cost Calculator, the Commute Gas Cost Calculator, the Fuel Savings Calculator, the Cost Per Mile Calculator, the Fuel Tank Range Calculator, and the Carpool Savings Calculator—operate entirely in your browser using client-side JavaScript. The numbers you enter (odometer readings, trip distances, fuel amounts, gas prices) are processed locally on your device and are never transmitted to our servers. We do not store, log, or have access to any data you enter into our calculators.

2.2 Automatically Collected Information

When you visit the Site, certain technical information may be collected automatically through cookies and similar technologies:

• Google Analytics: We use Google Analytics (measurement ID: G-ZXFDXHLYLJ) to understand how visitors use the Site. Google Analytics collects anonymous, aggregated data such as pages visited, time on site, referring URLs, browser type, device type, screen resolution, and approximate geographic location (city/country level). This data is used solely to improve the Site's content and user experience. Google Analytics uses cookies to distinguish unique visitors. You can opt out of Google Analytics by installing the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on.
• Server logs: Our web hosting provider (Bluehost) may automatically log standard request information, including your IP address, browser user-agent, requested URLs, and timestamps. These logs are used for security and server maintenance purposes and are managed under Bluehost's own privacy policy.

2.3 Information We Do NOT Collect

We want to be clear about what we do not do:

• We do not require user accounts, registration, or login
• We do not collect names, email addresses, phone numbers, or other personal contact information
• We do not collect payment or financial information
• We do not track individual calculator inputs or results
• We do not use fingerprinting or cross-site tracking technologies beyond Google Analytics

3. Cookies

The Site uses a limited number of cookies:

• Google Analytics cookies (_ga, _ga_*): Used to distinguish unique visitors and track anonymous usage patterns. These cookies expire after 2 years of inactivity.
• Third-party advertising cookies: Our advertising partner, Adsterra, and its demand partners may set cookies to serve relevant ads and measure ad performance. These cookies are governed by Adsterra's privacy policy and the policies of its demand-side partners.

You can control or delete cookies through your browser settings. Blocking cookies will not affect the functionality of our calculators, as they operate without cookies.

4. Third-Party Advertising

The Site displays advertisements provided by Adsterra, a third-party advertising network. Adsterra and its demand partners may use cookies, web beacons, or similar technologies to collect information about your visits to this and other websites in order to serve relevant advertisements and measure ad performance. We do not control the data collection practices of Adsterra or its advertising partners.

We maintain an ads.txt file in accordance with the IAB Tech Lab Authorized Digital Sellers standard. This file publicly declares which advertising systems are authorized to sell our ad inventory, helping to prevent ad fraud and unauthorized reselling.

5. Third-Party Links

Our blog articles and educational content contain links to external websites and resources, including government agencies (EPA, FuelEconomy.gov), automotive publications, community forums (Reddit), and other reference sources. These links are provided for informational purposes only. We are not responsible for the privacy practices or content of these third-party sites, and we encourage you to review their privacy policies before providing any personal information.

6. Images and Assets

All images, including the site logo and blog images, are hosted directly on the Site at mpgcalculators.com. No external image hosting services are used. Adsterra ad creatives may load images from Adsterra's content delivery network as part of ad serving.

7. Children's Privacy

The Site is not directed at children under 13 years of age, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If you believe a child has provided personal information to us, please contact us so we can take appropriate action.

8. Data Security

The Site is served over HTTPS (TLS encryption) to protect the integrity and confidentiality of data transmitted between your browser and our server. Since our calculators process data entirely in your browser and we do not collect personal information through our tools, there is minimal data security risk associated with using the Site.

9. Your Rights

Depending on your jurisdiction, you may have rights regarding your personal data, including:

• The right to know what personal data is collected about you
• The right to request deletion of your personal data
• The right to opt out of the sale or sharing of your personal data
• The right to opt out of targeted advertising

Since we do not collect personal information through our tools and only use anonymous analytics, the most relevant action you can take is to opt out of Google Analytics using the browser add-on linked above, or to manage cookie preferences through your browser settings.

10. California Residents (CCPA)

If you are a California resident, you have additional rights under the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA). We do not sell personal information. The anonymous analytics data collected via Google Analytics does not constitute "personal information" as defined by the CCPA. You may still exercise your right to opt out of analytics tracking using the methods described in this policy.

11. European Visitors (GDPR)

If you are visiting from the European Economic Area (EEA), the legal basis for processing anonymous analytics data is our legitimate interest in understanding Site usage to improve our content and services. You may opt out of this processing at any time by disabling cookies or using the Google Analytics opt-out add-on.

12. Changes to This Policy

We may update this privacy policy from time to time to reflect changes in our practices, technology, or legal requirements. When we make changes, we will update the "Last updated" date at the top of this page. We encourage you to review this policy periodically.
