Privacy Policy

Last updated: 14 June 2026

This policy explains what information HowMuchToRun collects and how it is used. We aim to keep this simple and honest.

Information we collect

Our calculators run entirely in your browser — the numbers you type are not sent to or stored on our servers. We do not require an account and do not ask for personal information to use the site.

Cookies and advertising

We use cookies and similar technologies for basic analytics and to display advertising. This site shows ads served by Google, including through Google AdSense.

Third-party vendors, including Google, use cookies to serve ads based on a user's prior visits to this website and other websites. Google's use of advertising cookies enables it and its partners to serve ads to you based on your visit to this site and/or other sites on the internet. You can learn how Google uses data when you use our partners' sites or apps by reading How Google uses information from sites or apps that use our services.

You can opt out of personalized advertising by visiting Google Ads Settings. For ads from other vendors, you may opt out of personalized advertising at aboutads.info or, in the EU, at youronlinechoices.eu.

If you are visiting from the European Economic Area, the United Kingdom or Switzerland, we and Google rely on your consent for the use of advertising cookies. Where required, you will be asked for consent before personalized ads are shown, and you can change or withdraw it at any time.

Affiliate links

Some outbound links are affiliate links. When you click them, the destination site (for example Amazon) may set its own cookies. See our affiliate disclosure for details.

Your choices

You can disable cookies in your browser settings at any time. Because the calculators are client-side, the core features of the site continue to work without cookies.
