Privacy Policy
This policy describes the information that may be processed when you visit WorkHoursGuide and the choices available to visitors.
Overview
This Privacy Policy explains how WorkHoursGuide may collect, use, and disclose information when you visit or interact with the website. The exact technologies present on a page can change as the site is updated.
Information you enter into calculators
WorkHoursGuide calculators are designed to perform calculations in your browser. Inputs such as work hours, rates, break times, PTO values, or project hours are generally used to produce the requested result.
You should not enter sensitive personal information into calculator fields unless it is necessary for your own calculation. Calculator pages are not intended to collect Social Security numbers, government identification numbers, passwords, medical information, or payment-card data.
Information collected automatically
When you visit the site, technical information may be processed automatically by the website platform, analytics providers, advertising providers, security systems, or other service providers. This can include:
- IP address;
- browser type and version;
- device and operating-system information;
- approximate location derived from an IP address;
- referring and visited pages;
- timestamps and interaction information;
- cookies, similar identifiers, and performance/security data.
Blogger and Google services
WorkHoursGuide is hosted using Blogger, a Google service. Google may process technical information and use cookies or similar technologies to provide, secure, measure, and improve its services.
You can learn more in the Google Privacy Policy and Google's explanation of how Google uses information from sites or apps that use its services.
Analytics
WorkHoursGuide may use analytics services such as Google Analytics to understand aggregate site usage, diagnose problems, and improve pages. Depending on configuration and consent choices, analytics services may use cookies or similar identifiers and collect information such as session statistics, approximate location, browser, and device information.
Analytics data is used for measurement and site improvement and should not be used to send personally identifying calculator input to Google Analytics.
Advertising
WorkHoursGuide may display advertising, including ads served through Google AdSense. Third-party vendors, including Google, may use cookies or other technologies to serve, measure, and personalize ads based on a user's visits to this site and/or other websites, subject to applicable consent choices and settings.
Users can learn about or control Google ad personalization through Google Ads Settings.
Cookies and consent
Cookies can be used for site functionality, security, analytics, advertising, fraud prevention, and preferences. Where required by applicable law, consent choices may be presented before certain non-essential cookies or technologies are used.
Visitors can also control cookies through browser settings. Blocking some cookies may affect how parts of the website or third-party services function.
Advertising consent in the EEA, UK, and Switzerland
Where Google advertising products are used, consent mechanisms may be used to collect and communicate choices for visitors in regions where this is required. The website may use a consent management platform or Google-provided consent tools for this purpose.
Third-party links
WorkHoursGuide may link to external websites. Those sites have their own privacy practices, terms, and security controls. This Privacy Policy does not govern third-party websites.
How information may be used
Information may be used to:
- operate, maintain, secure, and troubleshoot the website;
- understand traffic and improve user experience;
- measure content and advertising performance;
- detect spam, abuse, fraud, or technical problems;
- respond to messages and privacy requests;
- comply with applicable legal obligations.
Data retention
Retention periods can differ depending on the type of information and the service provider involved. WorkHoursGuide aims to keep directly received information only as long as reasonably necessary for the purpose for which it was received, subject to legal, security, or operational requirements.
Your privacy choices and rights
Depending on where you live, you may have rights regarding personal information, such as requesting access, correction, deletion, restriction, objection, portability, or the ability to opt out of certain uses of data. Not every right applies in every jurisdiction or circumstance.
To submit a privacy request, use the Contact page. We may need enough information to understand and verify the request.
Children's privacy
WorkHoursGuide is a general-audience website and is not intentionally designed to collect personal information from children. If you believe a child has provided personal information through a direct communication channel, contact us so the issue can be reviewed.
Security
Reasonable steps may be used to reduce unauthorized access, misuse, or loss of information. However, no website or internet transmission can be guaranteed to be completely secure.

This policy may be updated when the site, service providers, or legal requirements change. The "Last updated" date on this page identifies the most recent revision.
