Privacy Policy

1. Information We Collect & Client-Side Processing

Our calculator tools operate 100% locally inside your browser runtime. Dates of birth, target reference dates, gestational ages, weight, height, tape circumference measures, and developmental score inputs are computed in client-side JavaScript memory and are never uploaded, transmitted, or stored on remote servers or databases.

We may collect:

• Voluntary Public Reviews & Ratings: Display name, star rating, review text, submission timestamp, and mandatory email address submitted for ownership and anti-spam verification.
• Information you send to us by email, including your name, email address, and message.
• Technical information automatically provided by your browser, such as IP address, browser type, device type, operating system, pages visited, date and time of visit, referral source, and approximate location inferred from IP address.
• Cookie and similar-technology information used for website functionality, security, analytics, and advertising.
• Preferences stored locally in your browser, such as theme settings or saved calculator profiles.

2. Review Moderation, Email Verification & Anti-Spam Policy

To maintain the integrity, safety, and authenticity of community reviews across iAgeCalculator, we implement an automated Review Moderation & Verification System:

• Mandatory Email Requirement: To prevent automated spam scripts, review stuffing, and malicious submissions, every reviewer must provide a valid email address upon submission.
• Real-Time DNS MX & Deliverability Validation: Email addresses undergo automated real-time Domain Name System (DNS MX) queries via Cloudflare DNS to ensure the domain exists and has active mail servers. Disposable, throwaway, and burner email providers (e.g., Mailinator, 10MinuteMail, TempMail) and known placeholder local parts are automatically rejected.
• 1-Click Human Verification & Anti-Spam Protection: Submissions require an interactive human integrity check and honeypot validation to ensure genuine, non-automated feedback without email intrusion.
• Content Moderation & Safety Standards: Submissions undergo automated text analysis to filter profanity, abusive or hateful speech, promotional external links, phishing URLs, personal phone numbers, and prompt injection manipulation. Reviews that express constructive critique or positive mathematical feedback are fully permitted.
• Rate Limiting & 3-Minute Cooldown: To protect our servers and community from flood attacks, users are subject to a 3-minute cooldown period between review submissions and a maximum daily cap of 3 reviews per 24 hours per user.
• Strict Privacy & Masked Audit Trails: Reviewer email addresses are strictly never displayed publicly. Any internal security audit records store only masked identifiers (e.g., a***@gmail.com, M**** K****) alongside timestamps.
