Privacy Policy

Welcome to EasyFPSCalculator.com . We are committed to protecting your privacy and being transparent about what we do with your information. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, and share your personal data when you use our website and FPS calculator tool (the “Service”).

By using our Service, you agree to the collection and use of information in accordance with this policy.

The Short, Simple Version (The TL;DR)

We care about your privacy. Our main goal is to provide you with accurate FPS estimates. To do this:

  • We don’t ask for your name, email, or personal details to use the calculator.
  • The hardware and game data you input (e.g., RTX 4070, Cyberpunk 2077) is used solely to generate your results and, in an anonymous, aggregated form, to help us improve our algorithm’s accuracy.
  • We use standard analytics tools (like Google Analytics) to understand how people use our site (e.g., which pages are popular). This data is anonymous.
  • We use cookies to make the site work properly and for analytics.
  • We never sell your data to anyone.

For the full details, please read on.

Information We Collect

We collect information in a few different ways:

a) Information You Provide Directly:

  • Calculator Inputs: When you use our FPS calculator, you provide information about hardware components (CPU, GPU), software (game title), and desired settings (resolution, graphics quality). This data is not linked to you personally.

b) Information Collected Automatically:

  • Log Data: When you visit our site, our servers may automatically record information that your browser sends (“Log Data”). This may include your computer’s Internet Protocol (“IP”) address, browser type and version, the pages of our Service that you visit, the time and date of your visit, the time spent on those pages, and other statistics.
  • Cookies and Similar Technologies: We use cookies and similar tracking technologies to track activity on our Service and hold certain information. Cookies are files with a small amount of data which may include an anonymous unique identifier.
    • Necessary Cookies: These are essential for the website to function (e.g., remembering your selections during a session).
    • Analytics Cookies: These help us understand how visitors interact with the website, anonymously. We use Google Analytics for this purpose.

c) Information from Third Parties:

  • Analytics Providers: We use third-party services like Google Analytics that collect, monitor, and analyze this type of information to increase our Service’s functionality and user-friendliness.

How We Use Your Information

We use the collected information for various purposes:

  • To Provide and Maintain the Service: To create your FPS estimate and display your results.
  • To Improve the Service: The anonymous, aggregated data from all calculations is incredibly valuable. It helps us train our algorithm, identify new hardware, add new games, and improve the accuracy of our predictions for everyone. For example, if we see thousands of people pairing an RTX 4060 with a Ryzen 5 7600X, we can ensure our data for that combo is rock-solid.
  • To Analyze and Understand Usage: To understand how users navigate and use our website so we can make it better (e.g., which blog posts are most helpful, if our UI is confusing, etc.).
  • To Communicate With You: If you have contacted us via a contact form or email, we will use your information to respond to you.

Legal Basis for Processing (For Our Users in the EEA/UK)

If you are from the European Economic Area (EEA) or the UK, our legal basis for collecting and using your information is:

  • Your Consent: For cookies that are not strictly necessary.
  • Legitimate Interests: For our use of your calculator inputs and Log Data to provide and improve our Service, as this processing does not override your fundamental rights and freedoms.
  • Performance of a Contract: To provide the Service to you.

How We Share Your Information

We do not and will not sell your personal data. We only share information in the following limited circumstances:

  • Service Providers: We may employ third-party companies and individuals to facilitate our Service (“Service Providers”), such as analytics providers. These third parties have access to your information only to perform these tasks on our behalf and are obligated not to disclose or use it for any other purpose.
  • Aggregated & Anonymized Data: We may share aggregated, anonymized data that cannot be used to identify you. For example, we might publish a report stating that “the RTX 4060 is the most commonly searched-for GPU on our site in Q1 2024.”
  • Legal Requirements: We may disclose your information if required to do so by law or in response to valid requests by public authorities (e.g., a court or a government agency).

Your Data Protection Rights

Depending on your location, you have certain rights regarding your personal information:

  • The right to access the personal information we hold about you.
  • The right to rectification if your information is inaccurate or incomplete.
  • The right to erasure (the “right to be forgotten”) of your personal data.
