1. Information We Collect
ToolLoom does not require user registration or account creation. We do not intentionally collect personally identifiable information from users.
2. How Our Tools Work โ Browser-Only Processing
Every calculator and generator on ToolLoom runs entirely in your browser using JavaScript. When you use our EMI calculator, income tax calculator, password generator, BMI calculator, or any other tool, your inputs are processed locally on your device and the result is displayed directly in your browser.
No data is transmitted to our servers during tool use. There is no backend receiving your loan amount, salary, health information, or password preferences. The computation happens entirely on your device โ this is by design, not just a policy choice.
3. Advertising โ Google AdSense
ToolLoom uses Google AdSense to display advertisements. AdSense is operated by Google LLC (1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA). Advertising revenue is how we fund the platform and keep all tools permanently free.
How AdSense Works
Google AdSense uses cookies and similar tracking technologies to collect data about your browsing behaviour โ on ToolLoom and on other websites that use Google advertising services. This data is used by Google and its partners to serve advertisements that are relevant to your interests. This is called interest-based or personalised advertising.
What Google Collects
Through AdSense, Google may collect data including: pages you visit, your approximate location, your device and browser type, and your interactions with advertisements. Google combines this data with information from your other Google activity and from websites across the Google Display Network.
ToolLoom's Role
ToolLoom does not receive personally identifiable information from Google through AdSense. We receive only aggregate, anonymous performance data (impressions, clicks, estimated revenue). We do not control which specific ads are shown to you โ that is determined entirely by Google's systems based on your browsing history and Google's ad auction.
Opting Out
You can opt out of personalised advertising by visiting Google's Ads Settings. You can also opt out via the Network Advertising Initiative opt-out page. If you opt out, you will continue to see advertisements on ToolLoom โ they simply will not be personalised based on your browsing history.
| Service | Purpose | Data Collected | Opt Out |
|---|---|---|---|
| Google AdSense | Display advertising | Cookies, browsing behaviour, device info | adssettings.google.com |
| Google Analytics | Anonymous site analytics | Pages, session data, device type, region | GA Opt-out Add-on |
| Google Fonts | Typography delivery | IP address, browser (standard CDN request) | N/A |
4. Google Analytics
ToolLoom uses Google Analytics to understand how visitors interact with our website. Google Analytics is operated by Google LLC and collects anonymous usage data including: pages visited and time spent on each page, browser type and operating system, device type (mobile, desktop, tablet), approximate geographic location (country and city level โ not your precise location), and how you arrived at ToolLoom (search engine, direct, referral link).
This data is aggregated and anonymous. It cannot be used to identify you personally. We use it to improve the website โ understanding which tools are most useful, which content helps users, and where to focus development effort.
Google Analytics data is stored on Google's servers in accordance with Google's own data retention policies. You can opt out by installing the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on.
5. Cookies
ToolLoom itself does not set first-party cookies. However, Google Analytics and Google AdSense โ third-party services we use โ set cookies in your browser when you visit the site.
- Analytics cookies: Set by Google Analytics to track anonymous session information such as pages visited and session duration. These help us understand how the site is used.
- Advertising cookies: Set by Google AdSense to serve and optimise advertisements. These may include cookies that track your browsing behaviour across sites for ad personalisation purposes.
- Font delivery: Google Fonts may set a temporary cookie as part of the standard CDN request to deliver the fonts used on our site.
You can control or disable cookies through your browser settings. Most browsers allow you to view, manage, and delete cookies stored on your device. Disabling cookies may affect the functioning of Google's ad personalisation but will not affect your ability to use ToolLoom's calculators and tools.
6. Children's Privacy
ToolLoom's tools and guides are designed for general use and are suitable for users of all ages. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under the age of 13. Since we do not collect personal data directly from any users โ regardless of age โ children can safely use our calculators and read our guides.
Parents should be aware that Google AdSense displays advertisements on our site. Google has its own policies regarding advertising to minors. If you have concerns about ad personalisation for younger users, you can adjust settings at adssettings.google.com.
7. External Links
ToolLoom guides and tool pages contain links to external websites โ including RBI, SEBI, the Income Tax Department, ICMR, EPFO, PFRDA, CBSE, and other official Indian government sources. We link to these sources to support the accuracy of our content and allow users to verify figures directly.
We are not responsible for the privacy practices, security, or content of any third-party websites. Visiting a linked external site means you leave ToolLoom and are subject to that site's own privacy policy. We encourage you to review those policies before providing any personal information on external sites.
8. Your Rights
Because ToolLoom does not collect or store personal data directly, there is no user data held by us to access, modify, export, or delete on your behalf.
For data collected by Google through Analytics and AdSense, you can exercise your rights directly with Google using the following links:
- View and control your Google ad personalisation: myaccount.google.com/data-and-privacy
- Download your Google data: takeout.google.com
- Opt out of personalised ads: adssettings.google.com
- Opt out of Google Analytics: Google Analytics Opt-out Add-on
For users in the European Economic Area (EEA), data processing by Google is based on legitimate interests in providing relevant advertising and improving site performance. Where required by applicable law, consent may be requested for the use of cookies.

We encourage you to review this page periodically. Continued use of ToolLoom after any changes to this policy constitutes your acceptance of the updated terms.
