Privacy policy
Last updated July 2026.
Calculator data
Every calculator on PublishCalc runs entirely in your browser using JavaScript. The numbers you type into a calculator — list price, page count, word count, and so on — are processed locally on your device and are not transmitted to, or stored on, any PublishCalc server.
No account required
PublishCalc does not require you to create an account, log in, or provide an email address to use any calculator on this site.
Analytics
Like most websites, PublishCalc may use privacy-respecting analytics to understand which pages are visited and how the site performs, so we can improve it over time. Analytics data is aggregated and is not used to identify you individually.
Advertising
PublishCalc intends to display advertising, including through services such as Google AdSense, to support running the site for free. Advertising providers may use cookies or similar technologies to serve relevant ads. You can control ad personalization through your browser settings or the ad provider's own opt-out tools.
Affiliate links
Some links on this site may be affiliate links, meaning PublishCalc may earn a small commission if you make a purchase after clicking through, at no extra cost to you. This does not affect the estimates produced by any calculator.
Cookies
This site does not use cookies for calculator functionality. Cookies set by analytics or advertising services, if enabled, are governed by those services' own privacy policies.
Children's privacy
PublishCalc is intended for adult authors and publishing professionals and is not directed at children under 13.
