Privacy Policy
The short version. You don't need an account to use our tools. The numbers you type into our calculators and simulators are worked out in your browser and are not sent to us. Like most free sites, we use analytics and advertising partners that may use cookies. You can control those, and we explain how below.
This Privacy Policy explains how Vintage Allday LLC ("we", "us") handles information when you visit vintageallday.com and the other websites we operate, including EnergyLabPro, EVHomeEnergyGuide, ClearCreditGuide (together, the "Sites"). If a Site has its own privacy policy, that policy applies to that Site.
Information we collect
We keep data collection to a minimum. The information we may receive falls into three groups:
- Information you send us. If you email us, we receive your email address and whatever you include in your message. We use it to reply.
- Usage and device information. When you visit, our servers and analytics tools may automatically record things like your IP address, browser type, device type, pages viewed, referring page, approximate location (such as city or country) and the date and time of your visit.
- Cookie and advertising identifiers. Our analytics and advertising partners may set cookies or read similar identifiers on your device. See "Cookies" and "Advertising" below.
We do not ask you to create an account, and we do not knowingly collect sensitive information such as Social Security numbers, bank account numbers or payment card numbers. Please don't type that kind of information into our tools or send it to us by email.
Calculators, simulators and games
Our interactive tools are built to run in your web browser. The values you enter, such as a loan balance, a battery size or your answers in a game, are used to produce results on your device. We do not receive or store those values on our servers. Some tools may save your settings in your own browser (for example, with local storage) so they are there when you return. That information stays on your device, and you can clear it in your browser settings at any time.
How we use information
- To run, secure and maintain the Sites and fix problems.
- To understand which pages and tools people use so we can improve them.
- To show advertising that helps pay for free tools.
- To respond to messages and requests.
- To comply with legal obligations and to protect against fraud and abuse.
We do not sell your personal information in exchange for money.
Cookies and similar technologies
Cookies are small files stored on your device. We and our partners use cookies, local storage, pixels and similar technologies to keep the Sites working, measure traffic and serve and measure ads. You can block or delete cookies in your browser settings. If you do, parts of the Sites may work differently, and you may still see ads that are not personalized.
Advertising and affiliate links
Some of our Sites display ads from third-party advertising networks. These companies may use cookies and similar technologies to collect information about your visits to this and other websites, such as your IP address and the pages you view, in order to show ads that are more relevant to you and to measure how ads perform. These companies handle that information under their own privacy policies, not ours.
You can learn more about interest-based advertising and opt out of it through these resources:
- Digital Advertising Alliance choices
- Network Advertising Initiative opt-out
- Google Ad Settings
- On mobile devices, your phone's advertising settings (such as "Limit Ad Tracking" or "Personalized Ads").
Some links on our Sites may be affiliate links. If you click one and later make a purchase or sign up, we may earn a commission at no extra cost to you. The company you visit may use its own cookies to track that referral.
Who we share information with
We share information only as needed to run the Sites and our business:
- Service providers that host the Sites, deliver content, provide analytics or help us serve advertising, who may process information on our behalf.
- Advertising and affiliate partners, as described above.
- Legal and safety reasons, when we believe disclosure is required by law or needed to protect rights, safety or security.
- Business changes, such as a merger or sale of part of our business, in which case information may transfer to the new owner.
Your choices
- Block or delete cookies in your browser settings.
- Opt out of interest-based ads with the links in the advertising section.
- Turn on a browser or device privacy signal such as Global Privacy Control, where available.
- Email us to ask about, correct or delete information you sent us.
Privacy rights by region
California and other U.S. states
Depending on where you live, you may have the right to know what personal information we hold about you, to request that we delete or correct it, and to opt out of the "sale" or "sharing" of personal information for targeted advertising. Some advertising activity on websites can count as "sharing" under these laws, so you can opt out using the links above or by sending a Global Privacy Control signal. We will not treat you differently for using these rights. To make a request, email us at the address below. We may need to confirm your identity before acting on it.
European Economic Area, United Kingdom and Switzerland
If you are in these regions, you may have the right to access, correct, delete or restrict the use of your personal data, to object to its use, and to complain to your local data protection authority. Where we rely on consent, such as for advertising cookies, you can withdraw it at any time. We process data on the basis of our legitimate interest in running and improving the Sites, your consent, or legal obligations. Our Sites are operated from the United States, so your information may be processed there.
Children's privacy
Our Sites are meant for a general audience and are not directed to children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If you believe a child has sent us personal information, email us and we will delete it.
Security and retention
We use reasonable measures to protect the information we handle, including encrypted (HTTPS) connections. No method of transmission or storage is completely secure, so we cannot guarantee absolute security. We keep information only as long as needed for the purposes in this policy, unless the law requires us to keep it longer.
Changes to this policy
We may update this policy from time to time. When we do, we will change the "Last updated" date at the top. If a change is significant, we will make it easy to notice on the Sites.
