Cookie Policy
Which cookies the site and its partners may use, why, and how to control them.
Effective November 8, 2026.
What cookies are
Cookies are small text files that a website stores in your browser. They help a site remember settings, count visits, and show or measure ads.
Cookies and similar technologies on this site
The calculator itself does not use cookies, and it does not store your dog's details. I don't set cookies of my own. The cookies on this site come from third-party services.
Analytics cookies
| Cookie | Provider | Purpose | Lifespan |
|---|---|---|---|
| _ga | Google Analytics | Tells one visitor from another to count visits | Up to 2 years |
| _ga_ followed by an ID | Google Analytics | Keeps session state | Up to 2 years |
Advertising cookies
I may show ads from third-party advertising partners. These partners may set their own cookies or use similar identifiers to show ads, limit repeat ads, measure performance, and, where permitted, tailor ads to your interests. Their cookie names and lifespans vary by partner and may change, and I don't control them. Each partner's own policy explains what it collects.
Fonts
Fonts load from Google's servers. This sets no cookies, but Google receives your IP address with the request.
How to control cookies
You can block or delete cookies in your browser settings. Most browsers let you do this for every site or for one site. You can also install the Google Analytics opt-out add-on. To limit interest-based ads, use Google Ads Settings, the Digital Advertising Alliance opt-out, or the Network Advertising Initiative opt-out. If I show a consent banner, I'll honor your choice. The calculator still works if you block cookies.
