Privacy Policy

Last updated: September 20, 2026

1. Introduction

This Privacy Policy explains how TokensCalc.com ("TokensCalc", "we", "us", or "our") handles information in connection with this website.

TokensCalc provides browser-based tools for estimating AI token usage and comparing potential API costs. We aim to collect and use only information that is reasonably necessary to operate, secure, improve, and communicate about the website.

2. Information entered into the calculator

The main token calculator performs its basic estimation in the user's browser. Text entered into the calculator is processed locally by the calculator's JavaScript for the purpose of calculating an estimated token count.

The calculator does not need to send the entered prompt text to OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, or another AI model provider in order to perform the basic estimation described on the website.

Users should nevertheless avoid entering confidential, proprietary, personal, financial, authentication, or other sensitive information into any public website unless they have independently determined that doing so is appropriate.

3. Information collected automatically

Like many websites, TokensCalc may receive technical information associated with visits to the website. Depending on the services enabled on the site, this may include information such as IP address, browser type, device information, operating system, referring page, approximate geographic information, pages viewed, and timestamps.

This information may be used for security, abuse prevention, diagnostics, performance monitoring, analytics, and improving the website.

4. Cookies and similar technologies

TokensCalc may use cookies, local storage, or similar technologies where required to operate the website, remember preferences, measure website usage, provide security, or support advertising services.

Some third-party services may also use cookies or similar technologies in connection with their services.

5. Advertising and consent

TokensCalc may use Google AdSense to display advertisements on eligible pages of the website.

For visitors in the European Economic Area, the United Kingdom, and Switzerland, TokensCalc may display a Google-certified consent management message through Google's Privacy & messaging system. Where consent is required, the message allows users to make choices about the use of cookies, local storage, personal data, and personalized advertising.

Users can manage or change their consent choices through the consent controls made available on the website.

Google and its advertising technology partners may process information such as cookies, identifiers, IP addresses, and advertising-related signals according to applicable policies, user choices, and legal requirements.

6. Analytics and third-party services

We may use third-party analytics or website infrastructure services to understand general website usage, monitor technical performance, and identify errors.

Third-party providers process information according to their respective privacy policies and the services configured on this website.

7. Contact information

If you contact us by email, we may receive your email address, name if provided, message contents, attachments, and any other information you choose to provide.

We use this information to respond to your request, provide support, investigate issues, and maintain records of communications where reasonably necessary.

8. How information may be shared

We may share information with service providers that help us operate, secure, analyze, host, or improve the website.

We may also disclose information when required by law, to protect the security or integrity of the website, to investigate abuse or fraud, or when reasonably necessary to protect our rights and users.

9. Data retention

We retain information only for as long as reasonably necessary for the purpose for which it was collected, to provide the relevant service, to maintain security, to comply with legal obligations, or to resolve disputes.

10. Data security

We take reasonable technical and organizational measures to protect information handled through the website. However, no internet transmission or storage system can be guaranteed to be completely secure.

11. Your rights

Depending on your location and applicable law, you may have rights concerning personal information, including rights to request access, correction, deletion, restriction of processing, objection to certain processing, or data portability.
