Privacy Policy

Effective date: 2026-08-26

Who we are

TOOOLBOX is a public information and decision-tool network centered at tooolbox.com. The parent site publishes tool documentation, source information, field guides, and company policies. Interactive services may operate on TOOOLBOX subdomains, including the current live tools listed on the Tools page. You can contact us at lostlastlove@gmail.com.

Parent-site pages and interactive tools

Reading a methodology page on tooolbox.com is different from entering assumptions into an interactive calculator. The parent site explains how each tool works and links to the live workspace. When a live tool asks you to enter salary, rent, financing, location, housing, or other scenario information, review the disclosures shown within that service as well. A service-specific notice may provide additional information about the data flow used by that tool.

Information you provide

If you email us, we may receive your email address, name, message content, and any details you choose to include. We use that information to respond, review corrections, and improve site content. Do not send passwords, payment credentials, government identification numbers, or other information that is unnecessary for the request.

Cookies, logs, and analytics

TOOOLBOX pages may use basic hosting logs, browser cookies, and analytics tools to understand traffic, diagnose technical issues, and improve pages. If Google Analytics is configured, Google may process usage information such as page views, device/browser information, referring pages, and approximate location based on network data.

Affiliate links

Gear Dispatch pages may link to Amazon with affiliate tracking parameters. Amazon and other third-party sites may process information about your visit after you leave tooolbox. Those sites have their own privacy practices.

Google AdSense

The site has publisher account settings for pub-1923048376125383, but display ads are not currently shown on every page. If Google AdSense is enabled, Google and other third-party vendors may place or read cookies and use web beacons, IP addresses, device identifiers, and similar technologies to serve, limit, personalize, and measure ads. These vendors may receive information about visits to this site and other sites. Learn how Google uses data on partner sites at policies.google.com/technologies/partner-sites. Where required, a Google-certified consent management platform will ask for advertising choices before personalized ads are served. Advertising does not change the methodology or editorial standard used for tool documentation and guide content.

Official sources and third-party links

TOOOLBOX links to government agencies, public-data services, maps, and other external references so readers can inspect source context. Those external sites have their own privacy practices. The fact that a source is linked does not mean TOOOLBOX controls how that external service collects or uses information.

Data retention

We keep contact messages only as long as useful for response, correction history, or ordinary site administration. You may request deletion of a message you sent by contacting us from the same email address. Retention rules for an interactive tool, if different, should be described within that service's own disclosure.

Changes

We may update this policy as the tool network, analytics, advertising, or data flows change. The effective date at the top of this page shows the latest published version.
