Nothing. Pet Cost HQ does not require accounts, does not run contact forms, and does not collect names, email addresses, or any personal information. Every calculator on this site runs entirely in your browser — the numbers you enter never leave your device and are never sent to our servers.
We do not set cookies ourselves, but Google Analytics (see Analytics below) sets cookies to measure site usage. We also use Google AdSense to serve ads on this site. Google may use cookies (including the DoubleClick cookie) to serve and measure ads, including personalized ads based on your visits to this and other sites. You can learn how Google uses cookies for advertising at https://policies.google.com/technologies/ads. Their use of cookies is governed by their own privacy policies.
We use Google Analytics 4 to understand how visitors use this site (for example, which calculators are popular). Google Analytics sets cookies (such as _ga) and collects information about your device, browser, and approximate location. We do not see or store your IP address. You can opt out of Google Analytics with Google's opt-out browser add-on: tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout.
