Privacy
Short version: we don't ask for your name, we don't have accounts, and your game scores stay on your own device. We count visits with Google Analytics, our ads come from Google, and Google uses cookies for both. Some product links go to Amazon, which uses cookies too. The details are below.

What we collect
I Love Caulk is a static website. There are no accounts, no sign-up forms, and no comment boxes, so we don't collect names, email addresses, or anything you type into the site. The Caulk Finder and the tube calculator run entirely in your browser; your answers are never sent to us.
What stays on your device
Our games (Bead Master, the crossword, and the quizzes) may save best scores and puzzle progress in your browser's local storage so you can pick up where you left off. That data never leaves your device, and clearing your browser's site data removes it.
Analytics
We use Google Analytics to see which pages people read and how they find us. It uses cookies to collect information such as the pages you visit, how long you stay, your approximate location, and your browser and device type. We see this only as totals and trends, not as anything tied to your name. See how Google uses information from sites that use its services. You can opt out with the Google Analytics opt-out browser add-on.
Advertising and cookies
We show ads from Google AdSense to pay for the site. Third-party vendors, including Google, use cookies to serve ads based on your prior visits to this website or other websites. Google's use of advertising cookies enables it and its partners to serve ads to you based on your visits to this site and/or other sites on the internet.
- You can opt out of personalized advertising from Google in Google's Ads Settings.
- You can opt out of some third-party vendors' use of cookies for personalized advertising at aboutads.info.
- Google explains how it uses information from sites that use its services.
Where the law requires consent for advertising cookies (for example in the European Economic Area, the UK, and Switzerland), consent is requested through Google's consent tools before personalized ads are shown.
Amazon affiliate links
I Love Caulk is a participant in the Amazon Services LLC Associates Program, an affiliate advertising program designed to provide a means for sites to earn advertising fees by advertising and linking to Amazon.com. As an Amazon Associate, I Love Caulk earns from qualifying purchases.
Links to Amazon are labeled on the page. When you click one, you leave this site, and Amazon may set cookies to record that the visit came from us. Nothing is sent to Amazon until you click. See Amazon's privacy notice.
Hosting
The site is hosted on GitHub Pages. Like most web hosts, GitHub may log technical information such as IP addresses to keep the service secure. See the GitHub privacy statement.
Children
The site is written for adults who own caulk guns. It isn't directed at children under 13, and we don't knowingly collect information from them.
