Your answers

We do not store the answers you give the calculator. They are used to look up a row of published statistics and are then gone. There is no account, no database of visitors, and nothing tying a result back to you.

Your results link contains a reference to the statistical group you matched and the due date you entered, so that bookmarking it works. That link is only as private as wherever you save it — anyone you send it to sees the same page.

Ordinary server logs

Like every website, our host records basic technical information about requests: IP address, browser, timestamp and referring page. We use it to keep the site running and to understand which pages are useful. We don’t use it to identify individuals.

Analytics

We use Google Analytics to count visits and see which pages people find useful. It sets cookies and tells Google that a visit happened.

It is not told anything about your pregnancy. Your results address contains the group you matched and your due date, so we strip it before anything is sent: a results view is reported as “/results” and nothing more, and the survey as “/survey” without your answers. Google receives no due date, no indication of your age, education or background, and no hint of your baby’s sex.

You can opt out of Google Analytics entirely with Google’s browser add-on, and most browsers can block it too.

Advertising

This site is not currently showing advertising. If that changes, this page will describe what the ad provider collects before any ads appear.
