Privacy

How information is handled when you use this website or contact support.

Updated October 27, 2026

Calculator inputs

The calculator runs in your browser. The free calculator does not send the pay rates, hours, costs, or quotes you enter to a server. Online account saving in the separate workspace works differently, as described below. Cost downloads and printable estimates are generated on your device.

Saving on your device

Choosing “Save inputs” stores calculator values in your browser’s local storage. “Reset example” clears those saved calculator inputs. Your browser may also let you clear site data. Browser storage can be deleted or unavailable; keep your own copies of anything you need.

Templates and device workspace

Templates can save customer names, vehicle details, notes and messages in this browser when you choose Save. Use “New / clear draft” before another customer. The device workspace stores business details, a resized logo, customer and job records, supplies, stock movements and expenses in local storage. It does not send these records to our account database unless you use online account saving. Downloaded backups contain those records; store them privately. Shared devices and browser extensions may expose saved information. Clearing site data removes local records.

Email account beta

When you sign in, your email address is sent to Supabase for authentication and Brevo for login email delivery. Your sign-in session is stored on your device. Account workspaces are stored in our Sites Cloudflare database and associated with your authenticated account. Records are retained while the account is active; request account-data deletion by emailing support. We do not use your customer records for marketing analytics. Export a backup before requesting deletion.

Customer estimate links

Creating a customer link stores a separate copy of the customer-facing estimate: your business details and logo, customer name, vehicle, included work, prices, tax, extras and terms. It excludes private notes, internal costs and supply records. Anyone with that private link can view the estimate. Pending links expire after 30 days or when replaced. An approval stores the entered name, selected extras, price and time. Approved copies are retained as part of your account records. Sharing a link is your choice; the site does not automatically email it.

Technical website information

The site uses Cloudflare hosting and is also published through Sites. Hosting providers may process technical information such as your IP address, requested pages, and browser details to deliver and secure the website. The site offers optional first-party activity measurement. It does not use advertising pixels, session recordings, or a mailing-list form. The owner dashboard and customer workspace are separate sign-in services.

Read Cloudflare’s privacy policy for information about its services. The site uses system fonts and does not request fonts from a third-party font service.

Optional website analytics

Analytics are off until you choose “Allow analytics.” Declining does not limit the calculator. We honor Global Privacy Control and the browser Do Not Track signal. Use “Analytics preferences” in the footer to change your choice.

When allowed, we count predefined actions such as page views, calculator use, estimate openings, and template previews. We record only an approved page path, day, broad marketing source, approved campaign/content label, and a random identifier for a browser-tab session lasting up to 30 minutes. We do not collect calculator values, customer information, free text, full referral URLs, advertising IDs, IP addresses in our analytics database, or screen recordings. Hosting providers still process technical request information.

Your analytics choice is saved on this device; the short-lived analytics session is kept in session storage. The private dashboard reports the latest 30 days. Older activity is excluded from reports, and expired records are removed as new events arrive. If the service is inactive, older records may remain until it receives new activity. Declined visits and browser blocking mean these counts are incomplete. Data is processed using the Sites hosting infrastructure and its Cloudflare database.

When paid checkout is enabled, an approved marketing source and campaign label may be passed to Lemon Squeezy with your consent. The private sales report will store order identifiers, amounts, refunds, dates and those labels; it will not copy customer names, email addresses, postal addresses or payment details into analytics. Sales records are retained for business reconciliation. Contact support about access or deletion requests.

Support correspondence

If you email support@detailingcostbook.com, your email address and message are used to respond and handle your support request. Correspondence is handled through Proton Mail. Avoid including customer records or sensitive information. You can contact the same address to request deletion of support correspondence, subject to any applicable recordkeeping requirements.

Payments

There is currently no checkout or payment form on this website. This notice will be updated before paid sales begin to explain any payment-provider information flows.

App usage counts

If you allow analytics, we count actions such as saving a job, starting a timer and creating an estimate link. We do not send customer details, work notes, payment links, amounts or time entries to analytics. Counts are limited to one event of each kind per page and session; they are not a full recording of your activity. You can decline or change your choice using Analytics preferences.
