Privacy Policy

Last updated: 2026-05-03

Introduction

This privacy notice explains how fence-stain-coverage-planner.hub2.day (“StainCalc,” “the site,” or “we”) handles information when you use the StainCalc: Fence & Deck Stain Coverage Planner. The site is a focused, independent web utility that helps homeowners estimate how much stain or sealant they may need for a fence or deck based on dimensions, wood type, and product coverage rates.

We aim to keep data practices simple and transparent. This notice covers browser-local inputs, contact email, server and security logs, cookies and local storage, advertising, and related service providers.

Information We Collect

The planner works primarily in your browser. Dimensions, wood type, product coverage rates, and similar planning values you enter are used to calculate estimates. These inputs are processed locally in your browser and are not automatically transmitted to our servers or stored by us unless you explicitly choose to share them (for example, by contacting us with a question about a calculation).
