1. Client-Side Mathematical Processing
The core functionality of MathSpace is designed with privacy-first architecture. All mathematical calculations, dimension inputs, formula derivations, and step-by-step evaluations run entirely within your web browser using client-side JavaScript.
2. Browser Local Storage
MathSpace utilizes your web browser's standard localStorage API to enhance your experience across sessions:
-
Theme Preference (
mathspace_theme): Saves whether you prefer Dark Mode or Light Mode. -
Calculation History (
mathspace_history): Stores your recent calculations so you can easily reference previous equations in the slide-out history panel. - Calculation Settings: Saves default preferences such as π precision (e.g. 3.14159 vs 22/7) and default units.
This data is stored purely on your personal device and can be cleared at any time directly through the "Clear History" button in the history drawer or via your web browser's cache settings.
3. Information We Collect Automatically (Log Files)
Like virtually all web hosts, our hosting servers may automatically collect standard non-identifying server log information when pages are requested. This includes:
- Internet Protocol (IP) address
- Browser type and operating system
- Internet Service Provider (ISP)
- Date, time, and referring/exit pages
- Pages visited and click patterns
This information is used exclusively to maintain site availability, analyze technical trends, diagnose server issues, and prevent malicious DDoS attacks. It is not linked to any personally identifiable information.
4. Cookies, Analytics, and Web Beacons
MathSpace itself does not use tracking cookies for core functionality. However, third-party analytics or performance monitoring tools (such as Google Analytics or Cloudflare Web Analytics) may deploy standard cookies to measure aggregated visitor traffic and page performance.
You have the option to disable cookies entirely through your browser settings without impacting the mathematical accuracy of our calculators.
5. Advertising and Google AdSense
To keep MathSpace free and accessible for students and teachers worldwide, we may display third-party advertisements served by partners such as Google AdSense:
- Google, as a third-party vendor, uses cookies to serve ads on our site.
- Google's use of advertising cookies (such as the DART/DoubleClick cookie) enables it and its partners to serve ads based on prior visits to our site and other sites on the Internet.
- Visitors may opt out of personalized advertising by visiting Google's Ads Settings or by visiting www.aboutads.info.
6. Third-Party Services and External Assets
Our web pages load typography assets from Google Fonts (fonts.googleapis.com and fonts.gstatic.com). When downloading these fonts, your browser interacts with Google's servers in accordance with Google's overarching privacy policies.
7. Data Rights (GDPR & CCPA Compliance)
Depending on your geographic location, you may have specific privacy rights regarding personal data:
- Right to Access: You can request confirmation of whether any personal data concerning you is processed.
- Right to Rectification or Erasure: Because MathSpace does not maintain user accounts or remote personal databases, your primary data is stored locally in your browser and can be deleted instantly by clearing browser site data.
- Non-Discrimination: We do not discriminate against any user exercising their data protection rights.
8. Children's Online Privacy (COPPA)
Protecting the privacy of children is of paramount importance. MathSpace does not knowingly collect any personally identifiable information from children under the age of 13.
