Privacy Policy
Last updated: 6 June 2026
1. Controller
The controller responsible for data processing on this website is: Pixelbaum - Michael Tannenbaum Owner: Michael Tannenbaum Bergstraße 40 53332 Bornheim Germany Email: michael@carculated.com
2. Website Access and Hosting via Vercel
Carculated is hosted by Vercel Inc., 340 S Lemon Ave #4133, Walnut, CA 91789, USA. When you access the website, Vercel processes technically necessary access data so that the website, static files, serverless functions and security features can be delivered.
This access data may include, in particular, IP address, date and time of access, requested URL or file, referrer URL, browser and operating system information, transferred data volume, status codes and technical runtime data. The legal basis is Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR. Our legitimate interest is the reliable, secure and error-free operation of the website.
Vercel may also process data outside the European Union, in particular in the United States, and may use subprocessors. Where required, third-country transfers are protected by appropriate safeguards, in particular standard contractual clauses.
3. Calculator, Comparisons and Local Settings
Calculations generally run in your browser. To make the app usable, Carculated stores certain information locally on your device, in particular the cookie/consent decision, selected region, calculator mode and calculator parameters, dismissed notices as well as scenarios and settings for comparison mode.
This locally stored data is not automatically transmitted to us. If you create a result or share link, calculator parameters may be included as URL parameters in that link. Anyone who receives the link or processes it through an external service can see these parameters.
The legal basis is Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR. Our legitimate interest is to reliably provide the calculator, saved settings and comparison features. Where consent is required for individual storage access, processing is based on your consent under Section 25(1) TDDDG and Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR.
4. Vercel Web Analytics
We use Vercel Web Analytics only if you select “Accept all” in the consent banner or below on this page. Usage data such as page views, referrers, browser information, country or region, approximate technical location data and performance metrics may be processed.
The processing is used to improve Carculated and is not used for personalized advertising. The legal basis is your consent under Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR and, where applicable, Section 25(1) TDDDG. You can change or withdraw your consent at any time below on this page.
5. Service Worker and Browser Cache
Carculated may register a service worker to store app files locally and deliver the website faster or more reliably. This does not create additional user profiles. You can delete the cache and service worker through your browser settings.
6. Sharing Features and External Platforms
If you use sharing features, Carculated initially only generates a link in your browser. Only when you open an external service such as WhatsApp, X/Twitter, LinkedIn or your email client do you leave Carculated and the respective provider processes data under its own rules.
For dynamic previews, URL parameters and result data may be processed by Vercel Functions to generate a title, description and preview image.
7. Affiliate Links and Partner Programs
Carculated may use affiliate links to offers, dealers, leasing portals or partner programs, for example through Awin. Such links are marked contextually or integrated in a recognizable way.
Before you click an affiliate link, Carculated does not redirect you to the partner network. After the click, the destination provider or affiliate network may use tracking parameters, cookies or similar technologies to attribute the referral. The privacy notices of the respective third-party provider also apply to that processing.
8. Contact by Email
If you contact us by email, we process the data you provide in order to handle your request and clarify follow-up questions. This may include your email address, the content of your message and communication timestamps. The legal basis is Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR where your request relates to pre-contractual or contractual matters, and otherwise Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR.
9. Your Rights
Subject to the GDPR, you have in particular the right of access, rectification, erasure, restriction of processing, data portability and objection to processing based on Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR. Where processing is based on consent, you can withdraw that consent at any time with effect for the future.
You also have the right to lodge a complaint with a data protection supervisory authority. The competent authority for Pixelbaum - Michael Tannenbaum in North Rhine-Westphalia is the State Commissioner for Data Protection and Freedom of Information of North Rhine-Westphalia.
