Privacy Policy
Smoker Time Calculator is a single-purpose planning tool for BBQ cooks. We collect only the data required to operate a fast, trustworthy experience and we explain each data source so you can decide what is right for you.
Information We Collect
We rely on Google Analytics 4 to understand how people use the calculator. GA4 records pages visited, time on site, general location (city-level), device type, and technical information such as browser version. We do not collect names, phone numbers, or email addresses unless you contact us directly and voluntarily share that information.
Cookies & Advertising
We use Google AdSense to display advertisements. Google and its partners use cookies to serve ads based on your prior visits to this website and other sites on the Internet. Google’s use of advertising cookies enables it and its partners to serve ads to you based on your visit to our site. You may opt out of personalized advertising by visiting Google’s Ad Settings or aboutads.info.
Analytics
GA4 helps us spot broken screens, slow performance, and the cuts people care about most. We view the data in aggregate and do not attempt to identify individual visitors. IP addresses are anonymized before storage and we do not combine analytics data with any external data source.
Third-Party Links
The site occasionally links to smoker manufacturers, thermometer guides, or USDA resources. Once you leave SmokerTimeCalculator.com, their privacy practices apply. Review their policies before sharing any information.
Children’s Privacy
This service is built for adults planning backyard cooks. We do not knowingly collect information from children under 13 and will delete any such data if we learn about it.
Changes to This Policy
When we update this page we post the revision date above. Major changes — like enabling a new analytics tool — will be highlighted in-product so you can review them before continuing.
