Privacy Policy

Last updated: June 13, 2026.

RecoveryCalc ("we," "us," or "our"), a property of Cozy River Studios, operates recoverycalc.com (the "Site"). This policy explains what information we collect, how we use it, and the choices you have. By using the Site, you agree to this policy. If you do not agree, please do not use the Site.

Information we collect

  • Information you give us. If you subscribe to our email newsletter, we collect the email address you provide. Our calculators and the protocol builder run entirely in your browser — the values you enter (water temperature, session times, goals, and so on) are not sent to or stored by us.
  • Information collected automatically. Like most websites, we and our service providers automatically collect standard technical data: your IP address, browser and device type, pages visited, referring page, and approximate location (derived from IP). This is collected through cookies and similar technologies.

Cookies and tracking

Cookies are small files stored on your device. We and our partners use them for analytics, advertising, and to remember preferences. Most browsers let you refuse or delete cookies in their settings; some Site features may not work as well if you do.

How we use information

  • To operate, maintain, and improve the Site and its content.
  • To understand how visitors use the Site (aggregate analytics).
  • To send the newsletter you requested, and let you unsubscribe at any time.
  • To serve and measure advertising.
  • To detect, prevent, and address technical issues, fraud, or abuse.

Third-party services we use

Each of these has its own privacy policy governing the data it processes:

  • Google Analytics — website analytics. Google may use cookies to measure traffic and usage. See Google's Privacy Policy and opt-out.
  • Mediavine — our advertising partner. Mediavine and its advertising partners may collect and use data (including via cookies) to serve personalized ads. You can learn more and manage choices in the ad-options notice on our pages and in Mediavine's privacy documentation.
  • Amazon Associates — affiliate program. When you click an Amazon link, Amazon may set cookies to attribute any purchase to us. We earn a commission at no extra cost to you. See our affiliate disclosure.
  • Beehiiv — our email newsletter platform, which stores and processes your email address to deliver the newsletter.
  • Cloudflare — hosting and security/CDN, which processes request data to serve and protect the Site.

Advertising

Third-party vendors, including Google, use cookies to serve ads based on your prior visits to this and other websites. You can opt out of personalized advertising through aboutads.info/choices or the NAI opt-out.

Your privacy rights

Depending on where you live, you may have rights to access, correct, delete, or restrict the use of your personal information, and to opt out of the "sale" or "sharing" of personal information as defined by laws such as the EU/UK GDPR and the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA/CPRA). To exercise any of these rights, email us at the address below and we will respond as required by applicable law. You can unsubscribe from the newsletter at any time using the link in any email.

Children's privacy

The Site is intended for adults and is not directed to children under 13 (or under 16 where a higher age applies). We do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If you believe a child has provided us information, contact us and we will delete it.

Data retention and security

We retain information only as long as needed for the purposes described here or as required by law, and we use reasonable measures to protect it. No method of transmission or storage is 100% secure, so we cannot guarantee absolute security.

Health information disclaimer

RecoveryCalc provides general educational information about recovery practices. It is not medical advice and does not create a doctor-patient relationship. Always consult a qualified professional before starting cold, heat, or light therapy.

Changes to this policy

We may update this policy from time to time. The "last updated" date above reflects the most recent version. Material changes will be posted on this page.
