1. Introduction
Welcome to Cooking Gas Tracker. This Privacy Policy explains how information may be handled when you use the Cooking Gas Tracker website and mobile application (collectively, the “Service”).
We designed the Service to help users track cooking gas usage, estimate an expected consumption date, plan refills, and receive reminders. We aim to collect and use only information that is reasonably necessary to provide these features.
2. Information We Collect
Depending on how you use the Service, the following information may be processed:
| Information | Why it is used |
|---|---|
| Refill date | To help calculate and display your gas-tracking information. |
| Expected consumption date | To calculate reminders and help you plan your next refill. |
| Gas amount / cylinder size | To display and calculate information associated with the cylinder you track. |
| Gas price and currency | To display your refill information and spending-related information inside the Service. |
| Push notification token | To deliver push notifications when you enable notifications. |
| Device and technical information | Some technical information may be processed automatically by browsers, hosting providers, advertising providers, Firebase, or other third-party services when those services are used. |
The Cooking Gas Tracker application does not require you to create an account with us, and we do not intentionally ask you to provide information such as your password, government identification number, payment-card number, or precise physical location.
3. How We Use Information
Information processed by the Service may be used to:
- Calculate and display your expected gas-consumption date.
- Display your cylinder and refill information.
- Keep refill information available for your reference.
- Send scheduled push notifications when you have enabled notifications.
- Provide and maintain the website and application.
- Respond to support requests that you send to us.
- Protect the Service, troubleshoot problems, and maintain security.
- Display advertising on the website where advertising has been enabled.
4. Data Storage and Retention
Information used by the application may be stored locally on your device using the application's storage mechanisms. This can include refill dates, consumption dates, cylinder information, price information, preferences, and other tracker settings.
When push notifications are enabled, a notification token and information needed to schedule the notification may be processed through our notification infrastructure. The notification token is used to identify the device for notification delivery.
We retain information only for as long as reasonably necessary for the purpose for which it is used, to operate the Service, to maintain security, or to meet applicable legal obligations.
5. Third-Party Services
Cooking Gas Tracker uses third-party technologies to provide certain features. These providers may process information according to their own privacy policies and terms.
Firebase Cloud Messaging
The mobile application may use Firebase Cloud Messaging (FCM) to deliver push notifications. When notifications are enabled, a device notification token may be processed for this purpose.
Cloudflare Workers
The notification system may use Cloudflare Workers to process scheduled notification requests and deliver reminders when the application is not actively open. Information necessary for this function may include a notification token and expected consumption date.
Website hosting and infrastructure
The website may use third-party hosting, content delivery, security, or infrastructure services. Those providers may process standard technical information required to deliver web pages securely and reliably.
6. Cookies, Advertising and Google AdSense
The website may use cookies, local storage, or similar technologies for essential website functions, preferences, security, advertising, and related purposes.
Where Google AdSense or other advertising services are enabled, third-party vendors, including Google, may use cookies to serve advertisements based on a user's prior visits to this website or other websites. Google and its advertising partners may use advertising cookies to help serve personalized or non-personalized advertisements, depending on the user's choices, applicable settings, and legal requirements.
Google may use information such as cookies and similar identifiers to provide and measure advertising. Users can manage certain advertising personalization choices through Google Ads Settings.
Additional information about how Google uses advertising cookies is available in Google's advertising technologies information.
Other advertising providers or networks may also use cookies or similar technologies where they are enabled on the website. Their own privacy policies and opt-out mechanisms may apply.
Advertising consent
Where required by applicable law, we will request consent before using cookies, local storage, or personal data for advertising personalization. For users in the European Economic Area, the United Kingdom, and Switzerland, Google requires publishers serving personalized ads to use a Google-certified consent management platform integrated with the IAB Transparency and Consent Framework.
Our consent and advertising settings may change as the website's advertising features are enabled or updated. Users should review the consent choices presented on the website when applicable.
7. Data Security
We take reasonable technical and organizational measures to protect information handled by the Service against unauthorized access, alteration, disclosure, or destruction. However, no website, application, internet transmission, or storage system can be guaranteed to be completely secure.
8. Sharing of Information
We do not sell your personal information. We may disclose information to service providers when necessary to operate the Service, deliver notifications, provide hosting or security, display advertising, respond to lawful requests, prevent fraud or abuse, or protect the rights and safety of users and the Service.

Depending on your location and applicable law, you may have rights to:
- Ask what personal information we process about you.
- Request correction of inaccurate information.
- Request deletion of information where applicable.
- Withdraw consent where processing is based on consent.
