HerpesChance provides informational calculators and content about HSV risk. We designed this site to minimize personal data collection.
We do not require account creation, and we do not intentionally store calculator inputs in a user profile. Standard server logs and security logs may temporarily include technical data such as IP address, user agent, requested URL, and timestamp.
Technical data is used for site operations, performance, abuse prevention, and troubleshooting. We do not sell personal data.
We use advertising and analytics partners, including Google. These services may use cookies or similar technologies to measure traffic, personalize ads, prevent fraud, and report performance.

We use a consent management platform to give you control over non-essential cookies. When you first visit the site, you will be presented with options to accept or decline advertising and analytics cookies. You can change your preferences at any time through the consent widget displayed on the site.
Some links on this site may be affiliate links. If you make a purchase through these links, we may earn a small commission at no extra cost to you. This helps support the site and allows us to continue providing free tools and content. Affiliate relationships never influence our editorial content, calculator results, or health information.
When you submit a contact form or bug report, we store your name, email address, category, message text, the page URL you submitted from, and your browser's user-agent string. This information is used only to respond to your inquiry and improve site quality.
If you submit a score in our browser game, your chosen display name and score are stored for the leaderboard. No other personal data is collected from the game.
Server logs are retained for a limited period for security monitoring and troubleshooting. Contact form and bug report submissions are retained for customer service purposes. Game scores are retained indefinitely. Session data is cleared when your browser session ends.
Third-party services integrated on this site may process data under their own privacy policies. Please review their terms directly.
