5. Medical Disclaimer

The information provided on BMI-IMC.com is for informational and educational purposes only. It does not constitute medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment. The BMI calculation results and health information presented on this website should not replace consultation with a qualified healthcare professional. Always seek the advice of your physician or other qualified health provider with any questions you may have regarding a medical condition.

BMI is a screening tool and has known limitations. It does not distinguish between lean body mass and fat mass, and may not be appropriate for athletes, pregnant women, elderly individuals, or growing children. The publisher accepts no liability for any health decisions made based on information provided on this website.

6. Privacy Policy

BMI-IMC.com respects your privacy and is committed to protecting the personal data of its users in compliance with the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR, Regulation EU 2016/679) and all applicable data protection legislation.

Health data: We do not collect, store, or transmit any personal health data entered into our BMI calculator. All calculations are performed locally in your web browser using JavaScript. No data (weight, height, age, gender) is sent to our servers or to third parties.

No cookies, no personal data: bmi-imc.com sets no cookies and the publisher records no personal data about its visitors. The only measurement is an anonymous, cookieless check of site stability (errors, loading times, clicks that do nothing) with Microsoft Clarity, with page content and input fields masked. Details, retention periods and how to object are given in the privacy policy.

Third-party services: This website loads Microsoft Clarity (Microsoft Ireland Operations Limited) in cookieless mode, and may load fonts from Google Fonts, which receives your IP address to send the font file.

7. Cookie Policy

This website sets no cookies at all: neither technical, audience, advertising nor social-media cookies, and Microsoft Clarity runs without its _clck, _clsk, MUID or CLID cookies. As there is nothing to accept or refuse, no cookie banner is shown. The BMI calculator keeps nothing on your device between visits.

8. Data Protection (GDPR)

In accordance with Articles 15 to 22 of the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), every user has the following rights regarding their personal data:

• Right of access (Art. 15): obtain confirmation of whether personal data concerning you is being processed and, if so, obtain a copy of that data.
• Right to rectification (Art. 16): obtain correction of inaccurate or incomplete personal data.
• Right to erasure (Art. 17, "right to be forgotten"): obtain deletion of personal data when the conditions provided by law are met.
• Right to restriction of processing (Art. 18): obtain restriction of processing in certain cases provided by law.
• Right to data portability (Art. 20): receive personal data in a structured, commonly used and machine-readable format, and transmit it to another controller.
• Right to object (Art. 21): object to processing of personal data on grounds relating to your particular situation.

Since the website does not collect personal data, these rights are currently not applicable in practice. However, for any request, clarification or exercise of the rights listed above, users may contact us at contact@bmi-imc.com. The publisher undertakes to respond within 30 days, as required by Article 12 of the GDPR. Users also have the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority.
