This Cookie Policy explains what cookies are, which cookie categories this site uses, and how you can manage or delete them. For how this site handles your calculator inputs and contact-form details, see our privacy policy.
What Cookies Are
Cookies are small text files that a website asks your browser to store on your device. When you return to the site, your browser sends them back, which lets the site remember things like your preferences or keep basic functions working.
Broadly, cookies fall into categories: strictly necessary cookies that keep a site working, preference cookies that remember your choices, and analytics or advertising cookies that measure visits or personalize ads.
How This Site Uses Cookies
Starbucks Calorie Calculator uses cookies in two categories. Strictly necessary site-function cookies keep basic site functions working, and preference cookies remember choices you make on the site so you do not have to repeat them.
No Analytics or Advertising Cookies Today
This site currently runs no analytics tools and no advertising. That means no analytics or advertising cookies run on this site today.
Your calculator inputs stay in your browser and are never collected, as explained in our privacy policy.
Future Analytics or Advertising
If this site ever introduces analytics tools or advertising, those tools may set their own cookies. This policy will be updated before any such use begins, and the update will describe the cookie categories in use and the choices available to you.
This matches the approach described in the future advertising and cookies section of our privacy policy.
Managing and Deleting Cookies
You can control cookies through your browser settings: most browsers let you delete existing cookies, block all cookies, or block cookies from specific sites.
If you block or delete cookies, some site features may not work as expected, because strictly necessary cookies are needed for basic functions. This site sets no analytics or advertising cookies, so there is no separate on-site opt-out control, your browser settings are the way to manage cookies here.
Questions About Cookies

Cookie Categories in Detail
Strictly necessary cookies are the ones the site cannot work without: they keep pages loading, keep the site secure, and make basic functions behave. Preference cookies remember choices you make during your visit so you do not have to repeat them.
Analytics cookies would measure visits and usage, and advertising cookies would personalize ads, this site sets neither, because it runs no analytics tools and no advertising. If that ever changes, this policy will be updated first, and the new categories will be described here before any such cookie is set.
Cookies and the Four Tools
Using the calorie calculator, nutrition calculator, caffeine calculator, or compare drinks does not require cookies and does not create a tracking record.
Your drink picks, sizes, milk choices, syrup pumps, and toppings stay in your browser’s memory while you use the tools and are never sent to our servers, there is nothing to tie them to you, because the site has no accounts and no sign-up. Blocking all cookies will not break the calculators, though it may reset simple preferences.
If Analytics or Advertising Ever Arrive
Today the answer is simple: there are none. If the site ever introduces analytics tools or advertising, this policy will be updated before anything is set, and the update will name the cookie categories involved and the choices available to you, the same promise our privacy policy makes in its Future Advertising and Cookies section.
Until then, the only cookies in play are the strictly necessary and preference categories described above, and your browser settings remain the single place to manage them.
No Consent Banner, and Why
Because this site sets no analytics or advertising cookies, there is no on-site consent banner or opt-out dashboard to look for, and none is needed. If advertising ever arrives, the industry opt-out routes described in our privacy policy, such as Google Ads Settings and the opt-out page at aboutads.info, would apply.
