Contact FootyCalc
Bug report, feature idea, partnership question, or legal notice. Every message is read by the person who runs the site, and the fastest route is plain email.
Last reviewed:Email & Mailing Address
The most reliable route is email, because it works no matter what our form does in your browser:
[email protected] — put the page URL in the subject line if your message is about a specific calculator.

Send Us a Message (Form)
The form below has no server behind it. On submit it hands the fields to your own mail client as a drafted
mailto: message. Per the HTML specification, a form with a mailto: action and GET is
handled as "mail with headers", so your client receives the address, subject and field values — what it then pre-fills
varies by client, and if you have no mail client configured nothing visible will happen. If that is you, email
[email protected] directly instead.
What This Form Does With Your Information
- Nothing is sent to, stored on, or processed by a FootyCalc server, because there is no form endpoint. The fields are
serialised by your browser into a
mailto:URL and handed to your mail client. - Fields are marked required because a message with no reply address and no content cannot be answered — we have no account system or ticket ID to fall back on.
- We hold your name and email only once you actually send us an email, and then only as ordinary mail: for answering you, and for as long as the thread stays in our mailbox. See the Privacy Policy.
- Nothing you type is logged if you abandon the form. Abandoned drafts never leave your device.
What to Include in a Bug Report
- Which page you were on — paste the URL.
- Which shape or tool, and the exact input values.
- The result you expected and the result you saw, with the arithmetic if you have it. A message like "12 × 12 should be 144 and it showed 144.00" is useful precisely because it is checkable.
- Your browser and device (e.g., "Chrome 129 on Windows 11" or "Safari on iPhone 15").
Arithmetic and formula errors outrank everything else in our queue, because a wrong number on a calculator page is the one thing this site must not be.
Partnership & Advertising
For advertising beyond Google AdSense (direct sponsorships, product integrations), email us with "Partnership" in the subject line and include: company name, product category, intended placement, and campaign duration. We keep ad placement separate from the calculator itself, so please do not propose anything that makes an ad look like a result. Embed requests are usually self-service instead: the snippet and its options are documented at /developers/embed-calculator/.
Reply Target — Not a Contractual SLA
Our aim is to reply within 1–2 business days, Alaska time. That is a target we set for ourselves, not a guarantee, and it is consistent with the Terms of Service, which state the service comes without warranties. We say this openly because we have no ticketing system that would make a measured SLA meaningful — the same reason our guides index refuses to publish response-time statistics.
Worked Example: Sending a Copyright Notice
FootyCalc publishes its own text and its own calculators, so copyright claims are rare here — but the route exists and it costs you one email. Suppose a rights holder believes a page reproduces their figure. Here is the path we would actually follow:
- Email to [email protected] with "DMCA" in the subject line, or mail a signed notice to the postal address above.
- Include the four things the statute asks for: identification of the copyrighted work, the URL on our site where it allegedly appears, your contact details, and a statement of good-faith belief that the use is unauthorized (see 17 U.S.C. § 512 as summarized by the U.S. Copyright Office in the source list below).
- We act on the material, not on the argument. The item is removed or disabled first, then the sender is told what was done, and the decision is logged with the page's review date so the change is visible on the page.
- No registered agent is claimed. We are a single-operator site; we do not assert a DMCA designated-agent registration in the Copyright Office directory, and this page should not be read as claiming one.
Legal Notices Other Than Copyright
For privacy requests (access, correction, deletion, or opt-out under GDPR/CCPA) use the same address — the Privacy Policy explains what we can actually produce, which is very little, since calculations never reach us.
Sources and How to Check This Page
- U.S. Copyright Office — The Digital Millennium Copyright Act (.gov). Check the description of the notice-and-takedown system and the elements a claim must contain, and that the DMCA Designated Agent Directory exists separately — we do not claim a registration in it.
- IETF RFC 6068 — The 'mailto' URI Scheme. Check that the scheme allows header fields and a body to be carried in the URI, which is what makes a form-to-mail-client handoff possible at all.
- WHATWG HTML Living Standard — Form submission. Check the method/scheme table: for a
mailtoaction, GET means "Mail with headers" and POST means "Mail as body". That is why this form usesmethod="get". - Our own pages, for cross-checking consistency: the Terms of Service (no-warranty clause), the Privacy Policy (what mail data we hold), and the guides index (which states we publish no response-time statistics).
