Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
How is the "Age in Seconds" calculated?
The calculator determines the exact difference in milliseconds between your entered birth date/time and the current date/time on your device. This difference is then converted into total seconds. The display updates every second.
What happens if I don't enter my birth time?
If you omit the birth time, the calculator will default to 00:00 (midnight) on your birth date. This will still give you a very large number of seconds, but including the time makes the count more accurate to your actual moment of birth.
Is this calculation perfectly accurate to the millisecond?
The calculation is very precise based on the inputs and standard time conversions. However, minor discrepancies can occur due to browser processing, the exact moment the interval fires, and the inherent nature of representing time digitally. It's designed for fun and a very close approximation!
Does this tool store my birth date?
No, your birth date and time are processed directly in your browser (client-side) to perform the calculation. This information is not sent to or stored on our servers. Please see our Privacy Policy for more details.
