Privacy Policy
Effective Date: January 1, 2026 • Last Updated: September 2026
1. Client-Side Computational Architecture
When you enter numbers into our paycheck, salary, or tax bracket tools, that data is processed solely by JavaScript executing in your device's memory. It is never sent to our backend servers, logged in server access files, or tied to your identity. If you refresh or close your browser tab, your entered numbers are instantly discarded unless you have explicitly configured your browser's local cache.
2. Information We May Collect
Like standard modern websites, we may collect non-personally identifiable technical information to maintain site reliability and optimize page speed:
- Browser type, language preference, and operating system
- Referral source and timestamps of page visits
- Aggregate telemetry on calculator usage (e.g., page views) without capturing any financial inputs
- Inquiries submitted voluntarily through our contact email
3. Cookies & Third-Party Services
We may utilize cookies or third-party web analysis services (such as Google Analytics or privacy-respecting analytics) to understand broad traffic trends.
In the future, this site may partner with advertising networks such as Google AdSense. Third-party vendors, including Google, use cookies to serve ads based on a user's prior visits to this or other websites. You can learn more about managing or opting out of personalized advertising by visiting the Google Ads Settings.
4. Children's Online Privacy Protection
PayCalcly is directed at working adults, employees, and independent business contractors. We do not knowingly collect or solicit any personal information from individuals under the age of 13.
