Privacy Policy

👋 Introduction

Welcome to CalcFinance.net ("we", "us", or "our"). This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, and protect information when you use our free financial calculators and tools.

By using CalcFinance.net, you agree to the practices described in this policy. If you do not agree, please discontinue use of the site.

🛡️ What We Do NOT Collect

All financial calculations on CalcFinance.net — including mortgage figures, income data, retirement numbers, tax information, and net worth inputs — are processed entirely within your browser. This means:

• Your income, salary, or financial figures are never sent to our servers
• Your mortgage or loan inputs stay on your device only
• Your retirement savings and investment details are never stored
• We do not require an account, login, or any personal information
• We do not collect your name, address, email, or phone number
• We do not sell your data to third parties — ever

📊 Information Collected Automatically

When you visit CalcFinance.net, basic technical information is automatically logged by our hosting provider. This may include:

• Your IP address (used for server security and abuse prevention only)
• Browser type and version (e.g. Chrome 120, Safari 17)
• Operating system (e.g. Windows, macOS, iOS)
• Pages visited on our site and time spent
• Referring website (if you clicked a link to reach us)
• Date and time of your visit

This data is aggregated and anonymized. It cannot be used to identify you personally and is used only to understand overall site usage and improve our tools.

CalcFinance.net displays advertisements served by Google AdSense. Advertising helps us keep all tools free for everyone. Google AdSense uses cookies and similar technologies to display relevant ads.

Google may use information about your visits to this and other websites to show you personalized advertisements. Specifically:

• Google uses the DoubleClick cookie to serve interest-based ads

🍪 Cookies

CalcFinance.net does not set any first-party cookies of its own. However, our advertising partner Google AdSense and analytics tools may place cookies on your device.

These cookies are used to:

• Serve and measure the effectiveness of advertisements
• Understand how visitors navigate and use the site
• Prevent fraud and abuse
• Remember preferences within the same browsing session

You can manage or disable cookies through your browser settings. Note that disabling cookies may affect your experience on other websites. Most browsers allow you to view, block, or delete cookies under Settings → Privacy.

📈 Analytics

We may use Google Analytics to understand how visitors use CalcFinance.net. This helps us identify which calculators are most used, how long people spend on the site, and where visitors come from — so we can improve our tools.

Google Analytics data is:

• Anonymized — it cannot identify you personally
• Aggregated — we see totals, not individual user journeys
• Used only to improve our tools and content

You can opt out of Google Analytics tracking by installing the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on.
