Privacy policy

Almost nothing. There are no accounts, no sign-up forms and no newsletter, so the site never asks for your name, email or employer.

They stay on your device. The calculators run in your browser. Your pay, filing status and other inputs are kept in the page address so you can share or bookmark a result, and they are never sent to a server by this site.

If you share a link, the inputs in it are visible to whoever opens it.

Yes, for the services below. The site itself sets no cookies. Your light or dark theme choice is saved in your browser's local storage, and you can clear it at any time in your browser settings.

Yes, in aggregate, with Google Analytics. It counts which pages are opened, from which country and kind of device, and how visitors arrive. Page addresses are sent without the part that holds your calculator inputs, and visits are never tied to your name. It sets cookies for this. It never receives the pay figures you type.

The site is hosted by Vercel. Like any web server, it processes the address of each request, including your IP address and browser type, to deliver pages and protect the site from abuse. The site does not use these logs to identify you.

Sources link to official sites such as the IRS and state revenue departments. Those sites have their own privacy policies, which apply once you follow a link.

No. The site is a reference for working adults and does not knowingly collect anything from children.
