1. What Information We Collect
We do not collect or store any personal data entered into our calculators. All salary figures, tax settings and other inputs you enter are processed entirely within your own browser and are never transmitted to our servers.
We do not require you to create an account, provide your name, or share your email address to use any of our tools.
We use two third-party services that may collect limited, anonymised data:
- Google Analytics — to understand how visitors find and use our site (page views, device types, referral sources). IP addresses are anonymised.
- Google AdSense — to display relevant advertisements. Google may collect data in accordance with its own privacy policy.
2. Cookies
Our website uses cookies in the following categories:
- Analytics cookies — set by Google Analytics to help us understand site traffic. These cookies do not identify you personally.
- Advertising cookies — set by Google AdSense to serve and measure adverts. These may be used to show you more relevant advertisements on other websites.
- Preference cookies — we set a single cookie to remember whether you have accepted or declined our cookie banner.
For a full list of cookies used, see our Cookie Policy. You can withdraw consent at any time by clearing your browser cookies or using the "Manage Preferences" button on that page.
3. Google Analytics
We use Google Analytics 4 (GA4) to analyse website traffic. This service collects anonymised data about how users interact with our pages — including which pages are visited, how long users spend on them, and the type of device used. No personally identifiable information is collected or shared through this service.
If you wish to opt out of Google Analytics tracking across all websites, you can install the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on.
4. Google AdSense
We display advertisements on this website through Google AdSense. Google uses cookies and similar technologies to serve adverts based on your browsing history and interests. This data is collected and processed by Google in accordance with Google's Privacy Policy.
You can manage your advertising preferences through Google's Ad Settings page, or opt out of interest-based advertising via the Your Online Choices tool.
5. Your Rights
Under UK data protection law (UK GDPR), you have certain rights in relation to personal data. Because we do not collect or store your personal data directly, most of these rights apply primarily to data held by Google Analytics and Google AdSense on our behalf.
- Right to access — You can request information about what personal data is held about you.
- Right to object — You can object to the processing of your data for analytics or advertising purposes.
- Right to erasure — You can request the deletion of personal data where it is no longer necessary.
To exercise any of these rights, or if you have questions about this policy, please contact us.
6. Data Retention
We do not store any user-entered data on our servers. Any data held by Google Analytics is subject to Google's own retention policies, which you can manage through your Google account settings. Advertising data collected by Google AdSense is retained as outlined in Google's privacy documentation.
7. Links to Other Websites
Our website may contain links to third-party websites. We have no control over the content or privacy practices of those sites and are not responsible for them. We encourage you to read the privacy policy of any external website you visit.
8. Changes to This Policy
We may update this privacy policy from time to time to reflect changes in law, technology, or our practices. When we do, we will update the "Last updated" date at the top of this page. We recommend checking back periodically to stay informed.
