Privacy Policy

This privacy policy explains how US Tax Calculator ("we", "us", "our") handles information when you visit our website (the "site"). We are committed to protecting your privacy and being transparent about how any data is used.

1. The short version

The tax calculator runs entirely in your browser. Any salary, income or other figures you enter are processed on your own device and are never sent to us or stored on a server. We don't ask you to create an account, and we don't collect your name, email, Social Security number, or financial details through the calculator.

2. Information we collect

Depending on your cookie choices, we may collect:

• Cookie preference. When you accept or reject cookies, we store a small cookie recording that choice so we don't ask you again on every visit. This is essential and is always set.
• Analytics data (only with your consent). If you accept cookies and we have analytics enabled, a third-party provider may collect anonymized usage data such as pages visited, approximate location, device type and browser.
• Advertising data (only with your consent). If you accept cookies and we run ads, an advertising provider may set cookies to show and measure ads.

We do not currently run analytics or advertising. If we add them, they will only load after you click "Accept" on the cookie banner.

3. Cookies

We use two categories of cookies:

• Essential cookies — needed for the site to work, including remembering your cookie choice.
• Non-essential cookies — analytics and advertising cookies, set only if you consent via the banner.

You can change or withdraw consent by clearing this site's cookies in your browser settings, which makes the banner appear again on your next visit. Most browsers also let you block or delete cookies entirely.

4. Third-party services

To deliver the site we load some resources from third parties (fonts and the libraries that render the page and chart) from their content delivery networks. These providers may receive your IP address as a normal part of serving those files. If we enable analytics or advertising, those providers' own privacy policies will also apply.

5. Your privacy rights

Depending on where you live, you may have rights over your personal information — including the right to know what is collected, to request deletion, and to opt out of the sale or sharing of personal information. California residents have these rights under the CCPA/CPRA. Because the calculator stores no personal financial data on a server, there is little to no personal data for us to hold. To make a request, contact us using the details below.

6. Data retention

The cookie that records your consent choice lasts up to 6 months. Any analytics or advertising data is retained according to the relevant provider's policy. The calculator itself stores nothing on a server.

7. Children's privacy

This site is intended for a general adult audience and is not directed at children under 13. We do not knowingly collect data from children.

8. Changes to this policy

We may update this policy from time to time. Any changes will appear on this page with a revised "last updated" date.
