Your Data Stays With You
All calculations on PaycheckTools run entirely in your browser. We do not collect, store, or transmit any numbers you enter into our calculators.
Analytics
We use Google Analytics 4 (GA4) to understand how visitors use the Site, such as which pages are visited most and how users navigate between them. GA4 is only loaded after you give consent via the cookie banner. If you decline, no analytics scripts are loaded and no tracking occurs.
Cookies
PaycheckTools does not set any first-party tracking cookies. When you accept analytics via the cookie banner, Google Analytics may set cookies such as _ga and _ga_* to distinguish unique visitors and sessions. Your consent preference is stored in your browser's localStorage (not as a cookie) under the key cookie-consent. You can change your choice at any time by clearing your browser's localStorage or site data.
Advertising
We may display advertisements served by third-party ad networks, including Google AdSense. These networks may use cookies, web beacons, and similar technologies to serve ads based on your prior visits to this Site or other websites. You may opt out of personalized advertising by visiting Google Ads Settings or www.aboutads.info.
Third-Party Services
The Site may embed or link to third-party services (e.g., fonts, analytics, ad networks). These services have their own privacy policies, and we encourage you to review them.
Children's Privacy
PaycheckTools is not directed at children under 13. We do not knowingly collect information from children.
Changes
We may update this policy from time to time. Changes will be posted on this page with an updated date.
