Effective date: April 29, 2026
The Short Version
We don't ask for your personal information to use our calculators. The numbers you enter (home prices, loan amounts, etc.) are processed in your browser and never sent to our servers or stored. We use third-party services for analytics and advertising that may collect information about your visit; you can opt out of these.
Information We Collect
Information You Provide
Our calculators run entirely in your browser. The numbers you enter into them are not transmitted to our servers, not stored, and not associated with you. If you contact us via email, we receive whatever information you choose to include in your message.
Information Collected Automatically
Like virtually all websites, we collect basic technical information when you visit, including your IP address, browser type, device type, the pages you view, the time of your visit, and the referring URL. This information is used to understand how the site is used and to detect abuse.
Cookies and Similar Technologies
We use cookies and similar technologies for the following purposes:
- Analytics: To understand which calculators and articles are most useful
- Advertising: To show ads relevant to your interests via Google AdSense and similar networks
- Affiliate tracking: To credit our site when you click an affiliate link and complete a transaction
You can disable cookies in your browser settings, though some parts of the site may not function as expected.
