This policy explains what happens to your information when you use PaycheckMath.
Every number you enter into a calculator on this site (salary, hourly wage, filing status, etc.) is processed entirely in your own browser using JavaScript. None of it is sent to, stored on, or visible to us or any server. If you close the page, that data is gone.
We use Google Analytics to understand how visitors use this site (e.g. which pages are viewed, how long people stay). Google Analytics uses cookies and collects information such as your approximate location, device type, and browsing behavior on this site. This data is aggregated and does not include the numbers you enter into the calculators. You can learn more about how Google handles this data at Google's Privacy Policy, and you can opt out using browser extensions such as Google's Analytics Opt-out Add-on.
This site may display ads served by Google AdSense and other ad networks. These networks may use cookies to show ads based on your visits to this and other websites. You can manage ad personalization through Google's Ads Settings.
