PaycheckLab Privacy Policy

Information we collect
The calculators on PaycheckLab run entirely in your browser. The values you type into a calculator are processed on your device and are not sent to us, uploaded, or stored on our servers. We use server logs and first-party analytics to understand page performance, traffic patterns, and errors.
Cookies and similar technologies
- Essential. Required for core site behavior, such as remembering your cookie choice and serving the correct site. Always active.
- Analytics. First-party, cookieless analytics that count page views and errors without identifying you across sites. Active by default because they set no tracking cookies.
- Advertising. Google AdSense and its partners may use cookies and similar technologies to deliver ads, measure performance, limit repeated ads, and detect abuse. Off by default. Turned on only after you accept advertising cookies in the consent banner.
Advertising and personalization opt-out
PaycheckLab uses Google-served advertising. You can control how Google personalizes the ads you see, including disabling personalized advertising entirely, at adssettings.google.com. Google's broader advertising privacy information is at policies.google.com/technologies/ads. You may also opt out of third-party advertising cookies at optout.aboutads.info (US) and youronlinechoices.eu (EU/UK).
How long we keep information
Because calculatorinputs stay on your device, we hold no calculation data to retain. Server logs and analytics records are kept for up to 18 months. Advertising cookies are controlled by Google and follow Google's retention policies.
Your rights in the EU, UK, and California
If you are in the European Economic Area, the United Kingdom, or California, you have the right to access, correct, port, or delete the limited personal information in our server logs, to withdraw consent for advertising cookies at any time, and to object to certain processing. We do not sell or share personal information. To exercise any of these rights, use the contact page.
