What we collect
1) Calculator inputs
The calculator runs client-side (in your browser). The income values you enter are used to compute results on the page. We do not intentionally collect or store these values on our servers.
2) Basic usage data (analytics)
Like most websites, we may collect limited technical information to understand how the site is used (for example: pages visited, approximate location such as country, device type, browser, and referrer). This helps us improve performance and content.
3) Cookies
This site does not set cookies for the core calculator. If third-party services are enabled (for example advertising or embedded content), they may set cookies or use similar technologies.
Advertising and affiliate links
We may show advertisements on this site. Advertising partners may use cookies or similar technologies to measure ad performance and show relevant ads.
We may include affiliate links (for example, to books or tools). If you click an affiliate link and make a purchase, we may earn a commission at no extra cost to you.
Affiliate and ad services are operated by third parties and their data practices are governed by their own privacy policies.

Legal basis (UK & EEA)
