Privacy Policy

Last updated: 13 April 2026

1. Data We Collect

SalaryCalc is a client-side salary calculator. All salary figures you enter are processed entirely in your browser and are never sent to our servers. We do not collect, store, or have access to the salary, tax, or financial data you enter into the calculator.

We automatically collect limited, non-personal data through analytics and advertising services described below, including:

  • Pages visited and approximate time spent on the site
  • Referring URL, browser type, operating system, and screen resolution
  • Approximate geographic location (country/city level, derived from IP address)
  • Device type (desktop, mobile, tablet)

2. How We Use Data

The non-personal data described above is used solely to:

  • Understand which country calculators are most used so we can prioritise updates
  • Monitor site performance and fix technical issues
  • Display relevant advertising to support the free service

We do not sell, rent, or share your personal information with third parties for their own marketing purposes.

3. Cookies

We use cookies and similar technologies for analytics and advertising. These include:

  • Essential cookies — required for the site to function (e.g. remembering your currency preference).
  • Analytics cookies — placed by Google Analytics to measure site usage. These cookies collect anonymous, aggregated data.
  • Advertising cookies — placed by Google AdSense to display personalised ads. You may opt out of personalised advertising at Google Ads Settings.

You can control or delete cookies through your browser settings. Disabling cookies may affect the functionality of the site.

4. Third-Party Services

We use the following third-party services:

  • Google Analytics — web analytics service provided by Google LLC. Google Analytics uses cookies to help us analyse how visitors use the site. Data is processed in accordance with Google's Privacy Policy.
  • Google AdSense — advertising service provided by Google LLC. AdSense may use cookies and web beacons to serve ads based on your prior visits to this or other websites.
  • Vercel — hosting and deployment platform. Vercel may process server logs containing IP addresses. See Vercel's Privacy Policy.

5. Your Rights Under GDPR

If you are located in the European Economic Area (EEA), you have the right to:

  • Access the personal data we hold about you
  • Request correction or deletion of your data
  • Object to or restrict the processing of your data
  • Data portability
  • Withdraw consent at any time where processing is based on consent

Since we do not collect personal salary data and only process anonymous analytics, the scope of data we hold is limited to what is described in Section 1.

6. Data Retention

Analytics data is retained for 14 months in Google Analytics, after which it is automatically deleted. We do not maintain any separate database of user data.

7. Children's Privacy

SalaryCalc is not directed at children under 16. We do not knowingly collect data from children under 16.
