1. Information We Collect

a. Information you provide

Our paycheck calculator runs entirely in your browser. Salary, filing status, state, and any deduction values you enter are processed locally and are not transmitted to our servers or stored on our systems.

b. Automatically collected information

Like most websites, we automatically collect standard log data when you visit — IP address, browser type, referring URL, pages viewed, and timestamps. This data is used to operate, secure, and improve the Site.

c. Cookies and similar technologies

We use cookies and similar technologies to remember preferences, measure traffic, and serve advertising. You can control cookies through your browser settings.

2. How We Use Information

  • To operate, maintain, and improve the Site and calculator.
  • To analyze usage patterns and diagnose technical issues.
  • To serve relevant advertising and measure ad performance.
  • To comply with legal obligations and prevent abuse.

3. Advertising & Google AdSense

We use third-party advertising partners, including Google AdSense, to display ads on the Site. Google and its partners use cookies (including the DoubleClick DART cookie) to serve ads based on your visits to this Site and other sites on the Internet.

  • Google's use of advertising cookies enables it and its partners to serve ads based on your visits to this and other websites.
  • You may opt out of personalized advertising by visiting Google Ads Settings.
  • You may also opt out of some third-party vendors' use of cookies at aboutads.info.

Third-party advertisers may collect information about your visits to this and other websites in order to provide advertisements about goods and services of interest to you. We do not have access to, or control over, these cookies.

4. Analytics

We may use analytics services such as Google Analytics to understand how visitors use the Site. These services collect information sent by your browser as part of a web page request, including cookies and your IP address, and use it in aggregate form to report on Site usage.

5. Data Sharing

We do not sell your personal information. We share limited information only with service providers who help us operate the Site (hosting, analytics, advertising), and where required by law.

6. Your Rights

Depending on your location, you may have rights to access, correct, delete, or restrict processing of personal information, or to opt out of targeted advertising. Contact us at support@usapaycheckcalculator.net to exercise these rights.

The Site is not directed to children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13.
