Privacy Policy

1. Zero Storage of Financial Calculation Data

Your privacy is paramount. When you enter vehicle prices, trade-in values, loan balances, or tax rates into our calculators, all calculations are executed locally within your web browser using client-side JavaScript.

CarTaxCalc does not transmit, log, store, or sell the numbers you type into our calculation forms. When you close or refresh your browser tab, your input data is completely erased.

2. Shareable Link Parameters

If you voluntarily click the "Copy Shareable Link" button, the calculator encodes your current inputs into a URL query parameter string so that you can save or share the calculation with a friend or spouse. This data exists solely within the link itself and is never stored on our web servers.

3. No Tracking Cookies or Third-Party Analytics

CarTaxCalc operates as a privacy-first, client-side web utility. The current production website does not load third-party advertising tracking scripts, analytics cookies, or behavioral marketing pixels. No personal tracking cookies are placed on your device by CarTaxCalc.

4. California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA)

Under the CCPA, California residents have the right to know what personal data is collected and request its deletion. Because CarTaxCalc does not collect personal identifiers, email addresses, or financial records, we do not sell or share consumer personal information.
