Privacy Policy

Your privacy matters to us. This policy explains what information we do and do not collect when you use MortgageCalculator.website.

Calculator inputs stay on your device

Every calculator on this site performs its math entirely within your web browser using client-side JavaScript. The numbers you type, your income, home price, loan balance, and so on, are not transmitted to our servers, stored by us, or shared with any lender or third party. When you close or refresh the page, those inputs are gone. This is a deliberate design choice that distinguishes us from lead-generation calculators that capture your data.

Information we may collect automatically

Like most websites, we may use privacy-respecting analytics to understand aggregate traffic, which pages are visited, general geographic region, device type, and referring source. This information is aggregated and cannot ordinarily be used to identify you personally. We use it only to improve the site's content and performance.

Cookies

We may use a small number of cookies or similar technologies for essential site functionality and aggregate analytics. You can control or disable cookies through your browser settings; the calculators will continue to function normally without them, since they do not depend on cookies to compute results.

Third-party services

If we display advertising or use third-party analytics, those providers may set their own cookies subject to their own privacy policies. We choose partners that respect user privacy, and we do not provide them with any calculator inputs, because we never collect those inputs in the first place.

Data security and your rights

Because we minimize the data we collect, there is very little personal information for us to secure. Where applicable law grants you rights over personal data, such as the right to access or delete it, we honor those rights for any information we do hold. Requests can be made through our contact page.

Children's privacy

This site is intended for adults making financial decisions and is not directed at children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children.

Changes to this policy

We may update this policy as our practices or applicable laws change. Material changes will be reflected on this page with an updated date. Continued use of the site after changes indicates acceptance of the revised policy.
