The short version

The numbers you type into a calculator stay in your browser. We do not have a server that receives them, no account system, and no way to connect a calculation to a person.

What is processed

  • Calculator inputs — pay rate, hours, filing status, state, deductions. Processed in your browser's memory and discarded when you close the page. Never transmitted.
  • Standard web logs — our hosting provider records IP address, user agent, and requested URL for security and abuse prevention, as every web host does.
  • Cookies — none are set by HourlyTakeHome itself. Advertising partners may set cookies to limit repeat ads and measure performance; see below.

Advertising

This site is supported by advertising. Third-party vendors, including Google, use cookies to serve ads based on prior visits to this and other websites. Google's use of advertising cookies enables it and its partners to serve ads to you based on your visit to this site and other sites on the internet. You can opt out of personalized advertising in Google Ads Settings, or opt out of third-party vendor cookies at aboutads.info.

Your choices

Because we do not collect personal data, there is nothing to delete or export. Blocking cookies or using a tracker blocker does not affect any calculator on this site.

Children

This site is not directed to children under 13 and collects no information from them.
