At 1099 Tax Calculator, we believe that your financial information is deeply personal. This privacy policy outlines how our application handles user data, emphasizing transparency and putting you in complete control. We designed this tool with privacy as a fundamental feature, not an afterthought.

We do not collect or store your personal financial data.

• All tax calculations happen entirely within your internet browser (client-side only).
• No financial data, income amounts, or expense figures are sent to our servers.
• Your sensitive information never leaves your device.
• We do not require you to create an account or provide identifiable information to use the calculator.

By keeping all processing local to your machine, we eliminate the risk of your income data being intercepted or compromised in a data breach on our end.

While we do not track your financial inputs, we do use standard analytics tools (such as Google Analytics) to understand how our site is used and to improve the user experience.

• Purpose: Analytics help us understand general usage patterns, such as which pages are most popular and what devices our visitors use.
• Aggregated Data: All analytics data is aggregated and anonymized. It does not identify you as an individual.
• Cookies: These tools use cookies (small text files placed on your device) to recognize returning visitors and track session data.
• Opting Out: You can control cookie preferences through your browser settings or use third-party extensions to block analytics tracking entirely.
