Privacy Policy

Effective Date: January 1, 2026 • Last Updated: October 10, 2026

At FeeCheckTools (“we,” “our,” or “the Site”), we believe that your financial business calculations should remain entirely private. This Privacy Policy details our data collection practices and technical architecture.

1. Client-Side Execution (No Financial Data Transmission)

All calculators and tools on FeeCheckTools (including our Stripe & PayPal fee calculator, Etsy profit margin tool, freelance hourly rate calculator, salary inflation calculator, and 1099 vs W-2 comparison tool) execute strictly within your web browser using client-side JavaScript.

The values you enter—such as revenue numbers, hourly wage targets, billable hours, client invoice totals, product listing prices, and tax rates—are never transmitted across the internet, recorded in database logs, or shared with third parties. Once you refresh or close your browser tab, all calculated values are immediately cleared from temporary browser memory.

2. No Account Registration or Passwords

FeeCheckTools does not offer or require user registration. We do not collect names, home addresses, phone numbers, or credit card numbers.

3. Standard Web Hosting & Server Logs

When you visit any website, the underlying hosting infrastructure automatically processes technical HTTP request headers necessary to deliver web assets. This technical telemetry may include your internet protocol (IP) address, browser user-agent, operating system, and request timestamps. These server logs are utilized solely for server uptime monitoring, DDoS mitigation, and system security.

4. Cookies and Local Storage

FeeCheckTools does not set behavioral tracking or profiling cookies. If local storage is used, it is limited to persisting UI preferences (such as selected currency preference like USD, EUR, or GBP) directly on your device.

5. External Links

Our articles and methodology sections link to official government bodies and payment processors (such as the IRS, Bureau of Labor Statistics, Stripe, and PayPal). We are not responsible for the privacy practices or content of third-party websites.
