Privacy Policy
Last Updated: January 2026
Introduction
FirePlanIO respects your privacy. All financial calculators on this site run 100% client-side in your browser; we do NOT store, save, or transmit your financial inputs to any external server. Values such as your balances, contributions, income, mortgage details, and subscription lists never leave your device. This policy explains what limited information is collected when you visit the site, how advertising partners use cookies, and the rights you have under the European Union's General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and California's Consumer Privacy Act as amended by the CPRA.
Information We Collect
We do not ask you to create an account and we do not request personally identifiable information to use any calculator. Like nearly all websites, our hosting provider and analytics tooling automatically process a limited set of non-personally identifiable information, including:
- IP address (used for security, abuse prevention, and approximate country-level location);
- Browser type, operating system, device type, and screen size, used to keep layouts working correctly;
- Referring URL, pages viewed, and time on page, collected as aggregate analytics data through standard cookies and similar technologies;
- Local preferences stored in your browser's localStorage, such as your cookie consent choice. This data stays on your device and is never uploaded to us.
If you email us voluntarily, we receive the contents of your message and your email address, and we use them only to reply to you.
Google AdSense & Third-Party Advertising
FirePlanIO is supported by advertising. Third-party vendors, including Google, use cookies to serve ads based on your prior visits to this and other websites on the internet.
- Google's use of advertising cookies — including the DART cookie — enables it and its partners to serve ads to you based on your visits to this site and/or other sites on the internet.
- You may opt out of personalized advertising by visiting Google Ads Settings, or opt out of third-party vendor cookies at aboutads.info/choices and youronlinechoices.eu.
- Declining non-essential cookies in our consent banner restricts personalization; ads may still be shown on a non-personalized basis.
GDPR Rights (European Users)
If you are located in the European Economic Area or the United Kingdom, you have the following rights regarding personal data processed about you:
- Right of access — obtain confirmation of whether we process data about you and receive a copy of it.
- Right to rectification — have inaccurate or incomplete data corrected.
- Right to data portability — receive your data in a structured, commonly used, machine-readable format.
- Right to object and to restrict processing — object at any time to processing based on legitimate interests, including profiling for advertising.
- Right to erasure ("right to be forgotten") — request deletion of personal data we hold about you.
- Right to withdraw consent — withdraw cookie consent at any time by clearing your browser storage; the consent banner will appear again on your next visit.
- Right to lodge a complaint with your national supervisory authority.
CCPA/CPRA Rights (California Residents)
If you are a California resident, you have the following rights under the CCPA as amended by the CPRA:
- Right to Know — request the categories and specific pieces of personal information collected, the sources, the business purpose, and the categories of third parties with whom it is shared.
- Right to Delete — request deletion of personal information collected from you, subject to legal exceptions.
- Right to Correct — request correction of inaccurate personal information.
- Right to Opt-Out of the Sale or Sharing of personal information ("Do Not Sell or Share My Personal Information"). We do not sell personal information for money. Advertising cookies may qualify as "sharing" for cross-context behavioral advertising; you can opt out by selecting Decline Non-Essential in our cookie banner or by emailing us.
- Right to Non-Discrimination — we will never degrade the service you receive for exercising these rights.
Data Retention and Security
Because calculators are client-side, there is no financial database to breach. Server logs and aggregate analytics are retained only as long as needed for security and reporting purposes. The site is served over HTTPS.
Children's Privacy
FirePlanIO is not directed to children under 13 (or under 16 in the EEA), and we do not knowingly collect information from them.
Changes to This Policy
We may update this policy to reflect changes in law or in our advertising partners' practices. The "Last Updated" date above always reflects the current version.
