1. Introduction

SupportCalc ("we," "our," or "us") operates the website calcsupport.org (the "Site"). This Privacy Policy describes how we collect, use, and protect information when you visit and use our Site.

By accessing or using the Site, you agree to the practices described in this Privacy Policy. If you do not agree, please discontinue use of the Site.

2. Information We Do Not Collect

SupportCalc is designed with privacy as a core principle. Our child support calculators perform all computations entirely within your web browser using client-side JavaScript. We do not:

  • Collect, store, or process your personal or financial information on our servers
  • Require you to create an account or provide identifying details
  • Save your income data, custody information, or calculation results
  • Share any user-specific data with third parties
  • Track individual calculation results or outcomes

The data you enter into our calculators remains entirely in your browser and is never transmitted to our servers or any third-party service.

3. Automatically Collected Information

When you visit our Site, certain information may be collected automatically through standard web technologies. This may include:

  • IP address (anonymized where possible)
  • Browser type and version
  • Operating system
  • Referring website or URL
  • Pages visited and time spent on the Site
  • Device type (desktop, mobile, tablet)
  • General geographic location (country/region level only)

This information is collected in aggregate and is used solely to understand how visitors use the Site so we can improve the user experience. It cannot be used to identify any individual person.

4. Cookies and Tracking Technologies

We use cookies and similar tracking technologies for the following purposes:

Essential Cookies

These cookies are necessary for the Site to function properly. They enable core features such as navigation and access to secure areas. You cannot opt out of essential cookies.

Analytics Cookies

We use Google Analytics to collect anonymized data about Site traffic and usage patterns. These cookies help us understand which pages are most visited, how users navigate the Site, and where improvements are needed. Google Analytics data is aggregated and cannot identify individual users.

Advertising Cookies

We may use Google AdSense to display advertisements on the Site. Google AdSense may use cookies to serve personalized or non-personalized ads based on your browsing history. You can manage your ad preferences through Google Ads Settings.

You can control cookies through your browser settings. Most browsers allow you to block or delete cookies. Please note that disabling cookies may affect certain features of the Site.

5. Third-Party Services

We use the following third-party services that may collect information as described below:

Google Analytics

We use Google Analytics 4 to analyze Site traffic and usage. Google Analytics collects information anonymously and reports website trends without identifying individual visitors. For more information, see Google's Privacy Policy.

Google AdSense

We may display advertisements through Google AdSense. Google and its partners may use cookies to serve ads based on your prior visits to this or other websites. You can opt out of personalized advertising by visiting Google Ads Settings.

We do not share any personal data with these third-party services, as we do not collect personal data in the first place.

6. Data Security

We take reasonable measures to protect the security of our Site and any data processed through it. Our security practices include:

  • HTTPS encryption (TLS/SSL) for all connections to our Site
  • Client-side-only calculation processing — no sensitive data is transmitted over the internet
  • Regular review of our technology stack for vulnerabilities
  • Minimal data collection by design

However, no method of electronic transmission or storage is 100% secure. While we strive to protect any information, we cannot guarantee absolute security.

7. Children's Privacy

Our Site is not directed to children under the age of 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If you are a parent or guardian and believe your child has provided us with personal information, please contact us and we will take steps to remove that information.

8. Your Rights

Depending on your jurisdiction, you may have certain rights regarding your personal data, including:

  • Right to Access: Request a copy of any data we hold about you
  • Right to Rectification: Request correction of inaccurate data
  • Right to Erasure: Request deletion of your data
  • Right to Object: Object to processing of your data
  • Right to Data Portability: Receive your data in a portable format

Since we do not collect personal data, most of these rights are not applicable. However, if you believe we hold any identifiable information about you, please contact us at privacy@calcsupport.org and we will respond to your request within 30 days.

9. California Privacy Rights (CCPA)

Under the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA), California residents have the right to:

  • Know what personal information is collected
  • Request deletion of personal information
  • Opt out of the sale of personal information
  • Not be discriminated against for exercising these rights

We do not sell personal information. We do not collect personal information beyond the anonymized analytics data described in this policy. For questions or requests, contact us at privacy@calcsupport.org.
