Your Privacy is Our Core Commitment
FinanceKit Pro is a 100% free financial calculator platform used in 150+ countries. We built it with a simple belief: you should be able to calculate your EMI, check Bitcoin prices, or plan your retirement without handing over your personal data to anyone โ ever.
1. Overview & Scope of This Privacy Policy
Who we are and what this policy covers
This Privacy Policy describes how FinanceKit Pro ("we," "us," "our"), accessible at financekit.tech, handles information when you use our suite of free financial calculators, health tools, live market data pages, economic calendar, and crypto tracking tools.
FinanceKit Pro is a browser-based, zero-account platform. We have designed every tool โ from our free EMI calculator and compound interest calculator to our live Bitcoin price tracker and economic calendar for forex โ to operate entirely within your web browser without requiring any personal information from you.
๐ Short version: We don't know who you are, where you live, what loans you're calculating, or what crypto you track. All tool inputs stay in your browser. We collect only anonymized, aggregated usage analytics through Google Analytics. We will never sell your data.
This policy applies to all visitors worldwide, including users in the United States, United Kingdom, Canada, Australia, Germany, France, UAE, Saudi Arabia, Singapore, Japan, South Korea, Switzerland, Netherlands, Sweden, Norway, and all other jurisdictions. If you are accessing our tools from the European Union or United Kingdom, additional rights apply to you under GDPR, which are described in the Compliance section below.
2. What Information We Collect (Minimal & Anonymized)
Only anonymized, non-identifiable technical data
FinanceKit Pro collects the absolute minimum amount of information necessary to operate our free financial tools and improve the user experience. Here is exactly what is and is not collected:
| Data Type | Collected? | Purpose | Retention |
|---|---|---|---|
| Name, email, phone | โ Never | Not needed | โ |
| Financial inputs (loan amounts, salary, etc.) | โ Never | Stays in your browser only | โ |
| Health data (BMI, weight, etc.) | โ Never | Calculated locally | โ |
| IP address (full) | โ Never stored | Anonymized by Google Analytics | โ |
| Page views & session data | ~ Anonymized | Understanding popular tools | 26 months (GA4) |
| Browser type, country (anonymized) | ~ Aggregate only | Performance optimization | 26 months (GA4) |
| Currency preference | โ Local only | Saved to your browser localStorage | Until you clear browser data |
| Crypto/FX API cache | โ Local only | Reduces API calls, improves speed | 5โ60 minutes, auto-expires |
The page-view and session data collected through Google Analytics does not include your name, email address, exact IP address, or any financial figures you enter into our calculators. It is limited to aggregated statistics like "X people visited the EMI calculator from the United Kingdom today."
3. What We Absolutely Never Collect or Store
Our zero-data commitment to users worldwide
We want to be crystal clear about what we do not do. FinanceKit Pro was designed from day one to be a privacy-first free tool platform. The following data is never collected, stored, processed, or transmitted by FinanceKit Pro under any circumstances:
- Your full name, email address, phone number, or physical address
- Any loan amount, salary figure, investment value, or tax number you enter into any calculator
- BMI, weight, height, calorie intake, body fat percentage, or pregnancy data
- Crypto portfolio size, trading amounts, or profit/loss figures
- Credit card, bank account, or any payment details
- Social Security Number (SSN), National Insurance Number, or equivalent government ID
- Login credentials, passwords, or account information of any kind
- Location data beyond anonymized country-level (derived from IP by Google Analytics)
- Behavioral profiling data, browsing history outside our site, or cross-site tracking
- Biometric data or device fingerprinting data
โ Because we never collect this data, we also cannot lose it in a breach, sell it to a data broker, or hand it to a third party. Your financial privacy is structurally protected by our no-data architecture.
4. Cookies, localStorage & Browser Storage
Minimal, purpose-limited, locally scoped storage only
FinanceKit Pro uses browser localStorage (not traditional cookies) to store a small amount of functional data to improve your experience. Here's exactly what is stored and why:
| Storage Key | Contents | Expires | Purpose |
|---|---|---|---|
fkp-currency |
Your selected display currency code (e.g., USD, GBP, AED) | Until cleared | Remembers currency preference across pages |
fkp-theme |
Dark or light mode preference | Until cleared | Persists your display preference |
fkp-crypto-cache |
Cached CoinGecko API response (prices, market caps) | 5 minutes | Avoid excessive API calls; improve load speed |
fkp-rates-USD |
Cached FX exchange rates vs. USD | 60 minutes | Live currency conversion across tools |
fkp-fg-cache |
Cached Fear & Greed index value | 60 minutes | Display current market sentiment |
All localStorage data is stored only on your device and is never transmitted to FinanceKit Pro servers. You can clear it at any time by clearing your browser's site data. None of these entries contain personal identifiable information.
We also use Google Analytics cookies (_ga, _gid) for anonymized usage statistics. These are set by Google's systems and are subject to Google's own privacy policy. IP anonymization is enabled.
We use Google AdSense cookies for non-personalized advertising. You can opt out via Google's Ad Settings at adssettings.google.com.
5. Third-Party APIs & Services We Use
Transparent disclosure of all external services
FinanceKit Pro integrates with a small number of free, public third-party APIs to provide live financial data. These calls are made directly from your browser and do not pass through our servers. Here is a full list:
| Service | Used For | Data Sent | Privacy Policy |
|---|---|---|---|
| CoinGecko API | Live cryptocurrency prices, market caps, Fear & Greed | Your IP (standard HTTP request) | coingecko.com/privacy |
| Alternative.me API | Crypto Fear & Greed Index | Your IP (standard HTTP request) | alternative.me/privacy |
| Open Exchange Rates (open.er-api.com) | Live FX rates for currency converter | Your IP (standard HTTP request) | exchangerate-api.com/terms |
| Google Fonts | Sora & DM Mono typefaces | Your IP, User-Agent | fonts.google.com/about |
| Google Analytics (GA4) | Anonymized usage statistics | Anonymized IP, page views, session data | policies.google.com/privacy |
| Google AdSense | Non-intrusive display advertising | Anonymized device/browser info | policies.google.com/privacy |
FinanceKit Pro does not integrate with Facebook Pixel, TikTok Pixel, Twitter Ads tracking, LinkedIn Insight Tag, or any behavioral advertising network beyond Google AdSense's contextual system.
6. Advertising Policy โ Google AdSense
How we keep ads non-intrusive and privacy-safe
FinanceKit Pro is supported by Google AdSense, which allows us to keep all tools completely free and accessible worldwide. We have configured AdSense with the following privacy principles:
- Ads are contextual and non-personalized by default โ they match the page content (e.g., finance tools = finance ads), not your browsing history
- We do not use remarketing or retargeting audiences based on FinanceKit Pro visits
- We do not participate in any behavioral advertising data co-operatives
- We comply with EU/UK consent requirements โ users in regulated regions are served ads in compliance with Google's EU User Consent Policy
- You can opt out of personalized ads globally at adssettings.google.com or via your browser's privacy settings
We believe in an ad-light, user-first experience. The number of ad units displayed is kept minimal to ensure fast page load times and a clean interface โ consistent with our Core Web Vitals optimization goals.
7. Google Analytics โ Anonymized Usage Data
We only see aggregate trends, never individuals
We use Google Analytics 4 (GA4) to understand how people use FinanceKit Pro in aggregate. This helps us identify which tools are most useful, which pages load slowly, and where we can improve. Our GA4 setup is configured with:
- IP anonymization enabled โ your full IP address is never stored; only a truncated, non-identifiable version is used to derive approximate country/region
- Data retention set to 14 months โ analytics data is automatically deleted after this period
- Google Signals disabled โ we do not allow cross-device tracking or linking to Google account profiles
- Advertising features disabled โ we do not use GA4 for remarketing audience creation
- No user-ID tracking โ since we have no accounts, there are no user IDs to track
In practice, we see reports like "FinanceKit Pro received 45,000 visits this month; 22% from the US, 8% from the UK, 6% from Germany." We never see individual user journeys, personally identifiable information, or financial data from any calculator.
To opt out of Google Analytics tracking on any website, you can install the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on.
8. Global Privacy Law Compliance
GDPR, CCPA, PIPEDA, PDPA & more
FinanceKit Pro is used globally and we take compliance with local data protection laws seriously. Because we collect no personal data, we are in a strong position to comply with virtually every data privacy framework worldwide.
For EU/UK users (GDPR): Our lawful basis for processing the minimal anonymized analytics data we receive is Legitimate Interests (Article 6(1)(f) GDPR) โ specifically, our legitimate interest in understanding which features to improve. Since we collect no personal data from calculators, there is no data subject to the rights of access, erasure, or portability in the normal sense. However, we fully honor all GDPR requests. Contact us at support@financekit.tech for any requests.
For California users (CCPA/CPRA): We do not sell or share personal information as defined under the CCPA. We do not maintain records of personal information about California consumers linked to specific individuals. You have the right to opt out of the sale of personal information โ but there is nothing to opt out of because we do not sell personal information.
For Canadian users (PIPEDA): We collect only what is necessary (anonymized analytics), retain it for a limited period, and do not use it for purposes beyond aggregate site improvement. Individuals may request a summary of any data FinanceKit Pro holds about them by contacting support@financekit.tech.
9. Your Privacy Rights & How to Exercise Them
Access, deletion, portability, and opt-out
Depending on your country of residence, you may have some or all of the following rights regarding your data. Because FinanceKit Pro does not collect personal data, exercising most of these rights results in a response of "no data held" โ but we are committed to honoring every request transparently.
- Right of Access: You can request a copy of any personal data we hold about you. We will respond within 30 days.
- Right to Erasure ("Right to be Forgotten"): You can request deletion of your personal data. Since we hold none, we will confirm this in writing.
- Right to Rectification: You can request correction of inaccurate personal data we hold.
- Right to Data Portability: You can request a machine-readable copy of your data.
- Right to Object / Opt-Out: You can opt out of analytics tracking via the Google Analytics opt-out add-on, or from ad personalization at adssettings.google.com.
- Right to Restrict Processing: You can request that we restrict how we use your data while a complaint is being investigated.
- Right to Withdraw Consent: If you have provided consent for any processing, you can withdraw it at any time.
To exercise any of these rights, email us at support@financekit.tech with "Privacy Request" in the subject line. We aim to respond within 2 business days for simple requests and within 30 days for complex data subject access requests.
If you are in the EU or UK and believe we have not handled your data appropriately, you have the right to lodge a complaint with your local Data Protection Authority (DPA). In the UK, this is the ICO (ico.org.uk). In Germany, it is the relevant Landesbeauftragter. We strongly encourage you to contact us first so we can resolve any concerns directly.
10. Children's Privacy (COPPA Compliance)
Safe for all ages โ no data collection from minors
FinanceKit Pro is a general-audience financial tools website. Our tools include calculators that students and young people may use for education โ such as the percentage calculator, GPA calculator, grade calculator, and basic math tools. We fully comply with the Children's Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA) in the United States and equivalent laws globally.
- We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13 (or under 16 for EU/UK purposes)
- Our tools do not require age verification because they collect no personal data from any user, child or adult
- We do not direct behavioral advertising at minors
- If a parent or guardian believes their child has submitted personal information to us, contact support@financekit.tech and we will investigate and delete promptly
Since no personal data is collected by any FinanceKit Pro tool โ from any user, regardless of age โ our tools are inherently safe for young learners, students, and educators.
11. Data Security & Technical Safeguards
How we keep your data safe โ even the minimal data we handle
Our best security measure is architectural: since we collect no personal data, there is no database of user records to breach, no password hashes to steal, and no financial information to expose. However, we also implement standard web security practices:
- HTTPS everywhere: All pages are served over TLS/SSL encryption. HTTP connections are automatically redirected to HTTPS.
- No user database: There is no login system, no user accounts, and no server-side user profile storage.
- No form submissions to our servers: Calculator inputs are processed entirely in your browser's JavaScript engine and never transmitted anywhere.
- Content Security Policy (CSP) headers: Implemented to reduce XSS attack vectors.
- Minimal third-party scripts: We only load scripts from Google (Analytics, AdSense, Fonts) and no other third parties, reducing attack surface.
- Subresource Integrity (SRI): Planned for all external scripts to ensure tamper-proof delivery.
In the unlikely event of a security incident affecting any data we do hold (e.g., server-level access logs), we will notify affected parties and relevant authorities within 72 hours as required by GDPR Article 33.
12. Changes to This Privacy Policy
How we notify you of updates
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes in our practices, new tools we launch, changes in applicable law, or updates to third-party services we use. When we make material changes, we will:
- Update the "Last Updated" date at the top of this page
- Post a notice on our homepage for 30 days
- Where feasible and required by law, notify users via any contact information we hold (note: since we hold no contact details, this is typically via the site notice)
The most current version of this policy is always available at financekit.tech/privacy.html. We encourage you to review this page periodically. Continued use of FinanceKit Pro after any change constitutes acceptance of the updated policy.
