Privacy Policy
Your data never leaves your browser. Period.
Effective Date: January 1, 2025
Last Updated: January 2025
🔒 The Simple Truth
We CAN'T see your financial data because it NEVER leaves your browser. All calculations and storage happen locally on your device using browser localStorage.
1. Information We DON'T Collect
Unlike most financial tools, MyNetWorth.app does NOT collect, store, or have access to:
- Your financial data (assets, liabilities, income, expenses)
- Personal information you enter into calculators
- Business information in invoices or statements
- Any data you input into our forms
Why? Because all our tools run entirely in your browser. We use localStorage (your browser's storage) to save your work, which means your data stays on YOUR device.
2. Information We DO Collect
2.1 Payment Information
When you purchase premium features:
- Stripe (our payment processor) handles all payment data
- We receive only: transaction ID, email, and purchase confirmation
- We NEVER see or store credit card numbers
2.2 Analytics Data
We use Google Analytics to understand site usage:
- Pages visited
- Time on site
- Browser and device type
- General geographic location (country/state level)
- No personally identifiable information
2.3 Cookies
We use cookies only for:
- Google Analytics (anonymous usage tracking)
- Google AdSense (if you see ads)
- No tracking cookies for marketing
3. How Your Data Stays Private
localStorage Explained
When you use our calculators, your data is saved in your browser's localStorage. This means:
- Data exists only on your device
- We have no servers storing your information
- Clearing your browser data deletes everything
- Different browsers = different saved data
- Incognito/Private mode = no data saved
4. Data Security
Your financial data security is guaranteed by design:
- ✅ All pages served over HTTPS (encrypted connection)
- ✅ No databases = no database breaches
- ✅ No user accounts = no password leaks
- ✅ Local storage = you control your data
- ✅ Stripe handles all payment security (PCI compliant)
5. Third-Party Services
Stripe (Payment Processing)
For premium features, payments are processed by Stripe. Review their privacy policy at stripe.com/privacy
Google Services
- Google Analytics - for usage statistics
- Google AdSense - for displaying ads (non-premium pages)
Netlify (Hosting)
Our site is hosted on Netlify. They may collect IP addresses for DDoS protection and basic traffic logs.
6. Your Rights
Since we don't collect personal data, traditional data rights (GDPR, CCPA) are simplified:
- Access: All your data is already in your browser
- Deletion: Clear your browser data anytime
- Portability: Export your data using our download features
- Correction: Edit directly in the tools
7. Children's Privacy
MyNetWorth.app is designed for business and personal financial management. We do not knowingly market to or collect information from children under 13.
8. Changes to This Policy
We may update this policy to reflect changes in our practices or for legal reasons. Check the "Last Updated" date above for the most recent version.

California Residents (CCPA)
California residents have specific privacy rights. However, since we don't collect or sell personal information, these rights are inherently protected. We don't sell, rent, or share personal information with third parties for their marketing purposes.
European Residents (GDPR)
For EU residents, our privacy-by-design approach means we're GDPR compliant by default. We don't process personal data on our servers, making us both a minimal data controller and processor.
