Privacy Policy
Last updated: May 2026
The short version: Budget Dummy doesn't collect, store, or share your personal information. What you enter stays on your screen and goes nowhere else.
What we collect
Budget Dummy is a static, client-side tool. When you use the calculator:
- No income data you enter is transmitted to any server
- No account or registration is required
- No personal information is collected or stored
- All calculations happen locally in your browser
- When you close or refresh the page, all data is gone
Cookies
Budget Dummy does not use cookies for tracking or analytics purposes. If cookies are used in the future (for example, to save preferences), this policy will be updated to reflect that.
Third-party services
Budget Dummy uses Google Fonts to load typography. Google may collect limited technical data (such as your IP address) when fonts are requested. You can review Google's privacy policy at policies.google.com/privacy.
In the future, Budget Dummy may display advertising through Google AdSense. If and when that happens, this policy will be updated to describe how advertising data is handled.
Analytics
Budget Dummy does not currently use any analytics tools. If analytics are added in the future to help improve the tool, this policy will be updated and users will be informed.
Children's privacy
Budget Dummy does not knowingly collect any information from children under the age of 13. The tool is intended for general audiences seeking personal finance guidance.
Changes to this policy
If this privacy policy changes, the updated version will be posted here with a revised date. We encourage you to review it periodically.
