Privacy Policy

1. Who We Are

NomadCalc operates this website to provide free financial planning tools for remote workers and digital nomads. This policy explains what data we collect, how we use it, and the rights you hold under the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and applicable privacy laws.

2. Data We Collect

NomadCalc collects minimal data. Specifically:

• Calculator inputs — All calculations run locally in your browser. No input data (income, city selection, lifestyle tier) is transmitted to our servers or stored anywhere.
• Cookies — We use a single functional cookie ("ck") to remember your cookie consent preference. This cookie contains no personally identifiable information.
• Server logs — Standard web server logs may record your IP address and browser user-agent string as part of normal HTTP request handling. These logs are retained for up to 30 days and are not used for profiling.

3. How We Use Data

The cookie consent preference is used solely to suppress the consent banner on return visits. No behavioural profiling, retargeting, or third-party data sharing occurs. We do not operate any advertising network integrations.

4. Third-Party Services

This site loads fonts from Google Fonts via a stylesheet request. This causes your browser to connect to Google's servers, which may process your IP address in accordance with Google's privacy policy. No other third-party scripts are loaded.

Cover images in blog posts are served from Unsplash via direct image URL. Unsplash may log the request in accordance with their privacy policy.

5. Your Rights Under GDPR

If you are located in the European Economic Area, you have the following rights regarding any personal data we hold:

• Right to access — request confirmation of what data we hold about you
• Right to erasure — request deletion of personal data we hold
• Right to restriction — request that we limit processing of your data
• Right to object — object to processing based on legitimate interest
• Right to data portability — receive data in a structured, machine-readable format

Given that we do not collect personal data beyond server logs, most of these rights apply in a limited context. To exercise any right, use the contact form on this page or contact us via our website.

6. Data Retention

Server logs are retained for a maximum of 30 days before automatic deletion. The consent cookie ("ck") is stored in your browser's local storage and can be cleared at any time through your browser settings.

7. Cookies in Detail

We use one cookie:

• ck (localStorage key) — Stores value "1" when you click "Accept" on the cookie banner. Used to suppress the banner on subsequent visits. No expiry; persists until browser storage is cleared.

You can withdraw consent at any time by clearing your browser's local storage for this domain. No functional features of the site depend on this cookie.

8. Children's Privacy

This site is not directed at children under 16 years of age. We do not knowingly collect data from minors. If you believe a minor has provided personal data, use the contact form on this page to request its deletion.

9. Changes to This Policy

We may update this policy to reflect changes in our data practices or applicable law. The "Last updated" date at the top of this page will reflect the most recent revision. Continued use of the site following a policy update constitutes acceptance of the revised terms.
