Your Financial Numbers Stay in Your Browser

TrueCostCalc calculators run entirely in your web browser. The numbers you enter never leave your device. We do not store, transmit, or have access to any of your financial information.

What We Do Collect

We use standard web server logs that may include your IP address, browser type, and pages visited. This is anonymous technical data used to monitor site performance and security. We do not use this data to identify or track individual users.

Cookies

We use Google Analytics 4 to understand how the site is used in aggregate — which pages and calculators people visit, and which searches led them here. It sets measurement cookies in your browser (for example _ga and _ga_2Y0YFERBPK) so that repeat visits from the same browser are counted as the same visitor rather than as new ones. We do not sell personal information, and we do not use this data to build advertising profiles about you. We may use essential session cookies to ensure the site functions correctly. Affiliate partners we link to may set their own cookies when you visit their sites — please review their privacy policies for details.

Affiliate Links

Some pages on this site are built to carry affiliate links to financial products and services. Where a link pays us, we'll tell you next to the link, and it never changes the price you pay. We only recommend products we believe provide genuine value. Full policy: our affiliate disclosure.
