Privacy Policy

Introduction

At Global Salary Calculator, we take your privacy seriously. This Privacy Policy describes how we collect, use, and process your information when you visit our website.

Calculator Data Processing (Local Only)

None of the salary or tax information you enter into our calculators is sent to our servers or stored in any database. All salary calculations are processed locally inside your web browser window. Your financial details remain completely private to you.

Information We Collect Automatically

When you access the site, standard usage data is collected automatically through third-party services:

• Google Analytics: We use Google Analytics to monitor traffic levels, identify popular pages, and optimize user experience. This service tracks non-personally identifiable information such as device type, browser model, approximate location (country/city derived from IP), and traffic source.
• Log Files: Like most web servers, standard server logs containing your IP address, browser user-agent, and visited pages are generated for security, rate-limiting, and maintenance purposes.

Google AdSense and Cookies

This website may serve advertisements provided by Google AdSense. In order to serve relevant ads, Google sets and accesses cookies on your device:

• Google, as a third-party vendor, uses cookies to serve ads on Global Salary Calculator.
• Google's use of advertising cookies enables it and its partners to serve ads to our users based on their visits to this site and/or other sites on the Internet.
• Users may opt out of personalized advertising by visiting the Google Ads Settings page. Alternatively, you can opt out of a third-party vendor's use of cookies for personalized advertising by visiting www.aboutads.info.

GDPR and CCPA Data Protection Rights

Depending on your location, you may have specific data protection rights under the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) or the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA). These include:

• The right to access: You have the right to request copies of any personal data we hold about you.
• The right to rectification: You have the right to request that we correct any information you believe is inaccurate.
• The right to erasure: You have the right to request that we erase your personal data, under certain conditions.
• The right to restrict or object to processing: You have the right to request that we restrict or object to the processing of your personal data.

Since we do not collect, store, or transmit personal data or salary values, we generally do not hold any personal records that can be accessed or erased. If you contact us via our email or contact form, we will only use your name and email to respond to your inquiry.

Third-Party Links

Our guides, calculator resources, and blog posts contain links to official government tax portals (such as SARS, HMRC, KRA, URA, and FIRS/NRS). We are not responsible for the privacy practices or the content of these third-party web sites.
