How we handle data for visitors worldwide, including US state privacy rights.
Last updated: October 15, 2026
Numbers you type into our calculators are processed locally in your web browser and are not sent to or stored on our servers. We do not require user accounts. We do use cookies and similar technologies from third parties, mainly Google, to serve ads and analyze website traffic performance.
We do not knowingly collect sensitive personal data or private financial account credentials.
Information is used to operate and secure the platform, analyze tool utilization, respond to user inquiries, and serve display advertisements that keep our service completely free.
We use Google AdSense to serve advertisements. Google and its advertising partners use cookies and device identifiers, including DoubleClick cookies, to serve ads based on prior visits to this and other websites on the internet. Learn more in How Google uses information from sites or apps that use our services. You can manage personalized ad settings at Google Ad Settings or opt out of interest-based ads via aboutads.info or Network Advertising Initiative.
Residents of California and other US states with active privacy regulations (including Virginia, Colorado, Connecticut, Utah, Texas, Oregon, and others) may have specific rights regarding personal data, subject to local state law:
Do Not Sell or Share My Personal Information. Displaying personalized advertisements through ad partners may qualify as "sharing" or "targeted advertising" under certain state laws. To exercise your opt-out rights, use the privacy banner provided on this site, manage settings in Google Ad Settings, or submit a request via our contact page. We honor opt-out preference signals like Global Privacy Control (GPC) where required by law.
Our legal basis for processing data includes your consent (for advertising cookies and tracking technologies) and our legitimate interest in operating and securing this website. Where legally required, consent is requested before presenting personalized ads. Users retain the right to access, rectify, erase, restrict, or transfer their personal data, or submit complaints to their local Data Protection Authority.
You can block or remove cookies through your web browser configuration settings. While blocking cookies may alter ad presentation, interactive financial calculators will remain fully functional.
Log files and technical records are retained only as long as necessary for security monitoring and operations. We maintain reasonable administrative and technical security measures to protect user data.
FinMetric Tools is not intended for children under 13 years of age (or under 16 where applicable by local law). We do not knowingly collect personal data from minors.
Our pages may contain links to external websites. We do not control and are not responsible for the privacy practices or content of third-party platforms.
