Privacy policy
WageBloom minimizes the information needed for calculations and explains the roles of external analytics and advertising services, including the choices available to visitors.
Calculator inputs
Hourly wage, wage reference, work schedule, current assets, saving rate, monthly contribution, return, and inflation inputs are calculated in your browser. WageBloom does not connect these values to an account or store them on an operator-controlled server.
Opening the page again starts from the default values. You do not need to enter a name, Social Security number, contact information, bank account number, or any other directly identifying information.
Vercel Web Analytics
WageBloom uses Vercel Web Analytics to understand aggregate site usage. Information such as page URL, referrer, country or region, browser, operating system, device type, and visit time may be processed.
Vercel describes its default Web Analytics as cookie-free and designed without a cross-site visitor identifier. Aggregate information is used to understand traffic and improve site functions and content.
Vercel Web Analytics privacy informationGoogle AdSense
WageBloom may use Google AdSense advertising to support operating costs. Google and other advertising providers may use cookies, web beacons, IP addresses, or similar technologies to deliver and measure ads.
Advertising cookies may support personalized ads based on visits to this and other sites. You can manage ad personalization through Google Ads Settings. Where required by applicable law, a privacy message may request consent before relevant technologies are used.
Your choices
- Block or delete cookies through your browser settings.
- Use content blocking or browser tracking-prevention tools.
- Turn off ad personalization in Google Ads Settings.
- Disable JavaScript, understanding that the calculator and some analytics or advertising functions may stop working.
Blocking cookies or scripts does not prevent access to the site’s explanatory text, but it can limit the calculator and external service functions.
External links and retention
WageBloom may link to the U.S. Department of Labor, Google, Vercel, GitHub, and other external sites. Their own privacy policies apply after you leave WageBloom.
The operator does not retain calculator inputs. Retention and deletion rules for information processed by external services are governed by each service’s policy.
Updates and questions
This policy and its effective date will be updated when advertising, analytics, or site functions materially change. Privacy questions can be submitted through the public repository Issues page. Do not include personal information in a public issue.
