Privacy Policy

Last updated: October 2026.

This policy explains what information TakeHome Buddy (takehomebuddy.com) handles when you use the site.

Information you enter

The salary, wage, filing status and other values you type into the calculators are processed in your browser. They are not sent to our servers and we do not store them.

Information collected automatically

Like most websites, our hosting provider, Cloudflare, processes standard technical data such as IP address, browser type, requested page and time of request in order to deliver the site, keep it secure and prevent abuse. We do not use this data to identify you.

Cookies and advertising

We use Google AdSense to display ads. Third-party vendors, including Google, use cookies to serve ads based on your prior visits to this and other websites. Google's use of advertising cookies enables it and its partners to serve ads to you based on your visit to this site and other sites on the internet.

• You can opt out of personalized advertising at adssettings.google.com.
• You can learn how Google uses data from sites that use its services at policies.google.com/technologies/partner-sites.
• You can opt out of some third-party vendors' use of cookies for personalized advertising at aboutads.info.

Where required by law, such as for visitors in the European Economic Area, the United Kingdom and Switzerland, we ask for your consent before cookies are used for personalized advertising.

Analytics

We do not currently use a third-party analytics service.

Your choices and rights

You can block or delete cookies in your browser settings, and you can use the opt-out links above. Depending on where you live, such as California or the European Economic Area, you may have the right to ask what personal information is held about you, to request deletion, and to object to certain processing. We do not knowingly maintain personal profiles of visitors. To make a request, contact contact@takehomebuddy.com.

Children

This site is intended for a general audience and is not directed to children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children.

Data retention

We do not store calculator inputs. Technical logs kept by our hosting provider and advertising partners are retained under their own policies.
