Privacy Policy

Introduction

WorthCheck.in ("we," "our," or "us") is committed to protecting your privacy. This policy explains what data we collect (spoiler: barely anything) and how we handle it.

We built WorthCheck.in because we were annoyed by finance apps that wanted access to our bank accounts just to show a pie chart. So we made something different.

🚫What We DON'T Collect

We do not collect, store, or transmit any financial data you enter into our calculators.

When you enter your salary, investments, assets, or liabilities into any of our calculators, that data stays on your device. The calculations happen right in your browser using JavaScript. We literally cannot see your numbers - there's no server receiving them.

📊 What We DO Collect

We collect limited, non-personal information to understand how people use our website:

Google Analytics

We use Google Analytics to see basic traffic data like:

• Which pages are popular (so we know which calculators people actually use)
• How visitors found us (Google search, Reddit link, etc.)
• General device info (mobile vs desktop)
• Country/city level location (not your exact address, relax)

This data is anonymized and aggregated. We can't identify you personally from analytics.

Cookies

We use a few cookies:

• Analytics cookies: Google Analytics uses these for session tracking
• Preference cookies: If you set a theme preference, we store that locally

You can disable cookies in your browser settings. The calculators will still work fine.

Third-Party Services

Google Analytics

We use Google Analytics for website analytics. Google may collect information like your IP address (anonymized), browser type, and pages visited. See Google's Privacy Policy for details.

You can opt out of Google Analytics using browser extensions like Google's opt-out add-on.

📢 Advertising

We display advertisements on our website through Ezoic, an advertising technology platform. This helps us keep our calculators free to use.

What Ezoic Collects

Ezoic and its advertising partners may collect:

• Information about your browsing activities across websites over time
• Device information (browser type, screen size, operating system)
• IP address (used for general location and fraud prevention)
• Ad impressions and click data
• Cookies and similar tracking technologies for personalized advertising
• Unique IDs, advertising IDs, and geolocation data
• Hashed or encrypted email (if provided)

Cookies & Tracking

A cookie is a small text file sent to your device by a web server that enables the website to remember information about your browsing activity. Ezoic and its partners deploy third-party cookies, tags, beacons, and pixels to monitor ad interactions and optimize targeting.

Disabling cookies may restrict certain content access. Rejecting cookies will still show ads, but they will be non-personalized.

Personalized Advertising

Ezoic and partners combine collected data with independently gathered information to deliver targeted ads across multiple platforms. Partners may collect additional data such as unique IDs, advertising IDs, geolocation data, usage data, device information, traffic data, and referral sources to create audience segments for cross-device advertising.

Consent Management

When you first visit our website, you may see a consent banner asking for your preferences regarding cookies and personalized advertising. You can manage your choices at any time.

Opting Out

You can opt out of personalized advertising through:

• The consent management banner on our website
• Your browser's privacy settings (e.g., "Do Not Track")
• Your Online Choices (for EU users)
• Digital Advertising Alliance opt-out
• Emailing privacy@ezoic.com to request data deletion

🛡️ Data Security

Since we don't collect your financial data, there's nothing sensitive to protect on our end. Your financial calculations stay entirely on your device.

Our website uses HTTPS encryption for all connections. Any data transmitted between your browser and our servers (basically just the website files) is encrypted.

Your Rights

You have the right to:

• Disable cookies in your browser
• Opt out of Google Analytics tracking
• Clear your browser's local storage to remove any preferences
• Use our calculators without providing any personal information (which you already can)

Children's Privacy

Our website isn't directed at children under 13. We don't knowingly collect personal information from children. Though honestly, if a 12-year-old is calculating their retirement corpus, that's pretty impressive.

Changes to This Policy

If we update this policy, we'll post the changes here and update the date at the top. But honestly, our privacy stance is simple: we don't want your data. That's unlikely to change.
