Privacy notice
In short
This site is built to need almost no information about you. The calculators run entirely in your browser. Anything you save (a budget, a snapshot, checklist ticks) is stored only on your own device and never sent to us. We do not use tracking, advertising or analytics cookies.
Our privacy approach
Family and Personal Finances is designed around data minimisation: the best way to protect your information is not to collect it. This notice explains what that means in practice. It is written to reflect the Australian Privacy Principles under the Privacy Act 1988 (Cth).
What we do not collect
- We do not ask you to create an account.
- We do not collect the figures you enter into the calculators. They are processed in your browser and never transmitted to us.
- We do not use advertising, tracking or analytics cookies, and we do not fingerprint or profile you.
- We do not sell, rent or share personal information for advertising.
- We do not send your inputs to any artificial-intelligence service.
Information stored on your own device
Some tools offer to save your entries so they are there next time - the budget planner, the money snapshot, and checklist ticks. This uses your browser’s local storage, which:
- stays on your device only and is never sent to us or anyone else;
- is visible only in the browser you saved it in;
- can be deleted by you at any time using the delete buttons in each tool, the Delete all saved data button, or by clearing your browser’s site data.
Because saved data stays in the browser, avoid saving your figures on a shared or public computer. If you do, use the delete buttons before you leave, or use a private/incognito window.
Standard web server information
Like almost all websites, the web server hosting this site may automatically record basic technical information in its logs (such as your IP address, browser type, and the pages requested) for security and to keep the site running. This is standard hosting operation, is not used to identify or profile you, and is not combined with the figures you enter into tools. Retention follows the hosting provider’s standard log settings.
If you contact us
If you email or contact SupportCALL to report an error or ask a question, we will hold what you send us only as long as needed to respond and to maintain the site, and we will not use it for marketing without your consent.
Your rights
Under the Privacy Act you can ask what personal information (if any) we hold about you, ask us to correct it, and make a complaint. As set out above, we hold very little. To make a request, contact SupportCALL via supportcall.com.au. If you are not satisfied with our response, you can contact the Office of the Australian Information Commissioner at oaic.gov.au.
