Our commitment to financial privacy
CheckAffordability is built to help you understand purchase affordability without compromising your financial privacy. We believe that sensitive financial information should remain under your control, and we have designed the site accordingly.
What we do not collect
- We do not require you to create an account.
- We do not ask for or store your bank login credentials.
- We do not aggregate or connect to your financial accounts.
- We do not sell your information to third parties.
- We do not use tracking pixels or analytics that identify individuals.
What we do collect
The only information we temporarily process is what you enter into the calculators. This data stays entirely in your browser and is never sent to our servers.
- Purchase details (name, price, down payment, financing terms).
- Financial information (income, expenses, debt, savings).
- Assumptions you set for future projections (income growth, expense growth, debt reduction, extra savings).
- Currency selection for display purposes only.
This information is used solely to calculate your results in real time. When you close the browser tab or navigate away, the data is discarded. We do not store it, log it, or use it for any other purpose.
How we handle data
All calculations are performed client-side using JavaScript. No financial data leaves your device unless you explicitly choose to share it (for example, by copying and pasting results elsewhere).
We use essential cookies only to maintain your UI preferences (such as collapsed sections) and to remember your currency selection for the duration of your visit. These cookies contain no financial data and are cleared when you close your browser.
Children's privacy
CheckAffordability does not collect any personal information, whether from adults or children. All calculations are performed client-side in your browser, and no data is stored or transmitted.
Changes to this policy
We may update this privacy policy from time to time. When we do, we will post the updated version on this page with a revised effective date. Your continued use of the site after any changes constitutes your acceptance of the updated policy.
