Privacy Policy
Last updated: April 2026
TaxGrader ("we," "us," or "our") operates taxgrader.com. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, and protect your information.
Analytics
We use Umami, a privacy-focused, cookieless analytics tool, to understand how visitors use our site. Umami does not use cookies, does not track users across websites, and does not collect personally identifiable information. All analytics data is aggregated and anonymous.
Cookies
TaxGrader does not set any cookies. Our analytics tool (Umami) is cookieless by design. We do not use tracking pixels, fingerprinting, or any cross-site tracking technology.
Calculator Data
All tax calculator inputs and results are processed entirely in your browser. Your financial data is never transmitted to our servers, stored in any database, or shared with third parties.
Information We Collect
We collect minimal information necessary to operate the site:
- Contact form submissions: If you contact us, we receive the information you voluntarily provide (such as your email address and message content).
- Aggregated analytics: Page views, referral sources, browser type, and device type, all collected without cookies or personal identifiers.
How We Use Information
- To respond to your inquiries
- To improve site content and user experience
- To understand aggregate traffic patterns
Third-Party Services
We may include affiliate links to third-party services (such as tax preparation software). When you click these links, you leave TaxGrader, and the third party's privacy policy governs your data. We receive referral commissions but do not share your data with affiliates.
Your Rights (CCPA / CPA)
If you are a California or Colorado resident, you have the right to:
- Know what personal information we collect about you
- Request deletion of your personal information
- Opt out of the sale of personal information (we do not sell personal data)
- Non-discrimination for exercising your privacy rights
Data Deletion
Since we do not collect personal data through analytics and calculator data stays in your browser, there is typically no personal data to delete. If you have contacted us and wish to have your correspondence removed, please reach out through our contact page.
Children's Privacy
TaxGrader is not directed at children under 13. We do not knowingly collect information from children.
Changes to This Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. Changes will be posted on this page with an updated revision date.
