Privacy policy

In short: we do not collect your personal information. Your calculations stay on your device.

Written by the CalcTortoise editorial team · How we work

Who we are

CalcTortoise is operated by KRD Technologies, India.

What we do not collect

  • There are no accounts, sign-ups or forms that ask for your name, email or phone.
  • The figures you type into a calculator are worked out in your own browser. They are not sent to us or stored on any server.
  • The site sets no cookies and uses no advertising or tracking scripts.

What stays on your device

When you pick a chart view, your browser remembers the choice in its local storage so the next calculator opens with the same view. It never leaves your device, and you can clear it at any time through your browser's site-data settings.

Expense Tracker and your statements

When you add a PhonePe or bank statement to the Expense Tracker, the file is read inside your own browser tab. It is not uploaded, and nothing from it is sent to us or anyone else. If a PDF needs a password, the password is used only to open the file and is never saved. Close the tab and the transactions are gone. Only the category you pick for a payee (for example "Rent") is remembered in your browser, so you do not have to pick it again. Use Clear everything on this device on that page to remove it.

Household Budget

The numbers you type into the Household Budget (pay, rent or EMI, and the amounts for each line) are remembered only in your own browser, on this device, so the page opens as you left it. They are never sent to us or anyone else. If you use the averages from the Expense Tracker, they pass between the two pages inside your browser tab only. Use Clear everything on this device on the budget page to remove what is remembered.

Share links

When you use Copy link or Share on WhatsApp, the figures you entered are written into the web address so the person you send it to sees the same result. Anyone with the link can see those figures, so share it only with people you choose. Sending through WhatsApp is covered by WhatsApp's own privacy policy.

Hosting

The site is hosted on Cloudflare Pages. Like any web host, Cloudflare processes technical information such as your IP address and browser type in order to deliver pages and protect the site from attacks. This is governed by Cloudflare's privacy policy. We do not use this information to identify you.

Your rights in India (DPDP Act, 2023)

Under India's Digital Personal Data Protection Act, 2023 you may ask to see the personal data we hold about you, ask us to correct or delete it, and raise a grievance with us. If you are not satisfied with our reply you may complain to the Data Protection Board of India. We collect almost no personal data, so there is usually little to show or delete.

Grievances

Our Grievance Team handles privacy complaints and requests. Write to [email protected]. We will reply within 30 days.

Children

The site is meant for adults. We do not knowingly collect personal information from anyone under 18, and in the US not from children under 13 (COPPA).

For readers in the United States

We do not sell or share personal information. The site is not directed to children under 13. California residents may ask us what personal information we hold about them; because we collect almost none, the answer will usually be nothing. Use the grievance contact above.

Links to other websites

Some pages link to official and other websites. Their privacy practices are their own; please read their policies.

Changes to this policy

If we ever add analytics, advertising or anything else that handles personal data, we will update this page before it starts, and say what is collected, why, and how you can opt out. The same applies if we ever turn on affiliate links: this policy and a clear disclosure next to each such link will be in place first. The date at the bottom shows when the policy last changed.
