Privacy policy

What we do not collect

• No name, email address, phone number or postal address.
• No Social Security number, tax identification number or account number.
• No accounts and no passwords — there is nothing to sign in to.
• No lead capture. We do not pass details to tax resolution firms, and we receive nothing if you hire one.

Until 2026-08-20 the calculators displayed forms asking for name, email and phone. Those forms never transmitted or stored anything, and they have been removed. If you used one, no record of it exists.

The calculators

The figures you enter into the offer in compromise, payment plan and penalty calculators, and the answers you give the resolution quiz, are processed entirely in your browser. They are not sent to us or to anyone else, and they are not saved. Close the tab and they are gone. Those calculator and quiz areas are also explicitly masked from Microsoft Clarity recordings.

Analytics

We use Google Analytics 4 to understand which pages people read and which tools get used. Some of those events are sent through an endpoint on this domain which forwards them to Google server-side. It records the usual things — pages viewed, approximate location from your IP address, device and browser type, and how you arrived. Google sets cookies to do this. Google’s handling of that data is governed by its own policies.

We record when a calculator is started, advances a step and is completed, but those events identify the tool and step only. They do not include the figures or answers you entered. The offer in compromise calculator previously sent the debt figure and estimated settlement; both were stopped on 2026-08-20.

We also use Microsoft Clarity for aggregated interaction measurements, heatmaps and session recordings. Clarity masks sensitive text by default, and the calculators and quiz carry an additional explicit mask over the entire tool. Clarity receives page and device information, but not the values or answers entered into those tools. Microsoft’s handling of that data is governed by its own policies.

Cookies and local storage

Google Analytics and, where permitted, Microsoft Clarity set cookies. In regions where Microsoft requires a consent signal and none has been provided, Clarity runs without cookies and some sessions may not be joined together. We also use your browser’s session storage to remember how you arrived — campaign parameters, click identifiers, the page you landed on, the referring site, and a first-touch timestamp — so analytics attributes the visit correctly. It is cleared when you close the tab.

Changes

If we ever add a contact form, a mailing list or anything that collects information about you, this page will say so before it goes live. Ask us what we hold and the answer today is nothing — get in touch if that stops being true.
