Privacy Policy
Last updated: February 2026
Overview
childsupport.app ("we," "our," or "the Site") is a free child support estimation tool. We are committed to protecting your privacy. This policy explains what information we collect and how we use it.
No Personal Data Collection
All child support calculations are performed entirely in your browser (client-side). The income figures, custody details, and other information you enter into the calculator are never sent to our servers and are not stored anywhere. When you close or refresh the page, your calculation data is gone.
Analytics & Cookies
We may use privacy-respecting analytics (such as page view counts) to understand how the site is used and improve it. These analytics do not collect personally identifiable information. We do not use advertising trackers or sell any data to third parties.
The site may use essential cookies for functionality such as theme preference (light/dark mode) and language selection. These are stored locally in your browser.
Geolocation
The calculator may request your browser's location to auto-detect your state. This is entirely optional, processed client-side via a third-party geocoding service, and we do not store your location data.
Third-Party Links
Our site contains links to official state government websites and other external resources. We are not responsible for the privacy practices of these external sites.
Children's Privacy
This site is intended for adults. We do not knowingly collect information from children under 13.
Changes to This Policy
We may update this privacy policy from time to time. Any changes will be posted on this page with an updated date.
