Privacy Policy

Your privacy is important to us. Learn how we protect your data at OBBB Tax Guide.

Overview

OBBB Tax Guide ("we," "our," or "us") is committed to protecting your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains how information is collected, used, and disclosed when you use our website at obbbtaxguide.com.

Key Point: Our tax calculator runs entirely in your browser. We do NOT collect, store, or transmit your tax calculation data to our servers.

Information We Don't Collect

We want to be clear about what we do NOT collect:

  • Social Security Numbers (SSNs) - We never request or store SSNs
  • Tax Returns - We do not access, collect, or store your tax return data
  • Personal Financial Information - Income, bank accounts, investment details, etc.
  • Calculator Data - All tax calculations are performed locally in your browser
  • Sensitive Personal Information - Addresses, phone numbers, employment details

Client-Side Processing: Our tax calculator runs entirely in your web browser using JavaScript. When you enter information and click "calculate," the math happens on your device, not our servers. Your data never leaves your computer.
