Privacy Policy

Effective date: June 4, 2026

My Raise Calculator provides salary raise calculations, inflation-adjusted raise checks, and optional personalized salary negotiation reports. This Privacy Policy explains what information we collect, how we use it, and the choices you have.

This policy is intended to be a clear product privacy notice. It is not legal advice.

Information We Collect

We may collect the following information when you use the site:

  • Calculator inputs: salary amount, pay frequency, raise percentage or raise amount, hours, weeks, desired salary, job title, state, and achievement notes you choose to enter.
  • Report information: generated preview data, paid report content, report IDs, report access tokens, and report status.
  • Email address: if you provide one to receive a report link, checkout updates, or support help.
  • Payment information: payment status, checkout session IDs, order metadata, and customer email from our payment provider. We do not store full card numbers.
  • Usage and device data: pages visited, events such as calculator submissions or checkout starts, browser type, IP-derived information, cookies, and similar technical data.
  • Support messages: any information you send us by email or other support channels.

How We Use Information

We use information to:

  • calculate salary raise results and inflation-adjusted raise context;
  • generate report previews and paid salary negotiation packs;
  • send report access links and payment-related messages;
  • process payments, prevent abuse, and maintain report access;
  • improve the calculator, report quality, and website experience;
  • respond to support requests;
  • comply with legal obligations and protect the service from fraud or misuse.

AI Processing and Gemini

Some report and raise-check features may use third-party AI providers to generate or improve salary negotiation content. Our report generation may use Google Gemini large language models, directly or through API providers that route requests to Gemini-compatible models.

We send only the information needed to produce the requested output, such as salary results, role context, desired salary, state, job title, and user-provided achievement notes. AI providers may process prompts, responses, usage metadata, safety signals, and technical logs according to their own service terms and privacy practices.

Do not enter sensitive personal information that is not needed for your salary negotiation report.

Payments

Payments are processed by third-party payment providers such as Creem. Payment providers may collect payment details directly from you. We receive transaction metadata such as payment status, checkout IDs, customer email, and report ID so we can unlock or retry your report.

Payment Security and Compliance

We do not intentionally collect, store, or process full payment card numbers, card verification codes (CVV/CVC), magnetic stripe data, PIN data, or other sensitive authentication data on our own servers. Card entry and payment authorization are handled by third-party payment processors.

We retain only the payment metadata needed to operate the service, such as report ID, checkout ID, payment status, amount, currency, customer email, timestamps, and provider response metadata. Payment providers are responsible for their own payment security and PCI DSS obligations.

If we become aware that sensitive payment authentication data was submitted to us outside the normal payment flow, we will take reasonable steps to delete it.

Email Delivery

We use email providers such as Forward Email to send report links and support messages. Email delivery providers receive the recipient email address, subject line, message content, and related delivery metadata.

Cookies and Analytics

We may use cookies, local storage, analytics tools, and similar technologies to operate the site, remember basic session information, measure usage, and improve the product. You can control cookies through your browser settings, although some features may not work properly if cookies are disabled.

Sharing Information

We do not sell your personal information. We may share information with:

  • payment processors;
  • email delivery providers;
  • AI service providers;
  • hosting, database, analytics, and infrastructure providers;
  • professional advisers or authorities when required by law;
  • parties involved in a merger, acquisition, or business transfer.

Data Retention

We keep information for as long as needed to provide the service, maintain report access, resolve disputes, prevent abuse, comply with legal obligations, and improve the product. You may request deletion of your information by contacting us.

Security

We use reasonable technical and organizational measures to protect information. No internet service can guarantee absolute security, so you should avoid submitting information that is unnecessary for your report.

Your Choices

You may contact us to request access, correction, or deletion of information associated with your email address or report. We may need to verify your request before acting on it.

Children's Privacy

My Raise Calculator is not intended for children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13.

International Users

If you access the site from outside the United States, your information may be processed in the United States or other countries where our service providers operate.

Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. Updates will be posted on this page with a revised effective date.
