This Privacy Policy describes how The Path to Sound Retirement (“the Tool,” “we,” “us,” or “our”), created by Jasper Saunders, handles information when you use the website and calculator.

1. Information We Collect

The Path to Sound Retirement is designed to run entirely in your browser. We do not collect, store, or transmit any of the financial numbers you enter (portfolio balances, contributions, spending needs, etc.). All calculations happen locally on your device.

We may collect limited technical information through standard web analytics or advertising services if enabled in the future, such as:

• IP address, browser type, device type, and approximate location
• Pages visited and time spent on the site
• Referring website or search terms

2. How We Use Information

Any technical data collected is used only to improve the Tool, understand usage patterns, and (if advertising is added) display relevant ads. We do not sell personal information.

3. Cookies and Third-Party Services

The Tool currently uses the following third-party services that may set cookies or similar technologies:

• Tailwind CSS CDN
• Chart.js
• jsPDF
• Font Awesome
• Google Fonts

If Google AdSense or other advertising is added in the future, those services will set their own cookies. You can manage cookie preferences through your browser settings.

4. Data Storage and Security

Because calculations run client-side, your retirement planning inputs never leave your device. We take reasonable measures to protect the website itself, but no method of transmission over the Internet is 100% secure.

5. Children’s Privacy

This Tool is not directed at children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children.

6. Your Rights

Depending on your location, you may have rights to access, correct, or delete certain information. Contact us using the details below if you have questions.

7. Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. The “Last updated” date at the top will reflect the most recent version.

8. Contact Us
