Mortgage Freedom Calculator ("we," "us," or "our") operates mortgagefreedomcalculator.com. This Privacy Policy explains what information we collect, how we use it, and your rights regarding your data.
Information We Collect
We collect only what is necessary to provide our service:
- Calculator inputs: Values you enter into our mortgage calculators (loan amount, interest rate, etc.) are processed entirely in your browser and are never transmitted to or stored on our servers.
- Email address: If you subscribe to our newsletter, we collect your email address through our email service provider, Kit (ConvertKit). This is voluntary.
- Usage data: We may collect anonymized data about how visitors interact with the site (pages visited, time on page) through Cloudflare's built-in analytics. This data contains no personally identifiable information.
How We Use Your Information
- To send you the weekly mortgage rate digest and educational content you subscribed to
- To improve the site's content and tools based on aggregated usage patterns
- We do not sell, rent, or share your personal information with third parties for marketing purposes
Email Subscriptions
If you subscribe to our newsletter, your email is stored with Kit (ConvertKit), our email service provider. You can unsubscribe at any time using the unsubscribe link in any email we send. Kit's privacy policy is available at convertkit.com/privacy.
Cookies
This site does not use tracking cookies or advertising cookies. Cloudflare, our hosting provider, may set a cookie for security purposes (bot detection). No third-party advertising or analytics cookies are placed on your device.

Data Retention
Email addresses are retained until you unsubscribe. Anonymized analytics data is retained per Cloudflare's standard retention policy. We do not retain any calculator input data as none is transmitted to our servers.
