Privacy Policy

Last updated: 1 June 2026

Overview

Raise Calculator ("we", "our", "the Site") is a static web application deployed on Cloudflare Pages. We are committed to operating with full transparency about how this site works and what, if any, data is processed when you use it.

The short version: we do not collect, store, or transmit any personally identifiable information. The calculator runs entirely in your browser. No input you enter is ever sent to a server.

Technical Architecture

This site is built with Astro and deployed as a fully static bundle on Cloudflare Pages. There is no application server, no database, and no user-facing API. All pages are pre-rendered HTML files served from Cloudflare's global edge network.

The calculator itself operates as a client-side state machine. When you enter your pay, country, occupation, and other inputs into the form, those values are processed entirely within your browser's JavaScript runtime using a pre-loaded dataset compiled into the page bundle. At no point are your inputs transmitted over the network to any server — ours or anyone else's.

No cookies are set by this site's own application code. No local storage or session storage is written with your calculator inputs. When you close or reload the page, all form data is gone.

What We Do Not Collect

  • → Your name, email address, or any contact information (unless you voluntarily submit the contact form)
  • → Your salary, pay rate, or any financial figures you enter into the calculator
  • → Your country, region, occupation, or any other calculator inputs
  • → Your IP address (Cloudflare may log this at the infrastructure layer — see Cloudflare's own privacy policy)
  • → Browser fingerprint data or device identifiers from our own scripts
