Privacy Policy

1. Introduction & Overview

Freelance Toolkit ("we", "us", or "our"), provisionally hosted at https://freelancetoolkit.xyz, is committed to respecting and protecting the privacy of our visitors. This Privacy Policy describes how information is handled when you visit our website, use our free tools (including the Project Pricing Calculator, Proposal Builder, and Client Onboarding Checklist), or download our templates.

2. Information Processed Locally by Our Interactive Tools

We believe in privacy by design. Our interactive tools are built to run client-side in your web browser:

• Pricing Calculator: The hours, rates, expenses, and tax figures you enter are processed entirely within your browser's JavaScript engine. We do not store, transmit, or record your financial inputs.
• Proposal Builder: Client names, company details, pricing, and deliverable descriptions are kept locally in browser memory. When you print or copy a proposal, no data is sent to our servers.
• Onboarding Checklist Generator: Your completed task checkboxes are saved exclusively in your browser's localStorage so you can return to your checklist without losing progress. You can clear this data at any time by clearing your browser cache or clicking "Reset Defaults".

3. Standard Log Files & Hosting Infrastructure

Like virtually all websites, our hosting providers (such as Vercel) automatically collect standard server log data when you load pages. This information may include:

• Internet Protocol (IP) addresses.
• Browser type and operating system version.
• Referring/exit pages and timestamp stamps.
• Pages viewed and server response times.

This data is used strictly for server health, DDoS protection, traffic diagnostics, and technical stability. Log data is not linked to any personally identifiable information.

4. Contact Form Inquiries

When you submit an inquiry through our contact form, you provide your name, email address, and message. We use this information solely to answer your questions or process your feedback. We do not add your email to marketing lists without explicit consent, nor do we sell or transfer contact information to third parties.

5. Advertising & Future AdSense Readiness Disclosures

To keep our tools, templates, and guides 100% free, we may apply to display advertisements through advertising networks such as Google AdSense in the future.

When advertising is active:

• Third-party vendors, including Google, may use cookies to serve ads based on a user's prior visits to this website or other websites.
• Google's use of advertising cookies enables it and its partners to serve ads to users based on their visit to our site and/or other sites on the Internet.
• Users may opt out of personalized advertising by visiting Google Ads Settings or www.aboutads.info.

We do not display deceptive ad formats, pop-unders, auto-redirecting scripts, or ads that masquerade as navigation elements or tool controls.

6. Your Data Rights & Contact Information

Depending on your location (such as the European Economic Area under GDPR or California under CCPA), you may have rights to access, correct, or request deletion of personal information you have provided to us (such as contact messages).
