Privacy Policy

Introduction

FactYou provides neutral, fact-based information about society and its financing. This privacy policy describes how we handle personal data in our service.

Data Controller

Tax Receipt Calculator

Fully local calculation tool

Our tax receipt calculator operates entirely locally in your browser:

• None of your entered data (salary, birth year, municipality, church) is sent to our servers
• All calculations are performed entirely in your browser
• Your data stays only on your device
• We do not store, process, or transmit any calculation-related personal data

Cookies and Tracking

We do not use cookies and we store nothing on your device. The site works entirely without cookies.

Error monitoring and visitor counts (OpsBeaver)

We use OpsBeaver, an observability service we run ourselves on servers at Hetzner in Helsinki, Finland. Its script loads from this site's own address (/_v/), and our server passes the data on without your cookies. When something breaks on a page, your browser sends an error report: the error message, the page path, browser and OS versions, and device type. The report carries no session or visitor identifier, and nothing is stored on your device. Your browser may also report content our security policy blocked (the page address and what was blocked).

When our server sends you a page, it tells OpsBeaver that the page was requested. It sends the page address (the path and the names of any parameters, not their values), campaign tags, the site that referred you, the status code, your browser and operating system versions, your device type and your country. We combine your IP address and browser with a secret to make a daily and a weekly visitor hash. The secret is deleted later, and we don't store the IP address itself. Nothing runs on your device or is read from it for this, so we don't ask for your consent. Our legal basis is legitimate interest: we want to know how many people use the site and where readers come from (GDPR Article 6(1)(f)). If your browser sends a Global Privacy Control signal, we don't count the page view. Visits from search engines and other bots are counted separately from visits by people.
