Privacy Policy

Financial information on this device

Calculations run in your browser. The Budget Planner and Your Finances save household entries in browser-local storage so you can return to them in the same browser and on the same device. They can remain after a page closes or the browser restarts, until you clear them or browser settings remove them.

The current site has no FinForFam account system or backend financial-profile database. Saving a household snapshot in browser storage does not, by itself, transmit that snapshot to a FinForFam backend. Browser storage is separate for other profiles and devices.

Optional analytics

Optional Google Analytics helps FinForFam understand use of public tools and guides. On pages using these controls, Google analytics tags load through Google Tag Manager only after analytics is accepted. Until then, no Google analytics measurement requests are sent by this integration.

When accepted, the integration supplies approved static page routes and titles and bounded interactions, such as tool completion, intentional snapshot saving and starting the Contact form. It excludes financial entries, calculated results, saved snapshots and Contact message contents. Fragments and arbitrary query values are excluded; only explicitly approved campaign combinations are retained. Unapproved referral details are removed.

Analytics is not completely anonymous. Google may process identifiers and network and device information.

Your analytics choice

Accept and Reject are available in the analytics controls. Use the Privacy / Analytics Settings button after the footer on this page to reopen them. The control requires JavaScript; intentionally isolated areas of the site may use different analytics policies.

A small versioned preference lasts 180 days in this browser. You can change it sooner. Withdrawing consent stops subsequent collection and clears analytics-owned browser state where accessible, while preserving financial entries and snapshots. It cannot retract information already sent to Google or cancel a request already in transit.

Clearing financial data below is a separate choice: it does not change analytics consent.

Messages you choose to send

The Contact form sends your name, email, selected topic, message and required acknowledgements through the configured Netlify Forms service so FinForFam can respond. These are transmitted information, not browser-only financial entries. Please do not include account numbers, statements or other highly sensitive information.

Sean Plumridge is currently the only FinForFam operator who reviews or handles submitted Contact information. Infrastructure and service providers may necessarily process or retain information to provide their services.

Contact messages may be retained for as long as reasonably necessary to respond to the enquiry, maintain appropriate records, or operate FinForFam. Information that is no longer reasonably required may be deleted as part of normal account and service management. No universal fixed retention period has been established.

The form’s education and privacy acknowledgements are not consent to optional analytics. You can use the form without accepting analytics.

Service providers and reports

Netlify provides site delivery and the configured form service. Serving and protecting a website involves processing request information, such as network and technical details; this is separate from optional usage measurement. Google processes information for the analytics purposes described above.

Analytics and site-measurement reports are sometimes reviewed through authorized tools such as Windsor.ai and ChatGPT for site measurement and product analysis. This account-side reporting is separate from the Contact form and browser-local financial calculations.

Submitted Contact messages are processed through Netlify Forms and can remain in provider systems. Browser data, Contact submissions, analytics events and exported reports have different storage and retention boundaries. An analytics retention setting is not a retention period for Contact messages or other records.

FinForFam does not sell personal information.

Clear financial data on this device

The button removes Budget entries, Your Finances current values and saved history, and FinForFam snapshot/logbook data from this browser on this device. Unrelated settings and static examples remain. Open pages using the current clearing protocol discard their cached entries. Other browser profiles and devices are separate. This does not delete data belonging to other sites or represent deletion of an online account.

A small nonfinancial revision marker remains to prevent cooperating open pages from restoring cleared entries. It contains no balances, categories or history. Safe saving and clearing require browser storage and coordination support. If removal fails, the status names the failure; retained data stays unavailable while deletion is pending. Check browser settings and try clearing again.

Requests and privacy questions

Use Contact to ask about access, correction or deletion of personal information you have submitted. Please describe the request without adding more sensitive information. Clearing browser data does not delete submitted messages or previously collected reports.

A request is not a promise that all information can be erased immediately or from every provider. The handling of submitted information and provider copies needs to be considered separately. You can also email hello@finforfam.ca.
