Summary

Finance Nerd does not collect, store, or transmit any personal or financial data. Your data never leaves your browser. There are no user accounts, no cookies, and no third-party tracking scripts.

Data Storage

All data you enter into the tracker is stored exclusively in a JSONfile on your computer. On Chrome and Edge, the tracker can auto-save directly to a local file using the browser's File System Access API. On other browsers, you download the file manually.

The only piece of information stored in your browser's local storage is the filename of your last-opened tracker file, so the app can display it on the welcome screen. This can be cleared by clearing your browser data.

Analytics

This site does not use any client-side analytics, tracking pixels, or fingerprinting. We use Google Search Console to understand how the site appears in search results. Search Console data is provided by Google based on search queries and does not involve any tracking code on this site.

No Cookies

This site does not set any cookies. There are no first-party cookies, no third-party cookies, and no cookie consent banners because none are needed.

Third-Party Services

When you use the "Refresh Prices" feature in the investment tracker, market price data is fetched from third-party financial APIs. These requests go directly from your browser to the API provider; no data passes through our servers.

Intellectual Property

All content, code, and design on this site are the property of Finance Nerd. All rights reserved. Unauthorized reproduction or distribution is prohibited.
