Privacy
The short version
Your salary data never leaves your device. Not encrypted-and-sent. Not anonymized-and-stored. Never leaves. Period.
How this actually works
Unpakk has no backend. There is no server receiving your CTC, no database storing your salary, no API logging your tax bracket.
The entire tax engine is TypeScript running in your browser. When you type ₹18 LPA and hit calculate, the math happens on your phone or laptop — the same way a calculator app works. The result exists in your browser’s memory and nowhere else.
When you close the tab, the calculation is gone.
What we don’t have
- No user accounts
- No database
- No server that receives salary data
- No cookies on the calculators, comparison pages, or salary-bracket pages — not even analytics cookies
- No Google Analytics or any tracker that fingerprints you
- No third-party scripts on tool pages that phone home with your data
What we do have
- Umami analytics (cloud) — counts page views, nothing personal. No cookies, no IP storage, no fingerprinting. We know “someone visited /salary” — not “Rahul from Bengaluru calculated ₹24 LPA.”
- Google AdSense — Learn guides only — see Advertising on Unpakk below. Never on a calculator, comparison, or salary-bracket page.
- Static hosting on Hostinger — the site is pre-built HTML, CSS, and JavaScript. Hostinger serves files; it doesn’t process your inputs.
- Affiliate links (may include some on certain pages) — if we link to a tax-saving product (ELSS, NPS), that link may earn us a commission and will be clearly marked. Even then, your calculation data is never shared with the affiliate.
Advertising on Unpakk
Unpakk runs Google AdSense ads on our Learn guides only — never on the calculators, comparison pages, or salary-bracket pages. On those guide pages, Google may set cookies to serve and measure ads, including personalising ads based on your visit to this and other sites. You can see what Google collects and manage ad personalisation at Google’s Ads Settings, or read Google’s ad technology policy. If you’re in the EU, UK, or Switzerland, you can also manage choices via youronlinechoices.eu.
Log files
Like any website, our hosting provider automatically logs standard technical data for every visit — IP address, browser type, and timestamp — for security and uptime purposes. This is infrastructure-level logging by Hostinger, not something Unpakk’s application code collects, stores, or uses; it’s never tied to anything you type into a calculator.
How to verify this yourself
- Open DevTools → Network tab while using any calculator. You’ll see zero outbound requests carrying your salary data.
- Turn off your internet after the page loads. The calculators still work. If your data needed a server, they wouldn’t.
- Check the same tab on a
/learnguide. That’s the only place you’ll see a request to Google’s ad network — and even there, nothing you’ve typed into a calculator ever leaves your browser, because guides don’t have calculator inputs to leak.
What this page is not
This isn’t a copy-pasted privacy policy full of vague “we may collect” language for data we don’t actually touch. Where we genuinely don’t collect something — your salary, your PAN, your name — we say so plainly. Where a real third party is involved (Google AdSense, on guides only), we say exactly what it does and how to opt out, because that disclosure is required and it’s the honest thing to do either way.
