We may collect the following types of information:

  • Usage information: We collect anonymized analytics data such as pages visited, features used, and general interaction patterns to improve the Service.
  • Device information: We may collect basic device and browser information (e.g., browser type, operating system, screen resolution) for compatibility and performance purposes.

3. Information We Do Not Collect

Your pay stub content stays in your browser. All pay stub data — including employee names, employer details, wages, deductions, and any other information you enter into the builder — is processed entirely on your device using client-side technology. This data is stored locally in your browser (localStorage) and is never transmitted to or stored on our servers. We cannot access, view, or recover your pay stub content.

4. How We Use Your Information

  • Provide, maintain, and improve the Service

  • Detect and prevent fraud or abuse
  • Comply with legal obligations

We do not sell your personal information to third parties.

5. Data Storage and Security

All pay stub content is stored locally in your browser and never leaves your device. The minimal analytics data we collect is processed using industry-standard security measures. While we take reasonable steps to protect this data, no method of electronic transmission is 100% secure.

6. Cookies

We may use cookies and similar technologies for essential site functionality. Our analytics providers may also set cookies to collect anonymized usage data. You can control cookie preferences through your browser settings, though disabling cookies may affect certain features of the Service.
