Privacy Policy
This Privacy Policy explains how FIRE Engine ("we", "us") handles information when you use our FIRE calculator website (the "Site"). By using the Site, you agree to this policy.
Calculator data stays in your browser
The FIRE calculator runs entirely on your device using client-side JavaScript. The financial figures you enter — age, net worth, income, expenses, and rates — are never transmitted to us or stored on any server. When you close or refresh the page, that data is gone.
Information collected automatically
Like most websites, our hosting provider and analytics may automatically collect standard technical information such as your IP address, browser type, device type, referring page, and pages visited. This is used to understand aggregate traffic and keep the Site secure and functioning.
Cookies and advertising
This Site is supported by advertising and may display ads provided by third-party ad networks, including Google AdSense. These partners may use cookies, web beacons, or similar technologies to serve ads based on your prior visits to this and other websites, and to measure ad performance.
- Third-party vendors, including Google, use cookies to serve ads based on your prior visits to this and other websites.
- Google's use of advertising cookies enables it and its partners to serve ads to you based on your visits to this and/or other sites on the internet.
- You can opt out of personalized advertising by visiting Google Ads Settings, or opt out of a third-party vendor's use of cookies for personalized advertising at aboutads.info/choices.
- Where required by law — including under the GDPR in the European Economic Area (EEA), the UK, and Switzerland — visitors are shown a consent message from a Google-certified Consent Management Platform (CMP) before personalized ads or non-essential cookies are used. You can choose to consent, decline, or manage your options, and change your choice at any time via the consent controls.
These advertising providers operate under their own privacy policies. See Google's advertising privacy policy for details on how Google uses data.
Your choices
You can disable cookies in your browser settings and use browser privacy or tracking-protection features at any time. Doing so will not affect the calculator, which works without cookies.
Children's privacy
The Site is not directed to children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from them.
Changes to this policy
We may update this policy periodically. Changes take effect when posted on this page with a revised "Last updated" date.
