Privacy

The rest of this page is the detail behind those four lines: exactly what we collect, where it goes, and how to ask us to delete it. If something here ever stops being true, this page changes to match — not the other way around.

The free tools run in your browser

The invoice generator, the quote generator, and the three calculators (rate, markup & margin, late fee) all do their work on your device, in the page, right now — there’s no server involved in the math. A client’s name, a job amount, a line item: none of it is ever transmitted, and none of it is stored on our side. We couldn’t show you what you typed into one of these tools if you asked us to, because we never had it.

One thing is kept on your device, and only if you ask for it: the “turn this quote into an invoice” hand-off. When you click that button, the quote generator puts the details into your browser tab’s own storage so the invoice generator can pick them up on the next page. The invoice generator deletes them the instant it reads them, and anything left over disappears when you close the tab. It never leaves your device, and it never reaches us. The three calculators have no hand-off and write nothing at all.

To be precise about what that promise covers and what it doesn’t: visiting a tool’s page still counts as a page view, the same as any other page on this site (see “How we count visits” below) — so we can tell that a tool page was opened. What we can’t tell, and never ask for, is what you typed into it. “What you type into a tool never leaves your browser” is the honest version of the claim; “we don’t know you were here” isn’t.

If you ask for early access

The early-access form asks for your name and email, and optionally your business name and a note. If you fill it in, those fields — plus which page and campaign sent you, and a random id for your visit — go to a relay so a person can read it and reply. That’s the whole reason it exists: it is not a newsletter list and nothing on it is sold or shared. Submitting the form also logs an anonymous event to the analytics described below, so we can tell the form is working — but that event never carries your name, email, or note, only whether you filled in the optional business field (yes/no) and which topic you picked from a fixed list. Optional fields you leave blank arrive empty; there’s nothing in them to read.

How we count visits

We use first-party, cookieless analytics — worth being precise about what that means. It is not “we store nothing on your device.” It’s no cookies, but two random ids that identify a visit without identifying you: bb_anon_id, held in your browser’s localStorage so we can tell repeat visits from new ones, and bb_session_id, held in sessionStorage and cleared when you close the tab. Alongside those, we keep a snapshot of the campaign/referrer that brought you here (things like a UTM parameter or which site linked to us), so we can tell which guide or ad actually works — not so we can identify you.

Two of those are worth calling out on their own, because they’re the ones people actually worry about: searching this site (via the ⌘K overlay or /search/) never sends the words you typed — only how long the query was and how many results it found. And your email address, if you give it to us, is never hashed or folded into analytics in any form — it exists only in the early-access relay, for replying to you.

Your data, your call

If you want to know what we hold on you, or want it deleted, ask through the early-access form — mention that’s what you’re asking for, and a person will read it and respond. We don’t keep a public support address on this site; that form is the one channel that reaches us, so it’s also the one channel for this. During early access we keep what you send us until you ask us to delete it — we don’t yet have a fixed retention period to promise beyond that, and we’d rather say so plainly than invent one.

This is a young, self-funded product built by a small team — see who’s behind it. We’ll update this page as that changes, and the date at the top will always say when it last did.
