How Our Calculator Works
Understanding how our calculator operates helps explain our privacy commitment:
Local Processing
All calculations happen directly in your web browser using JavaScript. Your selections never leave your device.
Static Data
BAH rate data is loaded once when you visit the page. This data contains no personal information, only official DoD rate tables.
No Server Communication
Once the page loads, no data is sent to our servers. Your calculator usage is completely private and offline-capable.
Cookies and Tracking
Third-Party Services
Our commitment to privacy extends to our choice of external services:
No External Analytics
We do not use Google Analytics, Facebook Pixel, or other tracking services that collect user data.
No Social Media Integration
We do not embed social media sharing buttons or widgets that can track your browsing.
No Advertising Networks
We do not display ads or use advertising networks that collect personal information.
