Privacy Policy

Last updated: May 3, 2026

Introduction

This privacy policy explains how freelancer-year-end-tax-packet-assembler.hub2.day ("the site," "we," or "us") handles information when you visit or use our free web utility for freelancers, gig workers, and independent contractors. The site helps you generate a personalized, printable year-end tax packet with deduction categories, quarterly estimated tax worksheets, and document checklists based on your income type and state.

Information We Collect

Browser-Local Inputs

The tax packet assembler runs primarily in your browser. Income amounts, deduction selections, state choices, and other inputs you enter are processed locally on your device to generate your packet. We do not transmit or store your personal financial inputs on our servers unless you explicitly choose to send us a message through the contact email.

Contact Email

If you email us at hello@freelancer-year-end-tax-packet-assembler.hub2.day, we collect the information you voluntarily provide in your message (such as your email address and message content) so we can respond to your inquiry. We do not use contact emails for marketing or share them with third parties except as required by law.

Server and Security Logs

Our hosting provider may automatically collect standard server log data when you visit the site, including your IP address, browser type, operating system, referring pages, pages visited, and timestamps. These logs are used solely for security, abuse prevention, and basic operational monitoring. Server logs are retained for no longer than 90 days unless needed to investigate a security incident.
