What House Economics stores, what gets logged, and how to clear your local data.
Last updated October 2026
Calculations on House Economics happen in your browser. The inputs you enter into a calculator stay in your browser’s local storage so they persist between visits and across calculators that share fields.
What we store locally
We use your browser’s localStorage to persist your
calculator inputs. These values stay on your device and are never sent to
us. The Reset button on each calculator clears that
calculator’s inputs (fields shared across calculators, like home
price, are kept). To clear everything, use your browser’s site
settings, or DevTools → Application → Local Storage → delete
keys starting with he:.
Hosting and analytics
The site is hosted on Cloudflare. To serve pages and protect the site from abuse, Cloudflare processes standard request data (IP address, user agent, referring URL, requested page). We don’t receive raw request logs; we only see aggregate traffic numbers.
We use Cloudflare Web Analytics to understand which pages get used. It doesn’t set cookies, doesn’t use local storage, and doesn’t fingerprint or track you across sites. It reports aggregate page views, referrers, browser, operating system, device type, country, and page-load performance. See Cloudflare’s privacy policy.
Third-party services
The site loads Google Fonts (Fraunces and DM Sans) from Google’s CDN. Google sees your IP and user agent when your browser fetches the fonts. If this bothers you, most browsers let you block external font loading.
Cookies and accounts
The site does not require an account and does not set cookies for tracking or advertising. If Cloudflare’s security checks challenge your browser, Cloudflare may set a strictly necessary security cookie. We don’t sell or share personal information.
Do Not Track
We don’t track you across sites, so we treat every visitor as if Do Not Track were on. The site behaves the same whether or not your browser sends the signal.
Affiliate links
If we add affiliate links in the future, the affiliate provider may set its own cookies when you click through. Such links will be disclosed visibly on the page they appear on.
Children
The site is not directed at children under 13.
Changes
If we change what we collect or share, we’ll update this page and the “Last updated” date at the top.
