You can read this guide and use its calculator without creating an account or entering personal financial details.

Calculator information

The loan amount, APR and term are processed in your browser. The website code does not send these values to a lender, advertising service or application database. The calculator does not ask for your name, email, income, bank details or Social Security number.

Cookies and analytics

The public information pages and calculator do not use advertising cookies, local storage or third-party analytics. The editor area uses an essential, time-limited session cookie so authorized editors can sign in and publish news. It does not include a loan application or contact form.

Editor accounts and news content

The protected editor area stores a password hash, sign-in session information, news drafts, publication details and the articles that editors choose to publish. Drafts are available only to signed-in editors. Public visitors do not need an editor account.

Hosting and ordinary request logs

When your browser requests a page, the hosting infrastructure receives ordinary connection information, which can include an IP address, requested URL, browser information and request time. Server or infrastructure logs may record this information for operation and security. This notice does not claim that hosting providers keep no logs.

External websites

Links to government, county and credit-union information take you to websites operated by other organizations. Those websites have their own privacy practices. Review their notices before submitting personal information.

Your choices

You do not need to provide personal information to use this guide. You can disable JavaScript and still read the pages; the adjustable calculator then shows only its default example. Browser controls can help manage permissions and data stored by external websites.

Changes to this notice

If this website adds features that collect information, this notice should be updated to explain those practices. The current website is an informational resource with no application or lead collection.
