Privacy Policy

Last updated: June 2025

Overview

UAE Gratuity Calculator (uaegratuitycalculator.com) is designed to respect your privacy. The core calculator runs entirely in your browser — no salary figures, dates, or personal information are transmitted to or stored on our servers.

1. Information we do not collect

We do not collect, store, or process:

  • Salary amounts entered into the calculator
  • Employment dates (join date, last working date)
  • Contract type or reason for leaving
  • Unpaid leave days
  • Calculated gratuity results
  • Names, email addresses, or any personally identifiable information (unless you contact us directly)

2. Information we may collect automatically

Like most websites, our hosting provider may collect standard server logs, which can include:

  • IP address (anonymised or truncated where possible)
  • Browser type and version
  • Operating system
  • Pages visited and timestamps
  • Referring URL

This data is used solely for security monitoring, uptime analysis, and aggregate traffic statistics. It is not linked to any personal profile and is not sold to third parties.

3. Google Translate

This site offers optional page translation powered by Google Translate. If you use the language selector, your browser communicates with Google's servers. Google's handling of data in this context is governed by the Google Privacy Policy. We do not control or have access to any data processed by Google Translate.

Translation is entirely optional. The calculator works fully in English without activating Google Translate.

4. Cookies and local storage

We use browser localStorage to remember your dark/light mode preference. This is a single key (theme) stored locally on your device. It is not transmitted to any server and contains no personal information.

Google Translate sets a cookie (googtrans) when you select a language. This cookie is used to persist your language preference. It is removed when you reset to English.

We do not use advertising cookies, tracking pixels, or analytics cookies.

5. Contact information

If you contact us via the contact page or directly by email, we will receive your name, email address, and the content of your message. This information is used solely to respond to your enquiry and is not shared with third parties.

6. Third-party links

This site may contain links to external resources (such as MOHRE, UAE labour law documents, or legal references). We are not responsible for the privacy practices of those external sites.

7. Children's privacy

This tool is intended for working adults. We do not knowingly collect any information from individuals under 18 years of age.

8. Changes to this policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. The "Last updated" date at the top of this page reflects the most recent revision. Continued use of the site after any changes constitutes acceptance of the updated policy.
