Effective Date: June 2026
At the West Bengal Pay Calculator, accessible from our primary web domains, your privacy and data security are our absolute highest priorities. Because our suite of digital calculators, salary estimation scripts, and tax worksheets deal with personal financial planning figures, we have designed this platform under strict security and confidentiality paradigms. This Privacy Policy details the types of information we process, how we work with third-party networks (including Google AdSense), and how you can manage your preferences.
1. Complete Absence of Personal Data Harvesting
Unlike traditional financial service websites, all calculators on our portal (such as the 7th Pay Commission Calculator, Dearness Allowance Calculator, Salary Slip Maker, Pension Fixation Sheets, and Increment Compounding Scripts) operate entirely through client-side client executions (JavaScript). This means:
- Any numerical values, basic pay rates, designation labels, employee IDs, or office names you input into the fields remain strictly inside your browser's local memory footprint.
- We do not transmit, harvest, capture, or store your inputs on our external web servers, APIs, or back-end databases.
- No database of employee payroll records is maintained by this site, assuring complete anonymity and security.
2. Google AdSense & DoubleClick DART Cookies
To keep our educational tools free and accessible for West Bengal public service employees, we partner with third-party advertising services, primarily Google AdSense. Google, as a third-party vendor, uses web cookies to serve advertisements on our portal.
Google's use of advertising cookies (specifically the DoubleClick DART cookie) enables it and its partner networks to display tailored ads to our visitors based on their browsing behavior on our portal and other sites across the Internet. You can manage or disable DART cookie tracking by visiting the official Google Ad and Content Network Privacy Policy page.
3. Log File Auditing
Like most standard web hosting services, we utilize server-side log files. These files log visitors to the site—a standard procedure for hosting analytics. The information inside the log files includes Internet Protocol (IP) addresses, browser brand and version, Internet Service Provider (ISP), date/time stamps, referring/exit pages, and click paths. This information is processed strictly to analyze trends, monitor site safety, administer server health, and track demographic patterns. Importantly, log files are never linked to any personally identifiable information.
4. Browser Cookies & Web Beacons
Our site may utilize basic, non-intrusive cookies to save your user preferences (such as maintaining active dropdown menu selections or form choices if you refresh the page). Third-party advertisers on our site (such as Google) may also use cookies, JavaScript scripts, or web beacons to measure the overall efficiency of their advertising campaigns and personalize the advertising content displayed on pages. The West Bengal Pay Calculator has no access to or control over these cookies used by third-party advertisers.
5. Third-Party Privacy Policies & Ad Settings
This Privacy Policy does not apply to other external advertisers or websites. We recommend that you consult the respective Privacy Policies of these third-party ad servers for detailed information regarding their practices, as well as instructions on how to opt-out of certain tracking settings.
You can choose to disable cookies through your individual browser options. Detailed information about cookie management with specific web browsers can be found at the browsers' respective official websites.
6. GDPR & CCPA Privacy Protections
Under relevant global privacy regulations (including GDPR for European Union visitors and CCPA/CPRA specifications), users hold the following fundamental rights:
- The Right to Access: You have the right to request copies of any personal data we hold. (Since our portal does not capture or store any data, your profile records are completely blank.)
- The Right to Rectification: You can request corrections to inaccurate information.
- The Right to Opt-Out: You can block personalized advertising and tracking tags using standard browser settings.
7. Children's Information Safeguards
Another part of our priority is adding protection for children while using the internet. We encourage parents and guardians to observe, participate in, and/or monitor and guide their online activity. The West Bengal Pay Calculator does not knowingly collect any Personal Identifiable Information from children under the age of 13. If you think your child provided this kind of information on our website, we strongly encourage you to contact us immediately, and we will do our best efforts to promptly remove such records from our logs.
8. Changes and Contact
We reserve the right to revise this Privacy Policy periodically to reflect updates in ad network compliance standards, new tool structures, or general legal guidelines. If you have questions about this policy or require further explanations, please feel free to reach out to our team via our Contact page.
