Your privacy matters. Learn how we protect your information (spoiler: we don't collect it).

Last Updated: January 2025

Our Privacy Promise

ProcedureRates.com is built with privacy as a core principle. We believe healthcare financial planning should be private, simple, and accessible to everyone. That's why we've designed our calculators to work entirely in your browser without collecting, storing, or transmitting any of your personal information.

Information We Don't Collect

When you use our calculators, we DO NOT collect, store, or share:

  • Personal health information (medical conditions, procedures, diagnoses)
  • Financial information (income, bank accounts, insurance details)
  • Personal identifiers (name, email, phone number, address)
  • Calculation inputs or results
  • Account information (we don't have user accounts)

All calculations happen locally in your web browser. Your data never leaves your device.

Analytics and Cookies

We use minimal analytics to understand how visitors use our site and improve our service:

  • Google Analytics: We collect anonymized usage statistics (pages viewed, time on site, general location) to improve our calculators.
  • Google AdSense: We display ads to support the free service. Google may use cookies for ad personalization.
  • Essential Cookies: We may use cookies for basic site functionality (theme preferences, etc.)

You can disable cookies in your browser settings. Our calculators will continue to work without them.

How We Protect Your Privacy

  • No Server-Side Storage: Calculator inputs and results are processed entirely in your browser using JavaScript. Nothing is sent to our servers.
  • No User Accounts: We don't require sign-ups, logins, or user accounts. You can use our tools anonymously.
  • HTTPS Encryption: Our site uses HTTPS to encrypt data transmitted between your browser and our servers.
  • No Third-Party Data Sharing: We don't sell, rent, or share your personal information with third parties (because we don't collect it).
