When you use the Washington Child Support Schedule Center (WCSSC), we may collect the following types of information:

• Usage Data: Pages visited, time spent on pages, links clicked, and referral sources. This data is collected via Google Analytics and AdSense tracking.
• Device Information: Browser type, operating system, screen resolution, and device type (desktop, mobile, tablet).
• IP Address: Your Internet Protocol address is automatically logged by our hosting provider (Vercel) and by Google AdSense for geographic ad targeting.
• Cookies: Small text files placed on your device by Google AdSense and analytics services (see Cookie section below).
• Calculator Inputs: Income figures and family details you enter into our calculator. This data is NOT stored on our servers — all calculations happen locally in your browser and are never transmitted.

This website uses Google AdSense, a service for including advertisements from Google Inc. ("Google"). Google AdSense uses "cookies", which are text files placed on your computer, to help the website analyze how users use the site.

Google AdSense also uses so-called Web Beacons (invisible graphics). Through these Web Beacons, information such as traffic on these pages can be evaluated.

Google, as a third-party vendor, uses cookies to serve ads on your site. Google's use of the DART cookie enables it to serve ads to your users based on their visit to your sites and other sites on the Internet.

Users may opt out of the use of the DART cookie by visiting the Google ad and content network privacy policy.

Mandatory Third-Party Disclosure:

• Third-party vendors, including Google, use cookies to serve ads based on a user's prior visits to your website or other websites.
• Google's use of advertising cookies enables it and its partners to serve ads to your users based on their visit to your sites and/or other sites on the Internet.
• Users may opt out of personalized advertising by visiting Ads Settings.

We retain server logs and analytics data for a maximum of 26 months, consistent with Google Analytics default settings. After this period, data is automatically deleted.

Calculator input data (income, children count) is never stored — it exists only in your browser session and is discarded when you close or navigate away from the page.
