Privacy Policy
California Property Tools is a free, ad-supported California property tax calculator. This policy explains what we collect, the cookies and similar technologies we use for analytics and advertising, and the choices you have.
Your calculator inputs stay in your browser
The calculator runs entirely on your device. Your purchase price, purchase date, and any assessed value you enter are used only in your browser to compute the estimate. These financial inputs are never transmitted to us, stored on a server, or shared with analytics or advertising partners.

With your consent these may store or read information on your device (such as a random identifier, approximate location derived from your IP address, and device or browser type). You control this through the consent banner and can change your choice anytime via .
Analytics (Google Analytics 4)
We use Google Analytics 4 to understand aggregate traffic and how the calculator is used (for example, page views and events such as starting or completing a calculation, or selecting a county). Google processes this data as our analytics provider. We do not send Google your financial inputs. You can install the Google Analytics opt-out browser add-on to opt out across sites.

You can personalize or opt out of personalized Google ads in Google Ad Settings, and opt out of many other vendors at aboutads.info.
