TrueGigWage ("we," "us," or "this site") provides a free calculator to help gig workers estimate their real hourly pay after vehicle costs and taxes. This page explains what information is collected when you use the site.
The numbers you type into the calculator (earnings, hours, miles, tax rate) are processed entirely in your browser. We do not collect, store, or transmit the figures you enter — they exist only on your device while you're using the tool and disappear when you close or refresh the page.
We use Google Analytics to understand overall site traffic — things like how many people visit, which pages they view, and general location (country/city level). This helps us improve the tool. Google Analytics uses cookies and may collect data such as your IP address, browser type, and device information. This data is aggregated and not used to personally identify you.
You can learn more about how Google handles this data in Google's Privacy Policy, and you can opt out of Google Analytics tracking using the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on.
This site uses cookies solely for analytics purposes as described above. We do not use cookies for advertising personalization at this time.
TrueGigWage may include links to third-party products or services (such as mileage-tracking apps). Some of these may be affiliate links, meaning we could earn a small commission if you sign up or make a purchase through them, at no additional cost to you. We only recommend tools we believe are genuinely useful to gig workers.
This site may link to external websites. We are not responsible for the privacy practices or content of those sites. We encourage you to review their privacy policies directly.
This site is not directed at children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect information from children.
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. Changes will be posted on this page with an updated revision date.
If you have questions about this policy, you can reach us at hello@truegigwage.com.
