FAQ
Does this tool upload my data?
No by default. Most tools run locally in your browser. See the Privacy page for details.
What does “Share link” do?
It encodes your inputs into the URL hash so you can share without a server.
Is the result “official” or legally/financially accurate?
It’s a calculator, not advice. For critical cases, verify with official sources.
