At Ratias, accessible from ratias.com, one of our main priorities is the privacy of our visitors and extension users. This Privacy Policy document details the types of information (or lack thereof) that is handled by Ratias and how we operate in absolute compliance with user privacy standards.
1. Complete Client-Side Operation (No Data Collection)
The Ratias Percentage Calculator web application and its official Chrome Extension operate completely client-side within your local browser environment. We do not collect, store, transmit, or share any personal user data, browsing history, calculations, IP addresses, or financial inputs. All mathematical operations are processed locally on your device, and no input data is ever sent across the network.
2. Chrome Web Store User Data & Limited Use Compliance
