- Your birth date, salary, service years or any other calculator input
- Your name, pension member number or Social Security number. We never ask for them.
- Calculator inputs are saved in the part of the web address after the
#, so you can bookmark or share a scenario. Browsers don't send that part to any server. - Checklist ticks on the retirement checklist are saved in your browser's local storage. Clearing your browser data removes them.
Analytics
We use Google Analytics 4 to count visits and see which pages are useful. It records the page address (without the # part), the page that sent you here, your general location (city level), your device and browser type, and how long you stayed. Google sets cookies to tell new visits from repeat ones.
We've turned off Google signals and ad personalization for analytics. We don't send Google anything you type into the calculator.
To opt out, use your browser's privacy settings, an ad or tracker blocker, or Google's opt-out add-on. See how Google uses data from sites that use its services.
Hosting
Like every website, our hosting provider handles standard technical data to deliver pages and block attacks, such as your IP address and browser type. We don't use it to identify you.
Our fonts are served from this site, not from Google Fonts or another font service, so reading a page doesn't contact a third party.
If you email hello@teacherpensioncalculator.com, we see your address and what you wrote. We use it only to reply and to fix the site, and we don't add you to any list. Please don't send your Social Security number, pension member number or account details.
Advertising
There are no ads on this site today. If that changes, we'll update this page first and say which ad partners we use and how to opt out.
Children
This site is for adults planning retirement and isn't directed at children under 13.
Changes
We'll update this page whenever what we collect changes, and note it on What's changed. Last updated Nov. 12, 2026.
