Privacy Policy

Who we are

pro-cess.co is a free suite of business tools including an hourly rate calculator, job pricing calculator, invoice generator and currency converter. The site is operated by Lewis Thorpe-Aiken. You can contact us at info@pro-cess.co.

What data we collect

We collect minimal data to operate the service:

• Basic server logs including IP address and browser type, retained briefly for security purposes
• Anonymised usage data via Google Analytics, including pages visited, tools used and general location (country level)

We do not collect your name, email address, or any other personally identifiable information. No account is required to use this site. All tool inputs and saved presets are stored only on your own device and never transmitted to our servers.

How we use your data

We do not collect or store any data you enter into the tools. All calculations happen in your browser. Saved presets are stored in your browser's local storage and remain entirely on your device.

When you use the currency converter, your selected currencies are sent to a third party exchange rate API to retrieve live rates. No other data is transmitted.

We do not sell your data, use it for profiling, or share it with third parties beyond what is described in this policy.

Cookies and advertising

This site displays advertisements via Google AdSense. Google uses cookies to serve ads based on your prior visits to this and other websites. These cookies are set by Google, not by us.

You can opt out of personalised advertising at any time by visiting Google Ads Settings or by using the Digital Advertising Alliance opt-out tool.

For more information on how Google uses data when you use our site, visit How Google uses information from sites that use our services.

Local storage

We use your browser's local storage to save the following data entirely on your own device:

• Service pricing presets you create
• Hourly rate presets you create
• Invoice history — full saved invoices including client names, line items and totals
• Locked field values — if you choose to lock fields such as your business name, address or bank details, those values are saved to avoid re-entering them on future invoices
• Your preferred currency, last active tab and interface preferences

None of this data is ever transmitted to our servers. The field locking feature is entirely opt-in and stores only what you choose to lock. You can clear all saved data at any time by clearing your browser's site data for this page.
