1. About this policy
This is the cookie policy for the Doctor Devify Hub at tools.doctordevify.com. It covers the hub homepage, every tool we publish under it (Before You Rank, Foundation Ranker, Pay Calculator, Payslip Explainer, Tax Relief Calculator) the books at books.doctordevify.com, and the links page at links.doctordevify.com. We don't use advertising cookies, tracking pixels, or anything that follows you across other websites.
2. The hub homepage
The hub at tools.doctordevify.com uses a small amount of browser storage to remember your light or dark mode choice and to group anonymous visit data. None of it identifies you.
3. Per-tool cookies and storage
3.1 Before You Rank
- Session storage for things like remembering you've dismissed an informational popup. Cleared when you close your browser.
- Google Analytics cookies for anonymised usage analytics.
3.2 Foundation Ranker
- Authentication cookies set when you sign in. Essential to keep you logged in.
- Payment cookies set during checkout. Essential to process Complete purchases.
- Google Analytics cookies for anonymised usage analytics.
3.3 Pay Calculator
- Your calculator inputs saved in your browser, so the figures you entered are still there when you come back or after you sign in. They never leave your device unless you save a scenario to your account.
- A shared pay figure saved in your browser so the Tax Relief Calculator can start from your annual taxable pay instead of asking you to find it again. Stored on your device only, and it is a figure, not an identity.
- A sign-in token if you create a free account, so you stay signed in between visits.
- A theme preference remembering whether you chose light or dark mode.
- An analytics identifier stored in your browser to group anonymous visit data. Not linked to your identity.
3.4 Tax Relief Calculator
- Your calculator inputs saved in your browser, so what you entered is still there when you come back. They never leave your device.
- A shared pay figure read from your browser if you have used the Pay Calculator, so this tool can start from your annual taxable pay instead of asking you to find it again. Stored on your device only.
- A sign-in token if you create a free account, so you stay signed in between visits.
- An analytics identifier stored in your browser to group anonymous visit data. Not linked to your identity.
3.5 Books
- An analytics identifier stored in your browser to group anonymous visit data across book pages. Not linked to your identity.
- Payhip checkout cookies (digital books only): clicking "Get the eBook" on a digital book page loads the Payhip iframe on the same page, which sets its own session and fraud-protection cookies. Set by Payhip, not us. See Payhip's privacy and cookie policy.
- Paperback books on Amazon: the buy CTA opens Amazon in a new tab. Any cookies Amazon sets on its own pages are governed by Amazon's policies, not ours.
4. Google Fonts
Our typefaces are served by Google Fonts, which may receive limited technical data (such as your IP address) when fonts load. See Google's Privacy Policy.
5. What we don't use
- No advertising cookies
- No tracking pixels or remarketing tags
- No social-media cookies
- No tracking you across other websites
6. Managing cookies and storage
You can view, block, or clear cookies and browser storage from your browser's settings. Blocking essential cookies on Foundation Ranker (authentication / payment) will stop sign-in and checkout from working. Blocking analytics has no effect on tool functionality.
Browser-specific instructions:
To opt out of Google Analytics specifically, you can install the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on.
7. Changes
We may update this policy. Changes are posted on this page with a new revision date.
