About

Welcome to Factcheck.nl.

Crunching numbers shouldn't eat up your valuable time or leave you confused. That's why I'm building this webapp that transforms financial scenarios into straightforward comparisons. From major life decisions like student debt management to everyday choices like smarter shopping, each tool is designed to give you clarity and confidence in your choices.

This app is going to be a permanent work in progress, adding tools constantly.

Building and maintaining these tools takes significant resources, which is why I've created different support tiers on Patreon from ad-free browsing to premium calculator access and the opportunity to help shape what gets built next. Your support directly funds new features and keeps the platform growing for everyone who needs better decision-making tools and I would love to have you on this journey with me.

AI disclosure

The tools on this site do not use AI. However I do use AI tools like Github Copilot to help code the site.

Privacy and data usage

To use this site, you need to input your data. Obvioysly there is a privacy concern there. However, part of my mission is to create a website that is as privacy forward as I can. Your data is not collected or stored. Only your local storage is used to store the data and it is not accessible to me. When you submit a form, the data is processed on the server but none of it is stored.

The only data I do collect is standard usage data, like how often you use the site and what pages you visit.

Obviously this is a 'trust me' kind of situation. However as you might have noticed, the business model of this website is based on Patreon. This means you are my customer, not some third party or data broker.
