Privacy Policy

Last Updated: November 24, 2025

Overview

This Privacy Policy describes how Disability Benefits Eligibility Checker ("we," "us," or "our") collects, uses, and protects information when you use our website and educational tools.

Information We Collect

Eligibility Snapshot Tool

The eligibility snapshot questionnaire on our homepage runs entirely in your web browser. Your answers are processed locally on your device and are not transmitted to our servers or stored in any database. We do not collect, store, or have access to your responses.

AI Helper

When you use the AI Helper feature, your messages are sent to our AI service provider (OpenAI) to generate responses. We do not collect personally identifiable information such as names, Social Security numbers, exact addresses, medical record IDs, or other information that would allow us to identify you individually. We strongly encourage you not to share such information in the AI chat.

Automatically Collected Information

Like most websites, we may automatically collect certain technical information when you visit our site, including your IP address, browser type, device information, and pages visited. This information is collected through standard web server logs and may be used for analytics, troubleshooting, and improving our services.

How We Use Information

We use information collected to:

Third-Party Services

We use OpenAI's services to power the AI Helper feature. Messages you send through the AI Helper are processed by OpenAI in accordance with their privacy policy and terms of service. Please review OpenAI's privacy policy at https://openai.com/privacy for more information about how they handle data.

Cookies and Tracking

Our website may use cookies and similar technologies for basic functionality and analytics. You can control cookie preferences through your browser settings.

Partner Links

This site may include links to partner services, disability law networks, advocacy organizations, and other resources. These third-party sites have their own privacy policies, and we are not responsible for their privacy practices. We encourage you to review the privacy policies of any third-party sites you visit.

Data Security

We implement reasonable security measures to protect information transmitted through our site. However, no method of transmission over the internet is 100% secure. We encourage you not to share sensitive personal information through our AI Helper or any online service.

Children's Privacy

Our site is not intended for children under 13 years of age. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13.

Your Rights

Because we do not collect personally identifiable information through our eligibility snapshot tool, and we do not store individual user data in a way that identifies you, there is limited personal data for you to access, correct, or delete. If you have questions about data collected through the AI Helper or other aspects of our site, you may contact us using the information below.

Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. When we make changes, we will update the "Last Updated" date at the top of this page. Your continued use of our site after changes are posted constitutes your acceptance of the updated policy.

Contact Information

If you have questions about this Privacy Policy or our privacy practices, please contact us through the channels provided on our website.

Important Disclaimers

This site is not affiliated with any government agency. We do not provide legal, financial, or medical advice. The information on this site is for general educational purposes only.
