The short version
USA Biz Profit Tools, operated by Silver Shine LLC, is a static website. It does not set its own tracking cookies. It does use your browser's local storage for a few convenience features, and it loads the Google AdSense script on every page, which means Google may set or read cookies or similar identifiers on your device.
The Google AdSense script
The AdSense script for publisher ID pub-6242870041806301 is installed sitewide so that Google can access and
review the site as part of the AdSense application process. The site is not approved to serve ads, no ad units are
placed in the templates, Auto Ads are not enabled, and no ads are currently displayed.
The script still loads from Google's servers on every page view, so Google may receive your IP address, browser and device characteristics, and the page URL, and may set or read cookies. You can review and control this at policies.google.com/technologies/partner-sites and myadcenter.google.com, or by blocking third-party cookies in your browser.
What is stored, and why
| Name | Type and party | Purpose | How long |
|---|---|---|---|
| usa-biz-profit-tools-cookie-consent | Browser local storage (first party) | Remembers that you dismissed the cookie notice so it is not shown again on this device. | Until you clear site data in your browser. |
| usa-biz-profit-tools:<tool-slug>:calculator-inputs | Browser local storage (first party) | Restores the values you last typed into a calculator so you do not have to re-enter them. | Until you use the calculator's "Clear saved values" control or clear site data. |
| checklist:<tool-slug> | Browser local storage (first party) | Saves which checklist items you have ticked on this device. | Until you reset the checklist or clear site data. |
| Google advertising cookies and identifiers | Third party, set by Google | Set or read by Google in connection with the AdSense script installed for site review. Google uses these for its own purposes, including fraud prevention and advertising measurement. | Set by Google and governed by Google's policies, not by us. |
About the notice on this site
The notice at the bottom of the page is an information notice, not a consent manager. It tells you what is loaded and remembers only that you dismissed it. It does not block the Google AdSense script, which is loaded in the page head before the notice runs.
An earlier version of this site showed Accept, Reject, and Customize buttons on this notice. Those buttons did not gate any script, so they have been removed rather than left in place implying a control that did not exist. This correction is recorded on the Updates and corrections page.
Before personalised advertising is served to visitors in regions that require consent, a Google-certified consent mechanism will be configured through AdSense Privacy & Messaging, and this page will be updated to describe it.
Controlling storage yourself
You can clear or block cookies and local storage in your browser settings. Blocking storage for this site will stop the calculators from remembering your inputs and the checklist from remembering your progress; nothing else on the site depends on it. Blocking third-party cookies will limit what Google can store through the AdSense script.
