Privacy Policy

EasyCalculators.co.uk ("we", "us", "our") respects your privacy. This policy explains what limited data we collect when you use this website, how it is used, and your rights under the UK General Data Protection Regulation (UK GDPR) and the Data Protection Act 2018.

1. Who we are

EasyCalculators.co.uk is a website that provides free online calculators. We are based in the United Kingdom. For any privacy questions, contact us via our contact page.

2. What information we collect

We do not require accounts and do not collect personal information directly through forms. The data collected by this site falls into three categories:

2.1 Calculator inputs

Numbers you enter into our calculators (such as salary, property price, mortgage amount) are processed entirely in your browser using JavaScript. This data is never sent to our servers, stored, or shared. When you close the page, the data is gone.

2.2 Standard server logs

Our hosting provider (Netlify) automatically records standard technical information about visits, including:

• IP address (in anonymised or truncated form, depending on configuration)
• Date and time of visit
• Pages visited and HTTP referrer
• Browser type and operating system

This information is used solely to keep the site running, prevent abuse, and analyse general traffic patterns. The legal basis for processing this data is our legitimate interest in operating a secure website (UK GDPR Article 6(1)(f)).

2.3 Third-party services

We use the following third-party services that may collect data about you:

• Google AdSense — displays advertising on the site. Google may use cookies and identifiers to show personalised ads based on your previous visits to this and other sites. See Google's advertising privacy info.
• Google Analytics (if enabled) — collects anonymised statistics about how visitors use the site. See Google's privacy policy.
• Netlify — our hosting provider. See Netlify's privacy policy.

You can opt out of personalised Google advertising at adssettings.google.com.

3. Cookies

This site uses cookies. See our Cookie Policy for full details.

4. Data retention

We do not retain any data you enter into the calculators. Server logs are typically retained by our hosting provider for a limited period (usually 30 days) before being automatically deleted or anonymised.

5. Your rights under UK GDPR

You have the following rights regarding any personal data we process about you:

• Right of access — to know what data we hold about you
• Right to rectification — to correct inaccurate data
• Right to erasure — to ask us to delete your data
• Right to restrict processing — to limit how we use your data
• Right to object — to object to processing based on legitimate interests
• Right to data portability — to receive your data in a machine-readable format

To exercise any of these rights, contact us via our contact page.

6. Complaints
