1. Introduction
Welcome to VAT Calculator UK. We respect your privacy and are committed to protecting your personal data. This Privacy Policy explains how your information is handled when you use our website and VAT calculator tool.
2. Information We Collect
VAT Calculations
We do not store, save, or transmit any numbers you enter into the VAT calculator. All calculations are performed locally in your browser using JavaScript, and no calculation data is sent to our servers.
Anonymous Usage Data
We may collect limited, anonymous analytics data, including:
- Pages visited and time spent on the website
- Browser type and device information
- General geographic location (country or city level only)
- Referring website (how you arrived at our site)
3. How We Use Your Information
Any anonymous data collected is used only to:
- Improve website performance and user experience
- Understand which features users find most useful
- Detect and fix technical issues
- Generate overall website usage statistics
4. Cookies
Our website may use essential cookies required for basic functionality. We do not use advertising or behavioral tracking cookies. You can manage or disable cookies through your browser settings.
5. Third-Party Services
We may use third-party analytics services (such as Google Analytics) to help understand anonymous website usage. These services operate under their own privacy policies, which we recommend reviewing.
6. Data Security
Because we do not collect personal data or store VAT calculations, the risk to your privacy is minimal. The calculator runs entirely in your browser without sending sensitive information elsewhere.
7. Your Rights
Under UK GDPR, you have certain rights regarding personal data, including:
- The right to access your data
- The right to correct inaccurate data
- The right to request deletion of your data
- The right to object to data processing
Since we do not collect personal information through the calculator, these rights mainly apply if you choose to contact us directly.
8. Children’s Privacy
This website is not intended for children under the age of 13. We do not knowingly collect data from children.
9. Changes to This Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy occasionally. Any changes will be posted on this page along with an updated revision date.
