Privacy Policy
Calculations run entirely in your browser: the amounts and rates you enter are never sent to us or stored on a server. We use Google Analytics to measure anonymous, aggregated visits, as explained below.
What data does UK VAT Calculator collect?
The calculator itself collects nothing. Every calculation runs locally in your browser, so the figures you enter stay on your device, and we do not require an account. Separately, we use Google Analytics 4 to record anonymous, aggregated usage such as page views, approximate location (country/city), device and browser type, and referring site. This data is not linked to your identity, and the amounts you calculate are never sent.
Does UK VAT Calculator use cookies?
We use cookies set by Google Analytics (_ga and _ga_*) to distinguish visitors and measure visits. When you dismiss the cookie notice, we also save one small preference in your browser's local storage so the notice is not shown again. You can remove these at any time by clearing your browser data, and you can opt out of Google Analytics using Google's browser add-on or your browser's cookie controls.
Does UK VAT Calculator share my data?
We do not sell or share your data. Anonymous analytics data is processed by Google as our analytics provider under its own terms and privacy policy. The site uses standard system fonts and, apart from the Google tag, loads no third-party scripts. If you follow an external link, such as to GOV.UK, that site's own privacy policy applies.
What are my rights under UK GDPR?
Under UK data protection law you have rights over your personal data, including access, correction and deletion. The calculator stores no personal data, and the analytics data we hold is anonymous and aggregated, so it cannot be linked back to you. If you have a question, contact us and we will help.
How do I contact you about privacy?
Email [email protected] or use the contact page.
How will this policy change?
If we change this policy, we will post the new version on this page with an updated date. Because the calculator stores nothing, changes are unlikely to affect you.
