UK GDPR Compliance

We operate in full compliance with the UK General Data Protection Regulation (UK GDPR) and the Data Protection Act 2018. We have a lawful basis for all data we collect, are transparent about how we use it, and honour your rights as a data subject.

Our Data Processing Activities

Email sign-up (compliance pack download)

When you complete our form to download the free compliance pack, we collect your first name and email address. These are stored with Hostinger Reach and used to send you the compliance pack and a short follow-up email sequence (5 emails over 14 days) covering UK landlord compliance topics. Legal basis: explicit consent.

Site analytics

We use Google Analytics 4 to collect anonymised data about site usage. GA4 uses first-party cookies to track sessions and page views. IP anonymisation is enabled. No personally identifiable data is transmitted to Google. Legal basis: legitimate interests (understanding and improving our free resource).

Interactive tools

Our six free tools process all data entirely within your browser. Nothing you enter into the Section 8 Timeline Calculator, Notice Period Calculator, Deposit Penalty Calculator, Compliance Deadline Tracker, or Pre-Tenancy Checklist is transmitted to or stored by us in any form.

Search function

Site search operates entirely client-side. Search queries are not transmitted to or stored on our servers.
