Privacy Policy - How EV Tariff Handles Your Data

Last updated: 8 May 2026

This privacy policy explains how EV Tariff ("we", "our", "us") collects, uses and protects information about visitors to evtariff.co.uk. We are based in the United Kingdom and process personal data in line with the UK GDPR and the Data Protection Act 2018.

Analytics data. We use Google Analytics 4 to understand which pages are popular and how visitors find the site. GA4 collects anonymised information including pages viewed, approximate location (country/region), device type, browser, and the referring website. IP addresses are processed by Google but not stored by us in identifiable form.

Cookie preferences. When you make a choice on the cookie banner, we store that preference locally in your browser so we don't ask again on every page.

Affiliate-click data. When you click an outbound link to an energy supplier, charger retailer or installer, the destination site may set a tracking cookie that tells them we referred you. We do not see or store the data set by those third-party cookies - your relationship is then with the destination site under their own privacy policy.

We do not run a newsletter, contact form, account system, or comment section on this site, so we do not collect names, email addresses, postcodes or any other personally identifying information directly from visitors. If that ever changes - for example if we add a postcode-based tariff calculator that emails personalised results - this policy will be updated and you will be asked to consent before any data is collected.

We use a small number of cookies and similar technologies:

• Strictly necessary: to remember your cookie-banner choice and any dark/light theme preference.
• Analytics (GA4): loaded only after you accept analytics cookies on the banner. You can withdraw consent at any time by clearing site data in your browser.
• Third-party (affiliate): set by destination sites when you click outbound affiliate links - see those sites' privacy policies.

Under the UK GDPR you have the right to access, correct, restrict, or erase any personal data we hold about you. Because we do not collect identifying personal data directly, in practice the most useful right is to opt out of analytics - done via the cookie banner. If you have a concern about how the site handles data, the supervisory authority for the UK is the Information Commissioner's Office: ico.org.uk.

We may update this policy as the site evolves - for example if we add a calculator, comments or a newsletter. The 'Last updated' date at the top of this page always reflects the most recent revision.

Email delivery: we use Amazon Web Services (Amazon SES) to send our newsletter and any updates you have signed up for. Email is processed in the AWS Europe (Ireland) region. See the AWS privacy notice at https://aws.amazon.com/privacy/.
