Privacy Policy
This policy explains the information UKHomeCosts.com may process when you browse the site, use a calculator or contact us.
Last reviewed: 1 September 2026.
Information processed when you use the site
Our hosting and security infrastructure may process technical information needed to deliver and protect the website, such as IP address, request time, requested URL, browser or device information and diagnostic logs. These records are used for security, reliability, troubleshooting and abuse prevention.
Calculator inputs
Cost-calculator inputs are intended for planning purposes. The current calculators perform their interactive calculations in the browser and do not require an account. Do not enter names, financial account details or other sensitive personal information into calculator fields. A postcode entered into a postcode-aware calculator is used to select a broad cost region for the estimate.
Contact enquiries
If you email info@ukhomecosts.com, we receive the information you choose to send, such as your email address and message. We use it to respond to the enquiry, investigate corrections or source suggestions and maintain necessary correspondence.
Analytics and advertising
We do not describe an analytics or advertising service as active unless it has actually been enabled. If Google advertising or another advertising service is introduced, this policy and the Cookie Policy will identify the relevant processing and consent controls. Advertising technology will not determine the editorial values used by our cost guides or calculators.
Google requires publishers to disclose data collection and technologies associated with Google advertising, including cookies or other identifiers. When Google advertising is enabled, the site will provide the required disclosures and consent controls before applicable advertising technology is loaded.
External links
Source records can link to government, industry and other third-party websites. Those sites have their own privacy practices. Opening an external source takes you outside UKHomeCosts.com.
Data retention
Technical logs and correspondence are retained only for as long as reasonably needed for security, operation, support, record-keeping or legal obligations. Retention periods can differ depending on the type of record and the services in use.
Your rights
Depending on the law that applies to you, you may have rights relating to personal information, including access, correction, deletion, restriction or objection. To make a privacy enquiry, contact info@ukhomecosts.com.
Changes to this policy
We update this page when the site introduces or materially changes analytics, advertising, consent, hosting or other data-processing services. The review date above is updated when a material change is made.
