Last updated: 18 June 2026

This Privacy Policy explains how PIP Back Pay Calculator (“we”, “us”, “our”)
collects, uses, and protects information when you visit
pipbackpaycalculator.co.uk (the “Site”).
We are committed to protecting your privacy and handling your data in line with
the UK General Data Protection Regulation (UK GDPR) and the Data Protection Act 2018.

1. Who We Are

The data controller responsible for this Site is [OWNER / BUSINESS NAME].
If you have any questions about this policy or your personal data, you can contact us at:

2. Important Note About the Calculator

Our PIP back pay and PIP points calculators run entirely within your web browser.
The dates, rates, and component details you enter are processed locally on your device
to produce an estimate. We do not store, transmit, or save the figures you enter
into the calculators, and you do not need to provide any personal information to use them.

3. Information We Collect

We collect information in the following ways:

3.1 Information you give us

When you complete our contact form, you may provide your name, email address, and the
content of your message. We use this solely to respond to your enquiry.

3.2 Information collected automatically

When you visit the Site, certain data is collected automatically through cookies and
similar technologies, including your IP address, browser type, device information,
pages visited, and how you interact with the Site. This is used for security, analytics,
and to support advertising (see Sections 5 and 6).

4. How We Use Your Information

  • To respond to enquiries submitted through our contact form.
  • To operate, maintain, and secure the Site.
  • To understand how visitors use the Site so we can improve our content and tools.
  • To display advertising that helps keep the Site free to use.

5. Cookies

We use cookies and similar technologies to make the Site work, to measure usage, and to
serve advertising. You can control non-essential cookies at any time through the consent
banner that appears when you first visit the Site, or by adjusting your browser settings.
For full details of the cookies we use, please see our
Cookie Policy.

6. Advertising and Google AdSense

This Site uses Google AdSense to display advertising. Third-party vendors, including Google,
use cookies to serve ads based on your prior visits to this and other websites.

If you are located in the UK or EEA, we obtain your consent for the use of advertising and
non-essential cookies through a Google-certified consent management platform before such
cookies are set.

7. Analytics

We use analytics tools (such as Google Analytics, provided via Google Site Kit) to understand
how visitors use the Site. These tools collect information such as pages viewed, time on site,
and approximate location derived from IP address. This information is aggregated and used to
improve the Site. You can learn more in
Google’s Privacy Policy.

8. Legal Bases for Processing

Under the UK GDPR, we rely on the following legal bases:

  • Consent — for setting non-essential cookies (advertising and analytics) and
    for responding to optional contact form submissions.
  • Legitimate interests — for keeping the Site secure and functioning correctly.

Where we rely on consent, you may withdraw it at any time without affecting the lawfulness of
processing carried out before withdrawal.

9. Sharing Your Information

We do not sell your personal data. We share data only with service providers who help us
operate the Site, including:

  • Our website hosting provider.
  • Google (for advertising and analytics, as described above).

These providers process data on our behalf or as independent controllers in accordance with
their own privacy policies.

10. International Data Transfers

Some of our service providers, including Google, may process data outside the UK, including in
the United States. Where this happens, appropriate safeguards (such as the UK International Data
Transfer Agreement or Standard Contractual Clauses) are in place to protect your information.

11. Data Retention

We keep contact form submissions only for as long as necessary to deal with your enquiry and
for a reasonable period afterwards. Data collected by analytics and advertising providers is
retained according to their own retention policies.

Under the UK GDPR, you have the right to:

  • Access the personal data we hold about you.
  • Request correction of inaccurate data.
  • Request erasure of your data.
  • Restrict or object to processing.
  • Request data portability.
  • Withdraw consent at any time.
