What data we collect

We collect very little personal data. Here is what we do collect:

• Postcode searches — when you search a postcode, we log it in anonymised, aggregated form to understand which areas people look up. We do not store IP addresses alongside searches.
• Analytics data — we use Google Analytics (G-tag) to understand how people use the site. This includes pages visited, time on site, and general location (city level, not postcode). Google Analytics uses cookies.
• Cookies — see our Cookie Policy for details.

We do not collect names, email addresses, or payment details on this website.
