Privacy Policy

1. Who we are

EVChargerCost.co.uk is operated by NB Media. For data-protection purposes, NB Media is responsible for deciding how personal information collected through this website is used.

2. Information we may collect

Calculator information

The current EV calculators perform their calculations in your web browser. Information you enter into those calculators — such as battery size, electricity rate, mileage or charging level — is not intentionally collected or stored by us as personal information.

Information you send to us

If you contact us through the website or another communication method, we may receive the information you choose to provide. This can include your name, email address, message and any other information you include in your enquiry.

Technical and website-usage information

Like most websites, our hosting, security and analytics systems may process technical information when you visit the site. This can include:

• IP address;
• browser and device type;
• operating system;
• pages visited and approximate visit times;
• referring website or search source;
• technical error, security and server-log information.

This information is generally used to operate, secure, troubleshoot and understand the performance of the website.

3. How we use information

We may use information collected through the website to:

• operate and maintain EVChargerCost.co.uk;
• respond to enquiries;
• identify technical problems and improve site performance;
• understand which pages and tools visitors find useful;
• protect the website against misuse, spam and security threats;
• comply with legal or regulatory obligations.

4. Our lawful bases

Where UK data-protection law applies, the lawful basis depends on why the information is being processed.

We may rely on legitimate interests where processing is reasonably necessary to operate, secure and improve the website or to respond to an enquiry, provided those interests are not overridden by your rights.

We may rely on consent where consent is required, including for certain optional cookies or analytics technologies. You can withdraw consent where applicable.

We may also process information where necessary to comply with a legal obligation.

5. Cookies and analytics

Cookies are small files or similar technologies that websites can use to remember information or understand how a site is being used.

EVChargerCost.co.uk may use cookies that are necessary for website operation, security or user preferences. These may be set without optional consent where the law permits.

We may also use analytics services, including Google Analytics, to understand aggregate website usage, such as which pages are visited and how visitors reach the site.

Where non-essential cookies or similar tracking technologies require consent, they are intended to be used only in accordance with the choices made through the site’s cookie controls.

6. Who we may share information with

We do not sell your personal information.

Information may be processed by service providers that help us run the website, such as:

• website hosting and infrastructure providers;
• website security and maintenance providers;
• analytics providers, where enabled;
• contact-form, email or communication providers;
• professional advisers where reasonably necessary.

We may also disclose information where required by law, regulation, court order or another lawful authority.

7. Third-party websites

EVChargerCost.co.uk contains links to other websites, including government, energy, vehicle and other third-party services.

Once you leave our website, the privacy practices of the destination website apply. We are not responsible for how an independent third-party website collects or uses your information.

8. International processing

Some technology and service providers may process information outside the United Kingdom.

Where personal information is transferred internationally, we expect the relevant provider to use an appropriate lawful transfer mechanism or other safeguards required by UK data-protection law.

9. How long we keep information

We keep personal information only for as long as reasonably necessary for the purpose for which it was collected, including operational, security and legal requirements.

Routine correspondence is not intended to be retained indefinitely. Technical logs and analytics information may have different retention periods depending on the service provider and our website configuration.

When information is no longer reasonably required, it may be deleted, anonymised or retained only where there is a legal reason to keep it.

10. Your data-protection rights

Depending on the circumstances, UK data-protection law may give you rights including the right to:

• request access to personal information we hold about you;
• ask us to correct inaccurate information;
• ask us to erase information in certain circumstances;
• ask us to restrict certain processing;
• object to certain processing;
• withdraw consent where processing relies on consent;
• request data portability where applicable.

These rights are subject to the conditions and exemptions provided by applicable law.

11. Complaints

If you have a concern about how we use personal information, please contact us first so that we can try to resolve it.

You also have the right to raise a data-protection complaint with the UK’s supervisory authority, the Information Commissioner’s Office (ICO).

12. Children

EVChargerCost.co.uk is a general information and calculator website and is not designed to collect personal information from children. We do not knowingly request sensitive personal information from children through the current tools.

13. Future services and referrals

EVChargerCost.co.uk may introduce additional tools, referral services, advertising or lead-generation features in the future.

If a new service requires personal information that is not covered by this notice, we will update the privacy information before or when that service is introduced.

14. Changes to this policy

We may update this Privacy Policy when the website, the services we use or relevant legal requirements change.

The review date at the top of this page will be updated when material changes are made.

15. Contact us

If you have a privacy question, want to exercise a data-protection right or want to ask about information associated with an enquiry, please contact NB Media through our website contact page.

This notice describes the current operation of EVChargerCost.co.uk. It should be reviewed when analytics, advertising, referral, lead-generation or other data-collection services are added or materially changed.
