Privacy Policy

This policy explains how PayPrecise handles personal information when you use our calculators, purchase a Salary & True Wage Report, contact us or allow optional analytics.

Most free calculator inputs are processed in your browser and are not normally sent to us. Information entered for a paid report is sent to PayPrecise and relevant service providers so that we can take payment, generate and deliver the report, provide secure access and deal with support or security issues.

Last updated: 24 July 2026

What data we may collect

Depending on how you use PayPrecise, we may process the following:

Category	Examples
Free calculator inputs	Values such as salary, hours, pension, student-loan selections and work costs. These are normally processed locally in your browser.
Paid report data	Your email address and the information needed to prepare the report, which may include salary, age band, work region, occupation, working pattern, hours, pension, student-loan, housing, commute, overtime and report-goal information, together with the results generated from those inputs.
Order and payment data	Product, price, payment status, order or transaction references and fulfilment records. Card details are entered directly with the payment provider; PayPrecise does not receive or store your full card number.
Technical and usage data	IP address, browser and device type, referring page, approximate location, timestamps, security logs and interactions with pages or tools.
Communications and preferences	Information you provide when contacting us, requesting support or choosing whether to receive optional updates.

How calculator and paid report data is handled

Most free calculators run in your browser, so the values you enter are not normally sent to PayPrecise. Technical usage data may still be collected separately if you allow analytics or where security logging is necessary.

When you purchase a report, the information needed for that report is transmitted and processed so that we can confirm payment, calculate the results, create and deliver the report, provide access to it and respond to support requests.

We do not sell personal data. Please do not submit special-category information, confidential employer material or personal data about another person.

This privacy policy covers how personal data is used. The report description, price, delivery information and applicable purchase terms are shown separately before purchase or at checkout.

How we use personal data

provide and maintain the calculators and website;
process paid report purchases and generate, deliver and support purchased reports;
confirm payments, maintain transaction records and meet accounting or legal requirements;
protect report access, prevent misuse, investigate faults and secure the service;
respond to enquiries and support requests;
measure and improve the site where optional analytics has been accepted;
send optional marketing or product updates where you have agreed to receive them; and
establish, exercise or defend legal claims and comply with legal obligations.

Lawful bases

We rely on the lawful basis that fits the particular activity:

Purpose	Lawful basis
Taking an order and generating, delivering or supporting a purchased report	Performance of a contract or steps taken at your request before purchase
Payment, tax, accounting and other records required by law	Legal obligation and, where relevant, contract
Running and securing the site, preventing fraud or misuse, resolving faults and protecting legal rights	Legitimate interests
Responding to general messages and enquiries	Legitimate interests or steps taken at your request
Optional analytics and optional marketing	Consent, where required

Our legitimate interests are operating a reliable and secure service, preventing misuse, resolving problems and improving PayPrecise in a proportionate way.

Public data and ONS attribution

Some salary benchmark information in PayPrecise reports is adapted from published Office for National Statistics data, including the Annual Survey of Hours and Earnings. ONS material is used under the Open Government Licence v3.0, except where otherwise stated.

PayPrecise calculations, interpretations and report presentation are our own. PayPrecise is independent and is not affiliated with or endorsed by the Office for National Statistics. Source notes in the report identify the relevant ONS release or table where appropriate.

Cookies and analytics

We use browser storage to remember the choice you make in the cookie banner. Google Analytics is present on the site, but analytics storage is denied by default and is only enabled if you choose to allow analytics.

If you allow analytics, the analytics provider may receive information such as pages viewed, approximate location, browser and device details, and interactions with site features. You can reject analytics and can change or withdraw your choice using the Cookie settings control. Your choice may be stored in your browser for up to 12 months.

Sharing data with service providers

We use service providers to operate PayPrecise, including payment processing, website and cloud hosting, report generation or delivery, transactional email, security and optional analytics. We may also disclose information to professional advisers, regulators, law-enforcement bodies or courts where reasonably necessary or legally required.

Providers receive only the information reasonably needed for their role and are required to handle it appropriately. The payment provider processes card information under its own privacy terms. We do not sell personal data.

International transfers

Some providers may process personal data outside the UK. Where required, we rely on an applicable UK adequacy regulation or recognised safeguards such as approved contractual protections. You may contact us for more information about the safeguards relevant to your data.

Data retention

Free calculator values processed only in your browser are not normally retained by PayPrecise.

Paid report, order and access records are retained only for as long as reasonably needed to deliver or provide access to the report, provide support, prevent misuse, resolve disputes and meet legal or accounting obligations. Payment and accounting records may be kept for longer where the law requires this.

Security logs are kept for a limited operational period, correspondence for a reasonable period after the matter is closed, marketing preferences until you unsubscribe or the list is no longer used, and analytics data in line with the selected service settings. Information is deleted or anonymised when it is no longer needed.

Security

We use technical and organisational measures designed to protect personal data against unauthorised access, misuse, loss, alteration or disclosure. Access is limited to people and providers that need the information for the purposes described in this policy.

No website or internet transmission can be guaranteed to be completely secure. Please provide only the information needed for the feature you are using.

Do you have to provide personal data?

You do not have to provide data to use general site content or the free calculators. To purchase and receive a personalised report, you must provide the information reasonably required to process the payment, calculate the report and deliver it. Without that information, we may be unable to provide the service.

Your rights

Depending on the circumstances, you may have rights under UK data protection law, including access, rectification, erasure, restriction and, in some cases, data portability. Where we rely on consent, you may withdraw it at any time for future processing.

Right to object: where we rely on legitimate interests, you have the right to object. We will consider your objection and stop the processing unless we have compelling legitimate grounds to continue or need the information for legal claims.

You may complain to the UK Information Commissioner’s Office if you are unhappy with how your data is handled. Complaint guidance is available at ico.org.uk. We would appreciate the opportunity to address your concern first.

Children

PayPrecise is not directed at children. Paid reports should be purchased only by people who are legally able to enter into the purchase.

Automated calculations

Our calculators and reports automatically produce estimates from the information entered. They do not make decisions about you that have legal or similarly significant effects, and PayPrecise does not use the information to make employment, lending, insurance or recruitment decisions.

Changes to this policy

We may update this policy to reflect changes to PayPrecise, our data practices, legal requirements or the services we use. The latest version will be posted on this page with the updated date shown above.
