Privacy & Cookie Policy

Last updated: 18 March 2026

Overview

Compare UK Hosting is an informational comparison website. We are committed to keeping things simple: we do not collect, store, or process any personal data from our visitors. You can browse this site without providing any personal information.

What We Do Not Collect

We want to be clear about what we do not do:

  • We do not require account registration or login
  • We do not collect names, email addresses, or contact details
  • We do not use contact forms, newsletter sign-ups, or comment systems
  • We do not sell or share any data with third parties
  • We do not use advertising or remarketing trackers

Cookies

We use minimal, non-personal cookies and similar technologies:

Google Analytics (Anonymous)

We use Google Analytics to understand general site usage (e.g., which pages are popular, how long visits last). This service may set cookies such as _ga and _ga_*. We have configured Google Analytics with IP anonymisation enabled, meaning your full IP address is never stored. No personally identifiable information is collected through this service. You can opt out of Google Analytics entirely by installing the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on.

Essential/Technical Cookies

Our hosting infrastructure may set strictly necessary cookies required for the website to function (e.g., load balancing, security). These contain no personal data and cannot be disabled without breaking the site.

We do not use any marketing cookies, social media trackers, or personalisation cookies. Because we do not collect personal data through cookies, and our analytics are anonymised, a cookie consent banner is not required under current UK GDPR/PECR guidance. However, you can control or delete cookies via your browser settings at any time.

Affiliate Links

This website contains affiliate links to hosting providers. When you click an affiliate link and make a purchase, we may earn a commission at no additional cost to you. Clicking an affiliate link may cause the destination website to set its own cookies — those cookies are governed by that website's privacy policy, not ours. We have no control over third-party cookies set after you leave our site. For full details, see the affiliate disclosure shown on each page.

Third-Party Websites

Our site links to external hosting provider websites. Once you leave Compare UK Hosting, we are not responsible for the privacy practices of those sites. We encourage you to read the privacy policy of any website you visit.

Your Rights

Since we do not collect any personal data, there is no personal data for us to provide, amend, or delete. If you have any questions about this policy, you can reach us via the contact details below.

Changes to This Policy

We may update this policy from time to time. Any changes will be posted on this page with an updated “last updated” date. As we do not collect personal data, we have no means to notify you directly of changes.
