Privacy Policy

Last updated: 15 January 2026

This privacy policy explains how OvertimeCalculator.uk ("we", "us", "the site") handles information when you use this website. We have tried to keep this policy short and readable rather than full of unnecessary legal filler.

Who we are

OvertimeCalculator.uk is an independently run UK information and calculator website, edited by Lilly Anderson. You can reach us via our contact page.

Calculator data

The overtime, time and a half, double time, salary-to-hourly and overtime tax calculators on this site run entirely in your web browser using JavaScript. The figures you type in (hourly rate, salary, hours, multiplier) are not sent to our servers, are not stored by us, and are not shared with any third party. Closing or refreshing the page clears everything you entered.

Contact form

If you use our contact form, your message is sent directly to us using your own email application (a standard "mailto" link). We do not store contact submissions in a database. We only keep the resulting email for as long as reasonably needed to respond to your query.

Cookies and similar technologies

We may use cookies for basic website analytics (to understand how many people visit and which pages are useful) and, where enabled, for advertising served through Google AdSense. Advertising cookies may be used by Google and its partners to show relevant adverts and to measure ad performance. See our Cookie Policy for full details and how to control cookies in your browser.

Advertising

This site may display adverts served by Google AdSense. Google may use cookies and similar technology to serve ads based on your prior visits to this or other websites. You can learn more about how Google uses data and manage your ad settings at Google's own privacy and ads pages.

Your rights under UK data protection law

Under UK GDPR and the Data Protection Act 2018, you have rights including the right to access, correct, or request deletion of personal data we hold about you. Since we do not operate user accounts or store calculator inputs, the personal data we hold is generally limited to any email correspondence you send us. To exercise any of these rights, contact us via our contact page.

Data retention

We keep email correspondence only for as long as needed to deal with your enquiry and for a reasonable period afterwards for our own records, after which it may be deleted.

Changes to this policy

We may update this privacy policy from time to time to reflect changes in the site or in the law. The "last updated" date at the top of this page shows when it was last revised.
