Privacy & Cookies

Know Your Rights UK (knowyourrightsuk.com) provides free, general information about UK law. We are committed to collecting as little personal data as possible. You do not need an account to use this site.

We use Google Analytics 4 to understand which guides are most useful so we can improve the site. Analytics cookies are only set after you accept them in our consent banner, until then, Google Consent Mode keeps analytics storage disabled. We have enabled IP anonymisation. You can change your choice at any time by clearing this site's data in your browser. We never sell your data.

To keep this site free to use, we are introducing advertising. When ads are shown, our advertising partner Google (through AdSense) and its partners may use cookies and similar technologies to display and measure ads. In the UK and EEA, advertising cookies are only set after you accept them in our consent banner; if you decline, you may still see non-personalised ads. You can read how Google uses information from sites that use its services at policies.google.com/technologies/partner-sites and manage ad personalisation at adssettings.google.com. Some of our guides also contain affiliate links, which are clearly marked and may earn us a commission at no extra cost to you.

When you use the chat, the messages you type are sent to Google's Gemini API to generate a response. Please do not enter more personal information than necessary. Conversations are not tied to an account and are not used to build a profile of you. A short-lived record of recent requests (including your IP address) is held by our rate-limiting provider (Upstash) purely to prevent abuse.

If you choose to buy a formal letter, payment is processed securely by Stripe. We never see or store your card details. Stripe processes your payment information under its own privacy policy.

Under UK GDPR you have the right to access, correct, or request deletion of any personal data we hold about you, and to object to processing. Because we do not operate accounts, we typically hold no personal data that identifies you. To make a request or ask a question, email contact@knowyourrightsuk.com or see our contact page.

We may update this notice as the site evolves. The “last updated” date above always reflects the current version.
