Privacy

This website does not set cookies, does not use analytics, and does not run advertising or tracking scripts. If you subscribe to UK Tender Alerts, payment and email are handled as described below.

Who we are

DataToolsUK publishes UK open-data tools on the Apify Store and this website at datatoolsuk.co.uk. This page covers the website itself.

What this site collects

Nothing from your browser beyond the request needed to serve a page. There are no tracking cookies, no third-party analytics, no embedded social or advertising tags, and no login. Because we do not use cookies, a cookie banner is not required.

If you subscribe to UK Tender Alerts, checkout takes place on Stripe. Stripe collects your email address and payment card to start a 14-day free trial and, if you do not cancel, to take the £15 monthly fee and to manage the subscription. You are not charged during the trial. We store the filters you choose (keywords, CPV codes, regions, value range, notice types, and an optional name) as metadata on your Stripe customer record, and we use your email to send the daily digest, welcome and cancellation messages through Brevo, from [email protected]. Every email includes an unsubscribe link. You can also manage or cancel billing through the Stripe customer portal.

We do not sell your email address. We use it only to provide the service you paid for, to handle bounces and unsubscribe requests, and to operate billing.

Hosting

The site is hosted on Cloudflare Pages. Like any website host, Cloudflare’s servers will see standard technical request data such as IP address, browser type and the page requested, in order to deliver the site and protect it from abuse. That processing is handled by Cloudflare under their own terms, not by a script we added.

When you leave this site

Links to the Apify Store, GOV.UK, Companies House, Stripe and other official or payment providers take you to those organisations’ websites. Their privacy notices apply there. Running a DataToolsUK tool on Apify is covered by Apify’s terms and privacy policy, and by any data you choose to put in a run. Stripe’s and Brevo’s privacy notices apply to the payment and email services they provide for UK Tender Alerts.

The data in our tools

Our tools reuse UK public sector information under the Open Government Licence v3.0. Some official datasets can include personal data, for example a sole trader’s name or a director’s home used as a registered office. We design defaults to reduce that (company-level rows, no officer names unless you opt in, no sole-trader operator licences unless you opt in). If you use the data, you are responsible for UK GDPR and PECR compliance in your own use, including marketing.

Changes

If we change what we collect, we will update this page.
