Privacy Policy

Last updated: 12 January 2026

This privacy policy explains how Holiday Entitlement Calculator ("we", "us", "our") collects, uses, and protects information when you use our website at holiday-entitlement.co.uk.

Information We Collect

Calculator Data

All holiday entitlement calculations and holiday tracking data are performed and stored locally in your web browser. The information you enter (working days, holiday dates, tracking data) is:

• Stored only in your browser's local storage
• Never transmitted to our servers
• Never shared with third parties
• Automatically deleted when you clear your browser data

Analytics

We may use Google Analytics to understand how visitors use our site. This service collects:

• Pages you visit
• Time spent on the site
• Your approximate location (country/city level)
• Device and browser type
• How you arrived at our site

This data is anonymised and used only to improve the site. You can opt out of Google Analytics by installing the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on.

Cookies and Local Storage

Essential Storage

We use local storage (not cookies) to save your holiday tracker data. This allows you to:

• Save your calculated holiday entitlement
• Track holidays you've taken or booked
• See your remaining holiday balance
• Return to your saved data later

You can clear this data at any time by deleting individual entries in the holiday tracker or by clearing your browser's local storage.

Third-Party Cookies

Our site may use third-party cookies from:

• Google Analytics: For anonymous usage statistics
• Google AdSense: For displaying relevant advertisements

These services may use cookies to provide personalised content and measure ad effectiveness. You can control cookie preferences through your browser settings.

Advertising

We use Google AdSense to display advertisements on our site. Google and its partners may use cookies and other tracking technologies to:

• Show ads based on your interests
• Measure ad performance
• Prevent showing ads you've already seen

You can opt out of personalised advertising by visiting Google's Ads Settings or www.youronlinechoices.com.

Data Security

Since we do not collect or store personal information on our servers, there is minimal data security risk. All calculator and tracking data remains on your device and is under your control.

Your Rights

Under UK data protection law (UK GDPR), you have the right to:

• Access any personal data we hold (none in this case)
• Request deletion of your data (simply clear your browser storage)
• Opt out of analytics and personalised advertising
• Lodge a complaint with the Information Commissioner's Office (ICO)

Not Legal Advice

This calculator provides guidance based on UK statutory holiday entitlement rules. It is not legal advice. The calculations are for informational purposes only. Always check your employment contract for your specific entitlement, and consult ACAS or a qualified employment advisor for specific advice.
