Privacy Policy

Last updated: 29 April 2026

This Privacy Policy explains how UK Visa Info ("we", "our", or "us"), operator of ukvisainfo.co.uk, collects, uses and protects information about visitors to this website. We are committed to handling your personal data in accordance with the UK General Data Protection Regulation (UK GDPR) and the Data Protection Act 2018.

1. Who we are

UK Visa Info is an independent information website providing guidance on UK immigration routes. We are not affiliated with the UK Home Office, gov.uk, or any official government body. We are not immigration solicitors and do not provide legal advice.

2. What information we collect

We collect limited information automatically when you visit the site:

  • Usage data — pages visited, time on site, referring website, device type, browser version, approximate location (country / region only).
  • IP address — stored briefly by our hosting provider (Vercel) for security and analytics. We do not link IP addresses to identifiable individuals.
  • Cookie data — see Section 5 below.

We do not ask for or collect names, email addresses, phone numbers, passport details, or any other personal information through this website. Tools such as the eligibility quiz process your inputs locally in your browser and do not transmit them to us.

3. How we use information

  • To understand which content is most useful so we can improve it
  • To measure traffic patterns and detect technical issues
  • To serve relevant advertising (where you have consented)
  • To comply with legal obligations

4. Legal basis

We process site analytics under our legitimate interest in operating and improving the website. We process advertising and tracking cookies only with your explicit consent.

5. Cookies

A cookie is a small text file stored on your device. We use three categories:

  • Strictly necessary cookies — required for site functionality. No consent needed.
  • Analytics cookies — Vercel Web Analytics. Used to count visits and identify popular content. Anonymised; no personal identification.
  • Advertising cookies — used by Google AdSense and its partners to serve relevant ads. Set only with your consent via the cookie banner.

You can withdraw cookie consent at any time by clearing your browser's cookies for this domain or returning to the cookie banner.

6. Third-party services

We share limited usage data with the following processors:

  • Vercel Inc. — hosting and basic analytics
  • Cloudflare Inc. — DNS and security
  • Google LLC — AdSense advertising and Search Console (Search Console processes aggregated query data only)

Each of these providers operates under its own privacy policy and may transfer data outside the UK. Where transfers occur, they are governed by appropriate safeguards (UK adequacy decisions, Standard Contractual Clauses, or equivalent).

7. Your rights

Under UK GDPR you have the right to:

  • Access any personal data we hold about you
  • Request correction or deletion of that data
  • Object to processing or restrict it
  • Withdraw consent for cookies at any time
  • Complain to the Information Commissioner's Office (ICO) at ico.org.uk

Because we do not knowingly collect personally identifying information, in most cases there is no individual data record to access or delete. If you believe we hold data about you, contact us at privacy@ukvisainfo.co.uk.

8. Children

This site is not directed at children under 13. We do not knowingly collect data from children.

9. Changes to this policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. The "Last updated" date at the top of the page reflects the most recent revision.
