Privacy Policy

Fuel-Sense ("we", "us", "our") is a UK-based fuel price comparison service operated at fuel-sense.com. We are committed to protecting your personal data and complying with UK GDPR and the Data Protection Act 2018.

When you use the app without an account:

• Approximate location (if you grant permission) — used only for nearby station search, never stored
• Postcode searches — used only to display results, not linked to you personally
• Anonymous usage analytics (pages viewed, features used)

When you create an account:

• Email address and display name
• Saved (favourite) stations
• Price reports you submit

• To display nearby fuel stations and prices
• To save your favourite stations (if signed in)
• To process price reports you submit
• To improve the app through anonymised analytics
• To respond to enquiries submitted via the contact form

We process your data on the following bases:

• Consent — for location access and optional cookies
• Contract — to provide the service when you create an account
• Legitimate interests — for anonymous analytics to improve the service

We use essential cookies required for the app to function, and optional analytics cookies. You can manage your cookie preferences via the cookie banner or our Cookie Policy.

We do not sell your personal data. We may share anonymised, aggregated data for analytics purposes. We use trusted third-party services (such as our hosting provider) who process data on our behalf under data processing agreements.

Account data is retained while your account is active. You may delete your account at any time by contacting us. Anonymous analytics data is retained for up to 24 months.

Under UK GDPR, you have the right to:

• Access the personal data we hold about you
• Request correction or deletion of your data
• Object to processing or request restriction
• Data portability
• Withdraw consent at any time

To exercise your rights, contact us via the Contact page.

We take reasonable technical and organisational measures to protect your data. All data is transmitted over encrypted HTTPS connections.

We may update this policy from time to time. We'll post the updated version on this page with a revised date. Continued use of Fuel-Sense after changes constitutes acceptance.
