Collection And Use of Postcode Data
BroadbandInternetUk.com only obtains and processes postcode data from you when it conducts a broadband availability check based on the postcode you enter on the website. This check is required by Broadband Internet UK to find out which broadband provider services are available where you live. We may store your postcode, however, it is important to understand that we cannot personally identify you from your postcode.
You are under no obligation to provide your postcode, however, if you don't, Broadband Internet UK will be unable to provide you with a live broadband availability check and subsequent package or bundle comparison services.
Under GDPR, we believe we have a legitimate interest in making use of postcodes as we have described above - and that is our legal basis. Our use of postcodes has minimal privacy impact for our users and is in line with what users would reasonably expect. Therefore, under GDPR, we do not require data consent from our website users when they enter a postcode.

How Do We Use Cookies?

We also make use of cookies from third party advertising companies, known as affiliate networks, to find out if visitors to our website go on to visit a broadband provider website and if that visit subsequently results in a purchase. This is important to us as this website is funded by the commission we receive from a broadband provider when a visitor purchases a broadband package (a practice known as Affiliate/Performance Marketing). You can find out further information on Affiliate/Performance Marketing and how our website is funded by visiting our About Us page.
It is important to understand that the cookies outlined above DO NOT personally identify you. All the information collected is aggregated and therefore anonymous. They are only used to help us improve how our website works.
