Privacy Policy

Overview

Stafford Fuel Prices (stafford-fuel.co.uk) is a free fuel price comparison website for the Stafford area. We do not require you to create an account, and we do not directly collect, store, or sell any personal information.

What data do we collect?

We do not collect any personal data directly. We do not ask for your name, email address, or any other identifying information. However, the third-party services described below may collect anonymised usage data automatically when you visit the site.

Google Analytics

We use Google Analytics to understand how visitors use our site — for example, which pages are most popular and how people find us. Google Analytics uses cookies and collects anonymised data such as:

• Pages visited and time spent on each page
• Approximate geographic location (city/region level)
• Device type, browser, and operating system
• Referral source (e.g. search engine, direct link)

This data is aggregated and anonymous — we cannot identify individual visitors. You can opt out of Google Analytics by installing the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on.

For more details, see Google's Privacy Policy.

Affiliate Advertising (Awin)

We display affiliate advertisements through the Awin advertising network. These ads may use cookies to track whether a click leads to a purchase on the advertiser's website. This helps us earn a small commission at no extra cost to you, which supports the running of this free site.

Awin may collect data including your IP address, browser information, and interactions with ads. This data is handled by Awin in accordance with their privacy policy.

For more details, see Awin's Privacy Policy.

Cookies

We use cookies only through the third-party services described above (Google Analytics and Awin). We do not set any first-party cookies for tracking or advertising purposes. You can manage or block cookies through your browser settings.

Embeddable Widget

We offer a free embeddable fuel price widget that other websites can display. The widget loads inside a sandboxed iframe and does not set cookies or track visitors on the host website.

Data Sources

Fuel price data displayed on this site is sourced from the UK Government Fuel Finder scheme and updated automatically on a regular basis. We do not guarantee the accuracy of fuel prices and recommend confirming at the forecourt.

Your Rights

Since we do not collect personal data directly, there is generally no personal data for us to provide, correct, or delete. If you have any concerns about how third-party services handle your data, please refer to their respective privacy policies linked above.

Changes to This Policy

We may update this privacy policy from time to time. Any changes will be posted on this page with an updated date.
