Privacy Policy

Last updated: 9 October 2026

This Privacy Policy explains how FreeToolsPad (“we”, “us”, “our”), available at freetoolspad.com, collects, uses and protects information when you visit our website and use our free online tools and calculators. By using the site you agree to the practices described here.

1. Information We Collect

Information you enter into our tools

Our calculators, such as the salary after tax calculator and mortgage calculator, work in your web browser. The figures you type in are used only to show you a result on your screen. We do not send them to our servers, store them, or link them to you.

Information collected automatically

Like most websites, we and our service providers may automatically collect technical information when you visit, including:

  • Your IP address (which may be anonymised) and approximate location, such as country or city
  • Browser type and version, device type and operating system
  • Pages visited, time spent on pages, referring website and the date and time of your visit

Information you send us

If you contact us by email or through a contact form, we receive your name, email address and the content of your message, and we use it only to reply to you.

2. Cookies and Similar Technologies

Cookies are small text files stored on your device. We use them to keep the site working, to understand how it is used, and to show advertising. You can accept or manage non-essential cookies through the cookie banner shown on your first visit, and you can also block or delete cookies in your browser settings. Blocking some cookies may affect how parts of the site work.

3. Advertising (Google AdSense)

We use Google AdSense, and may use other advertising partners, to show ads on this website. This is how we fund our free tools.

  • Third-party vendors, including Google, use cookies to serve ads based on your previous visits to this and other websites.
  • Google’s use of advertising cookies allows it and its partners to show you ads based on your visit to our site and other sites on the internet.
  • Where required by law, such as in the UK and European Economic Area, personalised ads are shown only if you give consent.

You can opt out of personalised advertising by visiting Google Ads Settings. You can also opt out of some third-party vendors’ use of cookies for personalised advertising at www.aboutads.info, or at www.youronlinechoices.com if you are in Europe. To learn how Google handles data, see How Google uses information from sites or apps that use our services.

4. Analytics

We may use analytics services such as Google Analytics to understand how visitors find and use the site, so we can improve our tools and content. These services collect usage data through cookies and report it to us in aggregated form. We do not use analytics to identify individual visitors.

5. How We Use Information

  • To operate, maintain and improve the website and our tools
  • To understand usage and fix technical problems
  • To show advertising that supports the site
  • To respond to messages you send us
  • To keep the site secure and prevent abuse

6. Legal Basis for Processing (UK and EEA Visitors)

Under the UK GDPR and EU GDPR, we process personal data on the following bases: your consent (for advertising and analytics cookies), our legitimate interests (running and securing the site and understanding how it is used), and, where relevant, steps needed to answer your enquiry.

7. Sharing Your Information

We do not sell your personal information. We share data only with service providers that help us run the site, such as hosting, analytics and advertising partners including Google, and when required to do so by law. These providers process data under their own privacy policies.

8. Data Retention

We keep personal data only as long as needed for the purposes above. Emails you send us are kept for as long as necessary to deal with your request, and cookie and analytics data are kept for the periods set by the relevant provider.

9. Your Rights

Depending on where you live, you may have the right to access the personal data we hold about you, correct it, ask us to delete it, restrict or object to its use, withdraw consent at any time, and receive a copy of your data. To exercise any of these rights, contact us using the details below. If you are in the UK and are unhappy with how we handle your data, you can complain to the Information Commissioner’s Office (ICO) at ico.org.uk.

10. Third-Party Links

Our site may link to other websites, such as GOV.UK. We are not responsible for their content or privacy practices, so please read their policies before sharing any information.

11. Children’s Privacy

Our website is not directed at children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from them. If you believe a child has given us personal data, contact us and we will delete it.

12. Data Security

We take reasonable steps to protect the site and any information we hold, including the use of HTTPS. No method of transmission over the internet is completely secure, so we cannot guarantee absolute security.

13. Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. The “Last updated” date at the top shows when it was last revised, and changes take effect when posted on this page.
