Privacy Policy

Last updated: March 2026

Who we are

Fuel Map UK (fuelmap.co.uk) is a free service that helps motorists find fuel prices across the United Kingdom. In this policy, "we", "us" and "our" refer to the operators of Fuel Map UK.

What data we collect

Location data — If you grant permission, we use your device's location to show nearby fuel stations. This data is processed in your browser only and is not stored on our servers.

Usage data — Our web server automatically logs standard access information (IP address, browser type, pages visited, date/time). This is used solely for security monitoring, error diagnosis and aggregated traffic analysis.

Cookies — We use essential cookies and local storage to remember your preferences (e.g. selected fuel type, map position). We do not use advertising or tracking cookies.

We do not collect names, email addresses, payment details or any other personal information unless you voluntarily contact us.

How we use your data

Legal basis for processing

We process data on the basis of legitimate interest (providing and securing our service) and, where applicable, your consent (e.g. sharing your location).

Data sharing

We do not sell, rent or share your personal data with third parties. Server logs may be accessible to our hosting provider in the normal course of providing infrastructure services.

Data retention

Server access logs are retained for up to 90 days and then automatically deleted. Local storage data remains on your device until you clear it.

Your rights

Under UK GDPR you have the right to access, correct, delete or restrict processing of your personal data. To exercise these rights, please contact us at the address below.

Third-party services

We use Leaflet (map tiles from OpenStreetMap) to display maps. These services may set their own cookies — please refer to their respective privacy policies.

Fuel price data is sourced from the UK Government's fuel price transparency initiative.

Changes to this policy

We may update this policy from time to time. Material changes will be noted by updating the "Last updated" date at the top of this page.
