Privacy Policy
Last updated: 9 September 2026 · ATTOH LTD (trading as ATTOH Digital)
We take your privacy seriously. This policy explains exactly what data we collect, why we collect it, and what we do with it. We do not sell your data. Ever.
1. Who We Are
ATTOH Digital is a trading name of ATTOH LTD, a company registered in England and Wales, company number 14079382. Registered office: First Floor, Swan Buildings 20, Swan Street, Manchester, England, M4 5JW.
For the purposes of UK data protection law, ATTOH LTD is the data controller in respect of the personal data we hold about you.
2. What Personal Data We Collect
We may collect the following personal data from you:
- Contact information — your name, email address, telephone number, and business name when you submit an enquiry via our contact form.
- Free-calculator gate information — your company number, work email address, phone number and name when you unlock a gated calculator, plus, on some tools, the figures you type into it. This is set out in full in section 3.
- Communication data — any information you provide when you contact us by email, phone, or through our website.
- Technical data — your IP address, browser type, device type, and pages visited (collected via analytics cookies, where you have consented).
- Commercial data — details of services you have purchased or enquired about.
We do not collect or process any special category personal data (such as health information, biometric data, or racial origin).
3. Free Calculators and the One-Run Gate
Several of the calculators on this site are gated: before the full result is shown, you are asked for your company number, work email address and phone number, and on some tools your name. This applies to the payroll calculator, the sole-trader tax calculator and the VAT domestic reverse charge checker. What happens to that information is not obvious from the tool itself, so it is set out here in full.
- The details you give at the gate are stored. Your company number, email address, phone number and name are written to our database as a record of the run, together with which tool you ran and a count of the runs on that record.
- On the payroll calculator, the figures you type are stored as well. That tool has no calculation engine in your browser. The numbers you enter are sent to our server, the calculation is performed there, and the figures from your most recent run are kept in our database against the same record. They are not passed through the engine and discarded.
- The free-run meter is keyed on your email address. It counts across every gated tool we operate, not only the one you are using, so a run on one calculator is visible to the meter on all the others. That means the record links your activity across our tools.
- On the sole-trader tax calculator and the VAT reverse charge checker the calculation itself runs in your browser. The figures you type into those two are not sent to us; only the gate details above are sent, in order to reveal the full result and count the free run.
Why we do this, and our lawful basis. We meter the free run so a free tool cannot be taken an unlimited number of times, and we keep the details because a calculation is usually the start of a conversation we would like to have with you about the paid product. Our lawful bases are steps taken at your request before entering into a contract, and our legitimate interests in preventing abuse of a free service and in following up a genuine enquiry.
How long we keep it. We do not keep these records indefinitely. They are held only for as long as a follow-up about the tool you ran remains a realistic prospect, and are then removed automatically by a scheduled deletion job rather than by anyone remembering to do it. If you would rather we did not keep them at all, ask us and we will delete them — see Your Rights.
These tools also store a random identifier in your browser so that the meter counts a browser rather than everyone sharing an office network. It is not a cookie, is not shared with anyone, and carries nothing about you.
