We collect information that helps us operate and improve our service. This primarily includes technical and usage data collected automatically when you visit our site. This type of data may include your IP address, browser type and version, operating system, referral source, length of visit, pages viewed, and site navigation paths.
We collect this information through standard web technologies such as cookies and similar tracking technologies, as well as through analytics services that help us understand how users interact with our platform, measure site performance, and support our search engine optimization and advertising efforts.
How We Use Your Information
We use the collected information for the following purposes:
- To operate, maintain, and improve the functionality and user experience of our site, including ensuring responsiveness, cross-browser compatibility, and accessibility.
- To understand how visitors use our service, analyse trends, and track usage patterns to enhance content and layout, such as improving the presentation of operator comparisons, pricing, coverage, and features.
- To monitor and analyse the performance of our site, including traffic sources and user engagement, to support SEO and advertising campaign effectiveness without identifying individuals personally.
- To ensure the security of our site and prevent fraudulent activity.
Legal Basis for Processing (GDPR)
Our legal basis for collecting and using the personal information described above depends on the information concerned and the specific context in which we collect it.
We primarily rely on our legitimate interests to operate and improve our website, understand user behaviour to enhance content and structure, conduct analytics, and support our marketing and advertising activities, provided that these interests are not overridden by your data protection interests or fundamental rights and freedoms.
In some cases, such as for the use of certain non-essential cookies, we may rely on your consent, where required by law. You have the right to withdraw your consent at any time.

We may share your information with third-party service providers who perform services on our behalf to operate the site, such as hosting services and analytics providers. These service providers are bound by confidentiality obligations and are restricted from using the information for any other purpose.
We do not sell, rent, or trade your personal information to third parties for their direct marketing purposes.
We may disclose information if required to do so by law or in response to valid requests by public authorities.
Data Retention
We retain your personal information for as long as necessary to fulfil the purposes for which we collected it, including for the purposes of satisfying any legal, accounting, or reporting requirements. When we have no ongoing legitimate business need to process your personal information, we will either delete or anonymise it.
