Privacy Policy
Last updated: March 2026
Pass Your MOT ("we", "us", or "our") operates passyourmot.co.uk (the "Site"). This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, and protect information when you visit our Site.
By using the Site, you agree to the collection and use of information as described in this policy. If you do not agree, please stop using the Site.
Information We Collect
Information You Provide
Our Site does not require registration or user accounts. We do not collect personal information such as your name, email address, or phone number unless you voluntarily contact us.
If you contact us via email at [enable JS], we will collect your email address and any information you include in your message solely to respond to your enquiry.
The MOT data displayed on this Site comes from the DVSA's anonymised dataset. It contains no personally identifiable information — no names, addresses, registration plates, or VIN numbers.
Information Collected Automatically
When you visit our Site, certain information may be collected automatically — but only if you have given your consent via our cookie banner:
- Analytics Data: We use PostHog, a web analytics service, to understand how visitors use our Site. PostHog may collect information such as your IP address (anonymised), browser type, operating system, referring URLs, pages visited, and time spent on pages.
- Device & Browser Data: Technical information such as your device type, browser type, language preference, and screen resolution may be collected as part of analytics.
Cookies & Local Storage
Cookies are small text files stored on your device. We use cookies and browser local storage for:
- Consent preference (local storage) — to remember your cookie consent choice
- Analytics cookies (PostHog) — to understand site usage, only if you accept
For full details about each cookie we use, see our Cookie Policy.
How We Use Information
We use automatically collected information to:
- Operate and maintain the Site
- Understand how visitors use the Site (analytics)
- Improve user experience
- Detect and prevent technical issues
We do not:
- Sell your personal information
- Create user profiles for purposes beyond analytics
- Collect information from children under 13
Third-Party Services
We use the following third-party services that may collect data:
| Service | Purpose | Privacy Policy |
|---|---|---|
| PostHog | Web analytics | posthog.com/privacy |
| Cloudflare | Hosting & CDN | cloudflare.com/privacypolicy |
These third parties have their own privacy policies governing their use of your data. We encourage you to review them.
No Personal Data Stored
We do not store any personal data on our servers. This website has no user accounts, no databases of user information, and no server-side data collection beyond standard web server logs (handled by Cloudflare). All analytics data is processed by PostHog on their infrastructure.

Under the UK and EU General Data Protection Regulations, you have the right to:
- Access — request a copy of any personal data we hold about you

For California Residents (CCPA)
- Right to Know — what personal information is collected
- Right to Delete — request deletion of personal information
- Right to Opt-Out — opt out of the sale of personal information

We do not sell personal information as defined by the CCPA.
For All Users
- You can decline cookies via our consent banner on first visit
- You can withdraw consent by clearing your browser's local storage for this site
- You can disable cookies in your browser settings at any time

Since we collect no personal data beyond analytics (which requires your consent), the simplest way to exercise your rights is to decline or withdraw cookie consent.
Children's Privacy
Our Site is not intended for children under the age of 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If you are a parent or guardian and believe your child has provided us with personal information, please contact us at [enable JS], and we will delete such information.
Data Retention
Analytics data is retained by PostHog for up to 24 months. Cookie consent preferences are stored locally on your device. We do not maintain user accounts or store personal data beyond what is described above.
Data Security
We take reasonable measures to protect data collected through our Site. However, no method of transmission over the Internet is 100% secure. We use HTTPS encryption and rely on trusted third-party service providers (Cloudflare, PostHog) with their own security measures.
International Data Transfers
Our Site is accessible globally. Analytics data processed by PostHog may be stored in the European Union (we use PostHog's EU hosting). Data processed by Cloudflare may be routed through servers in various countries. By using the Site, you consent to such transfers. Where required, we ensure appropriate safeguards are in place.
Changes to This Privacy Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. Changes will be posted on this page with an updated "Last Updated" date. We encourage you to review this page periodically.
