Privacy
Looking for the Locum app? It stores everything on your phone and works quite differently from this site, so it has its own privacy policy.
The figures you enter
Every calculator on this site runs entirely in your browser. The salaries, pension figures and session rates you type in are never sent to a server and are never seen by anyone else. Some tools save your inputs in your browser’s local storage so your work survives a refresh — that data stays on your device, and clearing your browser data removes it.
Visit counting
Anonymous page visits are counted using GoatCounter, so it’s possible to see which tools people find useful. It sets no cookies, does not track you across sites, and records no personal data and nothing you enter into a calculator — only that a page was viewed, along with the referring site, rough location, and browser type.
The contact form
If you use the contact form, the name, email address and message you submit are emailed onwards so they can be read and replied to. They are used only to answer your enquiry, are never added to the email updates list, and are not shared with anyone else.
The legal basis is legitimate interests — answering someone who has written in. The email is kept for up to 12 months after the conversation ends and is then deleted, or sooner if you ask.
Email updates
If you sign up to be told when the figures are updated, your email address is stored by Resend, the service that sends the emails. Whether you sign up from a calculator’s results or from the box on the tools and guides pages, it is the same single list, covering both things it names: a message when the figures change for a new tax year, and related GP finance news on pensions, tax and locum money. Your address is never sold or shared, it is not used to send you anything else, and no calculator inputs are attached to it.
Every email has a one-click unsubscribe link, which takes effect immediately. You can also ask via the contact form to be removed entirely.
Third-party links
The “buy me a coffee” button links to Ko-fi, and any payment page links to Stripe. If you follow one of those links, that company’s own privacy policy applies to what happens there. Neither receives anything you entered into a calculator.
