Privacy Policy & Terms of Use

Privacy Policy

What Information We Collect

EuroRate UK is designed to be privacy-friendly. We collect minimal information:

• No Personal Data: We don't require registration, so we don't collect names, emails, or any personal information.
• Server Logs: Like any website, our server automatically logs basic technical information (IP address, browser type, pages visited) for security and performance purposes. These logs are retained for 7 days and then automatically deleted.
• Currency Queries: We temporarily store currency conversion queries (e.g., "EUR to USD, 1000") for caching and to show "Latest Conversions" on the site. No personal information is attached to these queries.

Cookies

We use minimal cookies:

• Essential Cookies: Session cookies required for the site to function properly (e.g., maintaining your conversion preferences during a session).
• No Advertising Cookies: We don't use cookies for advertising or tracking across other websites.

Third-Party Services

EuroRate UK uses the following third-party services:

• Exchange Rate Data: We fetch currency data from financial data providers. These providers don't receive any information about you.
• News Feeds: We aggregate news from public RSS feeds (Investing.com, FXStreet, DailyFX, etc.). No personal data is shared with these services.

Data Sharing

We don't sell, rent, or share your data with third parties. Period.

Your Rights

Since we don't collect personal data, there's not much to request. But if you have concerns:

• You can contact us at contact @ eurorate.co.uk
• You can clear your browser cookies at any time
• Server logs are automatically deleted after 7 days

Children's Privacy

EuroRate UK is suitable for all ages. Since we don't collect personal information, there are no special restrictions for children.

Changes to This Policy

If we change our privacy practices, we'll update this page and note the revision date at the top. Check back occasionally if you're concerned.

Terms of Use

Acceptance of Terms

By using EuroRate UK, you agree to these terms. If you don't agree, don't use the site. Simple as that.

Use of the Service

EuroRate UK is provided free of charge for personal and commercial use, subject to these conditions:

• Permitted Use: You can use our data for personal reference, business planning, travel budgeting, or any legitimate purpose.
• No Scraping: Don't scrape our site with bots or automated tools. If you need bulk data access, contact us to discuss API access.
• No Abuse: Don't try to hack, overload, or disrupt the service. Be reasonable.
• Attribution: If you share our data publicly (blog, social media, etc.), a link back to eurorate.co.uk is appreciated but not required.

Exchange Rate Data

Important things to know about the rates we show:

• For Reference Only: Our rates are mid-market rates from institutional feeds. They're accurate but are NOT the rates you'll get from your bank, exchange bureau, or money transfer service.
• No Guarantees: Exchange rates change constantly. We update every 60 seconds but can't guarantee 100% real-time accuracy at the exact moment you check.
• Not Financial Advice: We provide data, not advice. Don't make major financial decisions based solely on our rates without consulting a professional.
• Third-Party Rates: Banks, exchange services, and transfer companies add their own margins and fees. The rate you actually get will be different (usually worse) than what we show.

Disclaimer of Warranties

EuroRate UK is provided "as is" without warranties of any kind. We do our best to provide accurate, up-to-date information, but:

• We don't guarantee 100% uptime or accuracy
• Rates may occasionally be delayed or incorrect due to data provider issues
• Features may change or be removed without notice

Limitation of Liability

We're not liable for any losses or damages arising from your use of EuroRate UK, including but not limited to:

• Financial losses from currency conversions based on our rates
• Missed opportunities due to delayed or incorrect data
• Technical issues, downtime, or service interruptions

You use the service at your own risk. Always verify rates with your financial institution before making transactions.

Intellectual Property

• Our Content: The design, code, and text content of EuroRate UK are owned by us.
• Exchange Rate Data: Currency rates are factual data and not copyrightable. We source them from public financial markets.
• News Content: News articles are aggregated from public RSS feeds and remain the property of their original publishers.

Changes to Service

We may modify, suspend, or discontinue any part of EuroRate UK at any time without notice. It's free, so we reserve the right to change things as needed.

Changes to These Terms

We may update these terms from time to time. Continued use of the site after changes means you accept the new terms.

Governing Law

These terms are governed by the laws of England and Wales. Any disputes will be handled in UK courts.
