Privacy Policy

Data controller

Salary Scout is operated by Uncommon Works Ltd. If you have any questions about this policy, contact us at hello@salaryscout.co.uk.

What data we collect

Salary Scout does not require you to create an account or provide any personal information to use the site. We collect the following limited data:

• Cookieless analytics (Plausible) — page views, referring URLs, and approximate country. No cookies are set. No personal data is collected or stored. Plausible is GDPR-compliant by design.
• Analytics (Google Analytics 4) — only if you consent. If you accept analytics cookies, GA4 collects session data, page interactions, and device/browser information to help us understand how the site is used. You can decline or change this at any time on our Cookie Policy page.

Salary data sources

All salary figures on this site come from published UK government datasets, including the ONS Annual Survey of Hours and Earnings (ASHE) and HMRC PAYE Real-Time Information. These datasets are published under the Open Government Licence v3.0. No personal data is derived from these datasets.

Your rights

Under UK GDPR you have the right to access, correct, or delete personal data we hold about you. Because we do not collect identifiable personal data in normal site use, most requests will not apply. If you believe we hold personal data about you, contact us at hello@salaryscout.co.uk.

Cookies

See our Cookie Policy for a full inventory of what is stored and how to manage your preferences.

Changes to this policy

We may update this policy from time to time. Significant changes will be noted by updating the “Last updated” date above. Continued use of the site after changes are made constitutes acceptance of the updated policy.
