Privacy Policy
1. Introduction
Welcome to QuoteRadar.co.uk (the "Website"). We respect your privacy and are committed to protecting your personal data and being transparent about how data is handled when you use our services.
This Privacy Policy explains how we collect and use your data, how our affiliate and referral links work, and your rights under the UK General Data Protection Regulation (UK GDPR) and the Privacy and Electronic Communications Regulations (PECR).
2. Who We Are and Our Role
Zorley LTD trading as QuoteRadar is the operator of this website.
It is important to understand our role regarding your data. We operate a digital referral and introductory service through two primary methods:
As an Introducer Appointed Representative (IAR): We introduce you to FCA-authorised insurance brokers.
As an Affiliate Publisher: We participate in various affiliate marketing programs and link to third-party products or services.
Crucially, we do not directly collect, store, or process the personal information, financial details, or risk data you submit to obtain an insurance quote or purchase a third-party product.
When you click an affiliate link or fill out an embedded quote form, you are interacting directly with the systems of our broker partners, affiliate networks, or third-party merchants. They act as the Data Controllers for the information you submit to them. We strongly advise you to read their specific Privacy Policies before providing your personal information.
3. The Data We Do Collect
While we do not collect your application or purchase data, we do collect a minimal amount of data to keep our website running securely and to track the performance of our referral links.
If you browse QuoteRadar.co.uk, we may automatically collect:
Technical Data: Including your internet protocol (IP) address, browser type and version, time zone setting, browser plug-in types, and operating system.
Usage Data: Information about how you navigate our website, which pages you view, and which outbound links you click.
Contact Data: If you contact us directly via email with a query or complaint, we will store your email address and name solely to respond to you.
4. Affiliate Links and Third-Party Tracking
Our Website contains affiliate links and embedded forms. This means that if you click on a link to a third-party product or service and make a purchase, we may earn a commission at no additional cost to you.
To ensure we receive this commission, our affiliate partners and networks use tracking technologies (cookies and pixels):
How it works: When you click an affiliate link, a tracking cookie is placed on your device. This cookie contains a random, anonymous alphanumeric identifier (a Click ID) that tells the third-party merchant you came from our website.
What is shared: We do not share your name, email, or personal identity with our affiliate partners. The tracking relies solely on Technical Data and the Click ID.
Consent: Under UK law, the use of affiliate tracking cookies requires your consent unless they are strictly necessary for a service you requested (like a cashback reward). You can manage your preferences for these tracking cookies via our Cookie Consent Banner / Cookie Policy.
We have no control over the tracking cookies set by third-party affiliate networks or insurance brokers once you leave our site. You should review their privacy and cookie policies to understand their data practices.
5. How We Use Your Data and Our Lawful Basis
We will only use the limited data we collect when the law allows us to. We use your data in the following ways:
| Purpose/Activity | Type of Data | Lawful Basis for Processing |
| To administer and protect our website (troubleshooting, security) | Technical | Legitimate Interests (to ensure the secure running of our digital business) |
| To measure the performance of our affiliate and IAR referral links | Technical, Usage | Consent (obtained via our cookie banner) |

| To respond to your direct inquiries or complaints | Contact | Legitimate Interests (to provide customer service) / Legal Obligation (FCA complaint handling rules) |
6. Disclosures of Your Data
Because we hold very little data, our data sharing is strictly limited. We may share your Technical or Usage Data with:
Service Providers: IT and system administration providers who host and support our digital infrastructure (e.g., website hosting, analytics providers like Google Analytics).
Regulators: Including the FCA, the ICO, or our Principal Firm, Policy Link Ltd trading as iRevolution Connect, if requested for compliance auditing purposes.
We require all third parties to respect the security of your personal data and to treat it in accordance with the law.
7. Data Security and Retention
We have put in place appropriate security measures (including SSL/TLS encryption) to prevent your personal data from being accidentally lost, used, or accessed in an unauthorised way.
We will only retain your personal data for as long as reasonably necessary to fulfil the purposes we collected it for.
Analytics and Technical Data: Typically aggregated and anonymized, or deleted within 14-26 months.
Contact Data: Emails or complaints are generally kept for up to 3 years to comply with FCA record-keeping requirements for dispute resolution.
8. Your Legal Rights
Under UK data protection laws, you have specific rights regarding your personal data. Because we do not store your insurance or purchase data, these rights apply only to the Technical, Usage, or Contact data we may hold about you:
Request access to the personal data we hold about you.
Request correction of incomplete or inaccurate data.
Request erasure of your personal data (where there is no good reason for us continuing to process it).
Object to processing of your personal data where we rely on a legitimate interest.
Withdraw consent at any time (e.g., changing your cookie preferences).
If you wish to exercise any of these rights, please contact us. Note that if you wish to access or delete the data you submitted for an insurance quote or affiliate purchase, you must contact the relevant broker or merchant directly, as they are the Data Controller for that information.
