This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, and safeguard personal information when you visit paylaterhotels.co.uk in compliance with the UK General Data Protection Regulation (UK GDPR) and the Data Protection Act 2018.

Because we operate as an informational and aggregation directory, we minimize personal data collection to what is strictly necessary:
- Technical & Log Data: Internet Protocol (IP) address, browser type and version, operating system, referring URL, and pages visited on our website.
- Analytics & Usage Data: Anonymized metrics regarding user interactions, search queries (e.g. city or county searched), and outbound affiliate link clicks.
- Contact Information: If you voluntarily email us, we collect your name and email address solely to reply to your inquiry.
2. How We Use Your Information
We process your data on the following lawful bases:

- Consent: For non-essential cookies where you have provided explicit permission.
