UK GDPR and Data Requests

This page explains how visitors can contact ukplanningportal.org/ about personal information they may have voluntarily submitted to us. It is not a substitute for the privacy policy of an official council, Planning Portal, GOV.UK service, map provider, or application register.

Data We May Hold

If you contact us, we may hold your email address, name if provided, message content, page URL, correction details, and official source links you sent. We do not intentionally collect planning application submissions, payment details, official account credentials, or identity documents.

Requests You Can Make

  • Ask whether we hold a message you sent.
  • Ask us to correct contact details in a message thread.
  • Ask us to delete a non-essential message where technically and legally possible.
  • Ask privacy questions about our website content and contact process.

How to Contact Us

Email privacy requests to contact@ukplanningportal.org. To protect privacy, we may need to verify that the request relates to the same email address used in the original contact message. Do not send passports, driving licences, bank details, or planning documents unless specifically necessary and safe.

Official Records Are Separate

Planning application registers, council comments, decision notices, enforcement records, public documents, and official application data are controlled by the relevant public authority or official service. Requests about those records must be made to the official body, not to ukplanningportal.org/.
