Privacy Notice
How we use your informationLast updated 4 September 2026
Who we are
Get A Better Quote (https://getabetterquote.co.uk) publishes information about health and life insurance in the United Kingdom and operates a commercial lead-generation service for readers who request quotes. We are the data controller for the information described in this notice. You can contact us through the contact page.
What we collect and why
When you request a quote
If you complete our quote form we collect your first name, telephone number, age band, postcode, who you want cover for and, if you choose to give it, your email address. We also record the page you were on, the time, your IP address and browser type, and the wording of the consent you gave. Do not enter medical history in this form.
We commercially share the completed enquiry with so it can handle your quote request and contact you by telephone and, if provided, email. We may be paid for providing that lead. The broker becomes an independent data controller when it receives the enquiry and is responsible for its own privacy information and subsequent use.
Lawful basis: your consent, which you give through a separate unticked box on the final form stage. You can withdraw it at any time. The broker must not use your information for unrelated marketing unless it has another valid basis or obtains any further consent required.
When you use our contact form
If you use the contact form we collect your name, email address, chosen topic and message, plus the page URL if given, your IP address and the time submitted. We use this only to answer your message and, for correction/removal requests about a broker page, to action that request. We do not add contact-form senders to marketing lists.
When you browse the site
Our hosting and security providers process IP addresses and request data to deliver the site and protect it from abuse. Where Google Analytics is enabled it sets its own cookies; the quote form works identically with analytics off.
Who we share it with
- , so it can handle the quote enquiry you requested.
- Service providers who process data on our behalf (hosting, email delivery, analytics), under contract and only for those purposes.
- Anyone we are legally required to share it with.
The commercial transfer described above is the only sale or sharing of quote-form information we intend. We do not provide it to unrelated list buyers or use it for marketing unrelated to your quote request.
How long we keep it
Quote requests are kept for up to 12 months so we can answer queries about the introduction and demonstrate the consent given, then deleted unless a longer period is legally required. The receiving broker applies its own disclosed retention period.
Your rights
Under UK data protection law you can ask us to: tell you what information we hold about you; correct it; delete it; restrict how we use it; or send it to you in a portable format. You can withdraw consent at any time — if you no longer want the broker to contact you, tell us via the contact page and we will ask them to stop, or tell the broker directly. You also have the right to complain to the Information Commissioner's Office at ico.org.uk.
Security and transfers
Quote requests are sent over an encrypted connection and passed to brokers by secure means. Our servers are located in the United States (Google Cloud) with appropriate safeguards in place for that transfer; brokers we introduce you to are based in the UK.
Changes
If we change how we use your information we will update this page and the date at the top.
