What this site does with your data
The speed test on checkmyspeed.uk sends test data between your browser and our test server on Cloudflare’s network. The server counts that data and throws it away; nothing about your test is stored on our side. To show your provider and the server you were tested against, the server reads the network details that come with every connection (your provider’s name and approximate location). These are shown only to you and not kept. Your past results and the speeds you type in are saved in your browser’s local storage, which you can clear at any time.
Analytics
We use Cloudflare Web Analytics to count visits. It does not use cookies, does not track you across sites and does not collect personal data. It records things like the page viewed, the referring site, the country and the type of browser.
Advertising
This site shows ads from Google AdSense. Google and its partners may use cookies to show ads based on your previous visits to this and other websites. You will be asked for consent before any personalised advertising cookies are set, and you can change your choice at any time from the privacy link Google shows on the page.
You can manage personalised ads in Google’s ad settings and read how Google uses data from partner sites.
Affiliate links
Some links on this site are affiliate links. If you buy through one we may earn a commission at no extra cost to you. Affiliate links are labelled where they appear.
Your rights
Under UK GDPR you can ask what data is held about you and ask for it to be deleted. As this site holds no personal data itself, requests about advertising data should go to Google. For anything else, email [email protected].
