Privacy policy
Last updated 6 November 2026 · Applies to buyGPUs.co.uk, a GPU price-comparison and affiliate site.
Who we are
buyGPUs Ltd (“we”, “us”) is a price-comparison site: we track graphics-card prices at UK retailers and show where each card is cheapest. We do not operate a shop, we hold no stock, and we never handle card numbers. The personal data described on this page is processed to show you prices, remember which cards you narrow down, and keep the site secure.
Controller: buyGPUs Ltd, 14 Foundry Lane, Manchester M4 — contact details in the Contact section.
What we collect and why
The table below lists every category of personal data we process, its purpose and the lawful basis we rely on.
| Personal data | Purpose | Lawful basis |
|---|---|---|
| Filter choices (cards you narrow to) | To show the cards you narrowed to while you browse | Functionality |
| Reviews | To publish reviews tied to tested builds | Consent |
| Affiliate click records | To attribute commission to the retailer offer you actually opened — a timestamp and a code, never your name | Contract with service |
We never collect: card numbers, passwords, bank details, or precise location. We don’t sell data to advertisers and we don’t run an ad network.
How affiliate links work
Links to retailers (Overclockers UK, Amazon, Currys, AO, John Lewis and the rest) carry an affiliate code: if you buy through one of them, a retailer may pay us a small commission. That money funds nothing editorial — our ranking of “cheapest” is computed from the retailers’ own published prices, and commission never changes it.
Your rights (UK GDPR)
- Access & correction: write to us and ask what records we hold about you.
- Deletion: request deletion of your review history — we delete within 7 days of the request.
- Portability: we export your own review history on request (CSV or JSON).
- No profiling: we don’t use personal data to price cards or rank reviews against you.
Third parties that may process data
- Retailers we link to — once you click through, their own privacy policy applies; affiliate codes identify our link, not you.
- Fonts (Google Fonts) — the font request sees your browser, not an identity; we self-host fonts as soon as licence allows.
- Photography (Pexels) — royalty-free stock photography, no tracking involved.
