ULEZ Checker App Privacy Policy

Last updated: January 2026

This privacy policy explains how the Motorwise ULEZ Checker mobile application ("the App") collects, uses, and protects your information. We are committed to protecting your privacy and being transparent about our data practices.

Data We Collect

Vehicle Registration Numbers

When you use the App to check a vehicle, you provide a UK vehicle registration number. This is sent to our servers to retrieve vehicle information from the DVLA database.

Registration numbers are used solely to perform the vehicle lookup and are not permanently stored on our servers or linked to any personal identity.

Data We Don't Collect

  • Personal information (name, email, phone number)
  • Location data
  • Device identifiers or advertising IDs
  • Usage analytics or tracking data
  • Photos, contacts, or other device data

How We Use Your Data

The registration number you enter is used exclusively to:

  • Query the DVLA database for vehicle information
  • Determine ULEZ compliance based on fuel type and Euro standard
  • Display results to you within the App

Data Storage & Caching

On Your Device

The App may temporarily cache recent vehicle lookup results on your device to improve performance. This cache is cleared when you uninstall the App.

On Our Servers

Registration numbers are processed in real-time and are not permanently stored. We do not maintain logs of individual vehicle lookups.

Third-Party Services

The App communicates with the following external services:

DVLA Vehicle Enquiry Service

Vehicle data is retrieved from the official DVLA database via our secure API. The DVLA's privacy policy applies to the vehicle data they provide.

Security

  • All data transmission uses HTTPS encryption
  • No user accounts or authentication required
  • Minimal data collection by design

Children's Privacy

The App does not knowingly collect any personal information from children. The App is designed for general use by anyone checking vehicle ULEZ compliance.

Your Rights

Since we don't collect or store personal data, there is no personal data to access, correct, or delete. Uninstalling the App removes all locally cached data from your device.

Changes to This Policy

We may update this privacy policy from time to time. Any changes will be reflected on this page with an updated revision date. We encourage you to review this policy periodically.
