Privacy policy

This privacy policy explains what data is processed when you visit holidaytally.com. Last updated: 14 November 2026.

The data controller is MonoApps, which publishes HolidayTally. For any privacy question or request, write to privacy@holidaytally.com.

HolidayTally has no accounts, no sign-up forms and no newsletter. The tools on the site, the working days calculator and the leave planner, run entirely in your browser: the dates and jurisdictions you enter never leave your browser and are not sent to us or to anyone else.

The site is hosted on Cloudflare. To deliver and protect the pages, Cloudflare processes technical data such as your IP address, the page requested, your browser's user agent and the time of the request. We use Cloudflare Web Analytics to count visits. Cloudflare Web Analytics does not use cookies, does not store anything on your device and does not track you across websites; it gives us aggregate figures such as page views, referring sites, countries and browser types. The legal basis for this processing is our legitimate interest in running a secure site and knowing which pages are used.

We also use Google Analytics 4, a service of Google, to understand how visitors use the site: which pages are read, how visitors arrive and roughly where they come from. Google Analytics sets first-party cookies (named _ga) and collects data such as the pages viewed, the referring site, your device and browser type and an approximate location derived from your IP address; Google Analytics 4 does not log or store IP addresses. If you visit from the European Economic Area, the United Kingdom or Switzerland, analytics cookies stay off until you give your consent in the consent message described below. The legal basis is your consent in those areas and our legitimate interest elsewhere. You can block Google Analytics with Google's opt-out browser add-on at https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout.

The site is funded by advertising served by Google AdSense. When ads are shown, third-party vendors, including Google, use cookies to serve ads based on your prior visits to this website or other websites. Google's use of advertising cookies enables it and its partners to serve ads to you based on your visit to this site and/or other sites on the Internet. You can opt out of personalised advertising by visiting Google Ads Settings at https://adssettings.google.com. You can also opt out of some third-party vendors' use of cookies for personalised advertising by visiting https://www.aboutads.info. Google explains how it uses data from sites that show its ads at https://policies.google.com/technologies/partner-sites.

The site also offers Grow by Mediavine, a widget that lets you save pages and find more articles from this site. Grow is provided by Mediavine, Inc. and loads only after the consent message has recorded your choice; in the European Economic Area, the United Kingdom and Switzerland it loads only if you agree to the storing of information on your device. When it runs, Grow uses cookies and similar storage to recognise your browser and, if you create a Grow account, your saved pages. Mediavine describes its processing at https://www.mediavine.com/privacy-policy/.

HolidayTally has visitors from across Europe. If you are in the European Economic Area or the United Kingdom, the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) applies to the processing described on this page; if you are in Switzerland, the Swiss Federal Act on Data Protection (nDSG, in English revFADP) applies. For visitors in these areas, consent is the legal basis for advertising cookies and similar technologies on your device, and the legal basis for the server and analytics data above is our legitimate interest. Your data may be processed outside your country, including by Cloudflare and Google in the United States, under the safeguards these companies describe in their own documentation, such as standard contractual clauses or the EU-US Data Privacy Framework.

If you visit from the European Economic Area, the United Kingdom or Switzerland, a consent message from Google, a certified consent management platform, asks for your choice before advertising cookies are used for personalised ads. You can accept, refuse or choose by purpose, and you can change or withdraw your choice later from the privacy settings link provided by the same message. If you refuse, Google may still show non-personalised ads, which use cookies only for purposes such as frequency capping, aggregated ad reporting and fraud prevention.

We do not receive the cookies set by Google or its partners, and we do not combine advertising data with any other data about you. Google's own processing is described in its privacy policy at https://policies.google.com/privacy.

Apart from the Google Analytics cookies described above, HolidayTally sets no cookies for analytics or preferences. If a page remembers a setting, such as the jurisdiction you last picked in a tool, it keeps it only in your browser's local storage, where you can clear it at any time.

If you write to us by email, we use your address and message only to reply, and we keep them only as long as needed for that conversation.

Depending on where you live, you may have the right to access, correct or delete your personal data, to object to or restrict its processing, to receive a copy of it and to withdraw consent at any time, without affecting the processing done before. Under the GDPR and the nDSG these rights are set by law. To exercise them, write to privacy@holidaytally.com. You also have the right to lodge a complaint with your local data protection authority, for example the supervisory authority of the EU country where you live or work, the Information Commissioner's Office in the United Kingdom or the Federal Data Protection and Information Commissioner (FDPIC) in Switzerland.

HolidayTally is a general-audience site and is not directed at children.

If this policy changes, the new version is published on this page with a new date.
