Frequently asked questions
- Yes. All four calculators run client-side and don't need an account. Only the MOT-due reminder asks for an email so we know where to send the alert — that's the only paid touchpoint, and the reminder email itself is free.
- Yes. The road-tax calculator implements the published HMRC/DVLA VED bands for every regime. The depreciation curve is derived from aggregated UK transaction data. The VIN decoder uses the published ISO 3779 / WMI standard.
- So we can send the reminder. We don't subscribe you to anything else by default, and you can opt out from the first email. Your email isn't shared with third parties.
