Privacy Policy

This privacy notice explains what personal data Driving Cancellation Finder collects, why we collect it, how we use it and what rights you have over it. We are committed to handling your information in accordance with the UK GDPR and the Data Protection Act 2018.

Last updated: 6 September 2026

1. Who We Are

Driving Cancellation Finder ("we", "us", "the company") operates drivingcancellationfinder.co.uk and the registration service at app.drivingcancellationfinder.co.uk. We are the data controller for the personal data described in this notice.

You can reach us using the contact details in the footer of this website.

2. Information We Collect

We collect the information you give us when you register for and use our service. This includes your name, email address, telephone or WhatsApp number, your driving licence number, your DVSA booking reference, and your preferences for test centres, dates and times.

If you contact us by email, phone or WhatsApp, we keep a record of that correspondence so we can deal with your enquiry.

3. How We Use Your Information

We use your personal data to perform the contract between us — that is, to search the DVSA booking system for earlier practical driving test appointments that match your preferences, to notify you when we find one, and to rearrange your test where you have asked us to.

We also use it to take payment, to respond to your enquiries, and to keep records we are required to keep by law. Where we rely on your consent, such as sending you service messages by email, SMS or phone, you may withdraw that consent at any time.

4. Logging In to the DVSA Website

To provide the service you authorise us to log in to the DVSA booking system on your behalf using your driving licence number and booking reference. We use these details only to check for earlier test dates and to rearrange your test as instructed.

We are not affiliated with the Driver and Vehicle Standards Agency. Your relationship with the DVSA, and the DVSA's own handling of your data, is governed by their terms and privacy notice.

5. Sharing Your Information

We do not sell your personal data, and we do not share it with third parties for their own marketing purposes.

We share it only where necessary to run the service: with the DVSA when acting on your behalf, and with the service providers who host our systems, deliver our messages and process our payments. Card details are handled by our payment provider and are not stored by us. We may also disclose information where we are required to do so by law.

6. Cookies and Analytics

This website does not use tracking cookies, advertising pixels or third-party analytics. We do not build a profile of your browsing activity.

The registration application at app.drivingcancellationfinder.co.uk may set cookies that are strictly necessary to keep you signed in and to operate the service.

7. How Long We Keep Your Data

We keep your personal data for as long as we need it to provide the service to you, and afterwards for as long as we are required to keep records to meet our legal, accounting and regulatory obligations. When we no longer need it, we delete it or anonymise it.

8. Your Rights

Under UK data protection law you have the right to be told what personal data we hold about you and to be given a copy of it, to have inaccurate data corrected, and to ask us to delete it. You may also ask us to restrict how we use it, object to our use of it, and ask for it to be transferred to another provider.

Where our use of your data is based on your consent, you may withdraw that consent at any time. To exercise any of these rights, contact us using the details in the footer of this website. We will respond within one month.

9. Complaints

If you are unhappy with how we have handled your personal data, please contact us first so we can try to put it right.

You also have the right to complain to the Information Commissioner's Office, the UK's data protection regulator, at ico.org.uk or by calling 0303 123 1113.

10. Changes to This Notice

We may update this privacy notice from time to time. Any changes will be published on this page, and the date shown at the top of this page will be updated to reflect when the notice was last revised.
