Who we are

TJL Contractors Ltd ("we", "us") provides umbrella payroll, self-assessment and related contractor services. For the purposes of UK data protection law, we are the data controller for the personal information described in this policy.

This website

This website is a static site. It does not have a contact form, does not use analytics or advertising trackers, and does not set cookies of its own. See our cookie policy for detail.

Our pages load typefaces from Google Fonts. When your browser requests those files, your IP address is transmitted to Google as a technical necessity of serving the font. We do not receive or store that information. If you would prefer this not to happen, most browsers allow you to block third-party font requests without affecting the site's usability.

Information we collect

When you contact us. If you call or email, we receive your name, contact details and whatever you choose to tell us about your contract or circumstances.

When you use our services. To run payroll or file a return we need information such as your name, address, date of birth, National Insurance number, Unique Taxpayer Reference, bank details, timesheets and details of your income and expenses.

When you use the calculator. The take-home calculator runs entirely in your browser. The figures you enter are not sent to us and are not stored.

Why we use it

To provide the payroll, self-assessment or company services you have asked for
To comply with our legal obligations, including tax, employment and anti-money-laundering requirements
To respond to enquiries you send us
To maintain accurate records of the services we have provided

Our lawful bases are the performance of a contract with you, compliance with legal obligations, and our legitimate interests in running our business and responding to enquiries.

Who we share it with

We share personal information only where necessary:

With HMRC and other tax authorities, as required by law
With your agency or end client, to the extent needed to invoice for your work
With payroll, banking and IT providers who help us deliver the service, under contract and only on our instructions
With professional advisers or regulators where we are legally required to disclose

We do not sell personal information, and we do not share it for advertising purposes.

How long we keep it

We keep payroll and tax records for at least six years after the end of the relevant tax year, as required by HMRC. Enquiries that do not lead to a service being provided are kept for a shorter period and then deleted.

Your rights

Under UK data protection law you have the right to:

Ask for a copy of the personal information we hold about you
Ask us to correct information that is inaccurate
Ask us to delete information, where we are not required to keep it
Object to or restrict certain processing
Complain to the Information Commissioner's Office at ico.org.uk

To exercise any of these, contact us at info@tjlcontractors.co.uk. We will respond within one month.

Security

We take reasonable technical and organisational measures to protect personal information against unauthorised access, loss or disclosure. Payroll and tax data is held in systems with access limited to staff who need it to do their job.

Changes to this policy

If we change how we handle personal information we will update this page. This policy was last reviewed in 2026.
