Privacy notice
Last updated: 7 November 2026
High Street Stack is a trading name of Dauda Salau, a sole trader. Business address: 20 Turnmill Avenue, Springfield, Milton Keynes MK6 3HU, United Kingdom. Email: help@highstreetstack.com.
This notice explains what personal information High Street Stack holds when you visit the website or buy a template, why we hold it, and what you can ask us to do with it. Questions go to help@highstreetstack.com.
What we collect
- When you buy. Your name, email address and billing country, plus the order details (what you bought, when, the price and the VAT). The payment itself is taken by the checkout provider. We never see your full card number.
- When you join the deadline reminder list. Your email address, the page you signed up on and the time. We use it to send the free checklist and a short email before each Making Tax Digital and Self Assessment deadline. Every email has an unsubscribe link, and you can also reply to say stop.
- When you email us. Your email address and whatever you write to us.
- When you use the free calculators. The numbers you type stay in your browser. They are not sent to us and we do not store them.
- When you browse the site. Our hosting provider keeps standard server logs (IP address, page, time, browser type). We do not run advertising trackers on the site.
Why we use it, and on what basis
| What we do | Why | Legal basis (UK GDPR) |
|---|---|---|
| Deliver your download and send the receipt | To carry out the sale | Contract |
| Send deadline reminders and the free checklist | You asked for them | Consent (withdraw any time by unsubscribing) |
| Answer your emails and handle refunds | To support what you bought | Contract and legitimate interests |
| Keep order records for tax and accounts | HMRC requires business records for six years | Legal obligation |
| Keep the site working and secure | Fixing faults, blocking abuse | Legitimate interests |
We do not sell your information and we do not use it to make automated decisions about you.
Who else sees it
- Payhip, which runs the checkout on our website and delivers the download, and Stripe, which takes card payments.
- Etsy, if you buy from our Etsy shop.
- Google, whose Forms and Sheets store reminder sign-ups.
- Resend, which sends our emails and receives the ones you send to help@highstreetstack.com.
- GitHub, which hosts the website.
- Our accountant or bookkeeping software, for order totals.
These providers act on our instructions or under their own privacy notices. Some are based outside the UK, mostly in the United States. Where that is so, the transfer relies on the UK's approved safeguards, such as the UK extension to the EU-US Data Privacy Framework or standard contractual clauses.
How long we keep it
- Order records: six years from the end of the financial year of the sale.
- Emails: up to two years after the last message, unless they relate to an order.
- Reminder list: until you unsubscribe. After that we keep only your email address on a do-not-send list, so we never email you again by mistake.
- Server logs: up to 30 days.
Your rights
You can ask to see the information we hold about you, to have it corrected or deleted, to restrict or object to how we use it, and to receive a copy in a portable format. Email help@highstreetstack.com and we will reply within one month. Some records, such as orders, we must keep by law, and we will tell you if that stops us deleting something.
If you are unhappy with how we have handled your information, you can complain to the Information Commissioner's Office at ico.org.uk or on 0303 123 1113. We would like the chance to put it right first.
Cookies
The website itself sets no cookies. The checkout pages are run by Payhip and may set their own; see Payhip's privacy notice.

If we change this notice we will update the date at the top.
