Terms and Scope
A public guide, not a case service.
Use this page to understand what the guide does, what it does not do, and what you should not be asked to share here.
No guaranteed outcome
Official routes decide what changes.
Measurements, comparisons, and paperwork checks can help you ask a clearer question. They do not guarantee a Council Tax band change, refund, review success, or official acceptance. The relevant official body decides outcomes through its own rules, evidence tests, and process.
Regulatory review
ICO and Ofcom guidance has been reviewed.
This matters because the guide keeps to a low-data approach. You can read, measure, print, and follow official links without sending private case material through this website.
Regulatory sources
Data Use and Access Act 2025
ICO page on the Act and guidance changes as provisions commence.
Special category data
ICO guide explaining Article 6, Article 9, documentation, and DPIA considerations.
Special category rules
ICO detail on conditions, safeguards, DPIAs, and records for special category data.
Online Safety Act duties

What you are not asked to share
You are not asked to send case material here.
Measure Your Boxroom does not ask you to use contact forms, upload evidence, request case triage, create an account, publish a report, name people, make allegations, or send material involving health, abuse, vulnerability, capacity, care, finances, crime, or family evidence.
Not part of this guide

If any page asks for private information, pause.
This website is for reading, measuring, printing, and following official links. If you ever see a page that asks for forms, uploads, saved reports, accounts, public posts, case triage, analytics, or sensitive evidence, treat it as a different level of service. Before using it, check that the page clearly explains what would be collected, why it is needed, whether personal or special category data is involved, how online-safety duties are considered, and who would receive or control the information.
