Privacy Policy

This policy explains what information MySolarGuideHub.com ("we," "us," or "this site") collects from visitors, how it's used, and the choices available to you. By using this site, you agree to the practices described below.

Information we collect

This site is a static publication with no user accounts, comments, or logins. The information we may collect falls into two categories:

• Information you provide directly. If you email us, we receive whatever information you include in that message, such as your email address and its contents. We use this only to respond to you and do not add it to any marketing list without your separate consent.
• Information collected automatically. Like most websites, our hosting provider and any analytics tools we use may automatically log standard technical information, such as your approximate location derived from IP address, browser type, device type, pages visited, and referring pages. This is used in aggregate to understand how the site is used and is not used to identify you personally.

Cookies and similar technologies

This site may use cookies or similar local storage technologies for basic functionality and for privacy-respecting analytics. These do not track you across other websites. You can disable cookies through your browser settings; doing so will not affect your ability to read guides on this site, though some minor functionality may be affected.

How we use information

Any information collected is used only to:

• Operate, maintain, and improve the content and performance of this site
• Understand which guides are useful to readers, in aggregate
• Respond to messages sent to us directly

We do not sell, rent, or trade personal information to third parties, and we do not operate any lead-generation service that shares your details with solar installers or manufacturers.

Third-party services

We may use third-party services for website hosting, content delivery, and analytics. These providers may process technical data (such as IP address) as part of delivering their service to us, under their own privacy policies. We select providers that are contractually required to use this data only to provide their service to us.

External links

Guides on this site may link to external sources, such as government energy offices or manufacturer specification sheets, for further reading. We are not responsible for the privacy practices or content of external sites, and we encourage you to review their policies independently.

Data retention

Direct correspondence (such as emails) is retained only as long as needed to address your inquiry, unless a longer period is required for legitimate business or legal reasons. Aggregated, non-identifying analytics data may be retained longer to track trends over time.

Your rights

Depending on where you live, you may have rights to request access to, correction of, or deletion of personal information we hold about you — most commonly, this would be the contents of an email you sent us. To make such a request, contact us using the details below.

Children's privacy

This site is intended for a general adult audience researching home solar energy and is not directed at children. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children.

Changes to this policy

We may update this policy from time to time to reflect changes in our practices or for legal or operational reasons. The "last updated" date at the top of this page reflects the most recent revision. Continued use of the site after changes are posted constitutes acceptance of the updated policy.
