Privacy Policy

Last updated: January 1, 2026

1. Overview

EVSolarCalc ("we," "us," or "our") operates the website at evsolarcalc.com. This Privacy Policy explains what information is collected when you use our site, how it is used, and your rights regarding that information.

All calculators on this site run entirely in your browser. We do not collect, store, or transmit any numbers you enter into our calculators. No account registration is required, and we do not ask for your name, email, or any personally identifying information.

2. Information We Collect

We do not directly collect personal data. However, third-party services embedded on this site may automatically collect certain information:

  • IP address — collected by our hosting provider and ad networks for fraud prevention and geographic targeting.
  • Browser and device information — browser type, operating system, screen size, and referrer URL, used by analytics and advertising services.
  • Pages visited and time spent — used by analytics services to understand how visitors use the site so we can improve it.
  • Cookie identifiers — unique identifiers stored in cookies or local storage by advertising and analytics platforms.

3. Cookies

Cookies are small text files placed on your device by websites you visit. We use, or allow third parties to use, the following categories of cookies:

Strictly Necessary

Required for the site to function. These cannot be disabled. They do not store any personally identifiable information.

Analytics

If Google Analytics is active on this site, it places cookies (such as _ga, _gid) to distinguish users and track sessions anonymously. Data is aggregated and not tied to any individual.

Advertising (Google AdSense)

We display ads served by Google AdSense. Google may use cookies (such as NID, IDE) to serve personalized ads based on your browsing history across sites. Google is a third-party vendor that uses cookies to serve ads based on your prior visits to this site and other sites on the internet.

You can opt out of personalized advertising by visiting Google's Ads Settings or the Network Advertising Initiative opt-out page. You can also disable cookies in your browser settings.

4. Google AdSense and Third-Party Ads

EVSolarCalc participates in the Google AdSense program. Google AdSense uses DoubleClick cookies to serve relevant ads to visitors. Third-party ad vendors, including Google, use cookies to serve ads based on a user's prior visits to this website or other websites.

Third-party ad networks have their own privacy policies governing the use of data. We encourage you to review Google's Privacy Policy for more information.

5. Google Analytics

This site may use Google Analytics to understand traffic patterns and improve the user experience. Google Analytics collects information such as how often users visit the site, what pages they visit, and what other sites they used prior to coming to this site. We use this information only to improve the site. Google Analytics collects only the IP address assigned to you on the date you visit the site. We do not combine the information collected with personally identifiable information.

6. How We Use Information

Information collected by third-party services on our behalf is used to:

  • Serve relevant advertisements
  • Analyze site traffic and usage patterns
  • Detect and prevent fraud or abuse
  • Improve the site's content and performance

We do not sell, rent, or share any personal information with third parties for their own marketing purposes beyond the ad-serving and analytics described above.

7. Your Rights — GDPR (EEA/UK)

If you are located in the European Economic Area or the United Kingdom, you have the following rights under the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR):

  • Right of access — request a copy of data held about you.
  • Right to rectification — request correction of inaccurate data.
  • Right to erasure — request deletion of your data.
  • Right to restrict processing — request that we limit how data is used.
  • Right to object — object to processing for direct marketing or profiling.
  • Right to data portability — receive your data in a portable format.

To exercise these rights, contact us at contact@evsolarcalc.com. Note that some rights apply only to data we directly control; for data processed by Google, please contact Google directly.

8. Your Rights — CCPA (California)

If you are a California resident, the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA) grants you the following rights:

  • Right to know — the categories and specific pieces of personal information collected about you.
  • Right to delete — request deletion of personal information we have collected.
  • Right to opt out of sale — we do not sell personal information.
  • Right to non-discrimination — we will not discriminate against you for exercising your CCPA rights.

To submit a CCPA request, email contact@evsolarcalc.com.

9. Children's Privacy

This site is not directed at children under the age of 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If you believe a child has provided personal information, please contact us and we will take steps to delete it.

10. Data Retention

Because we do not directly collect personal data, we have no data retention obligation. Data collected by third-party services (Google Analytics, Google AdSense) is retained according to their own policies. Analytics data is typically retained for 26 months by default.

11. Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. Changes will be posted on this page with a revised "Last updated" date. Continued use of the site after any changes constitutes acceptance of the updated policy.
