Introduction
This Privacy Policy explains how SolarGeneratorHQ, an affiliate-supported review and comparison site operated by Melissa Prezios, collects, uses, discloses, and protects information when visitors access the site, submit forms, or interact with links and ads. This policy covers information collected through the website and related communications, and it may be updated from time to time as practices or legal requirements change.
The site is designed to compare products and services and may earn commissions through affiliate relationships. That commercial structure does not change the basic aim of this policy: to describe what information may be collected and how it may be used. Some data practices are standard across similar websites, though individual experiences may differ depending on browser settings, ad preferences, and the pages visited.
Information We Collect
SolarGeneratorHQ may collect information you provide directly, such as details submitted through contact forms or email. That can include your name, email address, and the contents of your message. The site may also collect technical and usage information automatically through cookies, analytics tools, and similar technologies.
Automatically collected data may include referrer information, device type, browser type, operating system, approximate location inferred from IP address, pages viewed, time on page, and click activity. Where ad platforms are involved, the site may collect or receive click IDs such as gclid, msclkid, wbraid, and gbraid. Some systems may also record conversion-related events or page interactions for measurement and attribution purposes.
How We Use Information
Information is used to operate and improve the site, understand how visitors navigate content, measure content performance, and support conversion tracking for affiliate and advertising relationships. The site may use data to troubleshoot technical issues, maintain security, and analyze which pages are most useful to readers.
Contact form submissions and email messages are used to respond to questions, feedback, or privacy requests. Some customer experiences with similar sites describe faster responses when messages include enough detail, though results vary based on the nature of the request and the volume of incoming messages.
Third Parties
SolarGeneratorHQ may share or disclose information to third parties that help operate the site or support advertising and affiliate measurement. These third parties may include:
- Google Ads, which may provide ad delivery, remarketing, and conversion measurement services.
- Microsoft Ads, which may support ad delivery and conversion tracking.
- Affiliate networks such as MaxBounty, DFO Performance, ClickBank, MaxWeb, and BuyGoods, which may track referrals, clicks, and commissions.
- The hosting provider, which may process server logs, security data, and site traffic information.
- The email provider, which may store and transmit contact form submissions and messages.
These third parties may collect information under their own privacy policies and may use cookies, pixel tags, click IDs, or similar technologies. The site does not control those third-party practices, and users should review the relevant policies where applicable.
Cookies & Similar Technologies
Cookies and related technologies may be used to remember preferences, measure site performance, support analytics, and attribute affiliate or advertising activity. Some cookies are necessary for basic site functions, while others may help understand which pages attract traffic or which links are clicked. Some visitors may prefer to disable cookies in their browser, though doing so can affect site functionality.
Analytics and ad technologies may place identifiers on the device, including tracking pixels or tag-based signals. These technologies can help determine whether a visit resulted from an ad or affiliate placement, but results vary based on browser restrictions, consent settings, and device behavior. Where required by law, consent choices may be respected.
Your Rights
Depending on where you live, you may have rights to access, correct, delete, or restrict the use of your personal information. You may also have the right to opt out of targeted advertising, certain forms of profiling, or the sale or sharing of personal information where those concepts apply under local law. GDPR and CCPA rights may apply in some circumstances, but eligibility depends on the legal framework and the nature of the request.
To make a request, contact the site using the details below. Verification may be required before a request is completed. Some requests can be fulfilled quickly, while others may take longer depending on the complexity of the records involved and applicable legal obligations.
Data Retention
Information is retained only as long as reasonably necessary for the purposes described in this policy, including operating the site, maintaining records, supporting analytics, meeting legal obligations, resolving disputes, and enforcing agreements. Retention periods may differ by data type. For example, analytics logs, email correspondence, and advertising records may be kept for different lengths of time depending on business and compliance needs.
When information is no longer needed, the site may delete it, anonymize it, or store it in a limited-access archive where permitted. However, some records may remain available for a longer period if required by law, security needs, or legitimate business purposes.

Privacy requests should include enough detail to identify the information at issue and the action requested. If additional information is needed to confirm identity or process the request, the site may ask for clarification before responding. This policy applies to the extent permitted by law and may be revised as business practices, legal requirements, or platform rules change.
