Privacy Policy
Last updated: July 2026
Who we are
Energy And Solar Products ("we", "us", "our") operates the website energyandsolarproducts.co.uk. We are an independent editorial publisher of reviews and buyer's guides for home energy and solar products. We do not sell or install products and we do not operate a sales or quote service. Our contact email is [email protected].
Personal data we collect
When you send us a message through our contact form we collect:
- Your name
- Your email address
- The content of your message
We also collect standard, aggregated analytics about how the site is used (see "Cookies & analytics" below). We do not collect special-category data or data relating to children, and we do not ask for postcodes, phone numbers or payment details.
How we use your data
| Purpose | Lawful basis |
|---|---|
| Reply to your message, tip or correction | Legitimate interest (Art. 6(1)(f) UK GDPR) |
| Understand and improve the site (aggregated, anonymised analytics) | Legitimate interest |
We will never sell your data, and we do not pass the details you send us to any third party for their own marketing.
Affiliate links
Many of the outbound product links on this site are affiliate links. If you click one and go on to buy from the retailer, we may earn a commission at no extra cost to you. When you follow such a link you leave our site, and the retailer or affiliate network (for example Amazon Associates) becomes responsible for any data it collects under its own privacy policy. We do not receive your payment details, and affiliate commissions never influence our reviews or rankings.
Cookies & analytics
Our site uses only essential cookies plus Google Analytics 4 with IP anonymisation enabled, to understand which content is useful. We do not run our own advertising or tracking cookies. Affiliate networks may set a cookie when you click an outbound product link, so the retailer can attribute a sale. You can disable non-essential cookies via your browser settings; the site will still work.
Data retention
- Contact-form messages: retained for up to 12 months after our last reply, then deleted.
- Anonymised analytics data: retained in aggregate form.
Your UK GDPR rights
You have the right to:
- Access the personal data we hold about you
- Rectify inaccurate or incomplete data
- Erasure ("right to be forgotten") in the circumstances the law allows
- Restrict or object to processing based on legitimate interest
- Data portability for data you provided
To exercise any right, email [email protected]. We will respond within one calendar month.
Security
We use appropriate technical and organisational measures (TLS encryption, access controls) to protect your data against unauthorised access, loss or alteration.
Changes to this policy
Any material changes will be posted on this page with a revised "Last updated" date. Continued use of the site after changes constitutes acceptance.
