Privacy Policy
This policy explains what data Heat Pump Reviews Site collects, how we use it, and how to control or remove it. The policy applies to everything served from this domain.
What we collect automatically
- Anonymous analytics: page views, referrers, device type and broad geography, via Google Analytics 4 and Google Search Console. We use this to understand which guides and tools are useful — not to identify individual people.
- Standard server logs: IP address and user agent, retained briefly for abuse and uptime monitoring.
What we collect when you give it to us
- Newsletter email: if you subscribe to our monthly efficiency briefing, we store your email and the date you subscribed. We use it only to send the briefing.
- Comment data: if you post a comment, WordPress stores your name, email and the comment itself. Your email is never published.
- Contact emails: if you email us, we keep the thread so we can answer.
What stays on your device
Our on-site tools — the heat pump quiz, the size calculator, the savings tracker and the smart-home planner — save your inputs and results in your browser’s localStorage. That data never leaves your device and is not sent to our server. You can clear it any time by clearing your site data in your browser settings, or by clicking “Reset” on the personalization banner.
What we don’t do
We don’t sell your data. We don’t run third-party ad networks. We don’t share newsletter subscribers with manufacturers. Affiliate clicks pass through Amazon’s standard tracking — we never see your purchase details, only an aggregate commission report.
Your rights
You can unsubscribe from the newsletter at any time via the link in every email. You can request deletion of your comment data via Contact. EU and UK residents have the additional rights under GDPR/UK-GDPR (access, portability, erasure) — we honor those on request.
Cookies
See our Cookie Policy for the specific cookies we use and how to control them.
Updates
If we materially change this policy we’ll re-date the page and, where appropriate, notify newsletter subscribers.
