Privacy Policy
Last updated: June 12, 2026
KiloWatt Hub ("we," "us," or "our") respects your privacy. This policy explains what information we collect, how we use it, and the choices available to you.
Information We Collect
Information you provide: If you sign up for our email newsletter or buyer's guide, we collect your email address. We do not require account creation to use this site.
Information collected automatically: Like most websites, we use analytics tools (including Google Analytics) to understand how visitors use our site: pages viewed, time on page, general location (city/region level, not precise location), device type, and referral source. This helps us improve content and understand which articles are most useful.
Cookies
This site uses cookies and similar technologies for analytics, to remember basic preferences, and, if you arrive via a paid advertisement, to measure which ads led to a visit (for example, via Meta Pixel or Pinterest Tag, where applicable). You can disable cookies in your browser settings, though some site features may not work as intended without them.
How We Use Your Information
- To send the email content you signed up for, such as our buyer's guide, via our email service provider, Mailchimp
- To understand site traffic and improve our content and recommendations
- To measure the effectiveness of advertising campaigns, if you arrived via a paid ad
Affiliate Links and Third-Party Tracking
This site contains affiliate links. When you click an affiliate link, you may be redirected through a tracking link operated by us or by an affiliate network such as Impact, CJ Affiliate, Awin, or Pepperjam before reaching the merchant's site. This allows the merchant to attribute the visit to KiloWatt Hub and pay us a commission if you make a purchase, at no additional cost to you. See our Affiliate Disclosure for more.
Third-Party Services We Use
- Google Analytics (GA4) - website traffic analytics
- Mailchimp - email newsletter delivery
- AWS Amplify - website hosting
- Affiliate networks (Impact, CJ Affiliate, Awin, Pepperjam, and direct merchant programs) - for affiliate link tracking and commission attribution
Each of these services has its own privacy policy governing how they handle data.
Data Retention
We retain email addresses for as long as you remain subscribed. Analytics data is retained according to the default retention settings of our analytics provider.
Your Choices
- Unsubscribe: Every email we send includes an unsubscribe link. You can unsubscribe at any time.
- Cookies: You can disable cookies through your browser settings.
- Data deletion requests: To request deletion of your email address from our mailing list or ask what data we hold about you, email us at hello@kilowatthub.com.
