Privacy Policy
Last updated: 2026-05-03
Introduction
This privacy policy explains how off-grid-solar-wire-size-simulator.hub2.day handles information when you visit or use the Off-Grid Solar Wire Size Simulator. The site is a focused web utility that helps DIY solar installers, off-grid homesteaders, and RV owners estimate appropriate copper wire gauge based on wire length, current, and acceptable voltage drop.
Information You Enter Locally
The simulator runs in your browser. Values you type—such as wire length, system current, voltage, and acceptable voltage drop—are processed locally and are not transmitted to our servers or stored remotely. You may choose to save project configurations using your browser's local storage; that data stays on your device and is not accessible to us.
Contact Email
If you contact us at hello@off-grid-solar-wire-size-simulator.hub2.day, we will use your message and email address only to respond to your inquiry. We do not add contact emails to marketing lists or share them with unrelated third parties.
Server and Security Logs
Our hosting provider may automatically collect limited server logs, including IP addresses, request timestamps, browser type, and referring URLs. These logs are used for security, abuse prevention, and basic availability monitoring. Log data is retained for no longer than 90 days unless needed to investigate a security incident.
Cookies and Local Storage
The site may use first-party cookies or browser local storage to remember your preferences, such as unit selections or consent choices. We do not use first-party cookies for cross-site tracking.
Google AdSense and Advertising
This site uses Google AdSense to display advertisements. Google and its advertising partners may use cookies, web beacons, and similar technologies to collect information about your browsing activity across websites in order to serve personalized or contextual ads. This may include:

GDPR / EEA / UK Consent
If you are located in the European Economic Area or the United Kingdom, we rely on your consent before setting non-essential cookies or processing personal data for advertising purposes. When you first visit the site, you will be presented with a consent mechanism allowing you to accept or decline non-essential cookies. You may withdraw or modify your consent at any time through the cookie settings link available on the site.
Under GDPR and UK data protection law, you have the right to access, correct, delete, or port your personal data, and to object to or restrict certain processing. To exercise these rights, contact us at hello@off-grid-solar-wire-size-simulator.hub2.day.
CCPA / CPRA Consumer Choices
If you are a California resident, the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA) as amended by the CPRA gives you the right to know what personal information is collected, to request deletion, and to opt out of the sale or sharing of personal information for cross-context behavioral advertising. While we do not sell personal data, Google AdSense may engage in activities that qualify as "sharing" under CPRA. You may opt out by using the "Do Not Sell or Share My Personal Information" link or by adjusting your ad personalization settings as described in the Google AdSense section above.

We use third-party service providers for hosting, analytics, and advertising. These providers may process limited data on our behalf under contractual obligations to protect it. A current list includes:

Data Retention
We retain personal data only as long as necessary for the purposes described in this policy. Server logs are retained up to 90 days. Contact emails are retained as long as needed to resolve your inquiry and for a reasonable period thereafter for record-keeping. Advertising-related data collected by third-party ad partners is subject to their own retention policies.
Children's Privacy
This site is not directed to children under 13 (or the applicable age of consent in your jurisdiction). We do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If you believe a child has provided personal data, please contact us and we will take steps to delete it.
Security
We implement reasonable technical and organizational measures to protect information in our control, including HTTPS encryption for data in transit. However, no method of electronic transmission or storage is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.
Third-Party Links
The site may contain links to external websites, including those served through advertising. We are not responsible for the privacy practices or content of third-party sites. We encourage you to review the privacy policies of any external sites you visit.
International Data Processing
This site is operated from and data may be processed in the United States and other countries where our service providers operate. If you access the site from outside the United States, your information may be transferred to and processed in jurisdictions that may not provide the same level of data protection as your home country.

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