We may collect information you choose to provide, such as your name, email address, message content, or other details submitted through contact forms, comments, newsletter forms, or similar features.

We may also automatically collect basic technical information such as your IP address, browser type, device type, pages visited, referring pages, approximate location, and timestamps. This may happen through WordPress, hosting logs, analytics tools, cookies, embedded content, or security tools.

Affiliate Links and Advertising

Some links on EV Gear Guide are affiliate links. If you click an affiliate link and make a purchase, we may earn a commission at no extra cost to you. Affiliate networks and retailers may use cookies or tracking technologies to attribute purchases and measure performance.

We aim to disclose affiliate relationships clearly near review content and buying links.

Embedded Content and Third-Party Services

Pages may include embedded videos, images, links, or content from third-party services such as YouTube, affiliate networks, retailers, analytics providers, plugins, or social platforms. Embedded content from other websites may behave as if you visited those websites directly.

Those third parties may collect data, use cookies, track interactions, or apply their own privacy policies. We do not control those third-party practices.
