Privacy Policy

Last Updated: January 1, 2025

Welcome to EV Zapster ("we," "us," or "our"). As a new service launched in 2025, we are committed to protecting your privacy and being transparent about how we collect, use, and handle your information. This Privacy Policy applies to your use of our website, tools, and services (collectively, the "Service").

1. Information We Collect

To provide and improve our Service, we collect the following types of information:

  • Information You Provide Voluntarily: When you use our tools (like the range estimator or cost calculator), you may enter details like your vehicle model, trip details, or electricity costs. This information is used solely to provide the service you requested and is not stored by us. When you use our contact form, we collect your name, email, and message to respond to your inquiry.
  • Information Collected Automatically (Usage Data): If you provide consent, we automatically collect standard technical information when you use our Service. This includes your IP address, browser type, device information, pages visited, and the time and date of your visit. This data is collected through server logs and third-party analytics services like Google Analytics.
  • Data Stored Locally: The "My Garage" feature saves your selected vehicle data in your browser's local storage. The cookie consent choice is also stored locally. This information is stored only on your device and is not transmitted to our servers.

2. How We Use Your Information

We use the information we collect for the following purposes:

  • To Operate and Provide the Service: Inputs you provide to our tools are processed to generate the calculations and insights you request. We do not store these inputs on our servers after the request is complete.
  • To Communicate With You: We use information from the contact form to respond to your inquiries, comments, and questions.
  • To Improve and Analyze Our Service: With your consent, we analyze Usage Data to understand user behavior, identify popular features, and enhance the overall user experience. This helps us make informed decisions about future improvements.
  • For Security and Fraud Prevention: We may use information to protect the security and integrity of our Service and our users.

3. Cookies and Tracking Technologies

Like most websites, EV Zapster uses cookies and similar technologies to operate and personalize your experience. A cookie is a small text file stored on your device. We only use non-essential cookies for analytics and advertising if you provide explicit consent through our cookie banner.

Types of Cookies We Use:

  • Essential Cookies: These are necessary for the website to function properly. For example, they are used to remember your cookie consent choices and theme preferences. They do not track your activity.
  • Analytics & Performance Cookies: Subject to your consent, these cookies, provided by services like Google Analytics, help us understand how visitors interact with our website by collecting and reporting information anonymously. This data helps us improve the site.
  • Advertising Cookies: Subject to your consent, we partner with advertising networks like Google AdSense. These partners may use cookies to collect information about your visits to this and other websites to provide you with relevant advertisements.

Managing Your Consent

You are in control. You can accept or decline non-essential cookies at any time using the cookie banner. Your choices are respected, and you can continue to use our Service regardless of your decision.

4. Third-Party Services and Data Sharing

We do not sell your personal information. However, we may share data with trusted third-party service providers to help us operate and improve our Service, subject to your consent where applicable:

  • Google Analytics: We use Google Analytics to analyze website traffic. This service is only enabled if you provide consent. You can learn about Google's practices by visiting www.google.com/policies/privacy/partners/, and opt out by using the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on.
  • Google AdSense & DoubleClick Cookie: We use Google AdSense to serve ads, which is only enabled if you provide consent. Google's use of the DoubleClick cookie enables it and its partners to serve ads based on your visit to our site and/or other sites on the Internet. You may opt out of the use of the DoubleClick cookie for interest-based advertising by visiting Ads Settings.

5. Your Data Protection Rights (GDPR & CCPA)

Depending on your location, you may have certain data protection rights. We are committed to upholding these rights for all our users.
