Privacy policy

Last updated 16 October 2026

The short version

You don't need an account to use PlugFacts, and the calculators run in your own browser. We don't ask for your name, address or payment details.

What stays in your browser

To save you retyping, the site remembers your chosen country, currency and electricity price in your browser's local storage. This never leaves your device, and you can clear it at any time in your browser settings.

Analytics

We use Cloudflare Web Analytics to count visits and see which pages are popular. It doesn't use cookies, doesn't collect personal information and doesn't track you across other websites. Our hosting provider, Cloudflare, also processes basic technical data such as IP addresses to deliver the site and protect it from attacks.

Advertising

When we show ads, they come from Google AdSense. Google and its partners may then use cookies to show ads based on your visits to this and other websites. You can manage this in Google's ad settings, and learn more in how Google uses information from sites that use its services. Before any personalised ads or advertising cookies are used, visitors in the European Economic Area, the UK and Switzerland are asked for their consent.

Affiliate links

Some links may be affiliate links. If you follow one, the shop may use cookies to know you came from PlugFacts. We don't receive your personal details.

Emails

If you email us, we use your message and address only to read and reply, and we delete them when they're no longer needed.

Your rights and questions

Depending on where you live, you may have rights to access or delete data about you. Email [email protected] with any question about this policy.
