Cookie Policy
Last Updated: June 21, 2026. This policy explains what cookies we use, why we use them, and how you can manage cookie settings in your browser.
1. What are Cookies?
Cookies are small text files stored on your computer or mobile device when you visit a website. They are widely used to make websites work efficiently, save user preferences, and provide analytics information to website owners.
2. How We Use Cookies
Costa Solar Guide uses cookies for three primary purposes:
- Essential (Functional) Cookies: These are required to operate specific site features. For example, maintaining form state as you move through our multi-step lead forms, storing upload tokens, and security configurations. These do not store personal details.
- Performance & Analytics Cookies: We utilize anonymous tracking tools (such as Google Analytics or PostHog) to understand how visitors navigate our pages, identifying slow-loading content or layout friction. These tools do not record names, emails, or personal identification codes.
- Marketing & Referrals Tracking: We use cookies to detect UTM parameters (campaign variables) in order to log which search query or page generated an installer introduction. This is critical for our commercial referral auditing.
3. Third-Party Cookies
In some instances, cookies are set by external services we integrate, such as map interfaces or video guides. We do not control these third-party cookies. We encourage users to inspect third-party cookie documentation for control settings.
4. How to Manage Cookies
You can configure your browser to block, refuse, or delete cookies at any time. Consult your browser's “Help” or “Settings” section to adjust these preferences.
Please note that blocking essential cookies may disrupt form submittals, file uploads, or dashboard navigation on the Costa Solar Guide site.
Any changes to this policy will be published here. For questions regarding tracking cookie protocols, reach out via email to info@costasolarguide.com.
