Privacy Policy

Last updated: May 15, 2026

BESS Manufacturers (bessmanufacturers.com) is an independent directory of Battery Energy Storage System equipment manufacturers. We respect your privacy and are committed to being transparent about how we handle visitor data.

Analytics

We use two cookieless analytics services to understand how visitors use the site. These load automatically on all pages and do not require consent because they do not set cookies or collect personal data:

• Ahrefs Analytics — cookieless, anonymous page-view analytics
• Clicky — cookieless, anonymous traffic analytics

The data collected includes:

• Pages visited and time spent on each page
• Referring website (how you found us)
• General geographic region (country level)
• Browser type and device category (desktop/mobile)

This data is aggregated and anonymous — we cannot identify individual visitors.

Forms and email collection

If you voluntarily submit your email address through our newsletter signup, datasheet notification, or feedback forms, your email is added to our mailing list and sent to our backend service hosted on Vercel. All subscribers are added to the same list regardless of where they signed up. We use this to send occasional updates about new manufacturers, analysis, and site content. We do not sell or share email addresses with third parties.

Cookies and local storage

This site does not set any first-party cookies. We use your browser's local storage to remember:

• Whether you have dismissed the information banner
• Your page rating selections

You can clear this data at any time via your browser settings.
