About this policy
This policy explains how solarstreetlight.company, the Solar Street Light Company website operated by D.O Green Solar Energy Limited, uses cookies and similar browser storage. Cookies are small pieces of information a website stores in your browser; local storage is a similar browser feature. Our Privacy Policy (opens in a new tab) explains how we handle personal information more generally.
Summary
| Name | Provider | Purpose | Duration | Category |
|---|---|---|---|---|
stlc-consent (local storage) | This website | Remembers your cookie choices | Used for 180 days, then you are asked again | Essential |
_ga | Google Analytics | Distinguishes one browser from another | 2 years (Google’s default) | Analytics |
_ga_JEZBYKYSNK | Google Analytics | Keeps the state of your current visit | 2 years (Google’s default) | Analytics |
fpestid (cookie or local storage) | ShareThis | ShareThis identifier set on this website’s domain | 13 months (as stated by ShareThis) | Marketing |
Analytics and Marketing items are set only after you allow that category. Durations for Google and ShareThis are those published by the providers in their documentation.
How consent works
When you first visit, a banner asks for your choice. Accept All allows Analytics and Marketing, Reject All keeps both off, and Customize lets you choose each category separately. Scrolling, closing the preferences panel or continuing to browse is not consent. Until you allow a category, its scripts are not loaded and its cookies are not set.
Your choice is stored only in this browser, for this website, and is not sent to us. If browser storage is unavailable or your choice cannot be saved, optional categories stay off. Analytics and Marketing tools run only on solarstreetlight.company itself, never on test or preview copies of the site.
Essential technologies
These are needed to deliver the website securely and to remember your privacy choices, so they cannot be switched off in the preferences panel. They include the stlc-consent record described above. The website is delivered through Cloudflare, which may set a strictly necessary security cookie in some circumstances, for example to help filter malicious traffic. See Cloudflare’s Privacy Policy (opens in a new tab).
Analytics: Google Analytics 4
With your consent, we use Google Analytics 4 to understand how the website is used, for example which pages are viewed, roughly where visitors come from and what type of device they use. This helps us improve the website. Google Analytics sets the _ga and _ga_JEZBYKYSNK cookies listed above on this website’s domain.
Advertising features stay off: Google’s advertising storage and personalisation signals remain denied even if you allow Marketing. If you have not allowed Analytics, the website also removes any Google Analytics cookies left by an earlier version of this website. Google processes this information under its Privacy Policy (opens in a new tab); see also how Google uses information from sites that use its services (opens in a new tab).
Marketing: ShareThis share buttons
With your consent, articles and some product and service pages show ShareThis buttons so you can share the page. ShareThis records page views and interactions, stores the fpestid identifier on this website’s domain, and may set its own cookies on sharethis.com (for example _stid, which ShareThis lists with a duration of 1 year).
ShareThis uses this information for its own purposes, including targeted advertising and audience research, and states that it sells or shares usage data and audience segments with other businesses. Its Privacy Policy (opens in a new tab) explains this in detail and offers an opt-out. Without Marketing consent, the share buttons and ShareThis’s script do not load.
Changing or withdrawing consent
You can change your choices at any time with Cookie Settings in the footer of every page, or with the button below.
- Withdrawing Analytics stops Google Analytics on this website, reloads the page and removes the Google Analytics cookies from this browser.
- Withdrawing Marketing removes the share buttons, reloads the page and removes
fpestidfrom this browser. Cookies on ShareThis’s own domain can be removed through your browser settings or the opt-out on ShareThis’s privacy page.
Withdrawal stops future collection. It does not delete information already sent to Google or ShareThis; see our Privacy Policy (opens in a new tab) for your rights.
Browser controls
Most browsers let you view, block and delete cookies and site data. Clearing this website’s data also removes your saved choice, so you will see the banner again. Your choice applies to one browser on one device and does not carry over to others.
Links to other services
The WhatsApp and call buttons open WhatsApp or your phone’s calling service. They are links, not embedded tools, and do not set cookies on this website. Once you follow them, WhatsApp’s Privacy Policy (opens in a new tab) or your phone provider’s terms apply.
Changes and contact
If we add or change a tool that needs consent, we will update this policy and ask for your choice again. For questions, call or send a WhatsApp message to +234 70 8892 1215.
