Privacy Policy

This Privacy Policy explains how Well Water Guide handles ordinary website information, cookies, advertising technologies, analytics-style data, and links to other websites.

Last updated: August 16, 2026

This Privacy Policy explains how Well Water Guide handles information when you use wellwater.lifestuff.net. The site is an educational publication of WRS Web Solutions Inc. It does not offer user accounts and its well-record and planning tools are designed to run in the visitor's browser rather than submit private-well records to the publisher.

Information the site may receive automatically

Like most websites, the web server and service providers may receive technical information when a page is requested. This can include an IP address, date and time, requested URL, referrer, browser or device information, response status, and similar security or diagnostic log data. Hosting, caching, anti-abuse, and security providers may process this information as part of operating the site.

Information you enter into site tools

The interactive well-record builder, test planner, and water-change checker are intended to work in your browser. The site does not intentionally send the information you type into those tools to a Well Water Guide database. A visitor who prints or saves a result controls the resulting local file or printout. Do not enter unnecessary sensitive personal, medical, financial, legal, or identity information into site tools or contact systems.

Cookies and similar technologies

The site and third-party services may use cookies, browser storage, tags, pixels, web beacons, IP addresses, or similar technologies for ordinary site operation, security, fraud prevention, measurement, advertising, frequency capping, and performance. You can control or delete many cookies through your browser or device settings, although blocking some technologies can affect site or advertising functions.

Google AdSense and third-party advertising

Well Water Guide may display advertising through Google AdSense. Third-party vendors, including Google, may place or read cookies in a visitor's browser or use web beacons, IP addresses, and similar technologies as a result of ad serving on this site.

Google and its advertising partners may use advertising cookies so ads can be served based on a visitor's prior visits to this site and/or other sites on the Internet. Depending on the visitor's region, consent choices, browser settings, and Google's systems, ads may be personalized using previously collected or historical information, or non-personalized using contextual and more limited information. Non-personalized ads can still use cookies or similar technologies for purposes such as frequency capping, aggregated reporting, security, and fraud prevention.

Visitors can learn about or manage Google advertising choices through Google Ads Settings. Information about how Google uses information from sites or apps that use Google services is available at Google's partner-sites information page. Other advertising vendors may provide their own opt-out or preference controls.

Consent in the EEA, United Kingdom, and Switzerland

Where required, a Google-certified consent management platform (CMP) may be used to request and record choices about cookies, local storage, personal data, and advertising for visitors in the European Economic Area, the United Kingdom, and Switzerland. The consent message or privacy-options interface presented to an eligible visitor should be used to manage those choices. Ad availability and personalization can differ depending on the choices made.

Analytics and measurement

The site may use ordinary server statistics or third-party measurement associated with advertising and site operation. Any future analytics service that materially changes the data practices described here should be reflected in an updated version of this policy.

External links

Guides link to government agencies, public-health organizations, standards bodies, laboratories, and other external resources. Once you follow an external link, the other website's privacy practices, cookies, security, and terms apply. Well Water Guide does not control those external sites.

Contact and support systems

The site's contact page sends visitors to the WRS Web Solutions Inc. help-desk system for limited site-related matters such as corrections, legal/privacy questions, copyright, accessibility, or editorial issues. Information submitted through that separate system is processed according to the policies and operational needs of that system.

Children's privacy

The site provides general information about private wells and rural property. It is not designed to collect personal information from children. If a parent or guardian believes that a child submitted personal information through a site-related contact channel, they may use the contact page to request review.

Data security and retention

Reasonable technical and administrative measures may be used to protect the website and service logs, but no Internet system can guarantee absolute security. Routine server, security, and support records may be retained for periods reasonably needed for operation, troubleshooting, abuse prevention, legal obligations, or business records, then deleted or rotated according to provider and operational practices.

Changes to this policy

This policy may be updated when the site, advertising services, consent systems, or applicable requirements change. The revision date at the top of the page identifies the current posted version.
