We are committed to the protection of personal privacy and have adopted a policy to protect information about individuals.

This policy describes the type of information we collect and hold, how we use that information, how that information may be disclosed, the security of that information, how you can access and correct any such information and other relevant details concerning your privacy.

  1. COLLECTION METHODS OF PERSONAL INFORMATION

Solar System Buyers

We may collect personal information from you if you buy a solar or battery system from us, take steps to do so or choose to subscribe for any alerts, newsletters and similar content.

This may include your contact details and other personal information required for inclusion in a contract of sale. Before we can provide you with a proposal, quote or contract of sale we will ask you for and record your name, phone number, email address and a copy of a recent electricity bill. We require this to be able to provide you with the best possible advice about the solar system that works best for you.

If you would prefer not to provide your personal information, then we may provide you with a solar proposal that in our experience would likely be best suited to your situation or refuse to provide you with a solar proposal or quote.
