Privacy Policy

Solar Energy Authority, LLC. (Solar Energy Authority) owns and operates each website that displays this Privacy Notice (each, a “Site”), including but not limited to www.homesolarfreedom.com, www.solarenergyauthority.com, www.prosolarsavings.com, http://freedomsolarhome.com.

Your privacy is important to us. We created this Privacy Notice to explain how we collect, use, and share the information that we collect from and about you.

Data Collected

Automatically Collected Information: We collect data that your device provides when you interact with the Site or sites owned by third-parties with whom we have contractual relationships (“Media Partners”). In most cases, when you come to the Site, we will automatically gather or receive technical data which may include browser type, referrer URL, date and time of your visit, IP address, MAC address, device type, screen resolution, and OS version (“Technical Data”). Technical Data also includes “Cookie and Similar Data” described below.

Other Data You Provide: We collect additional data if you choose to engage with the Site or certain sites owned by our Media Partners. We refer to the information you choose to provide as “Provided Information.” This includes contact information that you choose to provide to us or our Media Partners (e.g., name, address, email address, telephone number) about yourself or others. For example, if you click on our advertisement located on a Media Partner’s site, that Media Partner may pass your contact information to us. Or, if you inquire about products and services, the Provided Information you may choose to disclose may also include age, gender, homeowner status, utility provider, your monthly utility bill, or any other information the Site collects that is personally identifiable information that is about you but individually does not identify you.

Third Party Data: In some cases, we may combine Technical Data and any Provided Information with Third Party Data. “Third Party Data” includes information that we receive from third parties such as credit reporting agencies and Partners (defined below). Third Party Data may also include information we use to confirm, supplement, or validate the data you provide. Finally, our Advertising Partners may also provide us with information about your interaction with their advertised products and services (e.g., whether you purchase their products or services). We may combine the Technical Data, Provided Information and Third Party Data. Please note, we will only obtain credit reporting information with your consent and will not retain any Social Security number you provide.

Cookie and Similar Data: When you use this Site, we may use a “cookie” or other tracking technology to recognize you or your device. These technologies act as unique identifiers and allow us to tailor this Site to your specified interests and track your activity on this Site and across devices that you use. We may use this information to deliver offers and advertisements that we believe are relevant to your interests.

We have contractual relationships with advertisers, advertising agencies and other intermediaries that have advertisers as clients (collectively, “Advertising Partners”). Our Media Partners and Advertising Partners (collectively, “Partners”) may also utilize third-party cookies and other tracking technologies like clear pixel GIFs (i.e., web beacons) to identify you. We and our Partners may use these technologies to measure responses to emails, interactions with advertisements, page views on this Site and our Partners’ websites and other similar metrics. Among other things, we use these technologies to enhance this Site, to make this Site more relevant to you, and to measure the effectiveness of our email and other advertising campaigns and those of our Partners.

Tracking Options and California Do Not Track Disclosures: Certain Sites require cookies to function efficiently. We may use cookies to deliver advertising we believe is relevant to you and to link data collected across other devices you use. You can adjust your settings to limit tracking or decline cookies, but, as a result, you may not be able to use certain features of this Site or take full advantage of all of our offerings. Please refer to your device or browser settings for more information on how to delete or decline cookies and control your tracking preferences. This Site does not respond to Do Not Track signals from most browsers.

This may include information on products and services in different industries such as the: Finance industry; Home improvement industry; Insurance industry; Travel industry; Retail industry; Gambling industry; Health & Wellness industry; Online Gaming industry; Consumer Electronics industry; Consumer Sanitary Products industry; and Cleaning Products industry. We generally do this using Technical Data and Provided Information, but in certain cases we may also use Third Party Data.

For example, we may have a Partner who is only licensed in certain states. We may use Technical Data or Provided Information to determine if you are a resident of one of those states. We refer to Advertising Partner requirements generally as “segmentation” and the alignment of consumer data and segments as “matching.”
