Privacy Policy

1. Information We Collect

To determine your roof's eligibility for the 0-Cent PPA solar program and complete Pepco compliance assessments, we collect several categories of information directly from you when you submit our questionnaire:

• Contact Details: Full name, telephone number, and email address to coordinate site assessments and eligibility status notifications.
• Property Details: Full street address, zip code, and roof classification (e.g., flat roof, rowhouse, pitched roof) to run satellite shade mapping and historical zoning checks.
• Utility & Solar Metrics: Your estimated average monthly electricity expenses (Pepco billing range) and whether you own the property, which are regulatory gating criteria for PPA eligibility.
• Technical Log Data: Standard internet protocol (IP) addresses, browser type, referring/exit pages, and timestamps recorded for site security and verification purposes.

2. How We Use Your Information

We use the data gathered to facilitate the DC solar PPA evaluation process. Specific uses include:

• Performing remote shading analysis and structural feasibility reviews of your roof.
• Verifying PPA suitability under the District's Clean Energy DC Omnibus Amendment Act regulations.
• Connecting you with qualified, NABCEP-certified solar developers and PPA investors who service the Washington, DC region.
• Contacting you by phone, SMS, or email regarding the status of your solar registry application.
• Preventing fraudulent registry submissions and maintaining high system security.

3. Information Sharing & Third-Party Disclosure

We share your information strictly with partners required to execute the solar installation evaluation:

• Matched PPA Installers/Investors: If your property meets the initial baseline criteria, we securely share your contact and property data with our partner installers/investors so they can prepare precise engineering quotes, coordinate Pepco net-metering applications, and conduct on-site evaluations.
• Regulatory & Compliance Bodies: When legally required to verify legislative compliance under District energy mandates, we may disclose information to federal or District authorities.
• No Marketing Transfers: We do not transfer or sell your personal details to credit brokers, telemarketers, or unrelated advertising agencies.

4. Data Security & Storage Integrity

Your data security is critical to our civic trust model. We implement technical and administrative safeguards to protect your submissions:

All data transmitted through our web portal is encrypted using Secure Socket Layer (SSL) protocols. Information is stored in access-restricted databases with active security auditing. While we implement rigorous industry standards, no internet transmission method or database storage can be guaranteed as 100% secure.
