- What we collect
- Your contact details, address, energy use, the appliances you want to back up, photos of your electrical panel and property, and any utility bills you upload.
- Why
- To build your design-ready report and, only if you agree, share it with one solar distributor that serves your area so they can design and quote your system. We don't sell your information or use it for unrelated marketing.
- Account numbers
- We don't keep your utility account number. When we read your bills automatically, account numbers are removed from anything we store. The original file is kept private and only DesignReady Solar's team can open it.
- Automated reading
- We use an AI service to read usage from bills and ratings from panel photos. You'll see what it read and can correct it before submitting.
- Who can see it
- The DesignReady Solar team, the one distributor you're matched with, and the service providers that host this form. Your files are never public.
- When you choose an option
- Your name, address and the parts list are sent to the distributor's own quoting system so they can prepare your order. If you ask us to call you, your phone number goes to their phone system.
- Store account (optional)
- When you choose an option you can ask for a store account so you can check out online. Only if you tick that box, your name, email, phone and address are used to create it in their online store; that account is then managed under their store's own privacy policy.
- Your choices
- You can ask us to delete everything at any time using the "Request deletion" link in any email we send you. Unfinished intakes are deleted automatically after 90 days. Deleting your intake doesn't close a store account you asked for or remove a quote already sent to the distributor's quoting system — ask them to delete those.
