Privacy policy

Scottish Energy Efficiency is committed to protecting and respecting your privacy. This policy explains how we collect, use and protect your personal data when you use this website (https://interestfree.solar) and when you enquire about our solar PV and battery storage services for farms and rural businesses in Scotland.

Who we are

Scottish Energy Efficiency, Unit 3 Prospect III, Prospect Business Centre, Dundee, DD2 1TY. We arrange no-obligation surveys and quotes for paid solar installations, which are carried out by our MCS-certified partner. You can contact us at 0141 230 0198 or info@scottishenergyefficiency.co.uk.

What data we collect

When you submit a lead form on this website, we collect the following information:

• Name — so we know who to ask for when we contact you.
• Phone number — so we can call you to arrange a survey.
• Email address — so we can send you information and your quote.
• Farm postcode — so we can confirm we cover your area and plan the survey.
• Area of interest — rooftop solar, ground-mounted solar, battery storage, or a combination.
• Message — any additional information you choose to share about your farm.
• Page URL — the page on this site from which you submitted the form.

We also collect the website address you submitted from (source site: interestfree.solar) to help us manage enquiries. We do not collect sensitive personal data through this website.

How we use your data

We use your personal data to:

• Contact you about your enquiry and arrange a no-obligation survey.
• Provide you with a quote for solar PV and battery storage.
• Discuss interest-free finance options, if you are interested.
• Respond to any questions you ask us.

We do not use your data for marketing purposes unrelated to your enquiry. We do not sell or rent your personal data to third parties.

Legal basis for processing

We process your personal data on the basis of your consent, which you give when you submit the lead form and tick the consent checkbox. You can withdraw your consent at any time by contacting us at info@scottishenergyefficiency.co.uk or 0141 230 0198.

How long we keep your data

We retain your personal data for as long as is necessary to fulfil the purposes described above, and in line with legal and regulatory requirements. If you ask us not to contact you, we will stop using your data for that purpose.

Sharing your data

We may share your data with our MCS-certified installation partner for the purpose of arranging and carrying out your survey and installation. We may also share your data with service providers who help us manage enquiries (such as the form delivery service we use). We do not share your data with any other third parties without your consent, unless required by law.
