Privacy Policy

Commitment to Your Privacy At Peninsula South East Solar, we value your privacy and are committed to protecting your personal information. This Privacy Policy outlines how we collect, use, store, and disclose your data in accordance with the Australian Privacy Principles (APPs) under the Privacy Act 1988 (Cth).

1. Information We Collect & Why We Collect It

Contact Forms

When you submit an enquiry through our “Let’s Connect” form, we collect the data shown in the form (such as your name, email, phone number, and address) so we can design and quote your system. We also collect the visitor’s IP address and browser user agent string to assist with automated spam detection.

Cookies

If you submit an enquiry or interact with our site, we use temporary cookies for your convenience so that your browser can remember your details for future communication.

  • If you visit our administrative login page, a temporary cookie is set to determine if your browser accepts cookies; this contains no personal data and is discarded when you close your browser.
  • Standard analytics cookies may also be used to monitor website performance and traffic patterns to improve your browsing experience.

Embedded Content from Other Websites

Pages on this site may include embedded content (such as map layouts, videos, or manufacturer documentation). Embedded content from other websites behaves in the exact same way as if the visitor has visited the other website directly. These third-party websites may collect data about you, use cookies, embed additional third-party tracking, and monitor your interaction with that embedded content, especially if you have an account and are logged in to that website.

2. How We Handle and Share Your Data

Project Delivery & Compliance Obligations

We do not sell your data. We only disclose your personal property, energy, and contact data to trusted third parties strictly necessary to deliver your system and fulfill regulatory requirements, including:

  • Relevant electricity distributors for processing Grid Connection Approvals.
  • Government bodies or clearinghouses required for STC creation and solar rebate assignments.
  • Our accredited installers, technicians, or sub-contractors directly assigned to your project.
  • Equipment manufacturers if we are actively acting as your liaison to process a component warranty claim.

Data Retention

If you submit a contact enquiry, the message and its metadata are retained securely so we can seamlessly reference your project history, address site diagnostics, and manage your ongoing system warranties.

3. What Rights You Have Over Your Data

If you have interacted with this site or submitted an enquiry, you can request to receive an exported file of the personal data we hold about you, including any data you have provided to us.

You can also request that we erase any personal data we hold about you. This does not include any data we are obliged to keep for administrative, legal, electrical safety reporting, or business security purposes.
