Citizens for Responsible Solar has created this privacy statement in order to demonstrate our firm commitment to protecting the privacy of our, and our clients’, website visitors and online community participants. The following discloses our information gathering and dissemination practices for websites hosted by Citizens for Responsible Solar (the “website”). If you choose not to consent to this Privacy Statement, you may not use this website. Please re-read our privacy policy periodically since the policy may be revised at any time, with or without notice, at the sole discretion of Citizens for Responsible Solar.

​

1. How We Use Collected Information

Registration

If you choose to register on the “contact page” or “newsletter” of our website, our registration forms require you to give us certain information including your name, address, zip/postal code, phone number and email address. Personally identifying information is used to contact you.

 

Voluntary Contact

If you send us information voluntarily, such as through personal correspondence, or email, we may collect such information. Please also note that information you volunteer in public areas, such as chat rooms and bulletin boards, is not protected information, and anyone could potentially collect and use such information in ways we cannot control.

 

Email Communications

From time to time, Citizens for Responsible Solar may contact you via email for the purpose of providing announcements, alerts, confirmations, surveys, and/or other general communication. In order to improve our Services, we may receive a notification when you open an email from Citizens for Responsible Solar or click on a link therein.

 

If you would like to stop receiving email communications from Citizens for Responsible Solar, you may opt out of such communications by clicking on the unsubscribe link at the bottom of email communication and filling in the form to opt out of future email communications.

Cookies

We use cookies on certain pages of our websites. Cookies are small text files stored on your hard drive, not on our websites. A cookie is not a program and does not itself have the ability to automatically collect personal information about you. A cookie can store certain information that identifies your browser to our servers in order to make the websites operate more smoothly. For example, we leverage Google Analytics. Google Analytics is a web analytics tool used to understand how our users interact with our website and uses cookies to track your interactions with and use of our website. Google Analytics collects, processes, and creates reports about website trends without identifying individual users. For more information visit Google’s document here.

2. Linked Websites

For your convenience, our website contains links to other sites. Please be aware that Citizens for Responsible Solar are not responsible for the privacy practices or content of such other websites, which may differ significantly from our own. We encourage our users to be aware when they leave our website and to read the privacy statements of each and every web site that collects personally identifiable information. This privacy statement applies solely to information collected by our website.

​

3. Security

On the donate page where user credit card information is entered, we utilize the third-party tool, Anedot, so Citizen for Responsible Solar does not collect your financial information. You can find Anedot’s Terms of Use here and Anedot’s Privacy Policy here. Notwithstanding these efforts, we caution you that “perfect security” does not exist on the Internet.

​

4. A Special Note About Children

This website is a general audience site and is not directed to or intended for use by children under the age of 13. Citizens for Responsible Solar does not knowingly collect personally identifiable information from children under the age of 13. If you are under the age of 13, you must ask your parent or guardian for permission to use this website. 

​

If a child under the age of 13 has provided personal information in violation of the website access restrictions, a parent or guardian of that child must contact us immediately at info@citizensforresponsiblesolar.com so we can promptly remove such information from our records.
