We use systems, policies and procedures to maintain the accuracy of customer information and to protect it from loss, misuse, or alteration.

How We Use Personal Information

Personal information about our customers or former customers will only be disclosed as permitted or required by law. Information that has been collected is securely maintained in your file in our records. We use personal information to meet your requests for solar panel system financing, for solar panel system products and services, and to comply with legal requirements. In striving to serve you, we sometimes share customer information with others so they may help us by providing services to us or by providing services on our behalf or jointly with us to you. We do not sell personal information about you to unrelated companies for their independent use.

Domain Name and IP Address

We collect the domain names and IP addresses of our visitors for statistical purposes, in order to measure use, to improve the content or responsiveness of our site or to customize the content or layout of the site for the individual visitor. We do not disclose this information to third parties. We may also aggregate information relating to our visitors’ traffic patterns from the data that we collect and retain concerning the IP addresses and domain names of our visitors, and we may divulge such aggregate information about our users with third parties such as our business partners, distributors, and service and support providers.

E-mail Address

You should know that e-mail is not necessarily secure against all forms of interception. If your communication includes sensitive information about you and you would prefer not to transmit this information in this fashion, please contact us by mail or telephone rather than e-mail.

We collect only those e-mail addresses that are volunteered by the visitor, through e-mail messages addressed to our company or its employees, or through visitor responses via the “contact us” portion of the site, e-mail marketing destination web pages and public events.

We use the lists of e-mail addresses for marketing purposes and to inform those interested in our products about events, products, services or other items of interest. We may also use the lists of e-mail addresses volunteered by our visitors for brochures and other written materials.

You may opt-out of receiving the promotional or marketing e-mails at any time by following the un-subscribe link at the bottom of such email.

This opt-out procedure will not be available for e-mails that are necessary to provide confirmation of a completed transaction (such as a purchase, service request or change in the visitor’s user profile) or for e-mails that confirm a visitor’s status as a registered user of the ROOF SPACE RENTAL GROUP customer portal.

Other Personal Information

We may use a mailing address or phone number that a visitor provides for a variety of ROOF SPACE RENTAL GROUP related reasons. We may send periodic mailings to visitors or make telephone calls to inform those visitors who have provided a mailing address or telephone number of new products, services or events.

If you do not wish to receive such calls or mailings, you may request to be removed from the contact list by contacting ROOF SPACE RENTAL GROUP at contact@roofspacerental.com

In such cases, your name and delivery address are never shared by these third parties. ROOF SPACE RENTAL GROUP may access your information in the event of a dispute, in response to legal process or law enforcement inquiries, abuse of our website, or violation of our Terms of Use Policy.
