This Privacy Policy does not apply to third-party websites, products or services, even if they link to our Sites. We recommend you review the privacy practices of those third parties before connecting accessing third party websites and sharing any personal information.

We also encourage you to review our Terms of Use and California Privacy Notice, to understand how your personal information will be treated as you make full use of our Sites. Unless otherwise defined in this Privacy Policy, capitalized terms used in this Privacy Policy have the same meanings as in our Terms of Use.

1. Collection of Personal Information

For purposes of this Privacy Policy, “personal information” means any information that relates to an identified or identifiable individual. The personal information we collect through our Sites will be apparent by the context of the page, and may include but is not limited to the following types of information.

a. Personal information you provide to us

We may collect the following personal information about you that you choose to provide us when you use our Sites:

Contact information. When you fill out an online webform with Uni Solar Wave, you may be asked to provide your first and last name, email address, residential address, zip code, and phone number.
Commercial information. You may also be asked to provide various information related to your home and home energy usage, such as your utility provider, utility and average monthly electric bill, and the amount of solar exposure on your place of residence.

b. Information that we automatically collect

Our Sites use cookies and other tracking technologies such as web beacons, embedded scripts, and tags (“Cookies”), which collect information from you automatically as your use our Sites, including:

Browser and device data, such as IP address, device identifier, device type, operating system and Internet browser type, screen resolution, operating system name and version, device manufacturer and model, language, plug-ins, add-ons, and the language version of the Sites you are visiting; and
Usage data, such as geolocation data, browsing history, time spent on the Sites, pages visited, links clicked, language preferences, patterns of use, and the pages that led or referred you to our Site.

We also collect information about your online activities on websites and connected devices over time and across third-party websites, devices, apps, and other online features and services. For example, some of our community websites may use Google Analytics on our Sites to help us analyze your use of our Sites and diagnose technical issues. As another example, we may utilize cookies and other third party trackers that collect basic tracking information about users that click on links to our Promotions Providers’ websites from our Site.

Our website utilizes tracking technologies to collect and record your activities and movements across our websites throughout your browsing session, including to track button clicks, mouse movements, scrolling, resizing, touches, keystrokes, data entered, device information and orientation, browser visual elements, and screen size (“Session Data”), for purposes of our own internal analytics and improving our products, services, and user experience. Such tracking may include recorded sessions, which we may play back for these purposes. We may share Session Data with our third party analytics or service providers, which may change from time-to-time, for these purposes, who will use the Session Data solely on our behalf and for our benefit.

Please review our Cookie Policy below for more information about our use of these technologies.

3. Sharing of Personal Information

We may share your personal information with the following categories of third parties:

Our affiliates. We may share personal information with our affiliates to provide our Sites and Services and for internal administrative purposes.
Product/Service providers. We share personal information with our product/service providers, such as analytics, advertising, marketing, customer and technical support, and other services. These third parties have access to your personal information only to perform these tasks and are obligated not to disclose or use the information for any other purpose.
Third-Parties. We share personal information, either directly or through intermediary agents and/or entities (including, lead aggregators and vendors to such businesses), with one or more third-party entities, such as solar and/or home improvement product/service providers, marketers of such products/services, and/or affiliate companies (collectively, including intermediaries, “Third-Parties”). For example, we may share personal information with Third-Parties for their direct marketing purposes. We may also share personal information with Third-Parties at a point in time after it is initially collected.
Promotions Providers. In addition to Third-Parties, our Sites may also present offers for promotions for other products and services that may be of interest to you (“Promotions Providers”). We only share limited web tracking data with Promotions Providers if you choose to click on the hyperlinks we provide for their offers, which will take you to the Promotions Provider’s website.
Third-party platform advertising. We may share your information with third-party platform providers who assist us in serving advertising regarding the Sites and Services to others who may be interested. We also partner with third parties (such as Facebook and Google) who use Cookies to serve interest-based advertising and content on their respective third-party platforms that may be based on your preferences, location and/or interests.
Affiliate and business transfer. If Uni Solar Wave is involved in a merger, acquisition or asset sale, your personal information may be transferred. We will provide notice before your personal information is transferred and becomes subject to a different privacy policy.
Compliance and harm prevention. We may share personal information as we believe necessary (i) to comply with applicable law, rules and regulations; (ii) to enforce our contractual rights; (iii) to investigate possible wrongdoing in connection with the Site and Services; (iv) to protect and defend the rights, privacy, safety and property of Uni Solar Wave, you or others; and (v) to respond to requests from courts, law enforcement agencies, regulatory agencies, and other public and government authorities.

The selection of a Third-Party to acquire your personal information may be determined by a comparison with available products/services, including solar and/or home improvement-related products/services. The position of each potential purchaser may also be determined primarily by the price the purchaser is willing to pay for the information (e.g., the higher the price, the better the purchaser’s position).

We may create aggregated, anonymous or de-identified data from personal information by removing data components that make the data personally identifiable to you or through obfuscation or other means. Our use of aggregated, anonymized and de-identified data is not subject to this Privacy Policy.

Agreement to Arbitrate

(a) Uni Solar Wave and you agree to arbitrate any and all disputes and claims between us arising out of or relating to these Terms of Use, our Privacy Policy, or use of the sites, via the sites or through a mobile application, except any disputes or claims which under governing law are not subject to arbitration, to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law. These terms to arbitrate are intended to be broadly interpreted and to make all disputes and claims between us subject to arbitration to the fullest extent permitted by law. However, any dispute you or we may have relating to copyrights or other intellectual property shall not be governed by this agreement to arbitrate. For the avoidance of doubt, this means that any claims you or we may have relating to intellectual property rights against the other, including seeking injunctive and other equitable relief, may be brought in a court of competent jurisdiction.

This agreement to arbitrate otherwise includes, but is not limited to claims based in contract, tort, warranty, statute, fraud, misrepresentation, or any other legal theory; claims that arose before this or any prior Terms of Use (including, but not limited to, claims relating to advertising); claims that are currently the subject of purported class action litigation in which you are not a member of a certified class; claims relating to our websites; claims arising out of or relating to the Telephone Consumer Protection Act; claims relating to your data privacy or information security; and claims that may arise after the termination of these Terms of Use.

For purposes of this arbitration provision, references to “ Uni Solar Wave ,” “you,” and “us” shall include our respective parent entities, subsidiaries, affiliates, agents, employees, predecessors in interest, successors, and assigns, websites of the foregoing, as well as all authorized or unauthorized users or beneficiaries of services, products or information provided or made available under this or prior agreements between us relating to or arising from any aspect of your use or access of the sites.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, either party may bring an individual action in small claims court. You agree that, by entering into these Terms of Use, including this agreement to arbitrate, you and Uni Solar Wave are each waiving the right to a trial by jury or to participate in a class or representative action to the maximum extent permitted by law. These Terms evidence a transaction in interstate commerce, and thus the Federal Arbitration Act governs the interpretation and enforcement of this arbitration provision. This arbitration provision shall survive termination of these Terms of Use or your relationship with Uni Solar Wave for any reason.

(b) A party who intends to seek arbitration must first send to the other, by certified mail, a written Notice of Dispute (“Dispute Notice”). The Notice to Uni Solar Wave should be addressed to the following address (“Dispute Notice Address”):

Uni Solar Wave

1321 North Causeway Boulevard

Mandeville, 70471, LA

Attention: Legal Department

The Dispute Notice must describe the nature and basis of the claim or dispute and set forth the specific relief you seek from Uni Solar Wave (“Demand”). If Uni Solar Wave and you do not reach an agreement to resolve the claim within 30 days after the Dispute Notice is received, you or Uni Solar Wave may commence an arbitration proceeding.

(c) After Uni Solar Wave receives notice at the Dispute Notice Address that you have commenced arbitration, it will promptly reimburse you for your payment of the filing fee. The arbitration will be governed by the Consumer Arbitration Rules (“AAA Rules”) of the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”), as modified by these Terms Of Use, and will be administered by the AAA. The AAA Rules are available online at www.adr.org, by calling the AAA at 1-800-778-7879, or by writing to the Notice Address. The AAA Rules may change from time to time, and you should review them periodically.

All issues are for the arbitrator to decide, including the scope and enforceability of this arbitration provision as well as other terms and conditions of these Terms of Use, and the arbitrator shall have exclusive authority to resolve any such dispute relating to the scope and enforceability of this arbitration provision or any other term of these Terms of Use, including, but not limited to any claim that all or any part of this arbitration provision or these Terms of Use are void or voidable. However, if putative class or representative claims are initially brought by either party in a court of law, and a motion to compel arbitration is brought by any party, then the court shall decide whether these Terms of Use permit class or representative proceeding. For the avoidance of doubt, the court and arbitrator shall be bound by these Terms of Use, including with regard to the class and representative waiver provision. In any arbitration, the arbitrator shall follow the applicable law. The arbitrator shall not have the power to commit manifest errors of law or legal reasoning, and any award rendered by the arbitrator that employs a manifest error of law or legal reasoning may be vacated or corrected by a court of competent jurisdiction for any such error.

Unless Uni Solar Wave and you agree otherwise, any arbitration will be governed by the substantive laws of your state, and hearings will take place in the county (or parish) of your permanent residence. Case management and other hearings shall be heard via telephone unless agreed to otherwise. Except as otherwise provided for herein, Uni Solar Wave will pay all AAA filing, administration, and arbitrator fees for any arbitration initiated in accordance with the notice requirements above. If, however, the arbitrator finds that either the substance of your claim or the relief sought in the Demand is frivolous or brought for an improper purpose (as measured by the standards set forth in Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 11(b)), then the payment of all such fees will be governed by the AAA Rules. In such case, you agree to reimburse Uni Solar Wave for all monies previously disbursed by it that are otherwise your obligation to pay under the AAA Rules.

(d) Discovery and/or the exchange of non-privileged information relevant to the dispute will be governed by the AAA Rules.

(e) YOU AND Uni Solar Wave AGREE THAT EACH MAY BRING CLAIMS AGAINST THE OTHER ONLY IN YOUR OR ITS INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY, AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS OR REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW. If this specific subparagraph (e) is found to be unenforceable in its entirety, then the entirety of this arbitration provision shall be null and void. However, if only a portion of this subparagraph (e) is found to be unenforceable, then the unenforceable portion of the provision shall be stricken, and the remainder of subparagraph (e) enforced. Any claims or causes of action seeking relief not subject to individual arbitration under applicable law shall be stayed in a court of competent jurisdiction pending completion of individual arbitration to the maximum extent permitted by law.

(f) Notwithstanding any provision in these Terms of Use to the contrary, we agree that if Uni Solar Wave makes any change to this arbitration provision (other than a change to the Dispute Notice Address) after your enrollment in a service or program or your use of the Uni Solar Wave Sites, you may reject any such change and require Uni Solar Wave to adhere to the language in this arbitration provision as written at the time you initially requested or received any services from us if a dispute between us arises, by providing Notice to Uni Solar Wave at the Dispute Notice Address in subsection (b) above.
