The purpose and usage of information collected

 

Island Solar Group will not use your personal information for any purpose you would not reasonably expect us to.

If you provide us with your postal address, you may receive periodic mailings from us with information on new products and services or upcoming events. These offers may be based on information you have provided and on your history with us as a customer.

For operational purposes, Island Solar Group may divulge your personal details to a third party when the administration and processing of a marketing program is outsourced to a third party. (Examples include - when mailing houses are used, when an outside agency uses customer data provided or when a credit check is required on application).
