This Privacy Policy describes the information we process to allow Station A to serve our users. It also covers the choices you, the user, have with regards to that information. In this policy, "us" and "our" refer to Station A. "You" and "your" refer to the user.
We collect contact information and other personal information from you so that we can reach out to you with opportunities to deploy clean energy solutions, alert you to new developments, and associate you with your organization. This information includes:
We collect the information that you input to the platform so that we can personalize your experience. This includes:
We track your usage of the platform, for billing purposes and to inform our product development. This includes:
We collect your contact information either when you directly input it to the Platform or from your third-party identity provider. We collect your IP address, browser model, and operating system automatically when you access our site. The rest of the information you input to the site through the flow of using the product.
Providers, we use the information you provide us to personalize your experience on the platform.
Buyers, we use the information you provide us by going through the user flow in order to match you with companies that provide clean energy solutions, which requires us to share your organization and some of your preferences with those companies. We will ask your permission before sharing your name, email address, and/or phone number.
For both groups of users, we use your data as the basis of your account on the Station A platform. As we add more features and services, you will have access to your account information through the platform. You will eventually be able to view, update, and delete this information. Today, if you wish to perform any of these actions, please contact us directly.
Station A may use your email address, organization, account type, and name to alert you to new Station A features. We are expressly allowed to send you these types of electronic communications, though we will always strive to make them relevant, interesting, infrequent, and brief. We may also use your information in aggregate for internal analyses of the geographic and industry landscape of our user base.
Station A may use your data to evaluate and improve internal algorithms. For example, expressed interests in products may one day serve as training data for a model that predicts customer appetite for different clean energy solutions. We may use data that you provide to train estimation models, which produce results that other users can see.
Station A uses your IP address, browser model, and operating system in order to learn how to optimize our products to our users and for our own security monitoring, to protect ourselves from malicious actors.
Station A takes security of data very seriously. We store your personal information in a cloud-hosted database that is only accessible from the Station A infrastructure. This database is protected using industry-standard encryption-at-rest technologies, including AES256, and all data is transmitted to our servers securely using SSL/TLS certificates.
Providers, we do not currently have any features through which we will expose any of your information to other users. We may introduce features that make your presence on the platform known in the future, in which case we will notify you of that change.
Buyers, as stated above, we share your business/organization name, any addresses you express interest in, and any products that you express interest in with third party clean energy companies so that they can provide clean energy product offerings to you. We will ask your permission to connect you with these companies, and may share your name, email address, and/or phone number with them if you instruct us to.
We use cookies to track your session so that your data will persist if you refresh the page or navigate away and come back.
Given that the energy system is constantly changing, and new products are continually being brought to market, clean energy opportunities may arise for you at some point in the future. As such, Station A retains user data in perpetuity until you ask that Station A delete it.
If we choose to modify this policy, we’ll notify you beforehand and give you the opportunity to review the revised policy before deciding whether to opt into it or not.
You can email service@stationa.com to:
You can expect us to carry out any of these actions that you request in a timely manner.
Station A takes data privacy very seriously. We also aspire to be the global platform for clean energy development, which includes expanding to serve European energy markets. For both of these reasons, we choose to comply with the European Union’s General Data Protection Regulation (“GDPR”). Below, we address some of the specific issues required by GDPR.
Station A uses customer data, but a customer has the full legal right to control how that data is used and to instruct Station A to delete their data.
Any requests relating to data stored by Station A can be sent to service@stationa.com.
Wherever in the world you use Station A, your data will be transferred to, stored in, and processed in the United States. We do not currently transfer data outside of the United States, but we reserve the right to transfer, store, and process information outside of the United States in the future.
We process your information under option (a) of Clause 1, Article 6 of the GDPR:
The data subject has given consent to the processing of his or her personal data for one or more specific purposes;
548 Market Street
