Privacy Policy
Effective [Month Day, Year] · Last updated [Month Day, Year]
Who we are
Telos Electric Company (“Telos,” “we,” “us”) provides capital for distributed energy. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use and share information when you visit [domain] (the “Site”) or contact us through it. It does not cover information handled under separate agreements with our partners.
Information we collect
Information you provide. When you use the contact form, we collect your role, the program or market you are interested in, and your work email address. If you email us directly, we collect your email address and anything you choose to include in your message.
Information collected automatically. When you visit the Site, our website host, Webflow, receives standard technical information, such as your IP address, browser type, device type, pages requested, referring page and the date and time of your visit. Subject to your cookie choices, we also use Google Analytics to understand how visitors use the Site, including pages viewed, time on page, device and browser details, and approximate location derived from your IP address. Google Analytics collects this information using cookies.
[Build note: the Site loads fonts and scripts from third party hosts, which receive visitor IP addresses. Self hosting these in Webflow removes them from this disclosure. Remove this note before publish.]
How we use information
We use the information we collect to:
- Respond to your inquiry and follow up about a potential partnership
- Operate, maintain and secure the Site
- Understand how the Site is used and improve it
- Comply with legal obligations and protect our rights
We do not use information collected through the Site to make automated decisions about financing.
How we share information
We do not sell your personal information, and we do not share it for cross context behavioral advertising. We share information only:
- With service providers that help us run the Site and respond to inquiries: Webflow, which hosts the Site and processes contact form submissions; Google, which provides Google Analytics; CookieYes, which manages cookie consent; and our email provider. Each is bound by terms that limit its use of the information.
- When required by law, legal process or to protect the rights, safety or property of Telos or others
- In connection with a merger, financing, acquisition or sale of all or part of our business
- With your consent
Cookies and similar technologies
The Site uses cookies and similar technologies in two ways. Necessary cookies, set by Webflow and CookieYes, keep the Site working and secure and remember your cookie choices. Analytics cookies, set by Google Analytics, help us understand how the Site is used. We do not use advertising cookies.
When you first visit, a CookieYes banner lets you accept or reject analytics cookies. You can change your choice at any time through [the cookie settings link], and you can also block or delete cookies in your browser settings; the Site will still work. You can opt out of Google Analytics on all websites by installing Google’s Google Analytics browser add on. Google explains how it uses this data in How Google uses information from sites or apps that use our services.
[Build note: in CookieYes, block Google Analytics until a visitor accepts analytics cookies, or set the consent model counsel approves for US visitors, and confirm the cookie settings link or CookieYes revisit button is live. Set the Google Analytics data retention period to match the Retention section. Remove this note before publish.]
How long we keep information
We keep contact form submissions and related correspondence for as long as needed to respond and to manage any resulting business relationship, and then for [retention period] unless a longer period is required by law. Google Analytics data is kept for [2 or 14 months], the retention period set in our Google Analytics account. Technical logs are kept by Webflow under its own retention schedule.
How we protect information
We use reasonable administrative, technical and physical safeguards to protect information. No method of transmission or storage is completely secure, so we cannot guarantee absolute security.
Your choices and rights
You can ask us to access, correct or delete personal information you have provided, or to stop contacting you, by emailing [privacy email]. We will respond within the time required by applicable law and may need to verify your request.
Depending on where you live, you may have additional rights under state privacy laws, including the right to know what we collect, to delete it, to correct it and to opt out of its sale or sharing. We do not sell or share personal information as those terms are defined by law. We will not discriminate against you for exercising these rights.
[Counsel review: confirm whether Telos meets the thresholds of the California Consumer Privacy Act or other state laws, and expand this section if so. Remove this note before publish.]
Children’s privacy
The Site is intended for business audiences and is not directed to children under 13 [or 16]. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If you believe a child has provided us information, contact us and we will delete it.
Visitors outside the United States
Telos is based in the United States, and the Site is hosted in the United States. If you visit from another country, your information will be transferred to and processed in the United States, where data protection laws may differ from those in your country.
Links to other sites
The Site links to third party sites, such as LinkedIn. Their privacy practices are governed by their own policies, not this one.
Changes to this policy
We may update this policy from time to time. When we do, we will change the “Last updated” date above. Material changes will be noted on this page.
