Privacy Policy

The Responsible Power Systems Limited Privacy Policy

Here’s how we protect your data and respect your privacy.


Our role in your privacy

If you are our customer or subscriber, or just visiting our website, this policy applies to you. This website is owned and operated by Responsible Power. We recognise that visitors to our site may be concerned about the information they provide to us, online or otherwise, and how we treat that information. This Privacy Policy addresses those concerns.

Our responsibilities

We here at Responsible Power respect the privacy of all our supporters, whether customers, members of our mailing lists, or visitors to our website. All information obtained, including name, email address, company name etc., shall be kept strictly confidential by the Responsible Power, unless permission is obtained to release such information. We will not sell, rent or trade your personal information with any other entity.  Should you have questions regarding our privacy policy, you may contact us at contact@responsiblepower.co.uk

Your responsibilities

  • Read this Privacy Policy
  • If you provide us with personal information, we will only use that information for the specific reason for which it was provided to us. By submitting the information, you confirm that you have the right to authorise us to process it on your behalf in accordance with this Privacy Policy.

When and how we collect data  

On our website we do not collect personally identifiable information from individuals unless they provide it to us voluntarily and knowingly. This means we do not require you to register or provide information to us in order to view our site. Responsible Power only gathers personally identifiable information, such as name, email address, company name etc., when voluntarily submitted by a visitor. For example, personally identifiable information may be collected when the visitor contacts us using the contact form or signs up for our newsletter. This information is available to Responsible Power and other service providers involved in the operation of this site. Responsible Power requires that all third-party service providers hold personal information in strict confidence. While we do not own or control these companies, we believe they are upstanding and will treat your personal information responsibly.

Opt-out policy

If you supply us with your email address you may receive periodic communications from us with information on our programs and services. If you do not want to receive these from us in the future, please let us know by sending your request via email to contact@responsiblepower.co.uk

Exceptions to Opt-out policy

Responsible Power may disclose personal information if compelled by law or a regulatory authority. In addition, we may need to disclose personal information in special cases when we have reason to believe that disclosing this information is necessary to identify, contact or bring legal action against someone who may be causing injury or interfering (either intentionally or unintentionally) with Responsible Power’s rights or property and if we believe in order to further help the visitor it’s necessary to pass on such information.

How we use “cookies”

Visitors should be aware that non-personal information and data may be automatically collected by Responsible Power’s website through the use of “cookies.”  Cookies are small text files that a website can use to recognise repeat visitors, facilitate visitors’ ongoing access to and use of the site, and allow a site to track usage behaviour and compile aggregate data that will facilitate content improvements.

Cookies are not programs that come onto a visitor’s system and damage files. Generally, cookies work by assigning to the visitor a unique number that has no meaning outside the assigning site. If a visitor does not want information collected through the use of cookies, there is a simple procedure in most browsers that allows the visitor to deny or accept the cookie feature. For more information about how to disable cookies, refer to the “help” or “customer support” section of your specific browser application. Responsible Power uses cookie technology only to obtain non-personal information from its online visitors in order to improve visitors’ online experience and facilitate their visit within our site.

How can I block cookies?

You can block cookies by activating a setting on your browser allowing you to refuse the setting of cookies. You can also delete cookies through your browser settings. If you use your browser settings to disable, reject, or block cookies (including essential cookies), certain parts of our website will not function fully. Please note that where third parties use cookies we have no control over how those third parties use those cookies
