Privacy Policy
Last updated: 5 November 2026
This website is operated by Local Rebate, the data controller for this website. Contact: admin@localrebate.org.
1. What we do
Homewizzy is a free lead generation service. When you submit an enquiry, we pass your details to one MCS-certified solar installer covering your postcode, as described in the consent statement on our form, so they can contact you about a quote. On request we will tell you which installer received your details. We are paid by installers for introductions. Submitting an enquiry does not oblige you to buy anything.
2. What we collect
Name, email, phone number, address and postcode, information about your property and the solar system you are interested in, your answers in the enquiry form, technical data (IP address, browser, device), marketing attribution data (e.g. campaign and click identifiers) and a record of your consent.
3. How we use it and on what basis
- To pass your enquiry to the installer and enable them to contact you by phone, SMS or email — on the basis of the consent you give in the form.
- To operate, secure and improve our website, measure our advertising and keep records of enquiries and consents — on the basis of our legitimate interests.
- To comply with legal obligations where required.
We do not use your data for our own marketing unless you separately opt in. You can withdraw consent at any time by emailing admin@localrebate.org or by telling the installer directly.
4. Who we share it with
- The installer described in your consent statement. They are an independent data controller for their own use of your data and will contact you under their own privacy policy. We pass each enquiry to one installer only.
- Service providers who process data on our behalf under contract: website hosting (Cloudflare), form and lead management, CRM and automation tools, and address lookup (Google Maps Platform, which receives the address you type to suggest matches).
- Advertising platforms (Meta, Google, TikTok, Outbrain), which receive limited, pseudonymised data to measure our campaigns.
5. International transfers
Our team and some service providers are located outside the UK, including in Australia, the EEA and the United States. Where personal data leaves the UK we rely on UK adequacy regulations or the UK International Data Transfer Agreement / Addendum.
6. Retention
We keep enquiry data and consent records for 24 months from submission, unless a longer period is required by law or to deal with a dispute or complaint. Installers apply their own retention periods.
7. Your rights
You can ask us to access, correct, delete or restrict your personal data, object to processing based on legitimate interests, receive a copy in a portable format, and withdraw consent. You can object to direct marketing at any time. Email admin@localrebate.org; we respond within one month and do not charge a fee.
8. Cookies
We use cookies for site operation and, with your consent, for advertising measurement and analytics. See our Cookie Policy.
9. Automated decisions
Our form may automatically check basic eligibility (for example, whether you own your home). This does not produce legal or similarly significant effects on you.
10. Complaints
Email admin@localrebate.org with "Complaint" in the subject line. We acknowledge complaints within 5 working days and respond within 30 days. You can also complain to the Information Commissioner's Office at ico.org.uk/make-a-complaint or 0303 123 1113.
11. Changes
We may update this policy; changes are posted here with a new date.
