PRIVACY NOTICE
Eliq AB (“we”, “us” or “Eliq”) is dedicated to protecting your privacy. It is important to us that you are aware of what information we collect about you, how it is collected and how we use your personal data, in connection with your use of the Energy Insights service. We also want to tell you about your rights relating to your data and how to exercise your rights.

Energy Insights is a service provided in an app where we analyze the way your household uses electricity over time to provide you with analyses on your consumption patterns and recommendations on how you could reduce your energy consumption (when we use the word “service” we are referring to the Energy Insights service).

Personal information we collect and where we collect it from
Information which we receive from you directly.
We collect information about your heating type, hot water system, amount of people living together, type of building (apartment/house/other), size of living space, type of home appliances and devices, information regarding solar panels, information regarding electric vehicles, location of your electricity supply point, geographical location, zip code and inside/outside temperature. We collectively refer to the information above as “household data”. Because it’s data which relates to your household.
Other information we gather from you is your contact information (name and e-mail address or phone number).

Information which we collect about you from other sources.
If you have an automatic “smart” electricity meter we collect the information about your electricity consumption from your electricity meter. If you have an automatic “smart” electricity meter we also collect some of the household data (depending on what your meter is able to provide) from your electricity meter, such as geographical location, zip code, location of your electricity supply point and information about inside/outside temperature.
