Privacy Policy

This policy covers what personal information ChargePoint collects, how that information is collected and why we need it. Personal information is information about you that is personally identifiable like your name, address, email address, or phone number, and that is not otherwise publicly available. This policy does not cover the practices of companies other than ChargePoint or people who are not employed or managed by ChargePoint. Third party sites provide the products and services listed on ChargePoint and these sites have their own privacy statements and are not covered by this policy. 

When you visit www.thechargepoint.com we use a third-party service, Google Analytics, to collect standard internet log information and details of visitor behaviour patterns. We do this to find out things such as the number of visitors to the various parts of the site. This information is only processed in a way which does not identify anyone. We do not make, and do not allow Google to make, any attempt to find out the identities of those visiting our website. 

We use cookies to personalise content, ads and to analyse our traffic. We also share information about your use of our site with our advertising and analytics partners who may combine it with other information that you’ve provided to them or that they’ve collected from your use of their services.

Cookies are a standard Internet technology, and many major web sites use them to provide useful features for their members. Cookies allow us to store and retrieve login and other information on a user’s system. They provide us with data that we can use to improve our service to you. Cookies themselves do not personally identify users, although they do identify a user’s computer. The default setting for most browsers is to accept cookies; if you prefer you can set yours to refuse them. If you choose not to accept cookies you will not be able to take full advantage of ChargePoint. 

Should you have any questions or comments in connection with our cookie information and/or our processing of personal data, please visit our Cookie Policy page. Otherwise, you are welcome to get in touch with our cookie information consent management platform – Cookie Information. The cookie declaration itself is updated every month via Cookie Information. If you have any questions regarding the Cookie Information, you can send an email to info@cookieinformation.com.

When completing a contact form, resource download or newsletter sign up form on our website we collect the personal information you provide.

Your data will be stored for up to 3 years in our database, when we will contact you to see if ChargePoint is still of interest to you. We don’t rent or trade email lists or contact information with other organisations or businesses.

We believe it is necessary to share information in order to investigate, prevent or take action regarding illegal activities, suspected fraud, or as otherwise required by law. 

ChargePoint is acquired by or merged with another company. In this event ChargePoint will notify you before your information is transferred and becomes subject to a different privacy policy.
