Our company and your products and services

As our products and services may be provided to you by different partnering companies, it may be that your personal information needs to be passed to the relevant company or companies. Just so you know other than us, our partnering companies who may have access to your personal information under their own privacy policy.

So, what personal information do we collect about you?

We collect the personal information required in order to contract your supply together with billing information, credit checks and inquiry forms. We may also keep a record of references received from third parties (for example from credit reference or fraud prevention agencies) and of any other correspondence or communication between you and us, whether written, e-mailed, or because of visits, interviews or recorded telephone calls.

We will (unless it's impractical) tell you, if we obtain and store information from any other source and how we intend to use it in accordance with this privacy policy.

We therefore do not guarantee the security of personal information that you send to us, or your use of the site. Any personal information you do send is at your own risk but once we receive it we use strict procedures to safeguard it.

How do we use your personal information?

We will use the information you give us, or which we legally receive from another organisation or person, to set up and manage your gas or electricity account (or both) with us. We process this information in the performance of our contract with you, or as we have a legitimate interest to process your personal information. We may share it with all relevant industry organisations as required by agreed industry processes. We may use it and share it with any department within the company to:

• Help us identify you so we know who we are talking to;

• Supply you with gas or electricity (or both) or any other services that you request;

• Work out your bills, consumption, unit pricing, increase/decrease in comparison to existing or previous energy supplier(s).

• help prevent and detect fraud or loss;

• Train staff and monitor our services. This means that we may record our conversations or our correspondence with you to make sure we are providing you with a good service and to make sure we keep to our legal and regulatory obligations. In addition, these files provide a record of our conversations and protect both parties.

We may pass information about you to our agents and service providers for these purposes. This may involve passing your information outside of the European Economic Area (EEA) to countries that do not have the same data protection standards as we do in the UK. If we, or our agents and service providers, do this, we will make sure that it happens only with the relevant legal protection in place, such as standard EU contract clauses. If we are asked, we may pass your information on for regulatory purposes to Ofgem (or any organisation which takes over Ofgem’s role), or as part of a government data-sharing initiative.

Our Agents and Service Providers may search the files of credit-reference agencies who will record the search. They may share information about how you deal with your account with other financial institutions, with credit-reference agencies and with fraud-prevention agencies. They may use this information to prevent possible fraud, and to help assess your ability to pay our bills and to make decisions about the products and services that we offer you.

If you have given us your mobile phone number or email address (or both), we may use the information to send you service messages or other similar information (by text message or email). The aim is to help manage your account. We may use your contact details for marketing purposes however this will be marketing solely for the interest of EverSave and no third party. However, you wish to opt out of our marketing please contact us via https://www.eversave.co.uk/contact-us

We will release your account details to any organisation or service provider solely for the purpose of payment for services relating to electricity and gas supply.
