Privacy Policy

InWave Renewables, LLC ("InWave," "we," "us," or "our") respects your privacy. This policy explains how we collect, use, and share personal information through our website and related communications, including project inquiries and job applications.

Separate notices or agreements may apply to employee records, onboarding, or information collected through other business processes.

Information we collect

Information you provide. When you contact us, submit a form, send bid documents, or discuss a project, we collect the information you provide. This may include your name, company, email address, phone number, and project details, such as location, size, utility, stage, and schedule. Documents you send may also contain business contact information for colleagues or other project participants.

We also collect your communication preferences, including whether you choose to receive InWave updates. Additional information about job applications appears below.

Technical information. Our website and hosting services receive information your browser sends, such as your IP address, browser and device information, requested pages, and the date and time of your visit. This information supports website operation, troubleshooting, and security.

Please do not submit Social Security numbers, financial account details, health information, or other sensitive personal information through general website forms or ordinary inquiry emails. If sensitive information is needed for a separate business process, contact us to arrange an appropriate way to provide it.

How we use information

We use personal information to:

• Respond to inquiries and communicate about potential or ongoing projects.
• Prepare proposals, pricing, and other requested information.
• Coordinate and deliver contracted services.
• Maintain business records relating to contacts, bids, projects, and subcontractors.
• Evaluate job applications and communicate with applicants.
• Send company updates and information about our services.
• Operate, maintain, and protect our website and business systems.
• Meet legal obligations, resolve disputes, and protect our rights.

How we share information

We may share personal information in the following circumstances:

Service providers. Providers supporting our website and business operations may receive information needed to provide hosting, email, contact management, document storage, and related services. Their handling of information is subject to applicable law and the relevant service agreements.

Project participants. When needed to respond to your request or perform contracted work, we may share relevant information with engineers, subcontractors, suppliers, project owners, or their representatives.

Professional advisers. We may share relevant information with legal, accounting, insurance, and other professional advisers supporting our business.

Legal and security purposes. We may disclose information to comply with applicable law, legal process, or lawful requests, or to protect the rights, property, or safety of InWave and others.

Business transactions. Information may be disclosed or transferred in connection with a proposed or completed merger, acquisition, financing, reorganization, or sale of business assets, subject to applicable confidentiality and legal requirements.

We do not sell personal information or share it for cross-context behavioral advertising or targeted advertising.

Marketing communications

We may send InWave updates and information about our services to business contacts. You can opt out at any time. Signing up for updates on our website is optional and is not required to contact us or request services.

Marketing emails include our postal address and a way to unsubscribe. You may also unsubscribe by emailing contact@inwavere.com. We honor unsubscribe requests within 10 business days.

Unsubscribing from marketing does not prevent us from sending necessary communications about an inquiry, application, bid, contract, or ongoing project.

Website technologies and browser settings

Our website uses cookies and similar browser storage that are needed for site functions and security. We do not currently use advertising or analytics cookies.

Technical information collected through our website is used for website operation, maintenance, troubleshooting, and security, as described above.

Your browser may allow you to manage or delete cookies and other browser storage. Restricting these technologies can affect some website functions.

We will update this policy to reflect changes in our use of website technologies and provide any additional notices or choices required by applicable law.

Our website does not respond differently to browser "Do Not Track" signals. This does not limit any privacy rights or opt-out requirements that apply under law.

How long we retain information

We retain personal information for as long as reasonably necessary for the purposes described in this policy. Retention depends on the type of information and the circumstances, including:

• Whether an inquiry, application, bid, or business relationship remains active.
• The need to maintain contract, project, warranty, and insurance records.
• Applicable legal, tax, accounting, and recordkeeping requirements.
• The need to investigate security issues, resolve disputes, or establish or defend legal claims.

Job application information and subcontractor records may be retained for consideration for future opportunities, subject to these criteria.

If you unsubscribe from marketing, we may retain a limited record of your email address and preference so that we can continue to honor your request.

When personal information is no longer needed, we take reasonable steps to delete or de-identify it in accordance with applicable requirements.

Information security

We use reasonable administrative, technical, and physical safeguards designed to protect personal information. No website, email service, or storage system can guarantee complete security.

If a security incident requires notification under applicable law, we will provide the required notice.

Job applicants

If you apply for a position or send your resume to careers@inwavere.com, we use your contact information, resume, employment history, qualifications, and other application materials to evaluate your suitability for current or future roles and communicate with you.

Application information may be accessed by people involved in recruitment and hiring, supporting service providers, and others where necessary for legal or compliance purposes.

You may ask us to delete your application information. We will consider your request subject to applicable recordkeeping requirements, legal holds, and other permitted grounds for retention.

Please do not include Social Security numbers, financial account details, or unnecessary sensitive information in your initial application. If you need an accommodation during the application process, contact us to discuss how to provide the relevant information.

Your privacy choices and rights

You may contact contact@inwavere.com to ask for access to, correction of, deletion of, or a copy of personal information we hold about you. We will consider your request as described below.

Depending on where you live and whether the relevant law applies to InWave, you may have additional rights. We review requests in accordance with applicable law, including any exceptions that allow or require us to retain information.

We may request information reasonably necessary to verify your identity and understand your request. Where applicable, an authorized agent may submit a request on your behalf, subject to verification of their authority.

We respond within the time required by applicable law. If a permitted extension is needed, we will provide the required notice.

If we decline a request, we will explain the reason to the extent required by law. You may ask us to review the decision by replying to our response. Where an applicable law provides a formal right to appeal, we will process the appeal and provide information about further options as required.

We do not discriminate against individuals for exercising applicable privacy rights.

Children's privacy

Our website is intended for business use and is not directed to children. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13.

If you believe a child has provided personal information to us, please contact us. If we learn that we have collected such information, we will take appropriate steps to delete it.
