  • Visual and audio records of your home and electricity set-up which we collect for our Concierge or other home-specific services are stored securely by BOOM! Power. They are only used to provide the service, and only shared with the installers you choose to get quotes from. We'll delete them once they're no longer needed, and you can ask us to delete them at any time.
  • Such records are captured and stored by a secure data platform called Blitzz (or equivalent) for use and download only by BOOM! Power and authorised business partners. We store them on our server, and we send relevant images like switchboards, rooflines, equipment plates and energy bills to the installers that have been selected. Blitzz deletes all data in 180 days unless we have a reason to retain it for longer and ask them not to.
  • Where we employ data processors to process personal information on our behalf, we only do so on the basis that such data processors comply with the requirements under the GDPR and that have adequate technical measures in place to protect personal information against unauthorised use, loss and theft.
  • The transmission and exchange of information via the internet is carried out at each party’s own risk.  Although we take measures to safeguard against unauthorised disclosures of information, public networks by nature are vulnerable to security breaches means that we cannot provide an absolute guarantee that personal information that we collect is protected.

  • We take complaints very seriously and will respond shortly after receiving written notice of your complaint.  If you are not satisfied with our handling of your complaint, you can raise a complaint with the Australian Information Commissioner.

11. Use of Artificial Intelligence 

  • Commencing in December 2026, under changes to the Privacy Principles we are required to set out certain information in this policy if (in summary) we use a computer program to make decisions that significantly affect the rights or interests of an individual, using personal information about them.  
  • We do not use computer programs to make decisions about individuals, so the principle does not currently apply to us.  We do use AI tools in market analysis generally, and in providing advice, support or quotes in individual circumstances involving personal information such as a home energy set-up, but such uses have no decision-making function.  If in future we expand our use of AI to decision-making about individuals, we will update this policy.

12. Changes to Privacy Policy


  • Please be aware that we may change this Privacy Policy in the future. We may modify this Policy at any time, in our sole discretion and all modifications will be effective immediately upon our posting of the modifications on our website or notice board.
