Referral Routing Disclosure
Florida Home Charger operates as an independent consumer information and referral agency. We are not an electrical contractor, engineering firm, or utility company. By submitting your personal contact details or calling our intake phone number, you explicitly authorize Florida Home Charger to share your inquiry information with independent, third-party electrical contractors licensed by the State of Florida for the exclusive purpose of fulfilling your installation request.
1. Overview & Scope of This Policy
This Privacy Policy governs the collection, storage, and processing of personal data collected through the Florida Home Charger website (floridahomecharger.com) and our customer service phone intake desk at (407) 557-9563. This policy applies to all Florida residents and homeowners who access our educational materials or request contractor referrals across our service territory.
We respect your privacy and are committed to maintaining transparent data management standards in compliance with Florida state privacy guidelines and federal consumer protection regulations.
2. Information We Collect
We collect information directly from you when you call our intake phone line or complete a consultation referral form on our website:
- Personally Identifiable Information (PII): Your name, phone number, email address, physical service address, and Florida city or ZIP code.
- Technical Project Details: Electric vehicle make and model, desired charging station brand, existing electrical service panel rating (e.g. 100A, 150A, 200A), garage or carport configuration, and specific project timelines.
- Automated Browsing Telemetry: Anonymized server logs, Internet Protocol (IP) addresses, browser user-agent strings, referral source URLs, and page visit metrics collected via standard web server logs and performance cookies.
3. How We Use and Transmit Consumer Information
The primary purpose for which we collect consumer data is to connect Florida homeowners with qualified, licensed, and insured electrical contractors capable of providing accurate estimates and executing code-compliant installations. Specifically, we use your data to:
- Match With Independent Contractors: Forward your project specifications and contact information to independent electrical contractors holding active Florida DBPR licenses in your geographic municipal jurisdiction.
- Deliver Customer Support: Respond to your telephonic inquiries, verify appointment requests, and ensure quality control regarding referral delivery.
- Website Improvement & Analytics: Analyze aggregate visitor trends to expand educational content covering Florida electrical codes, utility rebates, and permitting updates.
We Do Not Sell Consumer Data: Florida Home Charger does not sell, lease, or rent your personal contact information to unrelated third-party marketing firms, lead aggregators, or automated robocalling networks.
4. TCPA Communication Consent
By voluntarily providing your telephone number through our contact form or calling our intake line at (407) 557-9563, you grant express consent to be contacted by Florida Home Charger and our referred independent licensed electrical contractors regarding your residential EV charging installation project.
Communications may occur via voice telephone calls, live agent consultations, or transactional SMS text messages regarding appointment scheduling and estimate delivery. Your consent to receive these calls or messages is not a condition of purchasing any property, goods, or services. You may revoke communication consent at any time by notifying our intake desk or replying "STOP" to any received text message.
5. Data Security, Storage & Cookies
We implement administrative, technical, and physical security measures to safeguard your personal data from unauthorized access, alteration, disclosure, or destruction. All web traffic to floridahomecharger.com is encrypted in transit using industry-standard Transport Layer Security (TLS 1.3 / HTTPS).
We do not store credit card or financial payment numbers on our servers. Financial transactions for electrical installation labor and materials occur directly between you and the independent electrical contractor you choose to hire.

- Revocation and Deletion: If you request removal from our referral system, your identifiable contact records are purged from active routing queues within 30 calendar days, subject to standard archival backup retention schedules.
- Aggregate Non-Personal Telemetry: Anonymized web usage analytics and traffic metrics may be preserved indefinitely for capacity planning and technical performance optimization.
