Terms & Conditions
Terms & Conditions
Plain English, no nasty surprises. Here’s everything you need to know about using SolarBriton.co.uk.
By using this website, you accept these Terms. They took effect from the date shown above and we’ll always display the latest “updated” date at the top.
Who We Are
SolarBriton.co.uk is a UK-based digital publication dedicated to all things solar. We research, write, and publish independent guides, product comparisons, installation cost breakdowns, and buying advice — covering everything from residential solar panels to commercial solar systems, battery storage, and EV charging.
We’re not a solar installer, an energy supplier, or a regulated financial adviser. Think of us as a knowledgeable mate who’s done all the legwork — someone who can point you in the right direction, but whose advice you should always double-check with a certified professional before parting with any money.
Using Our Site
SolarBriton.co.uk is free to browse and open to everyone. All we ask is that you use it sensibly and in good faith. Here’s a quick summary of the ground rules:
| You’re welcome to… | Please don’t… |
|---|---|
| Read our guides and articles freely | Copy or republish our content without permission |
| Share links to our pages on social media or elsewhere | Attempt to scrape or bulk-harvest our data automatically |
| Quote short excerpts with a clear credit and link back to us | Use our brand name, logo, or design without written consent |
| Use our calculators and tools for personal research | Interfere with, disrupt, or attempt to hack our website |
| Get in touch with questions, feedback, or corrections | Submit content that is unlawful, harmful, or misleading |
You should be at least 18 years old to submit contact forms or register for any communications from us. We reserve the right to restrict access to the site at our discretion — though we’d only do this for a genuine reason.
Products & Information We Cover
We publish information, guides, and comparisons across a wide range of solar energy products available in the UK. Our content is aimed at helping UK homeowners and businesses understand their options — it’s informational, not a substitute for site-specific, professional advice.
The UK solar market moves quickly — prices, product specifications, and available grants can change without notice. Please verify all details directly with an MCS-accredited supplier or installer before making any purchasing decisions. Our content is a starting point, not a final answer.
Intellectual Property
All content on SolarBriton.co.uk — including our articles, graphics, original data, calculators, icons, branding, and site design — belongs to SolarBriton.co.uk or is licensed to us. You’re welcome to quote short excerpts with a clear credit and a link back to the original page, but please don’t reproduce whole articles, reverse-engineer our tools, or repurpose our branding without written permission.
Want to use our content for something legitimate — a news piece, a school project, a non-commercial guide? Just ask at support@solarbriton.co.uk. We’re usually happy to say yes.
Third-Party Links & Affiliate Disclosure
Our guides often link to useful external resources — solar retailers, installers, manufacturers, and government schemes like the Smart Export Guarantee (SEG). These links are provided in good faith. Once you click away from our site, we have no control over what you’ll find, and we can’t be held responsible for content on third-party websites.
- Some links on SolarBriton.co.uk may be affiliate links — meaning we earn a small commission if you buy something, at no extra cost to you.
- We only recommend products and services we genuinely believe are useful and good value for UK buyers.
- Affiliate arrangements never influence what we write or which products we recommend.
- Where required by UK advertising standards (CAP Code), we clearly label commercial content.
Limitation of Liability
We put genuine care into everything we publish. That said, we can’t guarantee that every piece of information on this site is 100% accurate, complete, or current at all times — the UK solar landscape, government incentives, and energy tariffs can shift quickly.
- Publishing content in good faith and with care
- Correcting factual errors when we’re made aware
- Protecting your personal data under UK GDPR
- Responding to legitimate complaints fairly
- Being transparent about commercial relationships
- Decisions or losses arising from using our content
- Inaccuracies on third-party sites we link to
- Technical outages or downtime beyond our control
- Changes to government solar grants or energy tariffs
- Variations in solar product prices or availability
Nothing in these Terms limits our liability for death, personal injury, fraud, or any other matter that cannot legally be excluded under the laws of England and Wales.
Privacy & Cookies
Your privacy is something we take seriously. We operate in full compliance with the UK General Data Protection Regulation (UK GDPR) and the Data Protection Act 2018. Our full Privacy Policy covers exactly what personal data we collect, why we collect it, how long we keep it, and your rights.
We use cookies to understand how people navigate our site and to make your experience better. On your first visit, you’ll see a cookie banner — you’re in full control of which non-essential cookies you allow. You can update your preferences at any time.
Changes to These Terms
We may update these Terms from time to time — for example, if we introduce new features, change how we handle affiliate links, or if UK law requires it. When that happens, we’ll update the “Last updated” date at the top of this page.
We’ll do our best to flag any major changes clearly. Carrying on using SolarBriton.co.uk after an update means you’re happy with the revised Terms. If you’re not, please stop using the site and get in touch.
Governing Law
These Terms and Conditions are governed by the law of England and Wales. Any disputes arising from your use of this site will be subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of England and Wales.
If you’re accessing our site from Scotland or Northern Ireland, local law may also apply in certain circumstances. Whatever happens, we’d far rather sort any issues directly and sensibly — so please do contact us first before things escalate anywhere near a legal stage.
Got a Question About These Terms?
We’re real people and we’re happy to chat. If anything on this page isn’t clear, drop us an email and we’ll come back to you within 2 working days.
