Privacy Policy
1. Who we are
HelioMatch is a UK-facing comparison website operated by a private individual based in the United Kingdom.
Contact email:
HelioMatch operates on a direct-link affiliate model. It provides comparison tools, calculators, and information to help users evaluate solar-related options before clicking through to third-party providers.
HelioMatch does not operate as a lead generation service and does not collect personal enquiry data.
2. What HelioMatch does not collect
HelioMatch is intentionally designed not to collect or store:
- names, email addresses, telephone numbers, or postal addresses;
- payment details;
- lead-form submissions or quote requests;
- user accounts or login credentials; or
- calculator answers as named enquiries or leads.
The calculator and matcher are designed to operate client-side in the browser and are not intended to submit personal information to HelioMatch.
3. Limited technical data
Like most websites, HelioMatch may still process limited technical data necessary for hosting, security, uptime monitoring, debugging, or referral attribution. This can include IP addresses, browser details, timestamps, requested URLs, and similar server-side diagnostics.
4. Purpose and lawful basis
Any limited technical processing is generally carried out for legitimate interests connected to operating, securing, maintaining, and understanding the performance of the website.
5. Third-party providers
If a user clicks to an external installer or provider, that provider becomes responsible for its own privacy practices, cookie controls, and data handling after the user leaves HelioMatch.
6. User rights
Where UK data protection law applies, users may have rights to access, rectify, erase, restrict, or object to relevant personal data processing. Requests can be sent to . Users can also raise concerns with the ICO.
Cookie Policy
7. Current cookie policy
HelioMatch does not use non-essential cookies such as advertising or remarketing cookies on-site.
Some limited technical data may be processed for basic hosting, security, and performance purposes.
Outbound links may include affiliate tracking parameters. Once you leave HelioMatch, third-party websites may use their own cookies in accordance with their own privacy policies.
8. Affiliate links and third-party tracking
Some outbound links may contain referral parameters so clicks can be attributed to HelioMatch. Once a user leaves the site, the external provider's cookie policy and privacy notice apply.
Affiliate Disclosure
9. How HelioMatch is funded
HelioMatch is an affiliate comparison website. Some outbound links to third-party installers, operators, or networks may generate commission or referral income.
Using a HelioMatch link does not automatically increase the price a user pays to the third party. Pricing, availability, and contract terms are controlled by the third party.
10. Editorial judgement and market coverage
Provider positioning may take into account editorial research, public information, service fit, battery or finance availability, geographic coverage, and commercial relationships. Rankings are not determined solely by commission levels.
HelioMatch does not claim to survey the whole market or include every possible installer or tariff.
Calculator, Savings, VAT & SEG Disclaimer
11. Informational only
Any cost range, payback period, annual saving, SEG figure, ROI estimate, VAT reference, or illustrative example on HelioMatch is provided for general informational purposes only. It is not financial, tax, engineering, investment, or legal advice.
12. Estimates and assumptions
The calculator and matcher rely on broad assumptions and should be treated as directional estimates only. Unless expressly stated otherwise, outputs should be understood as approximate and capable of varying materially depending on roof characteristics, region, usage pattern, shading, export tariff, system design, and installer pricing.
13. No guarantee of savings or performance
HelioMatch does not guarantee a specific level of savings, export income, payback, ROI, VAT outcome, grant eligibility, or technical suitability. Users should obtain current quotations and technical assessments from appropriately qualified providers before making a purchase decision.
By using the HelioMatch calculator, users acknowledge that results are indicative only and agree not to rely on them as a sole basis for financial or investment decisions.
Calculator disclaimer: HelioMatch provides this calculator as a general research tool only. It does not provide financial, investment, tax, engineering, or legal advice. Outputs are illustrative estimates based on broad assumptions and should not be relied on as the sole basis for a purchasing decision.
Actual savings, export income, payback period, and long-term return can vary materially depending on factors including roof size, roof condition, roof pitch, shading, orientation, local generation levels, household consumption patterns, equipment specification, battery configuration, export tariff, maintenance costs, finance costs, and installer pricing.
Users should always obtain current quotations and technical advice from appropriately qualified installers before entering into any contract. HelioMatch does not guarantee any particular outcome, saving level, or return on investment.
