This site is published by Agile Electrification Project, an industry coalition facilitated by the UC San Diego Design Lab, at 9500 Gilman Dr, La Jolla, CA 92093. It is an informational site about the coalition and its work.
What this site collects
Only what you choose to send us through the sign-up form. Reading the site still collects nothing: there are no accounts and no search, the site sets no cookies of its own and writes nothing to your browser’s local or session storage, and it runs no analytics and no advertising or marketing technology. Typefaces are served from this site rather than from an external font service. The one exception to “reading a page contacts no one else” is the spam check on the sign-up form, described below, which loads only on the page that has the form.
The sign-up form
If you sign up, we collect what you enter: your name, email address, company, role, the topics you are interested in, and any note you add. We also record when you sent it.
We use these details to follow up with you about taking part in the coalition’s playbook development and related opportunities. One of the coalition’s cofounders will reach out to you personally. We do not sell your details, and we do not add you to a mailing list unless you ask.
Sign-ups are saved to a private Google Sheet that only the people who follow up can open, and Google emails the coalition’s inbox when a new one arrives. We keep a sign-up for two years, or until you ask us to delete it, whichever comes first.
To see, correct, or delete what you sent us, write to privacy@agileelectrification.org and we will take care of it within 30 days.
Spam check
To keep bots from flooding the form, it uses Cloudflare Turnstile, which checks that a person is sending it. Turnstile runs only on the page with the form and usually works in the background, so most people never see it. To tell people from bots, it looks at signals from your browser and device. Cloudflare states that it uses these signals to detect and block bots; its Turnstile privacy addendum (opens in new tab) has the details.
What our hosting provider records
The site is served by Cloudflare. Like any web host, Cloudflare records standard request information such as IP address, browser user agent, the page requested, and a timestamp. That data exists to deliver pages and to protect the site from abuse. We do not use it to build profiles, we do not combine it with other sources, and we do not sell or share it. We do not maintain our own separate logs beyond what the host keeps.
If you email us
Email addresses published on this site are routed through Mailgun, our email provider, before reaching us. If you write to us, we receive what you send (your address, your message, and anything you attach) and keep it for as long as needed to respond and to maintain a normal record of correspondence. We use it only to reply to you and to carry out the coalition’s work.
Service providers
Three providers process data on our behalf: Cloudflare, for hosting, content delivery, and the form’s spam check; Google, which stores sign-ups in a Google Sheet and sends the email about each new one; and Mailgun, for email sent to our addresses. Each acts under its own terms and privacy practices. We share no data with anyone else, and this site transfers nothing to advertising networks, data brokers, or analytics vendors.
Tracking signals
The site performs no tracking, so Global Privacy Control and Do Not Track signals have nothing to act on. There is no tracking to opt out of and no consent banner, because nothing on the site requires your consent. The sign-up form is something you choose to fill in, and we use its spam check only to tell people from bots.
Alignment with UC San Diego’s privacy principles
The Design Lab is part of UC San Diego, and this site is built to match the university’s privacy principles (opens in new tab). In practice that means data minimization, since browsing collects nothing and the form asks only for what we need to follow up; transparency, since this notice describes what the site actually does; and due diligence, since the only third parties involved are the three named above. If you believe the site falls short of those principles, please tell us.
Changes to this notice
If we add anything that changes the picture, such as analytics, another form, or an embedded service, we will update this page before that change goes live, not after.
