Privacy Policy

Last updated: January 28, 2026

NoDepositLights.com is operated by Compare Power, LLC ("we," "us," or "our"). This Privacy Policy describes how we collect, use, share, and protect your personal information when you visit NoDepositLights.com (the "Site"). By using the Site, you consent to the practices described in this policy.

1. Information We Collect

We collect the following types of information:

a. Information You Provide

  • ZIP code — Used to determine your electric service territory and display available light plans in your area.
  • Email address — If you voluntarily sign up for alerts or notifications.
  • Contact information — If you email us or submit a support request, we collect whatever information you choose to provide.

b. Information Collected Automatically

When you visit the Site, we automatically collect certain information through cookies and similar technologies:

  • Device and browser information — Browser type, operating system, screen resolution, and device type.
  • Usage data — Pages visited, time on site, click patterns, referring URLs, and search terms that brought you to our Site.
  • IP address — Used for approximate location, fraud prevention, and analytics.
  • Cookies and tracking pixels — Small files placed on your device to remember preferences, analyze traffic, and track affiliate referrals. See Section 5 for details.

c. Information from Third Parties

We may receive information from analytics providers (such as Google Analytics), advertising partners, and affiliate networks to help us understand how the Site is used and improve our services.

2. How We Use Your Information

We use the information we collect to:

  • Show you no-deposit and prepaid light plans available at your address.
  • Improve the Site's content, functionality, and user experience.
  • Track affiliate referrals and attribute commissions when you enroll with a light company through our links.
  • Send you notifications or alerts if you have opted in.
  • Respond to your questions or support requests.
  • Detect and prevent fraud, abuse, or unauthorized access.
  • Comply with legal obligations.

3. How We Share Your Information

We do not sell your personal information. We may share information in the following circumstances:

  • Light companies and retail electric providers (REPs) — When you click to enroll with a light company, you are redirected to that company's website (or to Compare Power). Any information you provide during enrollment is governed by that company's privacy policy.
  • Service providers — We use third-party services for analytics, hosting, and site functionality. These providers only access your data as needed to perform services on our behalf.
  • Affiliate networks — We share referral tracking data (such as click IDs and timestamps) with affiliate networks to attribute commissions. This does not include your name, email, or contact information.
  • Legal requirements — We may disclose information if required by law, regulation, court order, or governmental request.
  • Business transfers — In the event of a merger, acquisition, or sale of assets, your information may be transferred as part of that transaction.

4. Data We Do NOT Collect

NoDepositLights.com is a comparison site, not an electric provider. We do not collect:

  • Social Security numbers
  • Credit card or bank account information
  • Credit reports or credit scores
  • Electricity account numbers
  • Government-issued identification

Any sensitive information required for enrollment is collected directly by the light company you choose, not by us.

5. Cookies and Tracking Technologies

We use the following cookies and tracking technologies:

  • Essential cookies — Remember your ZIP code during your session and ensure the Site functions properly.
  • Analytics cookies — Google Analytics tracks anonymous usage patterns so we can improve the Site. You can opt out at tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout.
  • Affiliate tracking cookies — Track referrals so we receive credit when you enroll through our links. These cookies may persist for up to 30 days.
  • Advertising pixels — We may use pixels from advertising platforms to measure the effectiveness of our marketing efforts.

Most browsers allow you to block or delete cookies through your browser settings. Note that disabling cookies may affect the Site's functionality.

6. Do Not Track

Some browsers send a "Do Not Track" signal to websites. Because there is no industry standard for how to respond to these signals, the Site does not currently alter its practices when it receives a Do Not Track signal.

7. Data Security

We use industry-standard security measures, including SSL/TLS encryption, to protect data transmitted through the Site. However, no method of electronic transmission or storage is 100% secure. We cannot guarantee absolute security, but we take reasonable steps to protect your information.

8. Data Retention

We retain automatically collected data (analytics, logs) for up to 26 months. If you provide your email address for notifications, we retain it until you unsubscribe. We may retain certain information longer if required by law or for legitimate business purposes.

9. Your Rights and Choices

Depending on your location, you may have the following rights:

  • Access — Request a copy of the personal information we hold about you.
  • Deletion — Request that we delete your personal information.
  • Opt-out of email — Unsubscribe from notifications at any time using the link in any email we send.
  • Cookie preferences — Adjust your browser settings to block or delete cookies.

To exercise any of these rights, contact us at privacy@nodepositlights.com.

10. Children's Privacy

The Site is not intended for children under 13 years of age. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If you believe we have collected information from a child under 13, please contact us immediately and we will take steps to delete that information.

11. Third-Party Websites

The Site contains links to third-party websites, including light companies and Compare Power. When you click these links, you leave our Site and are subject to the privacy policies of those third parties. We encourage you to review their privacy policies before providing any personal information.

12. California Residents

If you are a California resident, you may have additional rights under the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA), including the right to know what personal information we collect, the right to request deletion, and the right to opt out of the sale of personal information. We do not sell personal information. To exercise your CCPA rights, contact us at privacy@nodepositlights.com.
