If we make material changes, we will notify you by means of a notice on Kilowatt. We recommend that you review our privacy policy regularly for information about our latest privacy policies and practices.

Google’s ability to use and share information collected by Google Analytics regarding your visits to this site is restricted by the Google Analytics Terms of Service and Privacy Policy.

We do use certain cookies (such as Google Analytics’ cookies) and other similar technologies as part of our Kilowatt services.
