Confidentiality and GDPR

GDPR: Strong

Project data and customer details (address, energy consumption, installation status) are personal data under the GDPR. Only use systems with a data processing agreement and EU hosting. Technical documentation from manufacturers may be protected by copyright; check the usage licence before loading it into an AI system. AI estimates are always a starting point, expert verification remains essential.

Data is held in the EU by default (Paris cloud, plus EU regions via Bedrock/Azure/Vertex). Open models run entirely in your own environment. Pro/Team/Enterprise and API do not train on your data.

Rule of thumb Use the business variant with a data processing agreement, and keep a human in the loop for decisions that matter.
