Terms of Use

1. Acceptance of Terms

By accessing sunfinder.xyz ("the Site"), you agree to these Terms of Use. If you do not agree, please do not use the Site. We may update these terms at any time — continued use after changes constitutes acceptance.

2. Data Disclaimer

Solar yield data on this Site is derived from the PVGIS v5.3 satellite radiation database published by the European Commission Joint Research Centre. Electricity rate data is sourced from the U.S. Energy Information Administration (EIA). Incentive information is researched from state government sources and updated periodically.

All figures are estimates for informational purposes only. Actual solar production, savings, payback periods, and incentive amounts will vary based on your specific roof orientation, shading, equipment choice, installer pricing, utility rate plan, and local policy changes. Sunfinder does not guarantee the accuracy, completeness, or timeliness of any data on this Site. Do not make financial decisions based solely on information from this Site without consulting a qualified solar installer or financial advisor.

3. No Financial or Legal Advice

Nothing on this Site constitutes financial, tax, legal, or investment advice. Solar incentive information — including state tax credits, net metering rules, and SREC market details — reflects our understanding as of the stated update date and may have changed. Always verify incentive eligibility with your state tax authority, utility provider, or a licensed solar contractor before making purchasing decisions.

4. No Installer Affiliation

Sunfinder is an independent data site. We have no partnerships with solar installers, no referral relationships, and receive no compensation from any solar company for our content or data. We do not generate leads or sell user information to installers.

The design, layout, and original written content on this Site are the property of Sunfinder. Data sourced from PVGIS and EIA remains subject to their respective licenses. You may not reproduce, scrape, or republish our content in bulk without written permission. Limited quotation with attribution is permitted.

To the fullest extent permitted by law, Sunfinder shall not be liable for any direct, indirect, incidental, special, or consequential damages arising from your use of this Site or reliance on its content, including but not limited to financial losses, installation decisions, or inaccurate savings estimates.
