Privacy Policy

Last updated: February 2026

1. Overview

Volta Lawn Intelligence Inc. ("Volta," "we," "us") is committed to protecting your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, store, and share information in connection with our website, mobile app, and Lawn Care as a Service.

2. Privacy by Physics

The Lawn Companion uses a downward-facing camera that captures only agronomic data — images of turf, soil, and ground-level obstacles. The camera physically cannot capture faces, license plates, property interiors, or neighboring properties. This approach aligns with GDPR Article 25 — Data Protection by Design and by Default.

3. Data We Collect

3.1 Agronomic Data

Collected by the robot's downward-facing camera and sensors:

  • Turf surface imagery (grass, soil, ground-level objects)
  • Growth pattern metrics
  • Spatial mapping data (property boundaries, obstacle positions)
  • Environmental conditions (temperature, rain detection)

3.2 Operational Telemetry

  • Battery status and charging cycles
  • Mowing session data (area covered, duration)
  • Device health and performance metrics

3.3 Account Information

  • Name and email address
  • Property address and service location
  • Subscription plan and payment information

3.4 Website Data

  • Standard web analytics (page views, session data)
  • Cookie data (see our Cookie Policy)

4. How We Use Your Data

  • Providing and improving your lawn care service
  • Building and refining your lawn's spatial model
  • Contributing to Fleet Intelligence (aggregated, anonymized)
  • Customer support and communication
  • Billing and account management
  • Research and development

5. Fleet Intelligence & Aggregated Data

Lawn data is aggregated across Volta's fleet to improve the Lawn Intelligence platform. This aggregated data is anonymized — it helps the system learn turf behavior patterns but cannot be traced to individual properties.

6. Data Sharing

We do not sell personal information. We may share data with:

  • Authorized service dealers (for hardware service on your equipment)
  • Cloud infrastructure providers (for data processing)
  • Law enforcement (when legally required)

7. Data Security

[CLIENT TO PROVIDE — specific security measures, encryption standards, and data retention periods should be defined by legal and security counsel.]

8. Your Rights

[CLIENT TO PROVIDE — specific data access, deletion, portability rights, and GDPR/CCPA-specific disclosures should be drafted by legal counsel.]

9. Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy. Subscribers will be notified of material changes via the app or email.
