Consumer Data Right (CDR)

If the service you’re using is an accredited third party you’ll be prompted to consent to sharing your data. If you select yes, we’ll ask you to verify your identity using a One Time Password - which we’ll send to the mobile number which is connected to your Alinta Energy account.

Once we’ve successfully verified your identity, you can select and share data from any or all of your eligible Alinta Energy accounts. You’ll also be able to see exactly what we’re sharing and for what period of time, before you agree.

Please note that we will never ask you to share your Alinta Energy My Account password with us.

• Personal details (name, address etc.)
• Account details (account, concession and plan details)
• Payment information (billing frequency, payments and account balance)
• Billing History (invoices and billing adjustments)
• Electricity usage and metering information
• Electricity generation and storage information (solar panel and batteries)

To be eligible to share your CDR data, you’ll need to be

• at least 18 years old;
• have a mobile number and email registered and authenticated by us; and
• have an active Alinta Energy electricity account with us; and
• consumed less than 5GWh in the previous 12 months.

If you have an active Alinta Energy electricity account with us, but have any issues accessing the CDR online portal, you can contact us for help. We’ll be able to validate and verify your contact details if you wish to share your CDR data with an accredited third-party organisation.

Alinta Energy can only share your data with third parties who are accredited. You can find a complete list of ADRs here.

Note: Once data is shared with an accredited third party, Alinta Energy no longer manages this information. There is a possibility that some accredited third parties data centres are offshore, but rest assured all your Alinta Energy data is managed in Australia while it is with us.

Accredited third parties can only access your data with your consent. You can stop sharing and withdraw your consent at any time. We note that we cannot control where your data is stored by accredited third parties once you consent to share it with them.

If you need more information about the Consumer Data Right, read Alinta Energy's CDR Policy. 

If any of the CDR data we have shared about you is incorrect, please let us know by calling us on 13 39 08 for Residential and small business customers so we can update it.

Large business customers can request CDR data be corrected by emailing ci.services@alintaenergy.com.au or by contacting your dedicated account manager.

We will let you know who we shared your data with and how to request that your corrected CDR data is shared with the accredited third party. You can also cancel your request to share your data via the Alinta Energy portal at any time. Alternatively, you may contact the third party.

You have the right to request the accredited third party you shared your CDR data with to delete or de-identify your data. Any CDR data shared with a third party will be handled according to their own privacy and security procedures. You should check their app or website for more information on how they handle any CDR data you have already shared with them.
