Privacy policy

Switch to Octopus is an independent guide. We keep the site deliberately light: no account login, no quote form and no collection of Octopus account, meter or payment details.

What this site collects

When you browse the site, we use cookie-free analytics to understand which pages are useful and whether people reach the referral page. That helps us improve the site without asking you to create an account here.

We do not collect Octopus account numbers, MPAN or MPRN details, meter readings, Direct Debit details, card details or energy account passwords on this site. If you choose to email us, we will receive the information you include in that message.

Analytics and referral clicks

Analytics events may tell us that a visitor opened a guide, went to the referral page or clicked a referral button. They do not tell us whether Octopus accepted the switch, what tariff you chose or what your Octopus account later contains.

If you follow our referral link, you leave Switch to Octopus and continue on Octopus Energy's own website. Octopus then handles the signup, quote, account and payment information under its own privacy policy and referral terms.

Cookies and local storage

The site is designed not to need tracking cookies for normal browsing. Some browser or hosting-level storage may still be used by your device, network or the services that deliver the page, but we do not run a login area or advertising tracker here.

Contact and corrections

If you email [email protected], use the message for site feedback rather than sending sensitive account information. We may keep the message long enough to reply and maintain the site.

If you want information about an Octopus account, tariff quote or referral credit, contact Octopus Energy directly through its own account and support channels.

If Octopus fits your home, our referral link can get you £50 credit once your switch is complete. Existing customer? Find out how you can benefit too. T&Cs apply (only one switching offer per household).
