Terms of Service

Acceptance of terms

By using voltbutler.com, you agree to these terms. If you do not agree, please discontinue use of the site.

What Volt Butler is and isn't

Volt Butler is an independent information and comparison site for electricity rates in deregulated U.S. markets. We provide data from public sources (U.S. Energy Information Administration, state public utility commissions) along with editorial commentary and links to licensed electricity suppliers and comparison platforms.

Volt Butler is not a licensed electricity broker, supplier, or regulated utility. We do not sell electricity. We do not enroll customers in electricity plans. We do not provide financial, legal, or tax advice.

Affiliate disclosure

We may earn a commission when you sign up with an electricity supplier or comparison service through links on our site. This does not change the price you pay; it is the standard arrangement that funds independent comparison sites. We disclose affiliate relationships on every page that contains a referral link. Our editorial recommendations are based on publicly available data, not on commission size.

Accuracy and timeliness

Rate data on this site comes from EIA, state public utility commissions, and similar public sources. We make reasonable efforts to keep data current, but electricity rates change frequently and our data may not reflect the most recent values. For current rates and offers, refer to your utility's bill or a supplier's official website.

We make no warranty that the information is complete, accurate, or up-to-date. Use the information as one input among others when making decisions about your electricity service.

Third-party links

The site contains links to third-party suppliers, comparison platforms, and regulatory websites. We are not responsible for the content, accuracy, or practices of third-party sites.

Intellectual property

The Volt Butler name, logo, and original editorial content are the property of Volt Butler. Utility, supplier, and regulatory names and logos are the property of their respective owners and are used for identification purposes only under nominative fair use.

Disclaimers and limitation of liability

The site is provided "as is" without warranties of any kind. To the maximum extent permitted by law, Volt Butler is not liable for any direct, indirect, incidental, or consequential damages arising from your use of the site or reliance on its content.

Indemnification

You agree to hold Volt Butler harmless from any claims arising from your misuse of the site or violation of these terms.
