Our software will read and process your Pre-Construction and As-Built H2k files, instantly generating the BC ESC Compliance report. Some users may wish to review the more content-heavy areas of the report (typically the Building Summaries) to ensure that the content that we produced is to their satisfaction. Everything else is drawn directly from the H2K file, so you don’t have to waste time re-entering and updating that information each time.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can you access any files in my DropBox?

No, we are only able to access the files within the StepUp folder within your DropBox. We do not have access to your broader DropBox files.

Can your team see or access my files?

The Energy View Automation operations team is unable to see or access your HOT2000 files or your StepCode Compliance reports. Only our secure, web-based application has access to your files. If you or we experience an issue, we have the ability – with your express permission – to take a copy of a HOT2000 file or a StepCode Compliance report for troubleshooting purposes. We will only do this with your express permission. Once the issue is resolved, we will destroy any copies of your data.

Do you retain a copy of my files?

No, we do not keep a copy of any of your files. When you upload an As-Built Report, the Pre-Construction Compliance Report must still be within the DropBox to allow it to append the As-Built data. If you or we experience an issue, we have the ability – with your express permission – to take a copy of a HOT2000 file or a StepCode Compliance report for troubleshooting purposes. We will only do this with your express permission. Once the issue is resolved, we will destroy any copies of your data.

Where do you process my data?

In keeping compliant with BC data privacy laws, our backend systems are all hosted here in Canada. We use a Canadian-hosted instance of Amazon Web Services for hosting our applications and a Canadian-hosted database. (The only file data that we retain is File IDs for billing and for tracking usage.)
