CPNI does not include subscriber list information such as name, postal address, or telephone number. Under federal law, you have the right, and we have the duty, to protect the confidentiality of your CPNI. When we share your CPNI with our service providers or contractors, we require them to take reasonable measures to protect the confidentiality of that information.

9. How We Store, Retain, AND Protect Personal Information We Collect About You, and How Long We Keep Your Personal Information

Angel Mobile has implemented technology and security features, such as encryption, to safeguard the privacy of your customer specific information from unauthorized access or improper use and will continue to enhance our security measures as technology becomes available. Unfortunately, there is no such thing as foolproof security on the Internet, and therefore, Angel Mobile makes no guarantees with regard to the sufficiency of our security measures.

We will keep your Personal Information as long as necessary to provide your Services, or as otherwise required by federal or state law, subpoena, or court order.

FCC regulations require us to keep:

  • Affordable Connectivity Program (“ACP”) records for as long as an ACP participant receives a discount but no less than six (6) years.
  • 911 call data for two (2) years.

The Personal Information we collect from or about you is stored on servers which we take commercially reasonable efforts to secure in the United States (“U.S.”), subject to the laws of the U.S. Electronic access to the databases and physical access to the servers on which this Personal Information is stored are restricted to those employees, agents, contractors, service providers, and other third parties who have a business need for such access. They will only access and use your Personal Information based on our instructions and they are required to keep your Personal Information confidential. While we take reasonable steps to help ensure the integrity and security of our network and servers, we cannot guarantee their security, nor can we guarantee that your communications and information will not be intercepted while being transmitted over our underlying carrier’s network or the Internet.

Your Personal Information is stored on servers in the U.S.; however, some of our service providers may store information on servers hosted in other countries. As such, your Personal Information may be subject to the laws of other countries, where the data protection and other laws may differ from those of the U.S. Should your Personal Information be transferred to other countries, we will require our service providers to protect your Personal Information. Your Personal Information may be disclosed in response to inquiries or requests from government authorities or to respond to judicial process in the countries in which we operate.

Angel Mobile may assign you a user ID and a password when you as part of your participation and access to the Site and your account. Only you may use your user ID and password. You may not share your user ID and password with anyone else, and you are solely responsible for maintaining and protecting the confidentiality of your user ID and password. You are fully responsible for all activities that occur under your user ID. You play a role in protecting your information as well.

10. Governing Law and Notice to Non-U.S. Residents

Our Services are solely intended for individuals located within the U.S. and its territories and are subject to U.S. law. If you are located outside of the U.S. and its territories, please do not use the Services.

If you do not reside in the U.S. and provide Personal Information to us, please note that your Personal Information will be transferred, processed, collected, used, accessed and/or stored in the U.S. and subject to U.S. laws. The laws in the U.S. may not provide the same protections for your Personal Information as the jurisdiction in which you are located. Do not provide your Personal Information to us if you do not want this information to be transferred or processed outside of your country, or if the laws in your country restrict such transfers.

11. Information from Children

Our Services are not directed toward children, and we do not knowingly collect Personal Information from children under the age of 13 (or under the age of 16 in California).

If you are a minor, please do not provide us with any Personal Information or use or access the Services without receiving your parent’s or guardian’s permission. If we learn that we have collected any Personal Information from a child under the age of 13 (or under the age of 16 in California), we will take steps to delete the information as soon as possible. If you believe that we might have any Personal Information provided by a child under 13 (or under the age of 16 in California), or if you are a parent or guardian of a child under 13 (or under the age of 16 in California) that has provided us with Personal Information without your consent, please contact us via email at support@angel-mobile.com or call us at 646-362-0967 or 888-513-4517.

For clarification, you (as a customer) may provide us information about children within your family, such as school enrollment or school breakfast/lunch documentation, to qualify for the ACP or Lifeline. That information may be collected and stored by our service providers and provided to the Universal Service Administrative Company (USAC).

12. California Resident Privacy Rights

This section explains how we collect, use, and disclose personal information about users, customers, and visitors who reside in California (“consumers” or “you”). It also explains certain rights afforded to consumers under California’s Shine the Light law and the California Consumer Privacy Act of 2018 (“CCPA”), as revised and updated by the California Privacy Rights Act (“CPRA”). This section uses certain terms that have the meaning given to them in the CCPA including personal information. “Personal Information” for purposes of this Privacy Policy is as defined by applicable laws.

Any such contract requires the recipient to both keep that Personal Information confidential and not use it for any purpose except performing the contract.

During the 12-month period prior to the effective date of this Privacy Policy, we have disclosed the categories of Personal Information about you for a business purpose as described in the How We Share or Allow Access to Your Personal Information section above.

12.5 Sale and Sharing of Personal Information

We do not sell or share your Personal Information in exchange for monetary consideration.

However, the definitions of Personal Information, ‘share,’ and ‘sale’ under CCPA are broad. The CCPA defines “sharing” as “communicating orally, in writing, or by electronic or other means, a consumer’s personal information” to “a third party for cross-context behavioral advertising, whether or not for money or other valuable consideration.”  We may share your Personal Information with a third party to help serve personalized content or ads that may be more relevant to your interests, and to perform other advertising-related services such as enabling our partners to serve such personalized content.

We do not knowingly sell or share personal information related to children under 16 years of age.

During the 12-month period prior to the effective date of this Privacy Policy, we have shared the following categories of Personal Information as follows:

Category of Personal Information that May Be Shared Third Parties with Which Personal Information May Be Shared Purpose for Sharing Personal Information

Identifiers, Internet or Other Similar Network Activity

 

We shared device identifiers and internet and electronic network activity to facilitate online advertising. This means that a unique, resettable number that identifies your device was linked to online activity and shared with others who use that data for advertising and analytics purposes (like advertising networks, data analytics providers, and social media platforms).

Third-party advertising companies that collect information about your visit to our Site and apps using cookies and other web technologies

 

Third-party advertising and social media companies to help them better target our advertising on their sites and apps or display our ads to other potential customers using interest segments they create from your activities across non-affiliated sites and apps.

Targeted advertising/Cross contextual advertising
12.6 Use and Disclosure of Sensitive Personal Information

We do not use or disclose sensitive personal information about you except as necessary to provide you with our Services, including processing and fulfilling orders and verifying your information, to prevent fraudulent or illegal actions, and for other purposes that are not for the purpose of inferring characteristics about you.

For purposes of this section, “sensitive personal information” is defined as:

Personal information that reveals:

  • A consumer’s social security, driver’s license, state identification card, or passport number.
  • A consumer’s account log-in, financial account, debit card, or credit card number in combination with any required security or access code, password, or credentials allowing access to an account.
  • A consumer’s precise geolocation.
  • A consumer’s racial or ethnic origin, religious or philosophical beliefs, or union membership.
  • The contents of a consumer’s mail, email, and text messages unless the business is the intended recipient of the communication.

  • The processing of biometric information for the purpose of uniquely identifying a consumer.
  • Personal information collected and analyzed concerning a consumer’s health.
