CELLTEL NETWORKS LIMITED
Privacy Policy
Your information and your privacy are important — to you and to us. This policy explains how we use your information and how we keep it safe. Most importantly, it explains the choices you can make at any time about how your information is used.
This Privacy Policy (“Policy”) covers the information generated when you use or subscribe to CELLTEL products, services, apps, websites or networks to which this policy is linked. In the policy, we call them “Products or Services” for short. They include smart devices, voice, data, video, entertainment, advertising, internet and other products, services and apps.
This Policy applies to you and anyone who uses our Products or Services under your account, except where we identify for you that separate privacy policies or terms and conditions apply. You are responsible for making sure all users under your account understand and agree to this Policy.
Here are special circumstances where this Policy may not apply, or may apply in addition to other policies:
Some of our Products or Services may be covered by their own privacy policies or additional privacy terms and conditions.
Some of our affiliates have their own privacy policies that apply to data they collect from products, services and apps they provide. Any data collected subject to this Policy that is shared with those affiliates will still be protected consistent with this Policy.
Some areas both inside and outside of the United States - for example California and the European Union - require us to adopt different policy terms and commitments in accordance with local laws.
In certain cases, when you’re using your CELLTEL Products or Services, other companies may be collecting information, so that your information may be covered by this Policy and other privacy policies at the same time. Here are some examples: if you purchase one of our Products or Services from a retailer; if you use our services to connect to a social networking service or another company’s Wi-Fi network; or if you provide your information to another company through a co-branded website, app or service controlled by the other company. In those cases, any information you provide to those companies may be subject to just their policy, or subject to both their policy and ours.
If you are an CELLTEL business customer, we may have written Product or Service agreements that contain specific provisions about confidentiality, security or handling of information. When one of those agreements differs from or conflicts with this Policy, the terms of those agreements will apply instead.

We work hard to safeguard your data using a range of technological and organizational security controls.
We maintain and protect the security of computer storage and network equipment, and we use security procedures that require employees to authenticate themselves to access sensitive data. We also limit access to personal information only to those with jobs requiring such access. We require callers and online users to authenticate themselves before providing account information.
No security measures are perfect, however. We can’t guarantee that your information will never be disclosed in a manner inconsistent with this Policy. If a breach were to occur, we will notify you as required by applicable law.
