What Information We Collect and How We Use It
Location Information
We collect location information in order to improve your shopping experience. If you shop for location-specific products such as a wireless rate plan, we ask for a zip code and record this information via a cookie so that we may display only services which are available in your area. We also save this information so that we don't have to ask for it again on your next visit.
Information from IP addresses is used to help administer our Web site, to examine overall traffic trends, and to help us improve our site and make your browsing and purchasing experience more enjoyable. IP addresses are not linked to any personally identifiable information.
Personally Identifiable Information
When you place an order for products or services we collect certain types of personally identifiable information required to fulfill those products or services, including (1) contact information (such as name, address, e-mail address, and telephone number); (2) payment information (such as credit card number); and/or (3) ID verification information (such as credit card number, date of birth, Social Security Number, or Driver's License Number).
We only collect ID verification information if it is required by a wireless carrier to process your application. For those customers applying for a new wireless service account, we submit your data into the wireless carrier's system so that the carrier may perform a standard industry credit check. Aside from approval status information, we do not have access to an applicant's credit-history information.
If you would like to place an order but are reluctant to provide this information online, you may provide it to us by telephone during normal business hours. Telephone agents are available when the Order By Phone button is visible on one of the shopping pages of our site. Simply click on this button to speak to an agent and provide your information over the phone.
We use the contact information you provide to communicate with you, such as to send you order confirmations, respond to your inquires, provide you with important product update, warranty, or safety information. In addition, we use contact information you provide to offer you additional products, programs or services that we believe may be of interest to you, including newsletters from wireoffers.com. You can easily opt out of a newsletter by clicking the unsubscribe link at the bottom of any of these e-mails.
Supplementation of Information
We may, from time to time, supplement the information we collect online with outside records (e.g., information from our strategic partners, wireless providers, or the United States Postal Service) to enhance our ability to serve you, to tailor our content to you, and to offer you opportunities to purchase products or services that we believe may be of interest to you.
Sharing of Your Information
Please be assured that any third parties who have access to the contact information you provide, including our agents, contractors and business affiliates have agreed to protect it in a manner that is consistent with this privacy policy.
To fulfill your requests for products and services, we may need to share some of your personally identifiable information with the wireless provider from which you have requested service. More specifically, when you place an order for a new wireless account, we will share contact and ID verification information required by the wireless carrier to provide you with its services. The wireless provider may use this information for credit approval, service activation, and from time to time, for its own marketing purposes. You should consult the wireless providers' respective privacy policies, as this Notice does not cover their use of your information. Also, your shipping information will be shared with a shipping company such as FedEx, for the purposes of delivering your order.
We work closely with trusted third party business affiliates to provide you with information on products and services that may be of interest to you. We may share the contact information you provide with trusted third parties for the purposes of analyzing it to make your customer experience better or for offering products and services to you. In addition, you can access SelectiveMobile through many third-party co-branded Web sites. For example, if you see a logo on the page that says "Powered by SelectiveMobile," you are on a co-branded page. Whenever you provide contact information on a co-branded page, that data may be shared with the third-party site through which you access SelectiveMobile. We encourage you to read the privacy policies of such third parties, as this Notice does not cover their use of your information.
Live Help Function
To better serve you and respond to your questions regarding our products or services, we also maintain a Live Help function through which we can respond, in real time, to your questions about our products and services. This information enables us to understand the types of questions our users have about our products and services so that we may continue to improve our content and offerings.

We may collect certain non-personally identifiable information about our visitors when you visit many of our Web pages such as the type of browser you are using (e.g., Netscape, Internet Explorer), the type of operating system you are using, (e.g., Windows XP or Mac OS) and the domain name of your Internet service provider (e.g., America Online, Earthlink).
We use the non-personally identifiable information that we collect to improve the design and content of our service pages and to enable us to personalize your Internet experience. We also may use this information in the aggregate to analyze service usage.
Legal Process/Disclaimer
We may disclose personally identifiable information in response to legal process or when we believe in good faith that the law requires it, for example, in response to a court order, subpoena or a law enforcement agency's request.
Choices/Opt Out
If you prefer not to receive marketing information, including emails from us, or wish to fully deactivate your account information from our records if you are no longer an active customer, simply let us know. Please note that even if you choose to opt out of marketing programs, if you are an active customer we will continue to send you important service-related communications (e.g., order confirmation or product safety information) which is not promotional in nature.
