Boost Infinite Privacy Policy

Updated on: December 13, 2022. 

 

Before we get started, we’d like to point out that some terms in this Policy are defined in The Deal at boostinfinite.com/terms. You need to review those to make sure we’re on the same page.

 

The point of this policy is to be transparent about what we’re doing with your data.

 

In general, this Privacy Policy ("Policy") describes how we will collect, access, use, or disclose your personal information when you use your Phone or our Services and websites.  Keep in mind that some Products and Services may be covered by different privacy policies, so the product or service-specific policy will apply.

 

California Notice at Collection of Personal Information.  We outline the personal information we collect under the “What Personal Information Do We Collect” for the purposes described under the “How Boost Infinite Uses Personal Information” section.  You can learn more about your California privacy rights, including your right to opt out of the sale of personal information, in the “Your California Privacy Rights” section below.

 

What Personal Information Do We Collect?

 

Ways you may give us information include when you sign up for, register, or use your Phone and Services, or communicate with Customer Care.  For starters, we collect things like your:

  • Name
  • Postal address
  • Telephone number
  • Email
  • Birthdate
  • Social security number or other government identification number
  • Demographic information
  • Activities
  • Location information
  • Personal preferences

We use the contact information you provide to let you know if your order fails, to provide you with updates regarding your current Phone or Service, and to provide you with information about any promotions or special offers we’ve got going on.  We also use it to notify you of certain things.  Some of the reasons we might do this are described elsewhere in the Deal.

 

Also, this Policy will apply to any personal information you give us for entry into a contest, giveaway, or other promotions, unless the rules say otherwise.

 

If you use our Services or websites to access services provided by others (stuff like social media or other apps), then those providing the services might also collect information.  If they do collect any personal information from you, their privacy policy will apply.

 

 

Information We Automatically Collect.  We automatically collect certain types of information including:

  • Phone Information such as device type, operating system version, signal strength, whether it's on, and how it's functioning.
  • Data about how you use our Products and Services, like call and data usage and history, your location, websites you visit, app purchases and downloads, etc.

This stuff helps us hone our Services by taking a look at how people are actually using them.

 

We may use systems or tools to follow your use of our Products and Services and other applications.  Some examples are cookies (small pieces of data stored within a web browser), web beacons (used to check if a user has accessed certain content), and other mechanisms.  We may also analyze certain information about your use of our network and your Phone.

 

For example, we allow collection by analytic service provider(s) of site click-stream (where and what you click on while on our website) and cookie data to help track use of our Products and Services.  We also use cookies to enable features on our sites, like the ability to save your shopping cart or set preferences.  Advertisers and ad networks that advertise on our sites may also use their own tools, including cookies, web beacons and other technologies.  The privacy policies of the advertisers and not this Policy apply to those third-party technologies. 

 

We may link information we automatically collect with other personal information, such as information you give us at registration and checkout. This helps us get a better picture of how you use our Services.

 

Information From Other Sources.  We may get information about you from outside sources, including public sources, and combine it with your account information.  For example, we often receive information from the retailer that you purchased your Phone from before you started your Service.  We also may use demographic and marketing information we get from third parties to help us better serve you or tell you about products or services we think might interest you.
