Your information may be collected by Telzio or by a third party, such as a co-sponsor or a vendor involved in, or providing services in connection with, a Special Promotion, or an e-commerce partner in the case of a Purchase.

    If you make a Purchase or enter a sweepstakes or other Special Promotion on one of our sites or through our Services, Telzio will collect your personally identifiable information, and you are deemed to consent to us providing your information to third parties who provide certain services such as processing of credit card transactions, customer service, promotion or sweepstakes administration, order fulfillment and/or prize delivery, as applicable. (As more fully described below in Section XII, these third parties are generally prohibited from using this information for their own marketing purposes and/or from sharing, selling, or otherwise distributing any personal data of our customers, unless you choose to opt in for such additional uses and/or disclosure by the third parties, under their respective privacy policies.). Also, by entering a sweepstakes or other Special Promotion, you are agreeing to the official rules that govern that sweepstakes or other Special Promotion, which may contain specific provisions applicable to you, including, except where prohibited by law, allowing the sponsor(s) of the promotion to use your name, voice or likeness in advertising or marketing associated with the promotion.

    If you make a purchase or enter a promotion (such as a sweepstakes) in which Telzio is participating on a third party's website (or through some other means or medium), we will collect your information from the third party only if you opt-in to receive additional communications from us, or we are required to fulfill some function in relation to your activity (e.g., to send your order or deliver a prize).

    If you submit to the Website a comment, photograph or other content to be published, online or offline (including on-air, in a DVD, or any other format), we may publish your name or other personally identifiable information in connection with publishing the content and you are hereby deemed to give us permission to do such.

  6. Information Collected by Other Means or Media.

Likewise, if you use our software, or provide information to other companies who share information about their customers, we may collect additional information about you. In each of these cases, Telzio will apply this Privacy Policy to any personally identifiable information.

  7. Information About Other People.

    Some Telzio Websites and Services may ask you to submit personally identifiable, as well as other information about other people and/or their affiliated companies. Such information may be used to facilitate transactions among those people, and third parties. As such, such information may be shared and used by all such parties to the extent Telzio desires or otherwise allows such information to be shared. You are hereby accepting and agreeing to such use and sharing of information.

  8. Customer Service.

    Some Services may offer support and technical assistance through customer service centers via telephone, online chat, or e-mail. Whenever you communicate with customer service, you do so with the understanding that an operator may view and make changes to the information in your User Account in order to provide the assistance that you need.

  9. Non-Personally Identifiable Information That We Collect.

    As part of the registration process for some Services, you may be asked to provide information that does not personally identify you. For example, you may be asked to provide information concerning your personal preferences, purchasing habits, and the like. This information is generally optional but may be included in your User Account profile. Telzio requests this information to understand you better and to also bring to your attention new services, programs, or offers that may be of interest to you.

    In many cases, Telzio will automatically collect certain non-personally identifiable information about your use of the Websites and Services. Telzio might collect, among other things, information concerning the type of Internet browser or computer operating system you are using, the domain name of your Internet service provider, your "click path" through the Telzio sites or "click-through" from an e-mail, the Website or advertisement that was linked to or from the Telzio site when you visited, and your IP address. To do this, Telzio may use cookies and other technology (see below). If you are using any Services of ours that are wireless, we may also automatically collect information such as the type of wireless device you are using, your mobile identification number (assigned by your telecommunications carrier) and telecommunications carrier. Your use of our Websites and Services, and information provided through these technologies, will be anonymous unless you provide us with personally identifiable information, have provided such information in the past, or have a User Account.

    Information that is in a form that is anonymized, or is otherwise not capable of being associated with you or cannot identify you, is not considered personal data, and as such Telzio reserves the right to use and share such data in its discretion without the limitations set forth in this Privacy Policy. You may choose not to provide Telzio with personal data, but then you may not be able to fully take advantage of certain features of our Services and we may not be able to provide you with certain requested information, products and/or services.

Telzio may use cookies for a number of purposes, such as tracking usage patterns on the Website, measuring the effectiveness of advertising, limiting multiple responses and registrations, facilitating your ability to navigate the Website, providing advertising to you about our products and services or those of third parties on the Website or other websites, and/or as part of a verification or screening process. Most browsers are initially set up to accept cookies. Most browsers will allow you to erase cookies from your computer hard drive, block acceptance of cookies, or receive a warning before a cookie is stored. You should refer to your browser instructions, "Help" screen, or similar such resource to learn more about how to manage cookies and possibly reset your browser to refuse all cookies or to indicate when a cookie is being sent by indicating this in the preferences, options, or similar such menu in your browser.

    Telzio’s web pages may include advertisements for third parties and their products, and those third-party advertisements may include a cookie or web beacon served by the third party. Telzio does not control cookies in such third-party ads, and visitors are encouraged to check the privacy policies of advertisers and/or ad services to learn about their use of cookies and other technology.

Web beacons can be very small and invisible to the user, but, in general, any electronic image viewed as part of a web page or e-mail, including HTML based content, can act as a web beacon. Telzio may use web beacons to count visitors to the web pages on the Website or to monitor how our users navigate the Website, and Telzio may include web beacons in e-mail messages in order to count how many messages sent were actually opened, acted upon or forwarded.

These companies will handle your personally identifiable information in accordance with this Privacy Policy.

      As stated above in Section V, Telzio may also work with third parties to provide some Services on our Websites.

    While Telzio takes reasonable and appropriate precautions to protect your personally identifiable information from unauthorized disclosure and to prevent possible security breaches in our Websites, Services, and customer databases, no website, Internet transmission, computer system, or wireless connection is completely secure. Consequently, Telzio cannot guarantee that unauthorized access, hacking, data loss, or other breaches will never occur. Your use of the Telzio Websites and Services is at your own risk. Telzio urges you to take steps to determine what information you will submit to the Website, keep your information safe by memorizing your password or keeping it in a safe place (separate from your account information), logging out of your User Account, and closing your Web browser.

    Whenever you give Telzio sensitive or confidential information (for example, credit card numbers for Purchases), Telzio will take commercially reasonable steps to protect the transmission of such information by establishing a secure connection with your Web browser. Telzio employs a security technology known as a secure-socket-layer ("SSL") to protect the transmission of payment information to the site.

  14. Hyperlinks To and From Other Sites.

    Telzio sites may frame, and/or contain links to, or advertisements about, non-Telzio Web sites. Other sites may also reference, advertise, or link to Telzio Websites.

    By providing any personally identifiable information to Telzio, all users, including, without limitation, users in the member states of the European Union (“EU”), fully understand and unambiguously consent to this Privacy Policy and to the collection, storage, and processing of such information in the United States of America.

    Regarding processing of your persona data in the EU, the purposes for which we may do so are:

    1. The provision of personal data by you may be necessary for the performance of any contractual relationship we have with you;

    2. Where it is necessary for compliance with our legal obligations laid down by EU law;

    3. Where in our legitimate interests (provided these are not overridden by your interests and fundamental rights and freedoms – this includes our own legitimate interests and those of other entities and branches in our group of companies) such as:

You should be aware that you are entitled under the EU Data Protection Law to withdraw your consent where that has been given, at any time. If you do this and we have no alternative lawful reason to process your personal data, this may affect our ability to provide you with rights to use the Services and the Website.

  16. Contact Us Regarding Privacy.

    Telzio is dedicated to protecting your personally identifiable information and welcomes comments and questions on this Privacy Policy. You may e-mail your questions or comments to:

    privacy@telzio.com

    Please note that information submitted to the Website via a "contact us," "support", "info" or other similar e-mail address or form will not necessarily receive a response. We will not use the information provided to these e-mail addresses or forms for marketing purposes unrelated to your request.

  17. Notification of Changes.

    Telzio reserves the right to change this Privacy Policy and its Terms and Conditions at any time. In case of any material change to the Privacy Policy, we will replace the "Privacy Policy" link on the home page of our sites with a link entitled "Updated Privacy Policy" for no less than 30 days. All changes to the Privacy Policy will be effective when posted, and your continued use of any Telzio Website or Service after the posting will constitute acceptance of, and agreement to be bound by, those changes.

  18. Your California Privacy Rights.

    A California resident who has provided personal information to a business with whom he/she has established a business relationship for personal, family, or household purposes ("California customer") is entitled to request information about whether the business has disclosed personal information to any third parties for the third parties' direct marketing purposes. In general, if the business has made such a disclosure of personal information, upon receipt of a request by a California customer, the business is required to provide a list of all third parties to whom personal information was disclosed in the preceding calendar year, as well as a list of the categories of personal information that were disclosed.

    However, under the law, a business is not required to provide the above-described lists if the business adopts and discloses to the public (in its privacy policy) a policy of not disclosing customer's personal information to third parties for their direct marketing purposes unless the customer first affirmatively agrees to the disclosure, as long as the business maintains and discloses this policy. Rather, the business may comply with the law by notifying the customer of his or her right to prevent disclosure of personal information and providing a cost free means to exercise that right.

    As stated in our Privacy Policy, we do not share information with third parties for their direct marketing purposes unless you affirmatively agree to such disclosure, typically by opting in to receive information from a third party that is participating in a sweepstakes or other promotion on one of our sites. If you do ask us to share your information with a third party for its marketing purposes, we will only share information in connection with that specific promotion, as we do not share information with any third party on a continual basis. To prevent disclosure of your personal information for use in direct marketing by a third party, do not opt in to such use when you provide personally identifiable information on one of our sites. Please note that whenever you opt in to receive future communications from a third party, your information will be subject to the third party's privacy policy. If you later decide that you do not want that third party to use your information, you will need to contact the third party directly, as we have no control over how third parties use information. You should always review the privacy policy of any party that collects your information to determine how that entity will handle your information.

    California customers may request further information about our compliance with this law by e-mailing privacy@telzio.com. Please note that we are only required to respond to one request per customer each year, and we are not required to respond to requests made by means other than through this e-mail address.
