LAST UPDATED: February 23, 2026

Earning your trust is important to PhoneBox Network Ltd. operating as PhoneBox (“PhoneBox,” “we,” “us,” or “our”). One way we earn your trust is through our commitment to protecting your personal information and privacy.

This PhoneBox Privacy & Security Policy (“Privacy Policy”) is provided to help you understand the types of information we collect when you use our wireless products and services (our “Service” or “Services”), visit our websites and online portals (including phoneboxmobile.com and any pages where this Privacy Policy is posted or linked), use our mobile apps (if applicable), or otherwise contact or interact with PhoneBox or our online properties, features, platforms, and tools where this Privacy Policy appears or is linked (our “Site” or “Sites”). It describes how we collect, use, and disclose your information and your rights regarding your information.

PhoneBox provides wireless Services as a mobile virtual network operator (MVNO) on the T-Mobile network. Certain information must be shared with our underlying network and operational partners to activate and deliver wireless service (e.g., provisioning, routing, network troubleshooting, and regulatory compliance).

This Privacy Policy should be read together with our Wireless Customer Agreement, which governs your use of our Sites and Services. (You can request a copy by contacting us using the information in How to Contact Us below.)

Certain terms used in this Privacy Policy that are not capitalized or otherwise defined can be found in the Definitions section.

If you are a California resident or live in a U.S. state with a similar comprehensive privacy law, you may have additional privacy rights with respect to the personal information we collect about you.

We may collect information directly from you when you interact with us, for example, when you register for an account, use our Services, visit or engage with our Sites, contact customer support, or through our marketing efforts (including contests, sweepstakes, surveys, or promotions).

2.2 Information We Automatically or Passively Collect from You

When you visit our Sites or otherwise interact with us online, we may automatically or passively collect information about you through network technology and advertising tools such as cookies, web beacons, pixel tags, log files, SDKs, or other technologies.

See Cookies for more information about our use of cookies and how to manage cookie preferences. Where required by law, you can opt out of the “sale” or “sharing” of personal information by using the “Do Not Sell or Share My Personal Information” link at the bottom of our website (or by contacting us using the methods in How to Contact Us if that link is not available in your context).

2.3 Information We Receive from Third Parties

We may collect information about you from third parties, such as: credit information/history (where applicable and permitted), marketing lists from partners, risk scores from vendors to help identify fraud, commercially available demographic and interest-based information from third-party data providers, and information from “refer a friend” or similar programs.

We may obtain information from third-party sources including device manufacturers, device protection and warranty providers, retailers, fulfillment providers, and other service providers. Third parties are independent companies; their handling of your information is governed by their own privacy policies.

We may also receive information from social media platforms through your public profile, posts, and other online interactions (for example, if you “like” us, mention PhoneBox, or reach out to us). The information we receive from these third parties is governed by the privacy policies of the applicable platforms, and we encourage you to review them before submitting information on those platforms.

3. How We Use Your Information

We collect the categories of information described in Personal Information We Collect to provide, maintain, and improve our Sites and Services, to promote our products and Services, and to communicate with you, for the following purposes.

3.1 Provide Our Services

Routing calls, delivering text messages, and managing your data connection.

Invoicing and billing for products or Services, shipping items (if applicable), processing payments, and managing your account. (We use Moneris as a payment processor for certain transactions.)

Providing customer support, helping resolve technical issues, and improving customer service.

3.2 Maintain and Improve Our Sites and Services

Managing Service delivery, maintaining and improving coverage and performance (including working with our underlying network partners as needed).

Auditing and improving our Sites and Services; analyzing usage patterns; understanding how you use our Sites and Services; personalizing your experience; and developing new Sites and Services.

Analyzing and improving marketing campaigns.

3.3 Promote Our Services, Send Marketing and Other Communications

Contacting you about Service updates and other important account-related issues (informational or transactional communications) by email and text message.

Responding to inquiries and assisting with operational requests such as password resets.

Sending marketing communications, offers, and promotions to you where permitted. You may have the right to opt out of certain marketing communications via email and text message as described in Marketing Communications, Sweepstakes and Contests.

Personalizing your online experience by providing personalized content or showing relevant advertisements on other websites or mobile apps, where permitted. You may have the right to opt out of certain personalization or advertisements as described in Cookies.

3.4 Comply with Legal Obligations & Prevent Fraud

Security and fraud prevention; protecting your account and our Services from misuse or abuse; and protecting the safety of customers and others.

Complying with applicable laws, legal processes, and government requests; enforcing legal rights; and enforcing our terms, agreements, and policies.

We may employ artificial intelligence or automated processing or systems, including profiling technology, to detect and prevent fraud and secure our Sites and Services. Unless we notify you separately, we do not process your personal information for “profiling” in furtherance of “decisions that produce legal or similarly significant effects,” as such terms are defined under applicable law.

3.5 Analytics, Profiling, and Automated Decision-Making

We use analytics and profiling (automated processing of personal information to analyze, evaluate, or predict preferences, behavior, or needs) to operate, secure, and improve our Services. This includes evaluating information such as account details, device identifiers, service-usage patterns, network and performance data, and customer-interaction history.

We use these tools to help:

detect and prevent fraud or security risks,

verify account activity,

support customer service,

maintain and troubleshoot service performance, and

improve quality and functionality of products and Services.

We may also use analytics to tailor certain communications or to measure or deliver advertising where permitted by law.

Where U.S. state law defines or treats profiling as part of automated decision-making or targeted advertising, we provide the disclosures and rights required by applicable law. These may include the right to request information about categories of personal information used in profiling, the right to access information about outcomes of profiling, the right to appeal or seek human review of a decision (where applicable), and the right to opt out of targeted advertising or profiling to the extent permitted by law.

We do not rely solely on automated systems to make decisions that deny or restrict access to core wireless Services.

We use customer proprietary network information (CPNI) only as permitted by federal law. We do not use call-detail or similar CPNI data for marketing non-communications Services without appropriate consent. Please see Our Obligations and Your Rights Related to CPNI for more information.

Where U.S. state law provides rights to opt out of the use of personal information for targeted advertising, profiling, or the sale or sharing of personal information — including through browser signals such as the Global Privacy Control (GPC) — you may exercise those rights by using the “Do Not Sell or Share My Personal Information” link (where available) or by enabling an authorized preference signal in your browser. Please see Global Privacy Control for more information.

4. How We Disclose/Share Your Information

While we do not sell your personal information in exchange for monetary consideration, we may disclose the categories of information described in Personal Information We Collect to certain third parties in support of our business operations. Under U.S. state privacy laws (including the California Consumer Privacy Act of 2018, as amended by the California Privacy Rights Act of 2020, the “CCPA”), certain disclosures may be considered a “sale” or “sharing” of personal information even if no money changes hands.

The categories of information we may disclose depend on the types of third parties and their relationship with us. We may disclose your information for business purposes, including to the following third parties.

4.1 Service Providers

We use service providers to provide, improve, and maintain our Sites and Services. We disclose information to third parties who perform services at our request or on our behalf so we or they can provide requested products and Services. Service providers are contractually required to protect information and only use it to provide services to us according to our instructions or as otherwise agreed in our contracts.

Examples of services include:

Billing, invoicing, shipping and delivering products, fulfilling orders or requested Services.

Processing payments and transactions (including Moneris, where applicable).

Sending communications and providing customer support functions.

Examples of business partners include:

Wireless network infrastructure providers and underlying network partners required to deliver our Services (including the T-Mobile network and related providers).

Device manufacturers, device protection and warranty providers, and device financing companies (if applicable).

Retailers and other third parties for order fulfillment (if applicable).

Membership affiliations or partner programs (if applicable) for promotion administration or marketing.

4.3 Marketing & Advertising Companies

We may disclose or allow certain third-party advertising and analytics companies to collect information when you visit our Sites, use our Services, or otherwise interact with us online. This may include cookies, web beacons, pixel tags, log files, SDKs, and similar technologies.

These companies may combine information we provide with information they have to provide relevant advertising. We may disclose information to:

Digital advertising platforms for serving cross-context behavioral or targeted advertising (where permitted).

Marketing companies for promotional campaigns.

Analytics providers for our Sites and Services.

4.4 Legal Compliance

Disclosing information pursuant to your request, direction, or instruction.

5. Our Obligations and Your Rights Related to CPNI

As a telecommunications provider, PhoneBox collects Customer Proprietary Network Information (CPNI), which receives special legal protection under federal law.

CPNI includes:

Information about the quantity, technical configuration, type, destination, location, and amount of use of your telecommunications services.

Billing information related to telecommunications services.

Call detail records (CDRs) showing phone numbers you call and receive calls from, along with date, time, and duration.

Data usage patterns and technical service configuration.

Network performance information related to your specific service.

CPNI does not include:

Your name, address, and listed phone number.

Text message content.

Data usage content (i.e., specific internet browsing content).

Subscriber list information.

Marketing and promotional preferences.

Customer support interaction records.

Confidentiality of CPNI

Under federal telecommunications law, PhoneBox must treat CPNI confidentially and cannot share it without your consent except in specific circumstances, including:

To protect our rights and property or prevent fraudulent or unlawful use.

For billing, collection, and providing Services to you.

To provide emergency information to law enforcement where permitted.

As otherwise required by law.

We will not disclose CPNI to you until you have provided your password or other permissible authentication measures.

Your Rights Related to CPNI

You have the right to restrict our use of CPNI for marketing purposes. We may use your CPNI to offer communications-related Services, subject to your right to opt out of the use of CPNI for marketing purposes.

You can submit a CPNI marketing opt-out request by contacting us using the information in How to Contact Us.

6. Marketing Communications, Sweepstakes and Contests

In accordance with our Wireless Customer Agreement, you may consent to receive marketing emails and text messages from us sent to your email address and phone number.

You may choose to limit or revoke consent as follows:

Unsubscribe from email communications by following the unsubscribe link within our emails.

Reply “STOP” to any marketing text message.

Contact us by email or phone using the information in How to Contact Us.

We will process opt-out requests as soon as reasonably possible and within the time periods required by applicable law. Opting out of marketing communications does not affect your Services and does not prevent us from sending non-promotional messages related to your account, transactions, customer support, security, or our ongoing business relationship with you.

If you participate in sweepstakes, contests, or promotions, we may require information such as name, postal address, phone number, and email to administer the promotion, contact winners, and send offers where permitted. Official rules may treat personal information differently than this Privacy Policy; please review the rules for each promotion.

7. How Long We Keep Your Information

We retain different categories of personal information for different time periods based on business needs, legal requirements, and regulatory obligations, unless a specific retention period is mandated or permitted by applicable law.

Our contracts with service providers require that they retain personal information only for the duration necessary to fulfill the purposes described in the contract.

8. How We Protect Your Personal Information

We have implemented administrative, organizational, technical, and physical measures designed to protect your information from unauthorized access or improper use.

No security measures are perfect, and we cannot guarantee your personal information will never be disclosed in a manner inconsistent with this Privacy Policy due to unauthorized or unlawful acts by third parties. If that occurs, we will notify you in accordance with applicable law.

The information we collect is stored on servers located in the United States (“U.S.”). Physical and logical access to databases and servers is restricted to employees, service providers, business partners, and third parties who have a legitimate need to know for the business purposes described in How We Use Your Information. They may only process personal information on our instructions or as agreed in our contracts.

9. Third-Party Applications, Links to Third-Party Sites and User Submissions

When using our Services, you may choose to install, access, or use services offered by third parties. By using, playing, or downloading third-party applications, you agree to be bound by the terms of service for those applications. Third parties may use tracking technologies (cookies, etc.) to collect information and may collect location/geolocation data. We encourage you to review third-party privacy policies.

Our Sites may contain links to third-party websites. This Privacy Policy does not apply to those third parties, and PhoneBox does not control or take responsibility for their content or privacy/security practices.

We may provide places where you can post information, upload content (pictures, video, audio), and post comments or reviews. You are responsible for the content you share. If you disclose personal information on publicly viewable pages, that information may be public and may be collected and used by others. Once you post information, you may not be able to edit or delete it.

10. Information Obtained From Children

Our Services are not intended for children or minors, and we do not knowingly collect information from anyone under eighteen (18) years of age. If you believe your child has provided personal information to us, please contact us using the information in How to Contact Us, and we will work to delete the information in accordance with applicable law.

11. Cookies

When you visit our Sites, we store and retrieve information on your device’s browser in the form of cookies (small data files downloaded when you visit a website), web beacons, tracking pixels, and similar technologies (collectively, “Cookies”). Cookies help websites remember preferences and track how you use the Site.

You can disable some types of Cookies by turning them off in your browser settings. Because we respect your privacy, and to comply with state-level privacy laws, you can choose not to allow some types of Cookies. Blocking some Cookies may impact your experience.

For more information about Cookies we use and how to manage settings, use the “Do Not Sell or Share My Personal Information” link at the bottom of our website (where available) and/or adjust browser controls. You may also enable the Global Privacy Control (GPC) signal on a compatible browser.

11.1 Types of Cookies

First-party Cookies are set by PhoneBox and are commonly required for functionality and security.

Third-party Cookies are set by partners and service providers to provide analytics and serve relevant advertising/marketing. Third-party Cookies may be governed by each third party’s privacy policy.

11.2 Cookie Classifications

We may use:

Strictly Necessary Cookies

Necessary for the Sites to function and cannot be switched off. Usually set in response to actions such as setting privacy preferences, logging in, or filling out forms. These do not store personal information and are always active.

Functional Cookies

Enable enhanced functionality and personalization. If you do not allow these, some services may not function properly. Like Strictly Necessary Cookies, Functional Cookies do not store personal information.

Performance Cookies

Allow us to count visits and traffic sources to measure and improve performance. If you do not allow these, we may not know when you visited our Sites or be able to monitor performance effectively.

Targeting Cookies

Set by advertising partners or social media services. They can track your browser across websites and are used to build a profile of your interests, show relevant ads, and enable social sharing tools. If you do not allow these, you may see less targeted advertising and some social tools may not work.

You can opt out of certain targeted advertising by using industry tools such as those provided by the Digital Advertising Alliance (DAA) and Network Advertising Initiative (NAI), or by using our website controls (including “Do Not Sell or Share,” where applicable).

11.3 Do Not Track

Some browsers transmit a “Do Not Track” signal. We do not currently respond to “Do Not Track” signals because no uniform industry standard has been adopted.

11.4 Global Privacy Control

Our Sites support Global Privacy Control (GPC) where required by applicable law. GPC is a browser-based opt-out preference signal that communicates your request to opt out from the “sale” or “sharing” of personal information or processing for “targeted advertising.” You can learn how to set up GPC through your browser or extensions that support it.

12. International Transfers

PhoneBox is based in the U.S., and information we and our service providers collect is governed by U.S. law, which may differ from laws where you are located. We do not intend to offer Services to residents of countries other than the U.S. Your access to and use of our Sites constitutes your consent to transfer, processing, use, sharing, and storage of your information in the U.S. and in other countries where our service providers may process data, consistent with this Privacy Policy.

13. State-Specific Privacy Disclosures
