Surge may collect personal and non-personal information from customers based upon our business relationship and the nature of the products and services we provide.

Surge also collects and maintains technical information about the equipment you use with our service including serial numbers, SIM card numbers, etc.

Surge also may collect information that is not customer identifiable. This information includes but is not limited to; the type of Internet browser you are using, the type of operating system you have configured on your computer, and the domain name of the website and/or Internet Service Provider from which you are linked to our website.  Surge primarily uses this information for market research and optimizing its systems in order to deliver the best customer experience possible.

Surge may collect and use customer identifiable information for various purposes, including but not limited to, billing purposes, to provide or change service, to anticipate and resolve problems with your service, or to inform you of products and services that better meet your needs. This means that Surge may use your customer identifiable information in conjunction with information available from other sources, to market new services that may be of interest to you. When Surge uses third parties to perform services on its behalf, such as marketing, fulfillment services and shipping to customers, Surge will request that such third parties protect your customer identifiable information consistently with this privacy policy. Surge will not, however, disclose your customer identifiable information to third parties who want to market products to you without your express, written or equivalent electronic consent. Surge will not sell, trade, or disclose to third parties any customer identifiable information derived from the registration for, or use of, a Surge product or service — including customer names and addresses — without the consent of the customer.

Surge may, however, use and/or disclose customer identifiable information to a third party:

  • to investigate and help prevent potential fraud, other unlawful activity or activity that threatens the network;
  • as required by law, such as to comply with a subpoena, or similar legal process;
  • when we believe in good faith that disclosure is necessary to protect our rights, protect your safety or the safety of others, investigate fraud, or respond to a government request;
  • to any other third party with your prior consent to do so;
  • if Surge is involved in a merger, acquisition, or sale of all or a portion of its assets, you will be notified via a prominent notice on our Website of any change in ownership or uses of your personal information, as well as any choices you may have regarding your personal information.

Surge will retain your information only as long as needed for business, tax and/or legal purposes. We will retain and use your information as necessary to comply with our legal obligations, resolve disputes and enforce our agreements. We will destroy your information once it is no longer needed.

Non Personally Identifiable Information

Children

Surge websites are not structured to attract children under the age of 13. Surge believes there is no information on its websites which are inappropriate or objectionable for viewing by children. Surge does not knowingly, directly or passively collect information from children under the age of 13. Ordering online products and services from Surge is limited to adults (ages 18+). Of course, wireless devices and services purchased for family use may be used by minors without the knowledge of Surge. If that happens, any information collected from the usage will appear to be the personal information of the actual adult subscriber and treated as such under this Policy.

Note: Surge does not have access to the content of private e-mail communications and text messages that are transmitted using Surge services.

Declining e-mail offers

Surge may send customers e-mail regarding promotional offers or other news if a customer grants us permission to do so and provides an email address. A customer has the right to choose not to receive Surge e-mail direct marketing communications by opting-out or unsubscribing. Upon such election, Surge will not contact that customer directly with Surge promotional messages, and will not use customer identifiable information obtained from that customer’s registration to contact that customer with Surge product or service messages.

Security

Surge has implemented technology and security features to safeguard the privacy of your customer identifiable information from unauthorized access or abuse. Surge will continue to enhance its security measures as new technology becomes readily available. However, Surge cannot guarantee 100% security as a matter of policy. Please contact Surge with further questions or concerns regarding the security of the website.
