TouchTone is committed to protecting your privacy. This Privacy Policy (the “Policy”) governs how we treat the Personal Information that we collect and receive from you in connection with your use of our website, www.touchtone.net, as well as any other programs (including online payment/E-Bill and SMS notifications). TouchTone reserves the right, in its sole discretion, to modify or change this Policy at any time with or without prior notice to you. The date of the last update will be posted at the top of this Policy for your convenience. This Policy, and any changes, are effective as soon as posted. Your continued use of the Service following the posting of any changes to the Policy constitutes your full acceptance of those changes. WHAT PERSONAL IDENTIFYING INFORMATION WE COLLECT, HOW WE USE IT AND HOW YOU CAN CONTROL ITS USE We may collect personal information from you through various ways including a web form, during registration, activating a service, while setting up an account with us, or when you contact us for support. Personal information we collect may include name, address, e-mail address, telephone number, billing, payment, usage, credit and transaction information (including credit card numbers, account numbers), in addition to demographic information. We also collect personal identifying information that our web visitors choose to provide to us (e.g., name, address, telephone number, e-mail address) when registering on our websites, ordering TouchTone offered products or services, sending us e-mail correspondence, responding to our surveys, entering contests or sweepstakes, or in connection with online ordering or billing functions. We use the personal identifying information to provide, confirm, change, bill, monitor and resolve problems with the quality of TouchTone offered products and services. We also use the personal identifying information of a customer or web visitor to develop, market and sell our products and services. We may aggregate the personal identifying information of different customers or web visitors to produce data about a group or category of services, customers or web visitors. For example, we might use aggregate data about the types of services our customers have generally purchased at the same time in order to develop attractive bundled service offerings. Such aggregate data, however, will not reflect any personal identifying information of any specific customer or web visitor. We do not provide personal identifying information to third parties for the marketing of their products and services without your consent. We may also provide personal identifying information to third parties who perform functions or services on our behalf. Examples include shipping companies who deliver TouchTone products; TouchTone authorized agents who market and sell TouchTone offered products and services on our behalf; and Web site development or advertising companies, who provide Web design, analysis and advertising services. When we provide such personal identifying information to third parties to perform such functions or services on our behalf, we require that they protect personal identifying information consistent with this policy and do not allow them to use such information for other purposes. We may, where permitted or required by law, provide personal identifying information to third parties (including credit bureaus or collection agencies) without your consent: To obtain payment for TouchTone offered products and services, enforce or apply our customer agreements, and/or protect our rights or property. To comply with court orders, subpoenas, or other legal or regulatory requirements. To prevent unlawful use of communications or other services, to assist in repairing network outages, and when a call is made to 911 from a customer phone and information regarding the caller's location is transmitted to a public safety agency. To notify a responsible governmental entity if we reasonably believe that an emergency involving immediate danger of death or serious physical injury to any person requires or justifies disclosure without delay. A customer's name and telephone number may also be transmitted and displayed on a Caller ID device unless the customer has elected to block such information. Caller ID Blocking does not prevent the display of the number when you dial certain business numbers, 911, 900 numbers or toll-free 800, 888, 877 or 866 numbers. For more information, contact TouchTone Customer Service at 800-266-4006. "DO NOT CALL" LISTS We comply with all applicable laws and regulations regarding "Do Not Call" lists. These laws generally permit companies to contact their own customers even though such customers are listed on the federal and, in some instances, state "Do Not Call" lists. Residential consumers may request that they be removed from TouchTone's telemarketing lists at any time, including when a TouchTone marketing and promotional call is received or by contacting a TouchTone Customer Service Representative. Where required by state laws and/or regulations, we also honor requests from business customers to be removed from our telemarketing lists. CUSTOMER PROPRIETARY NETWORK INFORMATION In the normal course of providing telecommunications services to our customers, we collect and maintain certain customer proprietary network information, also known as "CPNI". Your CPNI includes the types of telecommunications services you currently purchase, how you use them and related billing information for those services. Your telephone number, name and address are not CPNI. Protecting the confidentiality of your CPNI is your right and our duty under federal law. We do not sell, trade or share your CPNI - including your calling records - with anyone outside of TouchTone or with anyone not authorized to represent us to offer our products or services, or to perform functions on our behalf except as may be required by law or authorized by you. As a general rule, we are permitted to use CPNI in our provision of telecommunications services you purchase, including billing and collections for those services. We are permitted to use or disclose CPNI to offer telecommunications services of the same type that you already purchase from us. We may also use or disclose your CPNI for legal or regulatory reasons such as a court order, to investigate fraud or to protect against the unlawful use of our telecommunications network and services and to protect other users.

HOW WE PROTECT YOUR INFORMATION All TouchTone employees are subject to the TouchTone Code of Business Conduct and certain state-mandated codes of conduct. The TouchTone Code requires all our employees to follow every law, rule, regulation, court and/or commission order that applies to our business at all times. In addition, the Code specifically requires compliance with legal requirements and company policies related to the privacy of communications and the security and privacy of customer records. Employees who fail to meet any of the standards embodied in the Code of Business Conduct may be subject to disciplinary action, up to and including dismissal. We employ security measures designed to protect against unauthorized access to or unauthorized alteration, disclosure or destruction of data, including personal identifying information. We have implemented technology and security features and strict policy guidelines to safeguard the privacy of your personal identifying information, and we will continue to enhance our security procedures as new technology becomes available. For example: We maintain and protect the security of our servers and we typically require user names and passwords to access sensitive data. We use industry standard encryption methods to protect your data transmission unless you authorize unencrypted transmission. We limit access to personal identifying information to those employees, contractors, and agents who need access to such information to operate, develop, or improve our services and products. If we determine that a security breach has occurred and that such breach creates a risk of identity theft or service disruption, we will make reasonable attempts to notify you.
