The BCM One Privacy Policy (“Privacy Policy”) is designed to assist you—businesses, consumers and the general public—in understanding how we collect personal information about you (“Personal Information”) through our websites and how that information may be used, maintained and, in some cases, shared. By visiting our websites or otherwise providing BCM One with Personal Information by any means, you accept and consent to the practices described in this Privacy Policy.

Information We Collect and How We Collect It

There are a variety of ways that we collect information about you:

When visiting a BCM One website, we may collect some information directly from you when you provide it to us, and we may collect other information gathered on a collective basis as you browse the website.

BCM One collects several types of information from and about users of our websites, including information by which you may be personally identified, such as name, postal address, e-mail address, telephone number or any other identifier by which you may be contacted online or offline, and anonymous information that is about you but does not individually identify you, such as usage details, IP addresses, and information collected through cookies and other tracking technologies. We collect this information directly from you when you provide it to us automatically as you navigate through the site, and from third parties such as our business partners.

When you communicate with us, we may monitor or record the interaction to help us better serve you, to train or otherwise support employees, resources or systems, and for security purposes.

Through chats and blogs

Some of our websites offer publicly accessible blogs or community forums. You should be aware that any information you provide in these areas may be read, collected and used by others who access them. To request removal of your Personal Information from our blog or community forum, contact us at privacypolicy@bcmone.com. In some cases, we may not be able to remove your Personal Information, in which case we will let you know if we are unable to do so and why.

We use live chat on some of our websites to assist you with questions about our products. If our live chat is offline, we will collect your name and email address so that we may reply to your request.

Does BCM One Share My Information?

BCM One will never sell your personal information. We will only share information within our company, with vendors and partners, and as described in this section.

We share information within BCM One

We share information within BCM One for a variety of purposes, including providing you with the latest information about our products and services and offering you our latest promotions. You can limit the sharing of Customer Proprietary Network Information and certain credit information if you do not want us to use them to market services to you that are different from the ones you have.

Customer Proprietary Network Information

Customer Proprietary Network Information (“CPNI”) is information that relates to the type, quantity, destination, technical configuration, location, amount of use and related

billing information of your telecommunications or interconnected Voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP) services. Federal law governs our use and sharing of CPNI. For more information, see our CPNI policy here.

We share information with Vendors and Partners

We use vendors and partners to help us offer, provide, repair, restore and bill for services. We share information with them as necessary for them to perform work for us. They are required to protect information they receive from us, or collect on our behalf, and can use it only for the purpose for which we provide it. We also share de-identified information with companies to assist with the delivery of advertising campaigns or aggregate reports.

When you purchase services that are offered by BCM One and one of our underlying service providers, both parties may receive your information. When this is the case, you should also review the particular service provider’s privacy policy because it may describe uses of your information that are different from ours.

Directory Listings and other Telephony Services

Your name and number may be transmitted and displayed on a Caller ID device, unless you have elected to block such information. Please note that Caller ID Blocking does not prevent the display of your number when you dial certain business numbers, 911, 900 numbers, or toll-free 8XX numbers.

We share information with Law Enforcement

We will disclose Personal Information to comply, when required by law, with court or administrative orders, civil or criminal subpoenas, warrants from law enforcement agencies, federal or state regulatory requirements, mandatory governmental audits, E911 reporting requirements, grand jury investigations, civil or criminal governmental investigations, or reporting required by the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children (designated by federal law as a reporting mechanism for child pornography).

We will also disclose Personal Information to appropriate law enforcement, 911 centers, or emergency services when we, in good faith, believe the disclosure is necessary to protect a person, us, or the public from an immediate threat of serious harm.

We share information with credit and collection agencies

For example, to communicate with credit bureaus or collection agencies for determining credit risk, for reporting purposes and to obtain payment for BCM One-billed products and services.

Sale of Business

We reserve the right to transfer information (including your Personal Data) to a third party in the event of a sale, merger, liquidation, receivership, or transfer of all or substantially all of the assets of our company provided that the third party agrees to adhere to the terms of the Privacy Policy and provided that the third party only uses your Personal Data for the purposes that you provided it to us. You will be notified in the event of any such transfer, and you will be afforded an opportunity to opt-out.

Security

BCM One maintains and protects the security of our servers and your personal information. To secure the information we collect from you, to prevent unauthorized access, maintain data accuracy and ensure only appropriate use of information, BCM One has established appropriate physical, electronic and management safeguards, like usernames and passwords, to access sensitive data. Unless unencrypted transmission is authorized, BCM One will use industry encryption methods to protect data transmission. Note that no security practice is foolproof and BCM One cannot guarantee the security of its systems or databases, nor will BCM One guarantee that information supplied by you will not be intercepted during transmission. BCM One is not responsible for the unlawful or unauthorized actions of third parties. BCM One suggests that you backup all of its data on a regular basis.

If you have reason to believe that a child under the age of 16 has provided Personal Information to us through our website or other service, please contact us at privacypolicy@bcmone.com, and we will use commercially reasonable efforts to delete that information.
