Instructional Telecommunications Foundation, Inc., and www.missiontelecom.org (“Mission Telecom,” “us,” “we,” or “our”) thank you for visiting the online and mobile resources we publish. We use the words “you” and “your” to mean you, the reader, and other visitors to our online and mobile resources who are, in all cases, over the age of 13. Our privacy statement (“this statement,” “this privacy statement,” and “our statement”) informs you about from whom and the types of personal information we collect, how we use it, who we share it with and why, and what we do to try to protect it.
Online and mobile resources mean the websites and other internet features we own that allow you to interact with our websites, as well as apps we’ve created and distributed to let our customers and followers view our online and mobile resources or otherwise interact with the content we provide.
Who We Collect Personal Information From
We may collect personal information from the following groups of data subjects: visitors to, and users of, our online and mobile resources; our customers; current members of our workforce and those who apply for posted jobs; and third-party vendors and business partners.
Personal information generally means information that can be used to identify you or that can be easily linked to you (for example, your name, address, telephone number, email address, social security number, and date of birth). The privacy laws in some jurisdictions include unique elements in what they consider to be the personal information of the consumers or data subjects they protect. If those laws apply to us, as in the case of the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA) or European General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), our use of the phrase “personal information” includes the unique elements required by such laws.
What We Collect
There are two types of information that we obtain from you online and then store and use:
Non-personal information – collected automatically from each visitor, such as your device operating system, browser type, IP address, and usage data.
Personal information – voluntarily provided to us or collected automatically, including but not limited to name, email address, phone number, and other identifying details.
By using our online and mobile resources or purchasing our products or services, you are signifying to us that you agree with this section of our privacy statement and that we may use and disclose your information as described.
When/With Whom Do We Share Personal Information
We use non-personal information to administer our online and mobile resources, improve their usability, and inform our business decisions regarding customer preferences and product development.
We use voluntarily provided personal information to respond to your inquiries, fulfill services or transactions you’ve requested, and for other legitimate business purposes as described in this statement. We do not sell or rent your personal information to third-party data vendors or marketing companies. However, we may disclose your information when required by law or under the good faith belief that such action is necessary to:
Comply with a legal obligation;
Protect and defend the rights or property of Mission Telecom;
Prevent or investigate possible wrongdoing in connection with the services;
Protect the personal safety of users or the public;
Protect against legal liability.
Your Rights and Options
You do not have to provide personal information to enjoy most of the features of our online and mobile resources. Additionally, you can opt-out of communications such as newsletters, announcements, or marketing campaigns at any time.
Residents and data subjects whose personal information was obtained while they were in GDPR jurisdictions have certain additional rights, including but not limited to the right to access, correct, delete, or restrict the processing of their personal data.
