Privacy Policy
Amerimex Communications Corp. d/b/a SafetyNet Wireless (“SafetyNet,” “we,” “us,” “our”) provides prepaid wireless services and is designated as an Eligible Telecommunications Carrier (“ETC”) for the federal Lifeline program.
This Privacy Policy explains what Personal Information we collect, how we use and disclose it, and the choices and rights you have. It applies to our websites, customer portals, and telecommunications and internet access services, and to devices we provide (collectively, the “Services”).
1 Information We Collect
“Personal Information” means information that identifies or is reasonably linkable to a consumer or household. Depending on your interactions with us, we collect:
- Identifiers & Contact Information: Name, gender, preferred language, postal address, email, phone, account identifiers, IP address
- Government & Eligibility Information: Last four digits of SSN or other government ID, and Lifeline eligibility documentation (proof of participation in eligible programs). Used only for eligibility, enrollment, recertification, and compliance
- Account, Billing & Payment Information: Purchases, plan selections, billing and payment history, refunds, payment method tokens processed by PCI-compliant processors
- CPNI & Network Usage Information: Service types/features, device identifiers, date/time/duration/quantity of calls, texts, and data sessions, numbers dialed or texted, and related billing information. We do not collect or retain the content of your calls or texts
- Internet/Broadband & Device Telemetry (non-CPNI): IP/MAC, OS/browser, bandwidth use, session timing, device state, and coarse network-derived location
- Precise Location: Only when you enable device-level location services or as necessary for emergency services like E911
- Communications & Preferences: Customer care records, preference-center choices, consent settings, correspondence through our website or phone
- From Service Providers/Partners: Identity verification/fraud-prevention results, payment processors, retail partners, and USAC/National Verifier determinations
2 How We Use Personal Information
- Provide & Support the Services: Activation, provisioning, number porting, customer care, troubleshooting, roaming, optimization
- Administer Lifeline: Verify eligibility via the National Verifier, annual recertification, required recordkeeping, audits
- Billing & Payments: Process orders, collect amounts due, manage disputes/chargebacks
- Security, Fraud & Abuse Prevention: Detect SIM-swap/port-out fraud, unwanted robotext/robocall abuse, and network misuse; protect customers and our network
- Legal & Regulatory Compliance: Respond to lawful process and government requests; calculate/remit taxes/fees; maintain required CPNI notices, authentication, and marketing logs
- Emergency Services: Support 911 and other exigent life-safety needs as permitted and required by law
- Marketing: We do not engage in third-party targeted advertising or any “sale”/”sharing” of Personal Information
2A) Analytics, Automation & AI
We use analytics and limited automation to operate and protect the Services, including network performance management, fraud detection, and quality assurance for customer support.
Important: We do not sell or share Personal Information, and we do not use third-party targeted advertising.
No solely automated eligibility decisions: Lifeline eligibility determinations are made by the federal program administrator (USAC/National Verifier). SafetyNet does not make eligibility, pricing, or service denial decisions based solely on automated processing.
Your rights: In some states, you may have the right to opt out of profiling and request information about our use of automated decision-making. To exercise these rights, use our Privacy Request Form.
3 How We Disclose Information
- Service Providers/Processors: Under contracts restricting use to our instructions (e.g., network operations, hosting, analytics, billing, customer care, identity/fraud checks, shipping, and message delivery)
- Government & Program Administrators: USAC, FCC, and state commissions for Lifeline administration, certification, audits, or investigations
- Emergency & Safety: 911 and other public safety entities, when necessary to prevent serious harm
- Legal/Regulatory: To comply with law, enforce terms, protect rights, or respond to lawful process
- Corporate Transactions: As part of a merger, acquisition, financing, or asset transfer, subject to contractual protections
- Caller ID: Your name/number may be displayed to called parties and their carriers
- Aggregated/De-identified Data: We may share non-identifiable insights that do not identify you
4 Third-Party Services, Preloaded Apps & Independent Sales Channels
Our devices may include preinstalled or downloadable third-party applications and links to third-party services. These parties are independent of SafetyNet and may collect/use Personal Information under their own privacy policies.
Important: We do not control their data practices. Review each third party’s privacy policy before use. Your interactions with those services are governed by their policies—not this Privacy Policy.
5 Your Choices & Consent Controls
CPNI Marketing Opt-Out (FCC)
You have a right—and we have a duty—to protect the confidentiality of your CPNI. You may opt out of our use/disclosure of CPNI for marketing beyond providing your existing services at any time via the methods in Contact Us or through our Privacy Request Form.
SMS/Call/Email Marketing (TCPA/CTIA)
We send marketing texts/calls/emails only with required consent. Reply STOP to revoke consent; HELP for help. Message & data rates may apply. We follow CTIA Messaging Principles and applicable 10DLC/A2P requirements.
Cookies/Analytics & Global Signals
If we use cookies/SDKs for functional analytics, you can manage settings in our Cookie Preferences. Where required by law, we honor Global Privacy Control (GPC) and other recognized universal opt-out mechanisms.
California “Your Privacy Choices”
We do not sell or share Personal Information and we do not use Personal Information for cross-context behavioral advertising. If that changes, we will provide appropriate links and process GPC signals.
