You may be asked to provide your personal information anytime you are in contact with Celstream or Celstream affiliates or Celstream authorized business partners (which includes agents, contractors, vendors, licensors, resellers, system integrators, etc.).
- When you purchase Celstream services, register for utilizing Celstream services, contact Celstream to report service issues, apply for credit, or participate in an online survey, Celstream, its affiliates or authorized business partners may collect various information, including your name, mailing address, phone number, email address, contact preferences, unique device identifier and credit card information.
- Celstream, its affiliates and its business partners may share this personal information with each other and use it consistent with this Privacy Policy. They may also combine it with other information to provide and improve Celstream’s services, content, and advertising.
- The personal information Celstream collects allows it to keep you posted on the latest services announcements, services updates and upcoming events. It also helps Celstream to improve its content, and advertising. You can opt out by sending a notice to our return email address at anytime. Please note that opting out may impact your ability to use some Celstream services.
- Celstream may use your personal information to send important notices, such as communications about purchases, changes to the terms, conditions, and policies, your compliance/non-compliance with the terms and conditions of usage of Celstream services, etc. Because this information is important to your interaction with Celstream, you may not opt out of receiving these communications.
- Celstream may also use personal information for internal purposes such as auditing, data analysis, and research to improve Celstream’s services, and customer communications.
- If you enter into a sweepstake, contest, or similar promotion Celstream may use the information you provide to administer those programs.
2. Collection & Usage of Non-Personal Information
- Non-personal information is data in a form that does not permit direct association with any specific individual. Celstream may collect, use, transfer, and disclose non-personal information for any purpose.
- Celstream may collect information such as unique device identifier, location, details on services usage and the time zone where a Celstream service is used so that Celstream can better understand customer behaviour and improve its services, and advertising. Where applicable, Celstream may collect and review your content to ensure your compliance with the terms and conditions of usage of its services, etc.
- Celstream also may collect information regarding customer activities on the Celstream website. This information is aggregated and used to provide more useful information to its customers and to understand which parts of the Celstream website, products, and services are of most interest. Aggregated data is considered non-personal information for the purposes of this Privacy Policy.
- If Celstream combines non-personal information with personal information the combined information will be treated as personal information, as long as it remains combined and will be subject to the policy mentioned in section 1 above.
3. Cookies & Other Technologies
- Celstream’s website, online services, interactive applications, email messages, and advertisements may use “cookies” and other technologies such as pixel tags and web beacons. These technologies enable Celstream to understand user behaviour, identify which parts of the website the users have visited, and facilitate and measure the effectiveness of advertisements and web searches.
- Celstream treats information collected by cookies and other technologies as non-personal information. However, to the extent that Internet Protocol (IP) addresses or similar identifiers are considered personal information by local law, Celstream also treats these identifiers as personal information. Similarly, to the extent that non-personal information is combined with personal information, Celstream treats the combined information as personal information for the purposes of this Privacy Policy.
- Celstream and its partners may also use cookies and other technologies to remember personal information when you use the website, online services, and products/services. The objective in such instances is to make your experience with Celstream more convenient and personal.
- When you visit the website, Celstream may gather some information automatically and store it in log files. This information includes Internet Protocol (IP) addresses, browser type and language, Internet service provider (ISP), referring and exit pages, operating system, date/time stamp, and clickstream data. Celstream uses this information to understand and analyze trends, to administer the site, to learn about user behaviour on the site, and to gather demographic information about its user base as a whole. Celstream may use this information in its marketing and advertising.
- In some of its email messages, Celstream may use a “click-through URL” linked to content on the Celstream website. When customers click one of these URLs, they pass through a separate web server before arriving at the destination page on the website. This click-through data is tracked to enable the determination of interest in particular topics and measure the effectiveness of the customer communications. If you prefer not to be tracked in this way, you should not click text or graphic links in the email messages.
- Pixel tags enable Celstream to send email messages in a format customers can read, and they indicate whether mail has been opened. Celstream may use this information to reduce or eliminate messages sent to customers.
4. Disclosure to Third Parties
- At times Celstream may make certain personal information available to partners that work with Celstream to provide services, or that help Celstream market to customers. For example, when you purchase Celstream services, you authorize Celstream and its service providers to exchange the information you provide during the activation process to carry out services. If you are approved for services, your account will be governed by Celstream and its service providers’ privacy policies. Personal information will only be used by Celstream to provide or improve its services and advertising; it will not be shared with third parties for their marketing purposes.

These companies are obligated to protect your information and may be located wherever Celstream operates.
- It may be necessary − by law, legal process, litigation, and/or requests from public and governmental authorities within or outside your country of residence − for Celstream to disclose your personal information. Celstream may also disclose information about you if Celstream determines that for purposes of national security, law enforcement, or other issues of public importance, disclosure is necessary or appropriate.
- Celstream may also disclose relevant information if Celstream determines that disclosure is reasonably necessary to enforce its terms and conditions or protect its operations or users.

7. Access to Personal Information
- For certain services, Celstream requests user personal data such as email address information to complete registration and authenticate you as a valid user . In the future, as additional information is required for renewals or future registrations, Celstream will make good faith efforts to provide you with access so that you can request for Celstream to correct the data if it is inaccurate or delete the data if Celstream is not required to retain it by law or for legitimate business purposes. Celstream may decline to process requests that are unreasonably repetitive, require disproportionate technical effort, jeopardize the privacy of others, are extremely impractical, or for which access is not otherwise required by local law.
