Additional information for Indigma customers

Indigma includes a unique identifier in certain web traffic from your mobile device. The identifier is used to help deliver relevant advertising and to deliver other services such as authenticating devices on the network. If you opt out of the Relevant Mobile Advertising program and you have not joined Indigma Selects, or if you activate certain types of lines that are not eligible to participate in our advertising programs, Indigma will stop inserting the Unique Identifier Header (UIDH). The identifier will continue to appear for a short period of time while we are updating our systems.

Indigma collects and uses mobile device location data for a variety of purposes, including to provide our mobile voice and data services, emergency services, and our and third-party location-based apps and services such as navigation, weather, mapping and child safety apps or tools. Indigma apps that use location information provide choices about the use of this information.

Indigma devices may include system software we use to help gather diagnostic information used to monitor network performance and the performance of your connections. Similar Indigma-supplied software enables automatic installation of apps when you activate your device and with your consent at later times. This software may be used, for example, to install an app you request or open an app or your browser to a specific page when you are interacting with a voice response system or an advertisement. This software collects information about the actions it takes, including information about when an app or browser is first opened and when it is uninstalled. You can delete or disable apps installed by this software at any time.

Indigma does not publish directories of our customers’ wireless phone numbers, and we do not provide or make them available to third parties for listing in directories unless you request that we do so.
