In general, PII and Non-PII are collected from information you provide by contacting the Company via phone, email, or letter, as well as using the Services, purchasing goods or services from the Company, or using the Site. In some situations, PII and Non-PII may also be collected or supplemented from information passively provided by your device, its software, or files on your devices such as cookies or web beacons. Information that is passively collected is generally limited to technical information such as mobile subscription identification numbers, system identification codes, international mobile equipment identification numbers, international mobile subscriber identities, mobile equipment identifiers, subscriber identity modules, mobile serial numbers, equipment serial numbers, operating systems, build numbers, software versions, MAC IDs, and/or IP addresses.

The Company collects PII and Non-PII when you contact the Company, use the Services, purchase goods or services from the Company, use the Site, register for an Account through the Site, subscribe to the Company’s newsletter, or fill out a form on the Site.
