Data Security
The security of your Personal Information is given a high priority. We take all reasonable steps to securely store your Personal Information so that it is protected from unauthorised use, access, modification or disclosure. This includes both physical and electronic security measures.
It is a legal requirement that, in some circumstances, we keep records of your Personal Information for a period of 7 years.

All such third parties are prohibited from using your Personal Information except to provide these services and they are required to maintain the confidentiality of your information.
If we propose to sell the business, we may disclose your Personal Information to potential purchasers for their due diligence investigations. Disclosure will be made in confidence and it will be a condition of that arrangement that no Personal Information will be used or disclosed by them.

Data Transmission
United Global SIM has security measures in place to provide protection against the loss, misuse and alteration of your Personal Information. Unfortunately, no data transmission over the Internet can be guaranteed to be 100% secure. As a result, while we strive to protect your Personal Information, United Global SIM cannot warrant or ensure the security of any information you transmit to us, and you do so at your own risk.
When you give Personal Information to United Global SIM, that information may be sent electronically to servers outside of the country where you originally entered that information. In addition, the information may be used, stored and processed outside of the country where you entered that information.
Protecting your Global SIM account from unauthorised access
Anyone who knows your account PIN or online username and password can access your account. You must keep your PIN, username and password secure and only share these details with people you authorise to access and manage your United Global SIM account. United Global SIM accepts no responsibility for information disclosed to parties who know your PIN, username or password.
You are solely responsible for maintaining the secrecy of passwords which may be issued to you and/or any account information. Please be careful and responsible in all of your online dealings.

Accessing your Personal Information
You can request access to your Personal Information in most cases without restriction or charge. If charges are applicable for providing access we will disclose these charges to you prior to providing you with the information. We will provide you with access to your Personal Information unless we are legally authorised to refuse your request which we will explain in writing. To request your Personal Information, please contact us at the address below. Access to the requested information may include providing you with copies, providing you with the opportunity for inspection or providing you with a summary.

OTHER INFORMATION WE COLLECT

Cookies
A cookie is a small data file that certain websites write to your hard drive when you visit them. A cookie file can contain information such as a user ID that the site uses to track the pages you've visited. But the only Personal Information a cookie can contain is information you supply yourself.
Generally, cookies work by assigning a unique number to the user that has no meaning outside the assigning site. A cookie cannot read data off your hard disk or read cookie files created by other sites. This random number lets us keep track of "how many" times customers are doing specific things - like visiting our site each month - without really knowing who those customers are. We also use cookies to keep track of the purchase and activation paths and to make sure you don't see the same ad repeatedly. We use cookies to deliver content specific to your interests and to save your member ID.
After you have entered your contact and delivery details during a session on our service, you can elect to save that information so you don't have to re-enter it on your return to the site. If you do not want this information to be saved, you must indicate "DO NOT SAVE DETAILS" when prompted. Users should be aware that United Global SIM cannot control the use of cookies or the resulting information by advertisers or third parties hosting data for United Global SIM.
The use of cookies is an industry standard and many websites use them to provide useful features for you.
Cookies do not personally identify you, only your computer. If you do not want information collected through the use of cookies, there is a simple procedure in most browsers that allows you to deny or accept the cookie feature; however, users should note that cookies may be necessary to provide the user with certain features (e.g., customized delivery of information) available on the site.
