1 What information do we collect about you?
You may choose to give us personal information directly in a variety of situations. For example, you may want to give us
your name and contact information to communicate with you, to order a product, to process an order, to register for a
service, to provide you with a subscription, or to do business with us if you are a supplier or a business partner. You
may also provide your bank or credit card details to buy something from us or may share a description of your education
and work experience in connection with a job opening at eSIMsmart for which you wish to be considered. If you tell us
that you do not want us to use your information to make further contact with you beyond fulfilling your request, we will
respect your wishes.
We may also collect information relating to your use of our websites through the use of various technologies. For details
regarding the technologies we employ, see
Cookies below.
2 How will we use the information about you?
The following paragraphs describe in more detail how eSIMsmart may use your personal information.
2.1 Fulfilling your Request
If you request something from eSIMsmart, for example, a product or service, a call back, or specific marketing materials,
we will use the information you provide to fulfil your request. To help us do this, we may share information with others,
for instance, eSIMsmart's business partners, financial institutions, shipping companies, or postal or government authorities,
such as Customs authorities, involved in fulfilment. In connection with a transaction, we may also contact you as part
of our customer satisfaction surveys or for market research purposes.
2.2 Personalising your Experience on our websites
We may use information we collect about you to provide you with a personalised experience on our websites, such as providing
you with content in which you may be interested and making navigation on our sites easier.
2.3 Providing Support
We may use your personal information to support products or services you have obtained from us, such as notifying you of
a product update or fix.
We also provide “Live Chat” sessions on our websites to assist you while you’re navigating through our
sites; we will use personal information you provide via these sessions in accordance with this Privacy Statement.
2.4 Marketing
The information you provide to eSIMsmart, as well as the information we have collected about you indirectly, may be used by
eSIMsmart for marketing purposes. Before we do so, however, we will offer you the opportunity to choose whether or to
have your information used in this way. You may at any time choose not to receive marketing materials from us by following
the unsubscribe instructions included in each e-mail you may receive, by indicating so when we call you, by contacting us
directly (please refer to our contact details below).
Some of our offerings may be co-branded, that is sponsored by both eSIMsmart and third parties. If you sign up for these offerings,
be aware that your information may also be collected by and shared with those third parties. We encourage you to familiarise
yourself with their privacy policies to gain an understanding of the manner in which they will handle information about
you.
2.5 Recruitment
In connection with a job application or inquiry, whether advertised on an eSIMsmart website or otherwise, you may provide
us with information about yourself, such as a resume. We may use this information throughout eSIMsmart in order to address
your inquiry or consider you for employment purposes. Unless you tell us not to do so, we may keep the information for
future consideration.
2.6 Monitoring or Recording of Calls, Chats and Other Interactions
Certain transactions may involve you calling us or us calling you. They may also involve online chats. Please be aware that
it is eSIMsmart's general practice to monitor and in some cases record such interactions for staff training or quality
assurance purposes or to retain evidence of a particular transaction or interaction.
2.7 Mobile Applications and Social Media
eSIMsmart makes available mobile applications for download from various mobile application marketplaces. eSIMsmart also provides
social media tools on some of its websites to enable online sharing and collaboration among members who have registered
to use them. These include forums, wikis, blogs and other social media platforms.
When downloading and using these applications or registering to use these social media tools, you may be asked to provide
certain personal information. Registration information will be subject to and protected in accordance with this Privacy
Statement, except for the information that is automatically made available to other participants as part of your profile.
These applications and tools may also include supplemental privacy statements with specific information about collection
and handling practices. Read those supplemental statements to understand what the tools and applications may do.
Any other content you post, such as pictures, information, opinions, or any other type of personal information that you make
available to other participants on these social platforms or applications, is not subject to this Privacy Statement.
Rather, such content is subject to the Terms of Use of those applications or platforms, and any additional guidelines
and privacy information provided in relation to their use, as well as the process by which you can remove your content
from such tools or get help to do so. Please refer to them to better understand yours, eSIMsmart's, and other parties'
rights and obligations with regard to such content. You should be aware that the content you post on any such social
media platforms may be made broadly available to others inside and outside eSIMsmart.
2.8 Protect the Rights and Property of eSIMsmart and Others
We reserve the right to disclose your personal information as required by law and when we believe that disclosure is necessary
to protect our rights, or the rights of others, or to comply with a judicial proceeding, court order, or legal process
served on our websites.
2.9 Information for Business Partners
If you represent a eSIMsmart business partner, you may visit eSIMsmart websites intended specifically for eSIMsmart business
partners. We may use information provided on that site to administer and develop our business relationship with you,
the business partner you represent, and eSIMsmart business partners generally. For instance, this may involve using your
information to send you details of eSIMsmart business partner programs. It may also include sharing certain information
with other business partners (subject to any confidentiality obligations that may exist), or eSIMsmart customers or prospects.
In connection with a particular transaction or program, we may also contact you as part of customer satisfaction surveys
or for market research purposes.
2.10 Sharing of Personal Information and International Transfers
eSIMsmart is a global organisation with business processes, management structures and technical systems that cross borders.
As such, we may share information about you within eSIMsmart and transfer it to countries in the world where we do business
in connection with the uses identified above and in accordance with this Privacy Statement. Our Privacy Statement and
our practices are designed to provide a globally consistent level of protection for personal information all over the
world. This means that even in countries whose laws provide for less protection for your information, eSIMsmart will still
handle your information in the manner described here.
In some cases, eSIMsmart uses suppliers located in various countries to collect, use, analyse, and otherwise process information
on its behalf. It is eSIMsmart's practice to require such suppliers to handle information in a manner consistent with
eSIMsmart's policies.
From time to time, we may disclose information that identifies you at an individual level and which we collected on our websites
to other non-eSIMsmart entities that are not acting as our suppliers, such as our business partners. Except as described
in this Privacy Statement, we will only do so with your prior consent. We do not sell or lease such information however.
Circumstances may arise where, whether for strategic or other business reasons, eSIMsmart decides to sell, buy, merge or otherwise
reorganise businesses in some countries. Such a transaction may involve the transfer of personal information to the purchaser.
It is eSIMsmart’s practice to seek appropriate protection for information in these types of transactions.
When transferring your information outside of the country of collection for the purposes identified above, eSIMsmart complies
with applicable law. For data originating from a European Union member state, eSIMsmart uses a variety of data transfer
mechanisms (including standard contractual clauses) for this purpose.
Please be aware that in certain circumstances, personal information may be subject to disclosure to government agencies pursuant
to judicial proceeding, court order, or legal process.
3 Information Security and Accuracy
We intend to protect your personal information and to maintain its accuracy. eSIMsmart implements reasonable physical, administrative
and technical safeguards to help us protect your personal information from unauthorised access, use and disclosure. For
example, we encrypt certain sensitive personal information such as credit card information when we transmit such information
over the Internet. We also require that our suppliers protect such information from unauthorised access, use and disclosure.
4 Retention
We will retain your registration information for as long as your account is active or as needed to provide you services.
If you wish to request that we no longer use your registration information to provide you services please contact us
at the details below. We will retain and use your registration information as necessary to comply with our legal obligations,
resolve disputes, and enforce our agreements.

eSIMsmart does not deliver third party online advertisements on our websites but we advertise our products and services on
others' websites. Please familiarise yourself with those website operators' or network advertisers' privacy policies
to understand their practices relating to advertising, including what type of information they may collect about your
Internet usage.
We have also engaged with certain third parties to manage some of our advertising on other sites. These third parties may
use cookies and Web beacons to collect information (such as your IP address) about your activities on eSIMsmart's and
others' websites to provide you targeted eSIMsmart advertisements based upon your interests. Those eSIMsmart advertisements
that are targeted to you will be identified with the AdChoices icon. You can click on the icon in the advertisements
itself to manage your preferences.
7 Links to Non-eSIMsmart Websites and Third Party Applications
To allow you to interact with other websites on which you may have accounts (such as Facebook and other social media sites)
or join communities on such sites, we may provide links or embed third-party applications that allow you to login, post
content or join communities from our websites.
We may also provide you with general links to non-eSIMsmart websites. Your use of these links and applications is subject
to the third parties’ privacy policies, and you should become familiar with the third party sites' privacy policies
before using the links or applications.
