What is the purpose of this Privacy Policy?
Intellisales Corporation has created this privacy policy in order to demonstrate our firm commitment to privacy. The following discloses our information gathering and dissemination practices for this website: www.Intellisales.com. Please continue reading for complete details on the Intellisales privacy policy. If you have any questions about the policy, you can request more information by filling in the contact us form.
What information do we collect from users and how is it used?
Intellisales is the sole owner of the information collected on this site. We will not sell, share, or rent this information to others in ways different from what is disclosed in this policy.
Intellisales collects information from our users at several different points on our website. Some sections on our site require specific information from you in order to begin or complete a transaction. In order to view supplier information and pricing in the "Start Here" section, we need to know the area code and prefix of the region for which you are searching rates. This information is used to identify the plans available to you in your geographic area.
Selecting a Plan; Request for Information
Once you select a plan on our site and you want to add it to your shopping cart, we ask that you create an Account by filling in your Username, E-mail Address, Password, Name, Address, Company Name, Job Title, Phone Number, Password Prompt Question and Answer, and whether you want to opt-in to receive E-mail special offers and tips. We request this information in order to save this information in your shopping cart. In addition, if you submit a Request for Information (RFI), we also ask that you create an Account so that we can contact you with the information you requested. If you decide to purchase a service you placed in your shopping chart, this information will be transferred to the supplier you selected for your service.
Wireless Orders
A credit card number is necessary only if you are placing an order for wireless service (to pay for the phone). The credit card information is entered into a secure site protected by a firewall and is transferred securely to the fulfillment company who processes your order and ships the phone. Intellisales deletes all credit card numbers every two months for orders that have been fulfilled. When placing a wireless order, the supplier requires Intellisales to collect your social security number and driver's license number to validate your identity and to perform a credit check. This is standard procedure when placing a wireless order and activating service. Intellisales does not share this information with any additional parties and the information is stored securely in a database that is firewall protected.
3rd Party Verification
According to FCC regulations, in some instances an independent 3rd party company may be utilized to verify a long distance order in lieu of a signature. Either Intellisales or the service provider will facilitate this 3rd party verification, which is done over the telephone and lasts approximately 2-3 minutes.
Forms
For your convenience, Intellisales has several forms available on the website for requesting additional information. Intellisales uses the information to contact you and provide you with the information you requested. Information from these forms is not shared with outside parties.
