Sprint Data Solutions Worldwide Marketing – Privacy Policy
This Privacy Policy governs all aspects of Sprint Data Solutions LLC’s information collection and handling practices. It applies not only to the data gathered through Sprint Data Solutions LLC’s owned and operated websites, but also to information collected via affiliated third-party platforms, co-branded campaigns, and other external sources, including the lawful acquisition of customer lists and user data from licensed third-party providers. By accessing, browsing, or using any part of Sprint Data Solutions LLC’s online properties, or by participating in any of its services, you signify your full and informed agreement to the terms outlined in this Privacy Policy. This includes, but is not limited to: (a) accessing or interacting with our websites and web-based services; (b) registering as an interactive user on the Site, such as a commenter, community participant, or discussion board member (“Commenter”); (c) enrolling in one or more of our promotional offers, contests, giveaways, or sweepstakes (“Promotions”); (d) registering for services or offers via a co-registration form hosted on an affiliated or third-party website; and (e) submitting content, media, or written material as a creator or participant in our digital publishing platform (“Contributor”).
By engaging in any of these actions, you acknowledge and consent to the collection, use, sharing, and retention of your personal information as outlined in this policy. If you do not agree with the terms set forth in this Privacy Policy—either in part or in full—you are not authorized to access the Site, use its features, participate in Promotions, or register as a Commenter or Contributor. Your use of the Site and its associated platforms is strictly conditional upon your acceptance of this Privacy Policy in its entirety. Sprint Data Solutions LLC reserves the right to amend or update this policy at any time, and continued use of the Site following the posting of changes constitutes acceptance of those changes. We encourage all users to review this Privacy Policy regularly to remain informed about how their data is collected and protected.
Collection of Information
Sprint Data Solutions LLC collects a variety of information from individuals who voluntarily complete surveys, order forms, or registration pages. These forms may be hosted directly by Sprint Data Solutions LLC or by authorized third-party partners on either online or offline platforms. The surveys are designed to gather detailed personal, demographic, and interest-based data to improve targeted marketing and consumer engagement strategies. Information requested may include, but is not limited to: full name, email address, mailing address, ZIP code, mobile and landline phone numbers, date of birth, gender identity, income or salary range, marital status, educational background, occupation, current employer, industry of employment, and areas of both personal and professional interest. Occasionally, additional information may be requested based on the nature of the survey or promotional offer. Participation in any survey or registration process is entirely voluntary, and individuals are under no legal or contractual obligation to disclose any information. However, those who choose to participate may be eligible to receive promotional incentives, such as discounts, product samples, sweepstakes entries, or other benefits offered by Sprint Data Solutions LLC or affiliated third-party sponsors as a token of appreciation. All collected information is securely stored and processed in accordance with applicable privacy regulations and data handling standards.
By registering for our services on this website or through any affiliated co-registration partner platform (“Coregistration”), you provide your express written consent to receive automated marketing communications via telephone. These communications may include auto-dialed or pre-recorded calls placed on behalf of Sprint Data Solutions LLC and its authorized partners, including but not limited to Degree Insider, Education Direct, and Academic Advisor. The phone number provided during the registration process may be used to contact you regarding offers, services, or opportunities that align with your interests or data profile. This consent applies even if your number is listed on federal or state “Do Not Call” registries. Your agreement signifies your willingness to be contacted under the terms of this policy and does not constitute a condition of purchase. For more details on how your information may be used or shared, please refer to the section titled “Use and Sharing of Personally Identifiable Information” in this Privacy Policy.
Personally Identifiable Information:
Sprint Data Solutions LLC collects Personally Identifiable Information (“PII”) when individuals voluntarily register on the Site, whether to participate in promotional offers, comment or contribute content, or interact with features requiring personal data input. PII includes any information that can directly or indirectly identify or locate an individual or entity, such as full name, email address, mailing address, daytime and cellular phone numbers, date of birth, or any other data requested during the registration process. In cases where an individual wins a promotion or prize, we may require additional Sensitive Information—including a Social Security Number and government-issued photo identification such as a driver’s license, passport, or voter ID card—for identity verification and regulatory compliance. PII may also be collected if you agree to the terms of this Privacy Policy but do not complete the registration process in full. Additionally, Sprint Data Solutions LLC collects Non-Personally Identifiable Information (“Non-PII”) through standard internet technologies such as cookies and web beacons when users access the Site. This may include your browser type (e.g., Chrome, Firefox), operating system (e.g., Windows, macOS, iOS), IP address, and Internet Service Provider (e.g., Comcast, Verizon). Such data is used in aggregate form to improve site design, personalize content, optimize performance, and analyze usage trends.
We use the PII you provide to enhance your experience on the Site, process your entries into promotional campaigns, and verify your identity when required. While your PII remains your property, by submitting it to Sprint Data Solutions LLC and its affiliated brand Coupon Alarms, you grant the company a transferable license to use your information—excluding Sensitive Information—for lawful marketing purposes. We may share, lease, sell, rent, or distribute your PII to authorized third parties under applicable law and consistent with this Privacy Policy. These third parties may include but are not limited to: providers of marketing tools, lead validation, email marketing platforms, suppression services, telemarketing partners, and data enhancement providers. Additionally, you agree that Sprint Data Solutions LLC may contact you with promotions or service updates related to the Site. In some cases, promotional offers and targeted advertisements may be delivered based on your consent to receive marketing from our partners and your willingness to interact with such content. Information shared may occur in both aggregate (statistical) and non-aggregate (individual-level) formats, depending on campaign needs and legal allowances.
By registering for our services directly or through affiliated co-registration partners, you explicitly consent to receiving marketing communications via automated telephone dialing systems, including pre-recorded or auto-dialed calls and texts. This may include outreach from Sprint Data Solutions LLC, Coupon Alarms, and our verified education and advertising partners, such as Degree Insider, Academic Advisor, and Education Direct. Even if your number is listed on federal or state “Do Not Call” registries, by voluntarily registering on the Site, you acknowledge and waive such protections and grant express written consent to be contacted via the telephone number and email address you provide. These calls may relate to education programs, financial products, promotional opportunities, or other marketing communications. Should you no longer wish to receive such outreach, instructions for unsubscribing or opting out will be provided in every message, and you may also refer to the “Opt-Out/Unsubscribe” section of this Privacy Policy.
Sprint Data Solutions LLC also reserves the right to release your PII, without prior notice, under specific legal or compliance-related circumstances. These include: (i) if we believe the Site, its Promotions, or your account is being used unlawfully or in violation of our Terms and Conditions; (ii) if required to comply with a valid legal request, such as a subpoena or court order, in which case we will attempt to notify you via email (where allowed by law); or (iii) in connection with a merger, acquisition, bankruptcy, or sale of all or part of our business. In the event of a business transition, such as a sale or reorganization, you will be informed through the Site and/or by email regarding how your PII will be handled and any rights you may exercise.
In addition to data collected directly, Sprint Data Solutions LLC also obtains information from third-party data providers. These external sources provide access to databases of consumer information, which we may purchase, license, or otherwise lawfully acquire. The data received may include the same categories of PII that users submit directly to us—such as name, email, postal address, date of birth, phone number, gender, income range, education level, marital status, occupation, industry, and stated interests. Prior to acquisition, Sprint Data Solutions LLC seeks written assurances from the data sellers that all individuals included on the list have lawfully consented to the use and transfer of their data for marketing purposes and that the seller has the right to convey such information. We incorporate these third-party data sets into our systems for marketing, analytics, and customer engagement purposes, always with attention to legal compliance and consumer privacy rights.
Sprint Data Solutions LLC may obtain additional information from individuals during various interactions beyond standard data collection processes. These instances include, but are not limited to, when an individual submits a claim for a prize, redeems a promotional incentive offered either by Sprint Data Solutions LLC or its affiliated third-party partners, or subscribes voluntarily to newsletters, services, or informational content offered by the company. In the course of providing a personalized and efficient user experience, Sprint Data Solutions LLC uses cookies and similar tracking technologies to collect data related to online behavior. Cookies are small text files stored on an individual’s computer or device that enable the system to recognize returning users and associate their browsing activity with information already stored in the company’s internal databases. This information may include pages visited, links clicked, and other behavioral indicators. These tools enhance the relevance of advertising and content delivery and help maintain session continuity and security. In addition to cookies, Sprint Data Solutions LLC may adopt other forms of technology in the future—such as web beacons, pixel tags, and device fingerprinting—as part of its ongoing effort to leverage emerging data collection methods.
Sprint Data Solutions LLC may also receive information about individuals from third-party sources outside of its own ecosystem. This “Outside Information” may come from business partners, advertising networks, public records, or commercial data brokers, and is integrated with existing profiles to improve accuracy, relevancy, and targeting. Collectively, any information obtained by Sprint Data Solutions LLC is categorized as “Individual Information,” a term which includes Survey Information, Third-Party List Information, Technology Information, Outside Information, and any other data voluntarily submitted or lawfully acquired. Importantly, Sprint Data Solutions LLC takes privacy compliance seriously and strictly prohibits the intentional collection of personal information from individuals under the age of 18. The Site is not directed toward minors, and if the company becomes aware that data from a person under 18 has been inadvertently collected, it will take immediate steps to delete such data from its systems and discontinue any associated processing. Because the company does not knowingly collect such data, it does not use, retain, or disclose it under any circumstances.
Sprint Data Solutions LLC has designed this policy to comply with the Children’s Online Privacy Protection Act (“COPPA”).
Sprint Data Solutions LLC may collect credit card information (“Credit Card Information”) from individuals when they place an order or complete a transaction through the Site. This information typically includes the credit card number, expiration date, cardholder name, billing address, and security code (CVV), all of which are required to process payments securely. To ensure the safety and confidentiality of this sensitive financial data, Sprint Data Solutions LLC employs industry-standard security protocols, including Secure Socket Layer (SSL) encryption technology, to encrypt Credit Card Information during transmission. This encryption ensures that the data is rendered unreadable while in transit between the user’s browser and our secure servers, thereby protecting it from unauthorized access or interception.
Once received, Credit Card Information is used solely for the purpose of authorizing, processing, and completing the requested transaction. Sprint Data Solutions LLC does not store credit card details on its servers beyond what is necessary for transaction fulfillment and in compliance with applicable financial regulations and security standards, such as the Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard (PCI DSS). In cases where recurring billing or subscription-based services are offered, individuals will be notified in advance, and explicit consent will be obtained for storing or reusing Credit Card Information.
Disclosure of Credit Card Information to third parties is strictly limited to those service providers and payment processors who require the information to authorize and complete the transaction. These third-party partners are contractually obligated to maintain the confidentiality and security of the information and are prohibited from using it for any purpose beyond fulfilling the requested service. Sprint Data Solutions LLC does not sell, lease, or share credit card details with marketers or unrelated third parties. While we take every reasonable measure to protect financial information, users are encouraged to monitor their statements regularly and report any unauthorized transactions immediately.
Use of Individual Information
Sprint Data Solutions LLC recognizes that third-party advertising networks, media buying platforms, and independent advertisers often utilize tracking technologies, such as cookies, pixels, and web beacons, to collect behavioral and demographic information about users as they browse the Internet. These technologies are commonly embedded in online advertisements and used to gather data for purposes such as audience profiling, behavioral targeting, ad frequency capping, and campaign performance analytics. While these cookies may be served when ads appear on websites affiliated with Sprint Data Solutions LLC or within email campaigns, it is important to note that Sprint Data Solutions LLC does not own, control, or have access to the data collected by such advertisers. We do not govern the use of their tracking technologies, nor are we responsible for how such third parties choose to collect, store, share, or otherwise process any information obtained through their cookies. Individuals who wish to learn more about these practices or manage their advertising preferences are encouraged to review the privacy policies of the respective advertising platforms or networks directly.
In addition, Sprint Data Solutions LLC may provide hyperlinks within its websites, promotional emails, or digital content that redirect users to third-party websites or resources. These external sites operate independently of Sprint Data Solutions LLC and may have their own privacy practices, terms of use, and data collection mechanisms. Sprint Data Solutions LLC does not endorse, control, or assume responsibility for the content, policies, or practices of these third-party sites. Users are advised to review the privacy notices and terms of any linked sites before submitting personal information or engaging with their content.
Moreover, Sprint Data Solutions LLC reserves the right, at its sole discretion, to disclose, transfer, or sell Individual Information to affiliated business entities or subsidiaries as part of strategic partnerships, internal reorganizations, or corporate expansion initiatives. These affiliated companies may access such information for purposes consistent with this Privacy Policy, including but not limited to marketing, analytics, operational support, or customer service. All such data transfers will comply with applicable privacy regulations and reflect Sprint Data Solutions LLC’s ongoing commitment to transparency and responsible data management.
California and Other State Special Privacy Rights
If you are a resident of the State of California—or any other state or jurisdiction that provides legal protections regarding the privacy and handling of your Personally Identifiable Information (PII)—you may be entitled to specific rights and remedies beyond those outlined in this Privacy Policy. These rights are granted under state-specific data privacy laws designed to give consumers greater transparency, control, and access to the use of their personal data.
Pursuant to California Civil Code Sections 1798.83 through 1798.84, also known as the “Shine the Light” law, California residents have the right to request and obtain, once per calendar year and free of charge, a disclosure notice regarding the categories of personal information, if any, that we have shared with third parties or affiliated companies for their direct marketing purposes. This notice will include: (a) a list of the categories of customer information that were shared; (b) the names and addresses of those third parties and affiliates with whom such information was disclosed; and (c) the purpose of the data sharing. This provision applies to information shared in the immediately preceding calendar year.
If you are a California resident and wish to exercise your rights under this provision, you must submit a written request that clearly states your full name, your California residency status, and a request for the “California Privacy Disclosure Notice.” Please send your request to the following address:
Sprint Data Solutions LLC
5348 Vegas Dr. Ste C
Las Vegas, NV 89108
In your request, please specify that you want “Your California Privacy Rights Notice.” Please allow 60 days for a response.
Most modern web browsers, including Internet Explorer, Mozilla Firefox, Safari, and Google Chrome, offer users a “Do Not Track” (DNT) option that can be enabled through browser settings. When activated, this feature is intended to signal to websites and online services that the user prefers not to have their online activities—such as visited pages, clicked content, search queries, and behavioral patterns—monitored or used for purposes like targeted advertising, behavioral profiling, or personalized content delivery. While the concept of DNT was designed to provide users with greater control over their online privacy, compliance with these signals remains voluntary. Under current laws, including the California Online Privacy Protection Act (CalOPPA) and its amendments (specifically AB 370), websites are required to disclose their response to DNT signals, but are not obligated to honor them. Therefore, Sprint Data Solutions LLC hereby informs users that at this time, our systems do not recognize or respond to DNT browser signals. This means that even when the DNT setting is enabled, we may continue to collect and use information about your interactions with our Site for analytics, marketing, and service improvement purposes, in accordance with our Privacy Policy and applicable laws.
Pursuant to California Civil Code Section 1789.3, residents of the State of California who use this website are entitled to certain consumer rights. Specifically, users have the right to file complaints or grievances regarding our services or data practices with the California Department of Consumer Affairs. Inquiries or complaints can be submitted to the Department by mail at 400 R Street, Suite 1080, Sacramento, CA 95814; by telephone at (916) 445-1254 or toll-free at (800) 952-5210; or via email at dca@dca.ca.gov. We encourage California users to contact us directly first with any concerns, so we can promptly and appropriately address them.
Sprint Data Solutions LLC reserves the right to update, revise, or amend this policy at any time without prior notice. Users are encouraged to review this section periodically to stay informed about how we collect, use, and manage their data, as well as any updates related to legal rights and obligations.
