We are providing this Privacy Notice (“Notice”) to describe how uBreakiFix collects, uses, discloses, and handles your personal data, and information about privacy rights you may have, depending upon where you live.

A Few Terms

uBreakiFix by Asurion, Asurion Tech Repair & Solutions, or the term “us”, “we”, or “our” and collectively, “uBreakiFix” refers to the owner of this website and provider of the services. The term “you” refers to the user or viewer of this website or any of the services provided by uBreakiFix. This page informs you of our policies regarding the collection, use, and disclosure of personal data we receive from you.

When we use terms like “you” and “your,” we’re talking about you as a visitor to our websites and stores that refer to this Notice or as a user of uBreakiFix products and services.

It is important to understand that this Notice applies only when uBreakiFix controls how and why your personal data is being used, such as when you visit our websites or stores or make purchases directly from uBreakiFix.

When uBreakiFix is providing products and services on behalf of and at the direction of one of our corporate customers, those services may be provided under those customers’ privacy notices and policies instead of, or in some cases in addition to, this Notice. If you have questions about uses of your personal data by a uBreakiFix corporate customer, they should be directed to the company through whom you may have encountered uBreakiFix.

Supplemental Notices

In some special cases, uBreakiFix may provide a product or service offering that includes a supplemental privacy notice that gives additional information about that offering’s use of personal data. In that situation, if anything in the supplemental notice conflicts with information provided in this Notice, the supplemental notice’s information controls. If there are supplements, links to such notices may be found at the end of this Notice.

How Long We Keep Your Personal Data

The amount of time we retain a particular category of personal data will vary depending on the purpose for which it was collected, our business need for it and our legal obligations with respect to it. We retain your personal data for the time needed to fulfill the purpose for which that information was collected, to meet any legal obligations, and to adhere to our policies on keeping records.

Exercising Your Rights Under Privacy Laws

Depending upon where you reside, you may have certain rights related to your personal data, including rights to access, correct, limit use or disclosure, data portability, and, in some cases, request deletion of your personal data. You will not have to pay a fee to access your personal data (or to exercise any of the other rights). However, we may charge a reasonable fee if your request for access is unfounded or excessive.

If we used consent to lawfully and fairly use your personal data, you may withdraw your consent at any time. In some cases, we may limit or deny your request to withdraw consent if the law permits or requires us to do so, or if we are unable to adequately verify your identity. Requests to exercise these rights can be submitted through uBreakiFix’s Privacy Rights Portal, or by calling 1-844-798-7701. We will respond to these requests in the manner prescribed by law.

We will take reasonable steps to validate your identity before responding to a privacy rights request. The information required from you to validate your request will usually be information like your name, email address, or other similar contact information. In some cases, additional personal data may be needed from you to validate your identity. We reserve the right not to respond to requests generated through third-party applications or automated processes without direct validation of the requests by individuals using the resources provided by us for the exercise of these rights.

Information for California Residents

This portion of the Notice pertains to personal data we collect from or about California residents and provides additional information required by California law.

California-Designated Categories of Personal Data We Collect The categories of data uBreakiFix collects are described above in “Categories of Personal Data We Collect.” Although we have sought to present a clear and accurate summary of the data we collect in that section, California regulations designate specific category titles to be used in describing the data. A summary of those categories and how they correspond to the information previously described appears below.

Sensitive Personal Information

Some of the categories listed above include information that California designates as “sensitive personal information.”

We do not use or disclose sensitive personal information except as follows:

• Where necessary to perform services for or provide products to you;
• In detecting security incidents, and protecting against malicious, deceptive, fraudulent or illegal activity and responding to such activity;
• Short-term transient uses where permitted by law;
• Where needed for services to be provided for us to accomplish ordinary business purposes, such as maintaining or servicing accounts, providing customer service, processing or fulfilling orders and transactions, verifying customer information, processing payments, providing financing, providing analytic services, providing storage; or
• Where needed to verify or maintain the quality or safety of our products and services.

"Selling” and “Sharing” of Your Personal Data

California law defines the terms “selling” and “sharing” in a manner that differs from what the words typically mean in common conversation. uBreakiFix does not sell your personal data for money.

Under California law, “sharing” is defined as providing or communicating an individual’s personal data to a third party for purposes of cross-context behavioral advertising. uBreakiFix has shared personal data for these purposes within the last 12 months, including as described in “Cookies and Other Tracking Technologies” above.

In the case of both “selling” and “sharing” within the meaning described here, the personal data disclosed falls into the categories of 1) identifiers, 2) internet or similar network activity, and 3) inferences from personal data, and the third parties to whom we have disclosed such information assist us in providing, maintaining and operating our marketing activities.

uBreakiFix does not sell or share personal data that California defines as “sensitive personal information.”

As noted above, uBreakiFix does not knowingly collect personal data about individuals under the age of 16, and therefore does not sell or share such information.

Information About California Privacy Rights

Residents of California have specific and enumerated rights to control and understand their personal data. These rights include:

Right to Know You may request information about what categories of personal data we have about you, the categories of sources from which we collected that information, the purposes for collecting that personal data, the categories of third parties to whom we have disclosed your personal data, and the purposes for which the data was disclosed. You may also request specific pieces of personal data that we have about you.

Right to Delete You may ask that we delete any of the personal data that we possess about you, subject to certain exceptions.

Right to Correct Your Personal Data You may request that we correct any personal data we have about you that you believe to be incomplete or inaccurate.

Requests to exercise these rights can be submitted through uBreakiFix’s Privacy Rights Portal, or by calling 1-844-798-7701. uBreakiFix will respond to these requests in the manner prescribed by law, including your right not to be discriminated against for exercising these rights.

Opt Out of Sharing You may opt out of sharing of your personal data by clicking on the “Cookie Preferences” link on the button on our homepage to access the Privacy Preference Center and toggling off targeting cookies. As noted above, ubreakifix.com also honors cookie preferences signaled by the Global Privacy Control. Please be advised that should you choose to disable certain tracking technologies, you may encounter functionality issues with some of our sites.

Authorized Agents

A properly authorized agent may be able to exercise California privacy rights on your behalf. Authorized agents must contact us by submitting a request through our webform and indicate that they are submitting the request as an agent. We reserve the right to require the agent to validate their identity and to require the agent to demonstrate authority to act on your behalf by providing signed permission from you. We may also require you to verify your own identity directly with us or to directly confirm with us that you provided the authorized agent permission to submit the request.
