Rightlink USA, Inc. has instituted the following protocol governing the use, disclosure and protection of Customer Proprietary Network Information (CPNI) in compliance with the requirements of FCC rules, 47 C.F.R. 64.2001 et seq. CPNI is (A) information that relates to the quantity, technical configuration, type, destination, location, and amount of use of a telecommunications service subscribed to by any customer of a telecommunications carrier, and that is made available to the carrier by the customer solely by virtue of the carrier-customer relationship; and (B) information contained in the bills pertaining to telephone exchange service or telephone toll service received by a customer of a carrier. USE, DISCLOSURE OF, AND ACCESS TO CPNI

Rightlink USA, Inc. may use, disclose or permit access to CPNI without the customers approval in its provision of the communications service from which such information is derived; for services necessary to, or used in, the provision of such communications service; to initiate, render, bill and collect for communications services; to protect the rights or property of Rightlink USA, Inc., or to protect users or other carriers or service providers from fraudulent, abusive or unlawful use of, or subscription to, such services; to market services within the category or categories of services to which the customer already subscribes, including to market customer premises equipment (CPE), information services, call answering, voice mail or messaging, voice storage and retrieval services; and to provide maintenance or repair services; or as required by law. Rightlink USA, Inc. does not use or disclose CPNI in any manner requiring customer approval, including but not limited to the use of CPNI for the marketing or the provision of CPNI to a third party, except as indicated in the above disclosure. Rightlink USA, Inc. does not use, disclose or permit access to CPNI for the purpose of identifying or tracking customers who call competing local service providers. When Rightlink USA, Inc. receives or obtains proprietary information from another carrier for purposes of providing telecommunications service, it shall use such information only for such purpose and shall not use such information for its own marketing.

SAFEGUARDS AGAINST DISCLOSURE OF CPNI TO UNAUTHORIZED PARTIES

Rightlink USA, Inc. does not provide Call Detail Information (CDI) to inbound callers. CDI includes any information that pertains to the transmission of specific telephone calls. For outbound calls, this includes the number called and the time, location, or duration of any call. For inbound calls, this includes the number, from which the call was placed, and the time, location or duration of any call. The company may instead provide CDI to a customer at their request by sending it to their address of record that has been on file with Rightlink USA, Inc. for at least 30 days, or by calling back the customer at their telephone number of record. Rightlink USA, Inc. may disclose CPNI other than CDI to inbound callers after engaging in other reasonable authenticate measures to validate the identity of the customer. Rightlink USA, Inc. authenticates the identity of users seeking access to account information online by sending a randomly generated password to the email address of record at the time the account is created. The password is not expected to consist of any readily available biographical information or account information, nor will it include easily guessed units such as consecutive or repeated letters or numbers. Rightlink USA, Inc. does not have retail locations. Rightlink USA, Inc. would, if such an instance should arise, require customers to show a valid, non-expired, government-issued photo ID, such as a drivers license or passport, matching the customers account information. Customers receive notification whenever a password, online account or address, phone number or email address of record is created or amended. This notification may be through carrier originated voicemail to the telephone number of record, or through the mail to the address of record. This notification does not include any account information, including the changed information. REPORTING CPNI BREACHES TO LAW ENFORCEMENT

Rightlink USA, Inc. will notify the appropriate government entities of any breach of CPNI. A breach has occurred when a person, without authorization or exceeding authorization, has intentionally gained access to, used, or disclosed CPNI. Customers are notified upon completion of law enforcement procedures.

RECORD RETENTION

Rightlink USA, Inc. maintains records of any breaches and the resulting notifications to government entities and customers for a minimum of 2 years.

Rightlink USA, Inc. does not utilize CPNI for marketing purposes; however, to assure compliance, sales personnel must get supervisory approval for outbound marketing promotions.
