Mobile Application Privacy Policy
What is covered by this Privacy Policy
LiveOak Fiber LLC or its affiliates (“LiveOak”) provides a mobile application for use by subscribers of broadband service providers (“BSP”) who purchase services from LiveOak as a processor of, or service provider for, its BSP’s subscriber personal information under applicable privacy and data protection laws. Your BSP provider is the controller of (or business for) its subscriber personal information. In other words, your BSP determines how and why your information is processed. As such, subscribers should refer to their BSP’s privacy notice for details on how the BSP processes subscriber personal information.
Privacy Policy applies for any use of the App
This Privacy Policy applies to the App described in the LiveOak End User License Agreement (the “Agreement”). Please read your BSP’s privacy notice and this Privacy Policy carefully to understand how information collected by the App will be treated. If you do not agree with your BSP’s privacy notice and this Privacy Policy, you should not install, use, or access the App.
Children Under the Age of 16
The App is not intended for children under 16 years of age, and on behalf of its BSPs, LiveOak does not knowingly collect personal data of children under 16, without parental consent. If LiveOak learns that personal data from a child under 16 has been obtained or received without verification of parental consent, LiveOak will delete that information. If you believe LiveOak might have any information from or about a person under 16 years of age, please contact LiveOak at productprivacy@liveoakfiber.com.

Data Security
All information you provide to us is stored on our secure servers behind firewalls. LiveOak utilizes mechanisms such as intrusion detection systems, intrusion prevention systems, firewalls and encryption to secure information from accidental loss and from unauthorized access, use, alteration, and disclosure. LiveOak deploys Intrusion Detection Systems (IDS) and Intrusion Prevention Systems (IPS) to alert and proactively contain potential threats. Enhanced security visibility and coverage is enabled through added layers of firewall and IDS beyond the network perimeter. Management connections to servers are always authenticated and encrypted via Secure Shell (SSH) when administration access is required for troubleshooting, patch management, and upgrades.
LiveOak runs automated vulnerability scanning on all perimeter systems to identify potential security risks. Scanning applications are regularly updated to remain current and up to date on important security vulnerabilities. Patches are applied to all relevant systems unless a compensating control is implemented.
LiveOak uses a variety of industry-standard security technologies and best practices to help protect information from unauthorized access, use, or disclosure. All data stored on the LiveOak systems is encrypted following industry standards using the strongest keys and ciphers. All communications with the App are protected with industry standard security protocols.
You control access to your account. You must keep your login credentials and passwords secure and protected and maintained as confidential. LiveOak is not responsible for any circumvention of any privacy settings or security measures provided.
