As a cable operative, HBC may use the cable system to collect Personally Identifiable Information (PII) concerning any subscriber in order to render our cable service or other services to our subscribers; and (ii) detect unauthorized reception of cable communications. The Cable Act prohibits HBC from using the cable system to collect Personally Identifiable Information (PII) concerning any subscriber for any purposes other than those listed above without the subscriber’s prior written or electronic consent.

The Telecom Act authorizes HBC to use, disclose, and permit access to individually identifiable CPNI in the provisioning of our telecommunication services from which such information is derived; and the provisioning of services that are necessary to, or used in, the provisioning of these services, including the publishing of directories. The Telecommunication Act prohibits HBC from using CPNI for any other purpose that those that have been stated herein without a customer’s approval except as permitted or required by law.

What kind of Personally Identifiable Information (PII), Customer Proprietary Information, and CPNI is collected by HBC?

Personally Identifiable Information (PII) may be collected at several different points when service is initiated. Personally Identifiable Information (PII) does not include aggregate data or other data that does not identify a particular subscriber such as, demographic information that does not identify a specific individual or household or information, which by itself, is not specific to an individual subscriber, such as a subscriber’s specific GEO-location, gender, its IP address, MAC address or other equipment identifiers.  Personally Identifiable Information (PII) that HBC does collect from its subscribers includes a subscriber’s (i) name; (ii) service address; (iii) billing address; (iv) email address; (v) telephone number; (vi) driver’s license number; (vii) social security number; (viii) bank account number; (ix) credit card; and other similar account information.

Examples of CPNI that Company collects from its Phone subscribers includes information derived from the provisioning of service such as a customer’s (i) service location; (ii) technical configuration of service; (iii) type of service; (iv) quantity of service; (v) amount of use of service; (vi) calling patterns; (vii) other information contained on customer bills for local and long distance services.

CPNI does not include “subscriber list information”. The Company may also collect and maintain other information about a customer’s account. Examples of such information include (i) billing, payment and deposit history; (ii) additional service information; (iii) customer correspondence and communication records; (iv) records indicating the number of television sets, set-top boxes, modems, or telephones that are connected to our system and (vi) additional information about the service options you have chosen.

During the initial provisioning of services and during any subsequent changes or updates to our services, HBC may collect technical information about your televisions, any set-top boxes, computer hardware and software, cable modems, telephones, and or other cable or other service related devices along with any customized settings or preferences.  Also, if you rent your residence, we may have a record to whether the landlord permission was required prior to installing our services that along with the landlord’s name and address.

The kind of Information we Collect with our Cable System and Equipment

When a customer uses our interactive or other transactional service such as Video-On-Demand or Pay-Per-View or online content, our system as example, may automatically collect certain information about the use of these services.  A majority of this information is not personally identifiable, but is simply used to administer a particular request that is being made by use of a remote control, set-top box, VCR, computer, remote access device or other equipment.  Examples of this may be changing your television channel, review listings in an electronic guide, pause or fast forward through certain Video-On-Demand programming, and/or invoking a calling feature on the Phone service.

However, in order to carry out a request that is made by the subscriber to watch a Pay-Per-View program(s), purchase a product, service or feature, our system may collect certain Personally Identifiable Information (PII).  This type of information consists mainly of account and billing-related such as Pay-Per-View or Video-On-Demand programs or other such products, services or features ordered so that customers can be properly billed for those services.

In addition, anonymous and aggregate information using set-top box or other equipment may be collected. This type of information has been stripped so that no customer can be identified. Such that might be collected are based on programming viewership (things like number of times a program is watched per date, average length of time a program is watched and how many people might be watching a program), whether people are watching commercials. This type of non-Personally Identifiable Information (PII) can be shared with third-parties, including advertisers, content providers, data companies, rating agencies, audience measurement, and research firms.

HBC is committed to doing its best to maintain the security of information collected on our site. The Company works to prevent unauthorized access, maintain data accuracy, and ensure the correct use of information. It has put into place the appropriate physical, electronic and managerial procedures to safeguard and secure the information that is collected online. Private account and customer information is located on a secured server behind a firewall; it is not directly connected to the Internet.

HBC’s electronic bill pay portal uses encryption. Encryption is a process by which a message or information is scrambled while it is in transit to us. It is based on a key that has two different parts, public and private. The public part of the key is distributed to those with whom wants the user to communicate. The private part is for the recipient’s use only. So long as a user uses a browser that allows for encryption, when the user sends personal information to HBC, the user uses a public key to encrypt your personal information. If your information is intercepted during the transmission, it is scrambled and very difficult to decrypt. Once HBC receives a user’s encrypted personal information, the private part of the Company’s key is used to decode it.

HBC encourages customers to help protect their own privacy. In that regard, HBC recommends that customers ensure that their information is not shared with strangers. It is important to customers take precautions within their homes and/or businesses to protect the security of information that maybe transmitted over home or business networks, wireless routers, wireless (WiFi) networks or other such similar devices by using encryption or firewalls to prevent unauthorized access of your Personally Identifiable Information (PII).

Customers are responsible for the security of their personal information if using unencrypted, open access, or otherwise unsecure networks within their home or business.
