Privacy Policy

Your Privacy Matters to Us

Effective Date: September 22, 2026

1. Introduction

EDS MOBILE LLC ("EDS Mobile," "we," "us," or "our") is committed to protecting your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, disclose, and safeguard your information when you use our mobile application, edsmobileapp.com website, eSIM, calling, messaging, and related services.

By using our Services, you agree to the collection and use of information in accordance with this Privacy Policy.

2. Information We Collect

2.1 Personal Information

We collect information that identifies you personally, including:

  • Account Information: Name, email address, phone number, date of birth
  • Payment Information: Credit/debit card details, billing address (processed through secure third-party payment processors)
  • Identity Verification: Government-issued ID or documents as required by telecommunications regulations
  • Contact Information: Mailing address, customer support communications

2.2 Device and Technical Information

  • Device type, model, and operating system
  • Device identifiers (IMEI, ICCID, eSIM identifiers)
  • IP address and network information
  • App usage data and analytics
  • Device compatibility information

2.3 Usage and Service Data

  • Data usage statistics and patterns
  • Service plan details and activation history
  • Network connection logs and quality metrics
  • Customer support interactions and call recordings
  • Transaction history

2.4 Location Information

  • Approximate location based on IP address
  • Cell tower location data for service provision
  • Location data if you grant permission through device settings

2.5 Cookies and Tracking Technologies

We use cookies, web beacons, and similar technologies to collect information about your interactions with our App and Services.

Third-Party Advertising: Third-party vendors, including Google, use cookies to serve ads based on a user's prior visits to our website or other websites. Google's use of advertising cookies enables it and its partners to serve ads to our users based on their visit to our sites and/or other sites on the Internet. Users may opt out of personalized advertising by visiting Ads Settings.

2.6 Device Permissions and Sensitive Data

To provide the core functionality of the EDS Mobile App, we may request access to specific permissions on your Android device. You can manage these permissions at any time in your device settings.

  • Microphone Access (RECORD_AUDIO): We access your device's microphone to enable voice and video calls and, when you separately enable Live Call Assist or AI Voice Agent, speech processing. Ordinary call audio is processed in real time to transmit your voice to the call recipient and is not recorded, stored, or used for advertising purposes by EDS Mobile. Optional AI and speech processing is described below.
  • Contacts List (READ_CONTACTS): With your explicit permission, we access your device's contacts list. This access is strictly used to:
    1. Display your contacts within the App so you can easily initiate calls or messages.
    2. Identify incoming callers by matching the caller ID to your saved contacts.
    We do not upload your contact list to our servers for data mining, nor do we sell or share your contact information with third parties.
  • Phone State (READ_PHONE_STATE): We may access your phone state to determine if you are currently on another call via your native dialer, ensuring that EDS Mobile calls do not interfere with your cellular service.

2.7 Optional AI and Speech Features

Optional AI processing is enabled through the relevant feature controls and in-app disclosures. Depending on the feature you choose, EDS Mobile sends the information needed to provide it to our backend and processors:

  • Live Call Assist: microphone audio captured during a call is streamed for speech-to-text processing, with original and translated text returned as subtitles. Audio audible to your microphone may include another participant's voice.
  • AI Voice Agent: when enabled, call audio may be processed through speech-to-text, AI reasoning, and text-to-speech systems so the assistant can participate in the call.
  • Message translation, Scam Shield, and writing suggestions: the relevant message text, sender or caller information, recent conversation context, or text you are composing may be processed to translate content, identify potential scams, or suggest text.
  • AI chat and diagnostics: prompts and the device, battery, network, and call-quality measurements relevant to your request may be processed to generate responses or diagnostic recommendations.

Deepgram provides speech processing and Cerebras provides AI inference. You can manage optional features through their app controls. Disabling a feature stops new processing for that feature; it does not automatically delete information already retained under our data-retention policy. When using features involving another participant, give notice and obtain consent where required by applicable law.

2.8 Messages, Backup, and Recovery

Message content, sender and recipient information, timestamps, delivery status, and media references are stored on the device and may also be stored by EDS Mobile and communications providers to send, deliver, synchronize, and retrieve messages.

In supported app versions, Android can back up or transfer the local app database, including messages and call history, according to your device settings and the app's database-only backup rules. Cloud backup requires supported encryption capabilities. Authentication credentials, preferences, internal files, and cached media are excluded from this automatic backup.

After you sign in, messages and media references can synchronize from EDS servers. Deleting a local message, clearing the app, or uninstalling it does not by itself delete server copies, recipient copies, or existing backups. A database backup does not guarantee that every media attachment remains available. Use the Account Deletion page to request deletion of your account and associated eligible data.

2.9 Website Sessions and Story Analytics

The account portal uses browser session storage to maintain your signed-in session; signing out clears that entry. Cloudflare hosts and protects the website and processes request information for security and rate limiting. Website AI chat sends submitted prompts to our backend and AI processor. Embedded maps, video, and other third-party content may cause your browser to contact their providers.

EDS Insights measures article starts, engaged reads, story clicks, and sharing actions using story identifiers and placement information. We retain story analytics only for as long as needed for the stories to function. The Insights browser event sender skips these measurements when Global Privacy Control or Do Not Track is enabled. This behavior applies to Insights story measurements; website advertising remains described in Section 2.5.
