Effective Date: April 20, 2026

Private Fiber, Inc. ("Private Fiber," "we," "us," or "our"), a Texas C Corporation with its principal mailing address at PO Box 84, Cleburne, TX 76033, is committed to protecting the privacy and security of your personal information. This Privacy Policy describes how we collect, use, store, share, and protect information in connection with the fiber internet services ("Services") we provide. This Privacy Policy applies to all Subscribers, users, and visitors who access our Services or website at privatefiber.com.

This Privacy Policy is incorporated by reference into the Terms of Service available at privatefiber.com/terms. By using our Services, you acknowledge that you have read, understood, and consent to the practices described herein.

1. Information We Collect

1.1 Account and Service Information

When your community is activated or when Services are provisioned to your premises, we may collect: your name, address, and unit or lot number; email address and telephone number; billing and payment information (where direct billing applies); service tier selections and equipment identifiers; HOA or community association membership information as provided by the Bulk Customer; and move-in and move-out dates as reported by the community.

1.2 Network and Usage Information

In the course of providing Services, we automatically collect certain technical and network data, including: IP addresses assigned to your connection; bandwidth usage and data consumption (aggregate volume, not content); device MAC addresses connected to our network equipment; network performance metrics such as signal strength, latency, uptime, and error rates; and CPE status, firmware versions, and diagnostic data.

Important: Private Fiber does not monitor, inspect, record, or store the content of your internet communications, browsing history, search queries, or application usage. We do not perform deep packet inspection for content surveillance purposes.

1.3 Customer Proprietary Network Information (CPNI)

As a telecommunications service provider, we collect and maintain Customer Proprietary Network Information ("CPNI") as defined by the Federal Communications Commission under 47 C.F.R. §64.2001 et seq. CPNI includes information related to the type, quantity, technical configuration, destination, and amount of use of your telecommunications services, as well as billing information. CPNI does not include your name, address, or telephone number.

1.4 Website and Communications Data

When you visit privatefiber.com or contact our support team, we may collect: browser type, operating system, and device information; IP address and approximate geographic location; pages visited and interactions on our website; cookies and similar tracking technologies (see Section 7 below); and records of support requests, emails, and communications with our team.

1.5 Information You Voluntarily Provide

We collect information you voluntarily provide, such as when you submit an inquiry or site-review form, request service, enter into a Customer Service Agreement, or communicate with our team. This may include name, company, title, phone number, email, project or site details, and the nature of your inquiry.

2. How We Use Your Information

We use collected information for the following purposes: provisioning, activating, maintaining, and improving Services; billing, payment processing, and account management; network operations, capacity planning, performance monitoring, and troubleshooting; responding to support requests and resolving technical issues; communicating service updates, maintenance windows, and outage notifications; complying with legal obligations, regulatory requirements, and law enforcement requests; detecting and preventing fraud, abuse, and violations of our Terms of Service and Acceptable Use Policy; and generating aggregate, de-identified analytics to improve network design and service quality.

3. CPNI Protections

Private Fiber protects your CPNI in accordance with FCC regulations and applicable Texas law. Specifically:

3.1 Use for Service Delivery. We use CPNI as necessary to provide and bill for your Services, respond to your service inquiries, and protect against fraud and network abuse.

3.2 Marketing Restrictions. We will not use your CPNI for marketing purposes beyond the service category you currently subscribe to without your express, affirmative consent (opt-in). You may grant or revoke CPNI marketing consent at any time by contacting us in writing.

3.3 Disclosure Limitations. We will not disclose your individual CPNI to any third party, including your HOA, Bulk Customer, property manager, or developer, without your written consent or unless required by law or legal process. We may disclose aggregate, de-identified data to Bulk Customers for community-level reporting purposes, but such data will never identify individual Subscribers or their usage patterns.

3.4 Authentication. Before disclosing CPNI to any person claiming to be the account holder, we will verify identity through reasonable authentication measures as required by FCC rules.

4. Information Sharing and Disclosure

Private Fiber does not sell, rent, or lease your personal information to third parties for their marketing purposes. We may share information in the following limited circumstances:

4.1 Service Providers and Contractors. We may share information with trusted third-party service providers who assist us in operating our network, processing billing, hosting this website, managing customer communications, or providing support, subject to contractual confidentiality obligations. See Section 11 for the specific providers we use.

4.2 Bulk Customers (Aggregate Only). We may provide aggregate, de-identified community-level data to HOAs, developers, or property owners for the purpose of BSA reporting and service performance verification. This data will not identify individual Subscribers.

4.3 Legal Compliance. We may disclose information when required by law, regulation, subpoena, court order, or other legal process, or when we believe in good faith that disclosure is necessary to protect our rights, prevent fraud, or ensure the safety of our network or users.

4.4 Business Transfers. In the event of a merger, acquisition, reorganization, or sale of assets, your information may be transferred as part of the transaction. We will notify you of any such transfer and any changes to this Privacy Policy.

5. Data Retention

We retain personal information and account data for as long as your service remains active and for a reasonable period thereafter as necessary to comply with legal obligations, resolve disputes, enforce our agreements, and support legitimate business operations. Network performance and usage data is retained in aggregate form for capacity planning and infrastructure development. When personal information is no longer needed, we securely delete or de-identify it in accordance with industry best practices.

6. Data Security

Private Fiber implements reasonable administrative, technical, and physical safeguards designed to protect your personal information from unauthorized access, use, alteration, or destruction. These safeguards include but are not limited to: encrypted data transmission and storage; access controls and authentication requirements for personnel; network segmentation and monitoring; and regular security assessments and updates. No method of electronic transmission or storage is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security. If you become aware of a security incident involving your account, please contact us immediately.

7. Cookies and Tracking Technologies

Our website (privatefiber.com) uses cookies and similar technologies to improve functionality and user experience. These may include: essential cookies required for website operation; analytics cookies to understand visitor behavior and improve our site; and preference cookies to remember your settings and choices. We do not use cookies to track your internet activity outside of our website, and we do not sell personal information or use it for targeted advertising.

We use two analytics services on this website, and no others:

  • HubSpot — our customer relationship management system. HubSpot sets a cookie that records which pages are viewed on this site. If you later submit one of our inquiry forms, HubSpot associates that browsing history with your contact record so we understand what you were researching before you contacted us. See HubSpot’s privacy policy.
  • Google Analytics 4 — aggregate website statistics: how many people visit, which pages they read, and which sources referred them. Google Analytics 4 does not record full IP addresses, and we have not enabled Google Signals, so this service does not build an advertising profile of you and does not identify you to us individually. See Google’s privacy policy.

How to opt out. You can decline analytics in any of the following ways, and we honor all of them:

  • Enable Global Privacy Control in your browser or extension. We detect this signal automatically and disable analytics for your visit — no further action needed.
  • Enable your browser’s Do Not Track setting. We treat it the same way.
  • Block or delete cookies through your browser settings, or install Google’s Analytics opt-out browser add-on.
  • Email support@privatefiber.com and ask us to delete any information already associated with you.

Opting out of analytics does not affect your ability to use this website or to contact us. Essential cookies required for the site to function are not affected.

8. Children's Privacy

Private Fiber does not knowingly collect personal information from children under the age of thirteen (13). Our Services are provided to residential premises and are not directed at children. If we become aware that we have collected personal information from a child under 13 without parental consent, we will promptly delete that information.

9. Your Rights

Depending on applicable law, you may have certain rights regarding your personal information, including the right to: access the personal information we hold about you; request correction of inaccurate information; request deletion of your personal information, subject to legal and contractual obligations; restrict or object to certain processing of your information; opt out of CPNI marketing use at any time; and receive a copy of your information in a portable format. To exercise any of these rights, please contact us using the information in Section 13 below. We will respond to verified requests within a reasonable timeframe in accordance with applicable law.

Scope. Private Fiber, Inc. is a Texas company and provides services only within the United States. We do not offer services to, or direct our website at, individuals in the European Union or United Kingdom, and we do not knowingly monitor the behavior of individuals located there. If you are located outside the United States and believe we hold information about you, contact us using Section 13 and we will handle your request under the same rights described above.

Universal opt-out signals. Where required by applicable law, and as a matter of practice regardless, we recognize browser-based opt-out preference signals including Global Privacy Control. When we detect one, we disable analytics for that visit automatically.

10. Texas and Federal Compliance

This Privacy Policy is designed to comply with applicable Texas state law, including the Texas Business and Commerce Code, as well as federal regulations governing telecommunications providers, including the FCC's CPNI rules (47 C.F.R. Part 64, Subpart U). To the extent any provision of this Privacy Policy conflicts with applicable law, the applicable law shall control.

11. Third-Party Services

Our website and Services rely on the following third parties. Information handled by them is governed by their respective privacy policies, and we encourage you to review them.

  • HubSpot, Inc. — customer relationship management, inquiry forms, and website analytics.
  • Google LLC — Google Analytics 4, for aggregate website statistics.
  • Vercel Inc. — website hosting and content delivery. Vercel processes standard server request data such as IP address and user agent in order to serve the site.
  • Microsoft Corporation — business email and productivity services used to correspond with you.

We do not sell personal information to third parties, and we do not share it for cross-context behavioral advertising.

12. Modifications

Private Fiber may update this Privacy Policy at any time. Material changes will be posted at privatefiber.com/privacy with at least thirty (30) days' advance notice. Your continued use of Services after the effective date of any modification constitutes your acceptance of the updated Privacy Policy. We encourage you to review this Privacy Policy periodically.
