Overview

Project 10Million provides school districts with a free Wi-Fi hotspot and 100GB of free data. As part of the service, T-Mobile collects, uses, and discloses certain information from children who may be under the age of 13 (“children”). The purpose of this privacy notice is to notify school districts and the parents and/or guardians of children under the age of 13 (“you” or “your”) of T-Mobile's data collection, use and disclosure that relate to the Project 10Million service. This privacy notice supplements our general Children’s Privacy Notice.

We need your consent to collect, use, and disclose personal information from your child(ren) in connection with the Project 10Million service. We will not collect, use, or disclose any personal information from your child(ren) if you do not provide such consent. The Federal Trade Commission has stated that a district or school may consent to such data collection, use, and disclosure on behalf of the parent or guardian to the extent such data collection, use, and disclosure is to provide services solely for the benefit of the school.

Customer has read this notice, consents on behalf of parents and guardians of children under 13 to the collection, use and disclosure practices described below, and authorizes T-Mobile to engage in such practices.
