Privacy Policy

Draft for legal review. Company details and policy values (5 Sims, 180…) fill in from Settings → Brand & company and Legal & policies. Replace every remaining [PLACEHOLDER] and have a lawyer approve this page before launch.
This policy explains what personal data 5 Sims ("we") collects when you use 5 Sims, why, and for how long.
What we collect
- Account: name, email address, password (stored only as a hash), two-factor settings, sign-in method (e.g. Google).
- Usage: orders (service, country, number, price, status, times), SMS messages received on numbers you bought, top-ups and payments, API keys (stored as a hash) and API request metadata.
- Security and fraud prevention: IP addresses, a device identifier cookie, browser details, sign-in history, and risk signals on payments.
- Support: messages you send us.
- Identity checks: only if a verification is required for higher limits — the documents you upload for that check.
We do not buy personal data and we do not sell it.
Why we use it
- To provide the Service: create numbers, show codes, keep your balance and history (contract).
- To prevent fraud, abuse and chargebacks, and to enforce the Acceptable Use Policy (legitimate interest).
- To meet legal obligations such as accounting and valid legal requests (legal obligation).
- To send service emails (receipts, security and account notices). Marketing email is sent only if you opt in, and you can unsubscribe at any time (consent).
Who we share it with
- Number suppliers receive only what they need to deliver a number (e.g. service and country) — not your name or email.
- Payment processors receive what they need to process a payment.
- Service providers that host our infrastructure and send email, under data-processing agreements.
- Authorities, only as described in our Law-enforcement request policy.
How long we keep it
- SMS text and phone numbers on your orders are anonymised 180 days after the order.
- Orders, payments and wallet records are kept as financial records for as long as the law requires ([Not set: Financial records kept for]).
- API request logs are kept 7 days; webhook delivery logs 30 days.
- Identity documents are deleted 30 days after the check.
- When you delete your account, your personal details are anonymised; financial records are kept as above.
Your rights
You can access, correct, export or delete your data, and object to or restrict some processing. Most of this is in Settings; for anything else write to [email protected]. You may also complain to your data-protection authority.
Cookies
See the Cookie Policy.
Security
Passwords and API keys are stored as hashes, supplier credentials and 2FA secrets are encrypted, and staff access requires two-factor authentication and is logged.
