You can visit our public web and WAP sites, talk to Vodafone Sales and corporate store representatives without revealing any personal data.

When you give us personal data when ordering products and services, talking to our reps or taking part in one of our marketing campaigns and offers, rest assured we will only use this information within the limits set by law on the protection of personal data. The information you give is used merely to set up and maintain contact between you and Vodafone.

In such case, we will always inform you in advance about how and for what purpose your data will be used. At the same time, we will ensure that your data will only be used in ways consistent with the Czech laws and your interests.

Additionally, you can also provide us with data on your age, phone number and e-mail address, lifestyle or other personal data provided upon registration or in surveys.

For instance, we can send you such information in the form of bill insert or to your personal Internet or WAP site, depending on your preferences and interests that you have expressed.

You have probably noticed that since September 2004 Vodafone's advertisement SMS include the text "Obch. sdeleni-zrus na *077" or its abbreviated version "OS-zrus na *077". This is the way that Vodafone tells you that the SMS sent is a business communication (VodafoneOS) and that sending business communication messages can be cancelled. So if you prefer not to receive Vodafone news, offers and business communication via SMS, you can cancel them. Just call Vodafone Care (*077) and tell our reps about it. They will take care of the rest. And of course, calling Vodafone Care is free of charge!

Data Collection

While you surf the Internet, you can collect and share a large amount of information without even knowing about it. That is, this information is collected and shared for you by cookies, Internet tags or the web beacon.

For example, the URL of the page you have just left is carried over to the new page you open, along with your IP address and current browser version.

If you want, you can set up your browser to notify you whenever it sends cookies, or simply turn off cookies. In this case, however, you have to resign yourself to the fact that some functions will simply no longer work. And what exactly is a cookie, anyway?

It is a part of the information that the website sends to your browser. The page can then remember information about your selections.

So-called “Session Cookies” make up temporary information that improves website navigation. They are erased the moment you turn off your browser or computer.

“Persistent Cookies” are more permanent data placed on your hard drive. They remain there until you erase them. They can store personal information, but only if you agree to it.

The Internet Protocol address, the so-called IP address, is assigned to your computer by your Internet connection provider. Usually it is dynamic. That means that it changes with each connection to the Internet. It is used, for example, in diagnosing problems on the server and for website administration.

Internet tags are smaller than cookies and tell the website server, for example, the IP address and browser type. They can be placed in online ads, where they link the user to a website. They show how many times a given site was opened and what information interested you.
