The company is “Freedom Internet” in St. Cruz, Tenerife.
I’ve posted a review calling them out but they are stating:
- What they are doing is entirely legal <-- Source for pre-ticked checkboxes: https://www.natlawreview.com/article/top-european-court-rules-pre-checked-cookie-consent-boxes-invalid – Source for not having a privacy policy that is referenced in contract: https://gdpr.eu/data-privacy/
- That the contract states they only share information with installers so they can provide the service… <-- this is an outright lie as per the privacy policy.
Can anyone tell me if the above is true?
They agreed to remove clause #2 (promotional offers) but said 1 and 3 checkboxes must be kept.
Also, can anyone access their privacy policy? I reported it as being a faulty URL but they state it works…

They might fix it if you ask them to go download the PDF from the link and send it to you as an attachment. Then they’ll find out the link doesn’t work for themselves. I think the URL being bad is more that they forgot to update it.
I’ve had to make compromises to get internet service here in the US; I hoped the EU might be better but maybe not. Sorry mate!
Have you considered starting your own ISP? 😅
I asked them to check it(the privacy URL) and validate it wasn’t user error and they accused me of “wasting their time”…
No need to apologize, I’m just trying to get clarity if I’m right to call them out or not…
Great customer support lmao
