Your BlackBerry device features an embedded Global Positioning System (GPS) chip
necessary for utilizing E911 emergency location services where available.
When you place an emergency 911 call, the GPS feature of your BlackBerry device begins to
seek information to calculate your approximate location. Depending on several variables,
including availability and access to satellite signals, it may take up to 30 seconds or more to
determine and report your approximate location.
Important: Always report your location to the 911 operator when placing an emergency call. Some
designated emergency call takers, known as Public Safety Answering Points (PSAPs) may not
be equipped to receive GPS location information from your BlackBerry device.

Note: The GPS feature on your BlackBerry device can help emergency personnel determine your location
in instances where you are in a wireless coverage area, your device is able to communicate with a
GPS-enabled satellite, and your emergency response center is equipped to process such
information. However, successful determination of your location is not guaranteed.
YOU SHOULD NOT RELY ON ANY WIRELESS DEVICE FOR ESSENTIAL COMMUNICATIONS,
INCLUDING MEDICAL EMERGENCIES. Emergency numbers may vary by location and emergency
calls may be blocked or impeded by network, environmental, or interference issues.
You can only make emergency calls by typing official emergency access numbers (for example, 
911 in North America).

Frequently Asked Questions

When you add a supported email account (up to 10) to your BlackBerry device, a link is
established between your Sprint Everything Data account and the email account that is
associated with the email address you have added. This link allows you to send and receive
email messages from your BlackBerry device using the email account that you have added.
Email messages continue to be delivered to the original email account as they were before
you added the email account to your BlackBerry device. You also see email messages from
the account that you have added in the message list on your BlackBerry device. Email
messages that you read, file, or delete on your BlackBerry device should be reflected as
read, filed, or deleted wirelessly in your email account. Changes that you make to email
messages from another access interface are not reflected on your BlackBerry device. If you
have a Microsoft Exchange or IBM Lotus Domino work email account, or an IMAP personal
email account, email messages that you send from the BlackBerry device are copied to the
Sent Items folder in your supported email account. Likewise, email messages that you delete
from the BlackBerry device are copied to the Deleted Items folder.
Note: Depending on your email account type or mail implementation, wireless email reconciliation might
not be available for your BlackBerry device.

To synchronize personal information management (PIM) data such as contacts, tasks, and
appointments, you must install the BlackBerry Desktop Software. See “The BlackBerry
Desktop Software” on page 33 for more information.

Frequently Asked Questions

Please note these terms may not be the most current version. A current version of the terms
is available at our website or upon request.

Terms and Conditions
Basic Definitions
In this document: (1) “we,” “us,” “our,” “Nextel,” and “Sprint” mean Sprint Solutions, Inc. and its affiliates
doing business as Sprint, Sprint PCS, or Nextel; (2) “you,” “your,” “customer,” and “user” mean an account
holder or user with us; (3) “Device” means any phone, aircard, mobile broadband device, any other device,
accessory or other product we sell to you or that is active on your account with us; and (4) “Service” means
our offers, rate plans, options, wireless services or Devices on your account with us.

The Service Agreement
The Service Agreement (“Agreement”) is a contract under which we provide and you accept our Services.
In addition to these Terms and Conditions of Service (“Ts&Cs”), there are several parts to the Agreement,
including, but not limited to, the Subscriber Agreement you sign or accept, the detailed plan or other
information on Services we provide or refer you to during the sales transaction, and any confirmation
materials we may provide you. It is important that you carefully read all of the terms of the Agreement.

Services Covered By These Ts&Cs & Additional Terms
These Ts&Cs apply to our standard wireless Services and any other Service we offer you that references
these Ts&Cs. If you are a business customer, your Agreement is exclusively governed by the Standard
Terms and Conditions for Communications Service, the Wireless Services Product Annex, and the
applicable Product specific terms posted at http://www.sprint.com/ratesandconditions. Additional terms and
conditions for Equipt for Business customers may be found at http://www.sprint.com/equipt. Rates and
charges are listed in the Service Plans & Rates Guide for business customers and any supplemental

Conditions of Service

materials. Additional terms will apply when you use certain Services, typically those you can access online
(for example, picture/video Services, online forums, etc.). Additional terms will apply to certain Devices and
applications (the terms may come from Sprint or a third party) and will be provided with the Device or prior
to the use of the application, as applicable. Additional terms will also apply if you activate Services as part of
a bundle with another company’s services (for example, cable services, home phone services, etc.). The
additional terms for bundled Services may either modify or replace certain provisions in these Ts&Cs,
including terms relating to activation, invoicing/payment, and disputing charges. Also, a different dispute
resolution provision may apply to services provided by another company (the dispute resolution provisions
in this Agreement still apply to our Services). You will be provided details on any additional terms with your
selection of any bundled Service.

Our Policies
Services are subject to our business policies, practices and procedures (“Policies”). You agree to adhere to
all of our Policies when you use our Services. Our Policies are subject to change at anytime with or without
notice.

When You Accept The Agreement
You must have the legal capacity to accept the Agreement. You accept the Agreement when you do any of
the following: (a) accept the Agreement through any printed, oral, or electronic statement; (b) attempt to or in
any way use the Services; (c) pay for the Services; or (d) open any package or start any program that says
you are accepting the Agreement when doing so. If you don’t want to accept the Agreement, don’t do any
of these things.

Term Commitments & Early Termination Fees
Many of the Services (for example, Device discounts) that we offer require you to maintain certain Services
with us for a minimum term, usually 1 or 2 years (“Term Commitment”). You will be charged a fee (“Early
Termination Fee”) for each line of Service that you terminate early (i.e., prior to satisfying the Term
Commitment) or for each line of Service that we terminate early for good reason (for example, violating
the payment or other terms of the Agreement), but such Early Termination Fee may be prorated based
on your remaining Term Commitment. Early Termination Fees are a part of our rates. Your exact Term
Commitment and Early Termination Fee may vary based on the Services you select and will be disclosed to
you during the sales transaction. Carefully review any Term Commitment and Early Termination Fee
requirements prior to selecting Services. After you have satisfied your Term Commitment, your
Services continue on a month-to-month basis without any Early Termination Fee, unless you agree to
extend your Term Commitment or agree to a new Term Commitment. As explained directly below, there
are instances when you will not be responsible for an Early Termination Fee for terminating Services early.

58

Service Agreement: General Terms and Conditions of Service

You aren’t responsible for paying an Early Termination Fee when terminating Services: (a) provided on a
month-to-month basis; (b) consistent with our published trial period return policy; or (c) in response to a
materially adverse change we make to the Agreement as described directly below.

Our Right To Change The Agreement & Your Related Rights
We may change any part of the Agreement at any time, including, but not limited to, rates, charges, how
we calculate charges, or your terms of Service. We will provide you notice of material changes, and may
provide you notice of non-material changes, in a manner consistent with this Agreement (see
“Providing Notice To Each Other Under The Agreement” section). If a change we make to the
Agreement is material and has a material adverse effect on Services under your Term Commitment, you
may terminate each line of Service materially affected without incurring an Early Termination Fee only if
you: (a) call us within 30 days after the effective date of the change; and (b) specifically advise us that
you wish to cancel Services because of a material change to the Agreement that we have made. If you
do not cancel Service within 30 days of the change, an Early Termination Fee will apply if you terminate
Services before the end of any applicable Term Commitment.

Our Right To Suspend Or Terminate Services
We can, without notice, suspend or terminate any Service at any time for any reason, including, but not
limited to: (a) late payment; (b) exceeding an Account Spending Limit; (c) harassing/threatening/abusing/
offending our employees or agents; (d) providing false information; (e) interfering with our operations; (f)
using/suspicion of using Services in any manner restricted by or inconsistent with the Agreement; (g)
breaching the Agreement or failing to follow our Policies; (h) providing false, inaccurate, dated or
unverifiable identification or credit information, or becoming insolvent or bankrupt; (i) modifying a Device
from its manufacturer specifications; (j) failing to use our Services for an extended period of time; (k) failing
to maintain an active Device in connection with the Service; or (l) if we believe the action protects our
interests, any customer’s interests or our network.

Your Ability To Change Services & When Changes Are Effective
The account holder can typically change Services upon request. In some instances, changes may be
conditioned on payment of an Early Termination Fee or certain other charges, or they may require a new
Term Commitment. Changes to Services are usually effective at the start of the next full invoicing cycle. If the
changes take place sooner, your invoice may reflect pro-rated charges for your old and new Services. We
may, but are not obligated to, provide you the opportunity to authorize someone else to make changes to
your Services, which will include the authority to make changes that will extend your Term Commitment.

Service Agreement: General Terms and Conditions of Service

59

Terms and Conditions

When You Don’t Have To Pay An Early Termination Fee

You are responsible for any changes to your Services made by a person you authorize and those changes
will be treated as modifications to this Agreement.

Your Right To Terminate Services
You can terminate Services at any time by calling us and requesting that we deactivate all Services. In
addition, if you return or provide your Device to Sprint and fail to either deactivate service on the Device or
activate another Device in connection with your Service, we reserve the right to terminate your Service, and
if you are subject to a Term Commitment, you may be charged all or part of an Early Termination Fee. You
are responsible for all charges billed or incurred prior to deactivation. If Services are terminated before the
end of your invoicing cycle, we won’t prorate charges to the date of termination and you won’t receive a
credit or refund for any unused Services. Except as provided above, you must also pay us an Early
Termination Fee for each line of Service that you terminate early.

Credit Checks & Credit Information
We agree to provide you Services on the condition you have and maintain satisfactory credit according to
our standards and policies. You agree to provide information we may request or complete any applications
we may provide you to facilitate our review. We rely on the credit information you furnish, credit bureau
reports or other data available from commercial credit reference services, and other information (such as
payment history with us) to determine whether to provide or continue to provide you Services. The Services
we offer you can vary based on your credit history. We may at any time, based on your credit history,
withdraw or change Services, or place limits or conditions on the use of our Services. You agree to provide
us updated credit information upon request. We may provide your payment history and other account
billing/charge information to any credit reporting agency or industry clearinghouse.

Account Spending Limits (“ASL”)
An ASL is a temporary or permanent limit (typically based on credit history, payment history, or to prevent
fraud) we place on the amount of unpaid charges you can accumulate on your account, regardless of
when payment on those charges is due. We reserve the right to determine which charges count towards an
ASL. If you have an ASL, we may suspend your Services without prior notice if your account balance
reaches the ASL, even if your account is not past due. We may impose or increase an ASL at any time with
notice. An ASL is for our benefit only and should not be relied on by you to manage usage.

Deposits & Returning Deposits
We may at any time require a deposit, as a guarantee of payment, for you to establish or maintain Service
(“Deposit”). By providing us a Deposit, you grant us a security interest for all current or future amounts owed
to us. We may change the Deposit at any time with notice. You can’t use a Deposit to make or delay

60

Service Agreement: General Terms and Conditions of Service

Restrictions On Using Services
You can’t use our Services: (a) in a way that could cause damage or adversely affect any of our other
customers or our reputation, network, property or Services; or (b) in any way prohibited by the terms of our
Services, the Agreement or our Policies. You cannot in any manner resell the Services to another party. See
our Acceptable Use Policy and Visitor Agreement, which is available on our website, for additional
restrictions on the use of our Services.

Your Device, Number & E-mail Address; Caller ID
We don’t manufacture any Device we might sell to you or that is associated with our Services, and we aren’t
responsible for any defects, acts or omissions of the manufacturer. The only warranties on your Device are
the limited warranties given to you by the manufacturer directly or that we pass through. Your Device is
designed to be activated on the Sprint network and in other coverage areas we make available to you. As
programmed, it will not accept wireless service from another carrier. Except for any legal right you may have
to port/transfer your phone number to another carrier, you have no and cannot gain any (for example,
through publication, use, etc.) proprietary, ownership or other rights to any phone number, identification
number, e-mail address or other identifier we assign to you, your Device or your account. We’ll notify you if
we decide to change or reassign them. Your CDMA Sprint PCS phone has a software programming lock
that protects certain of the handset’s operating parameters against unauthorized reprogramming. If you
wish to obtain the software program lock code for your CDMA Sprint PCS phone, please visit Sprint.com or
call 1-888-211-4727 for information and eligibility requirements.

Porting/Transferring Phone Numbers
We don’t guarantee that number transfers to or from us will be successful. If you authorize another carrier to
transfer a number away from us, that is considered a request by you to us to terminate all of the Services
associated with that number. You’re responsible for all charges billed or incurred prior to deactivation
and for any applicable Early Termination Fees.

Service Agreement: General Terms and Conditions of Service

61

Terms and Conditions

payments. The Deposit, the length of time we hold the Deposit, and changes to the Deposit are determined
based on your credit history, payment history and other factors. Unless prohibited by law, we may mix
Deposits with our other funds and it won’t earn interest and we reserve the right to return the Deposit as a
credit on your invoice at anytime. If your Services are terminated for any reason, we may keep and apply
your Deposit to any outstanding charges. We’ll send any remaining portion of the Deposit to your last
known address within 90 days after your final invoice – if it is returned to us, we will forward it on to the
appropriate state authorities to the extent required by law.

Coverage; Where Your Device Will Work
Our coverage maps are available at our stores and on our website. The specific network coverage you get
will depend on the radio transmissions your Device can pick up and Services you’ve chosen. Our coverage
maps provide high level estimates of our coverage areas when using Services outdoors under optimal
conditions. Coverage isn’t available everywhere and Service speeds are not guaranteed. Service
speeds may depend on the Service purchased. Actual speeds will vary. Estimating wireless coverage,
signal strength, and Service speed is not an exact science. There are gaps in coverage within our
estimated coverage areas that, along with other factors both within and beyond our control (network
problems, network or Internet congestion, software, signal strength, your Device, structures, buildings,
weather, geography, topography, server speeds of the websites you access, etc.), may result in dropped
and blocked connections, slower Service speeds, or otherwise impact the quality of Service. Services
that rely on location information, such as E911 and GPS navigation, depend on your Device’s ability to
acquire satellite signals (typically not available indoors) and network coverage. While your Device is
receiving a software update, you may be unable to use your Device in any manner until the software update
is complete.

Roaming
The term “roaming” typically refers to coverage on another carrier’s network that we may make available to
you based on our agreements with other carriers. These agreements may change from time to time and
roaming coverage is subject to change. Your ability to receive roaming coverage depends on the radio
transmissions your Device can pick up and the availability of roaming coverage. We make no guaranty that
roaming coverage will be available. Roaming coverage may exist both within and outside our network
coverage areas. Your Device will generally indicate when you’re roaming. Depending on your Services,
separate charges or limits on the amount of minutes used while roaming may apply. Certain Services may
not be available or work the same when roaming (including data Services, voicemail, call waiting, etc.).

About Data Services & Content
Our data Services and your Device may allow you to access the internet, text, pictures, video, games,
graphics, music, email, applications, sound and other materials (“Data Content”) or send Data Content
elsewhere. Some Data Content is available from us or our vendors, while other Data Content can be
accessed from others (third party websites, games, ringers, etc.). We make absolutely no guarantees about
the Data Content you access on your Device. Data Content may be: (1) unsuitable for children/minors;
(2) unreliable or inaccurate; or (3) offensive, indecent or objectionable. You’re solely responsible for
evaluating the Data Content accessed by you or anyone on your account. We strongly recommend you
monitor data usage by children/minors. Data Content from third parties may also harm your Device or its
software. To protect our network, Services, or for other reasons, we may place restrictions on accessing

62

Service Agreement: General Terms and Conditions of Service

Specific Terms & Restrictions On Using Data Services
In addition to the rules for using all of our other Services, unless we identify the Service or Device you have
selected as specifically intended for that purpose (for example, wireless routers, Data Link, etc.), you can’t
use our data Services: (1) with server devices or host computer applications, or other systems that drive
continuous heavy traffic or data sessions; (2) as a substitute or backup for private lines or frame relay
connections; or (3) for any other unintended use as we determine in our sole discretion. We reserve the
right to limit, suspend or constrain any heavy, continuous data usage that adversely impacts our network
performance or hinders access to our network. If your Services include web or data access, you also can’t
use your Device as a modem for computers or other equipment, unless we identify the Service or Device
you have selected as specifically intended for that purpose (for example, with “phone as modem” plans,
Sprint Mobile Broadband card plans, wireless router plans, etc.).

Activation & Miscellaneous Charges
Based on our Policies, we may charge activation, prepayment, reactivation, program or other fees to
establish or maintain Services. Certain transactions may also be subject to a charge (for example,
convenience payment, changing phone numbers, handset upgrades, etc.). You will be provided notice of
these types of fees before we complete the requested transaction.

Account & Service Charges
You are responsible for all charges associated with your account and the Services on your account, no
matter who adds or uses the Services. Charges include, but are not limited to, the monthly recurring
charges, usage charges, charges for additional services, taxes, surcharges and fees associated with your
Services. These charges are described or referred to during the sales transaction, in our marketing
materials, and in confirmation materials we may send to you. Depending on your Services, charges for
additional services may include operator and directory assistance, voicemail, call forwarding, data calls,
texts and web access. If you (the account holder) allow end users to access or use your Devices, you
authorize end users to access, download and use Services. For Services offered on a per-day basis, you
will generally be charged for use before or at the time of use. In certain instances, we may charge at some
point after you use the Services. Services offered on a per-day basis end 24 hours after Service is initiated.

Terms and Conditions

certain Data Content (such as certain websites, applications, etc.), impose separate charges, limit
throughput or the amount of data you can transfer, or otherwise limit or terminate Services. If we provide you
storage for Data Content you have purchased, we may delete the Data Content with notice or place
restrictions/limits on the use of storage areas. You may not be able to make or receive voice calls while
using data Services. Data Content provided by our vendors or third parties is subject to cancellation or
termination at any time without notice to you and you may not receive a refund for any unused portion of the
Data Content.

You may have the opportunity to purchase Services on a subscription basis where we assess “subscription
charges” – charges that allow you access to the Services and/or provide you a certain amount of use of the
Services for a defined period of time. Depending on your Service, certain types of subscription charges may
be assessed automatically upon activation and automatically assessed for subsequent subscription
periods. Subscription services offered on a recurring basis do not end until terminated by you or us.
Subscription charges for recurring Services occur at the beginning of each bill cycle. Information regarding
your bill cycle for subscription Services will be provided when you order the Services.

How We Calculate Your Charges For Billing Purposes
Regular Voice Calls: We round up partial minutes of use to the next full minute. Time starts when you press
“Talk” or your Device connects to the network and stops when you press “End” or the network connection
otherwise breaks. You’re charged for all calls that connect, even to answering machines. You won’t be
charged for unanswered calls or if you get a busy signal. For incoming calls answered, you’re charged from
the time shortly before the Device starts ringing until you press END or the network connection otherwise
breaks. If charges vary depending on the time of day that you place or receive calls (for example, Nights
and Weekend plans), you’re charged for the entire call based on the rate that applies to the time period in
which the call starts.
Walkie-Talkie Charges: Charges for walkie-talkie calls are billed to the person who starts the call and
calculated by multiplying the duration of the call by the applicable rate and number of participants. You’re
charged at least 6 seconds of airtime for each call you start; subsequent communications in the same call
are rounded up to and billed to the next second. Time begins when you press any button to start a walkietalkie call and ends approximately 6 seconds after completion of a communication to which no participant
responds – subsequent walkie-talkie communications are considered new calls. Depending on your plan,
nationwide, international or group walkie-talkie calls may use the local walkie-talkie minutes in your plan
and result in additional charges. Responses to call alert transmissions are treated as new walkie-talkie
transmissions even when responding within 6 seconds of receiving the alert. Walkie-talkie billing methods
are subject to change as we introduce new walkie-talkie Services.
Data Usage: Unless we specifically tell you otherwise, data usage is measured in bytes, kilobytes,
megabytes, and gigabytes – not in minutes/time. 1024 bytes equals 1 kilobyte (“KB”), 1024 KB equals 1
megabyte (MB), and 1024 MB equals 1 gigabyte. Bytes are rounded up to kilobytes, so you will be charged
at least 1 KB for each data usage session (“data session”). Rounding occurs at the end of each data
session, and sometimes during a data session. Depending on your data Services, usage may be charged
against an allowance or on a fixed price per KB, and you may be subject to limitations on the amount of
data usage. If you are charged on a fixed price per KB, any fractional cents will be rounded up to the next
cent. You are charged for all data directed to your Device’s internet address, including data sessions you
did not initiate and for incomplete transfers. As long as your Device is connected to our data network, you
may incur data charges. Examples of data you will be charged for includes the size of a requested file or

Service Agreement: General Terms and Conditions of Service

Your Bill
Your bill provides you notice of your charges. It reflects monthly recurring charges (usually billed one bill
cycle in advance) and usage/transaction specific charges (usually billed in the bill cycle in which they’re
incurred). Some usage charges, such as those that depend on usage information from a third party, may be
billed in subsequent bill cycles and result in higher than expected charges for that month. Bill cycles and
dates may change from time to time. Your bill may also include other important notices (for example,
changes to this Agreement, to your Service, legal notices, etc.). Your paper bill may not include itemized
billing detail. More specific billing information is available online. Paper bills with itemized detail may be
subject to an additional charge. Unless prohibited by law, other charges (for example, data Services or
taxes and surcharges) will not include itemized detail but will be listed as total charges for a category. If you
choose internet billing, you will not receive paper bills.

Your Payments; Late Fees
Payment is due in full as stated on your bill. If we do not receive payment in full by the date specified on
your bill, a late payment charge, which may be charged at the highest rate permissible by law, may be
applied to the total unpaid balance. We may also charge you any costs we pay to a collection agency to
collect unpaid balances from you. If we bill you for amounts on behalf of a third party, payments received
are first applied to our charges. You may be charged additional fees for certain methods of payment. We
may charge you, up to the highest amount permitted by law, for returned checks or other payments paid by
you and denied for any reason by a financial institution. Acceptance of payments (even if marked “paid in
full”) does not waive our right to collect all amounts that you owe us. We may restrict your payment methods
to cashier’s check, money order, or other similar secure form of payment at any time for good reason.

Taxes & Government Fees
You agree to pay all federal, state and local taxes, fees and other assessments that we’re required by law to
collect and remit to the government on the Services we provide to you. These charges may change from
time to time without advance notice. If you’re claiming any tax exemption, you must provide us with a valid
exemption certificate. Tax exemptions generally won’t be applied retroactively.

Service Agreement: General Terms and Conditions of Service

Terms and Conditions

Data Content (game, ringer, etc.), web page graphics (logos, pictures, banners, advertisement, etc.),
additional data used in accessing, transporting and routing the file on our network, data from partial or
interrupted downloads, re-sent data, and data associated with unsuccessful attempts to reach websites or
use applications. These data charges are in addition to any charges for the Data Content itself (game,
ringer, etc.). Data used and charged to you will vary widely, even between identical actions or data sessions.
Estimates of data usage – for example, the size of downloadable files – are not reliable predictors of actual
usage. Your bill won’t separately list the number of KB attributed to a specific action/data session.

Surcharges
You agree to pay all surcharges (“Surcharges”), which may include, but are not limited to: Federal Universal
Service, various regulatory charges, Sprint administrative charges, gross receipts charges, and charges for
the costs we incur in complying with governmental programs. Surcharges are not taxes and are not
required by law. They are rates we choose to collect from you and are kept by us in whole or in part. The
number and type of Surcharges may vary depending upon the location of the billing address of the
Device and can change over time. We determine the rate for these charges and these amounts are
subject to change as are the components used to calculate these amounts. We will provide you notice of
any changes to Surcharges in a manner consistent with this Agreement (see “Providing Notice To Each
Other Under The Agreement” section). However, since some Surcharges are based on amounts set by the
government or based on government formulas, it will not always be possible to provide advance notice of
new Surcharges or changes in the amount of existing Surcharges. Information on Surcharges is provided
during the sales transaction and is available on our website.

Disputing Charges - You Must Still Pay Undisputed Charges
Any dispute to a charge on your bill must be made within 60 days of the date of the bill that initially contained the
charge. Disputes can only be made by calling or writing us as directed on your invoice or elsewhere. You accept
all charges not properly disputed within the above time period – undisputed charges must still be paid as stated
on your bill.

Protecting Our Network & Services
We can take any action to: (1) protect our network, our rights and interests, or the rights of others; or (2)
optimize or improve the overall use of our network and Services. Some of these actions may interrupt or
prevent legitimate communications and usage – for example, message filtering/blocking software to
prevent SPAM or viruses, limiting throughput, limiting access to certain websites, applications or other Data
Content, prohibitions on unintended uses (for example, use as a dedicated line, or use as a monitoring
service), etc. For additional information on what we do to protect our customers, network, Services and
equipment, see our Acceptable Use Policy and Visitor Agreement at our website.

Your Privacy
Our Privacy Policy is available on our website. To review the policy, visit www.sprint.com/legal/privacy.html.
This policy may change from time to time, so review it with regularity and care.
Call Monitoring: To ensure the quality of our Services and for other lawful purposes, we may monitor or
record calls between us (for example, your conversations with our customer service or sales departments).

66

Service Agreement: General Terms and Conditions of Service

CPNI: As we provide telecommunications products and Services to you (the account holder), we develop
information about the quantity, technical configuration, type and destination of telecommunications
products and Services you use, as well as some other information found on your bill (“CPNI”). Under
federal law, you have the right, and we have a duty, to protect the confidentiality of your CPNI. For example,
we implement safeguards that are designed to protect your CPNI, including authentication procedures
when you contact us. For some accounts with a dedicated Sprint representative, we may rely on
contacting your pre-established point of contact as the standard authentication measure.
Third-Party Applications: If you use a third-party application, the application may access, collect, use, or
disclose your personal information or require Sprint to disclose your information, including location
information (when applicable), to the application provider or some other third party. If you access, use, or
authorize third-party applications through the Services, you agree and authorize Sprint to provide
information related to your use of the Services or the application(s). You understand that your use of thirdparty applications is subject to the third party’s terms and conditions and policies, including its privacy
policy.
Information on Devices: Your Device may contain sensitive or personal information. Sprint is not
responsible for any information on your Device, including sensitive or personal information. If possible, you
should remove or otherwise safeguard any sensitive or personal information when your Device is out of
your possession or control, including, but not limited to, relinquishing, exchanging, returning, or recycling
your Device. By submitting your Device to us, you agree that our employees, contractors, or vendors may
access all of the information on your Device.

Location Based Services
Our network generally knows the location of your Device when it is outdoors and/or turned on. By using
various technologies to locate your Device, we can provide enhanced emergency 911 services, and
optional location-sensitive services provided by us or a third party. Network coverage or environmental
factors (such as structures, buildings, weather, geography, landscape, and topography) can significantly
impact the ability to access your Device’s location information and use of location-sensitive services.

Service Agreement: General Terms and Conditions of Service

67

Terms and Conditions

Authentication and Contact: You (the account holder) may password protect your account information by
establishing a personal identification number (“PIN”). You may also set a backup security question and
answer in the event you forget your PIN. You agree to protect your PIN, passwords and other account
access credentials like your backup security question from loss or disclosure. You further agree that Sprint
may, in our sole discretion, treat any person who presents your credentials for account access as you or an
authorized user on the account for disclosure of information or changes in Service. You agree that we may
contact you for Service related reasons through the contact information you provide, through the Services
or Devices to which you subscribe or through other available means, including text message, email, fax,
recorded message, mobile, residential or business phone, or mail.

You agree that any authorized user may access, use or authorize Sprint or third-party location-sensitive
applications through the Services. You understand that your use of such location-sensitive applications is
subject to the application’s terms and conditions and policies, including its privacy policy. If you activate
location-sensitive services for devices used by other authorized users, you agree to inform the authorized
user(s) of the terms of use for location-sensitive applications and that the Device may be located. For
additional information on location-sensitive services, see our Privacy Policy at our website.

911 Or Other Emergency Calls
Public Safety Officials advise that when making 911 or other emergency calls, you should always be
prepared to provide your location information. Unlike traditional wireline phones, depending on a number
of factors (for example, whether your Device is GPS enabled, where you are, whether local emergency
service providers have upgraded their equipment, etc.), 911 operators may not know your phone number,
your location or the location of your Device. In certain circumstances, an emergency call may be routed to a
state patrol dispatcher or alternative location set by local emergency service providers. Enhanced 911
service (“E911”), where enabled by local emergency authorities, uses GPS technology to provide location
information. Even when available, however, E911 does not always provide accurate location information. If
your Device is indoors or for some other reason cannot acquire a satellite signal, you may not be located.
Some Devices have a safety feature that prevents use of the keypad after dialing 911 – you should follow
voice prompts when interacting with emergency service providers employing IVR systems to screen calls.

If Your Device Is Lost or Stolen
Call us immediately if your Device is lost or stolen because you may be responsible for usage charges
before you notify us of the alleged loss or theft. A lost or stolen Device does not reduce or remove your
Term Commitment. You will remain liable for any monthly recurring charges associated with the Service
on your Device after you notify us of the alleged loss or theft. You agree to cooperate if we choose to
investigate the matter (provide facts, sworn statements, etc.). We may not waive any Early Termination Fees
if you choose to terminate Services as a result of loss or theft of your Device.

Disclaimer of Warranties
WE MAKE NO REPRESENTATIONS OR WARRANTIES, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING (TO THE
EXTENT ALLOWED BY LAW) ANY IMPLIED WARRANTY OF MERCHANTABILITY, NON-INFRINGEMENT
OR FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE CONCERNING YOUR SERVICES (INCLUDING YOUR
DEVICE). WE DON’T PROMISE UNINTERRUPTED OR ERROR-FREE SERVICES AND DON’T AUTHORIZE
ANYONE TO MAKE WARRANTIES ON OUR BEHALF.

68

Service Agreement: General Terms and Conditions of Service

You agree that neither we nor our vendors, suppliers or licensors are responsible for any damages resulting
from: (a) anything done or not done by someone else; (b) providing or failing to provide Services, including,
but not limited to, deficiencies or problems with a Device or network coverage (for example, dropped,
blocked, interrupted Services, etc.); (c) traffic or other accidents, or any health-related claims relating to our
Services; (d) Data Content or information accessed while using our Services; (e) an interruption or failure in
accessing or attempting to access emergency services from a Device, including through 911, Enhanced
911 or otherwise; (f) interrupted, failed, or inaccurate location information services, (g) information or
communication that is blocked by a spam filter, (h) damage to your Device or any computer or equipment
connected to your Device, or damage to or loss of any information stored on your Device, computer,
equipment, or Sprint storage space from your use of the Services or from viruses, worms, or downloads of
malicious content, materials, data, text, images, video or audio; or (i) things beyond our control, including
acts of God (for example, weather-related phenomena, fire, earthquake, hurricane, etc.), riot, strike, war,
terrorism or government orders or acts. You should implement appropriate safeguards to secure your
Device, computer or equipment and to back-up your information stored on each.

You Agree Our Liability Is Limited - No Consequential Damages.
TO THE EXTENT ALLOWED BY LAW, OUR LIABILITY FOR MONETARY DAMAGES FOR ANY CLAIMS YOU
MAY HAVE AGAINST US IS LIMITED TO NO MORE THAN THE PROPORTIONATE AMOUNT OF THE
SERVICE CHARGES ATTRIBUTABLE TO THE AFFECTED PERIOD. UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES ARE WE
LIABLE FOR ANY INCIDENTAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, PUNITIVE OR SPECIAL DAMAGES OF ANY NATURE
WHATSOEVER ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO PROVIDING OR FAILING TO PROVIDE SERVICES IN
CONNECTION WITH A DEVICE, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, LOST PROFITS, LOSS OF BUSINESS,
OR COST OF REPLACEMENT PRODUCTS AND SERVICES.

DISPUTE RESOLUTION
We Agree To First Contact Each Other With Any Disputes
We each agree to first contact each other with any disputes and provide a written description of the
problem, all relevant documents/information and the proposed resolution. We agree to contact each other
as described in the Providing Notice to Each Other Under The Agreement section of the Ts&Cs.

Instead Of Suing In Court, We Each Agree To Arbitrate Disputes
We each agree to finally settle all disputes (as defined and subject to any specific exceptions below) only by
arbitration. In arbitration, there’s no judge or jury and review is limited. However, just as a court would, the
arbitrator must honor the terms and limitations in the Agreement and can award the same damages and

Terms and Conditions

You Agree We Are Not Responsible For Certain Problems

relief, including any attorney’s fees authorized by law. The arbitrator’s decision and award is final and
binding, with some exceptions under the Federal Arbitration Act (“FAA”), and judgment on the award may
be entered in any court with jurisdiction. We each also agree as follows:
(1) “Disputes” are any claims or controversies against each other related in any way to our Services
or the Agreement, including, but not limited to, coverage, Devices, privacy, or advertising, even if it
arises after Services have terminated – this includes claims you bring against our employees, agents,
affiliates or other representatives, or that we bring against you.
(2) If either of us wants to arbitrate a dispute, we agree to send written notice to the other providing a
description of the dispute, previous efforts to resolve the dispute, all supporting documents/information,
and the proposed resolution. Notice to you will be sent as described in the Providing Notice to Each
Other Under The Agreement section of the Ts&Cs and notice to us will be sent to: General Counsel;
Arbitration Office; 2001 Edmund Halley Drive VARESP0513-502; Reston, Virginia 20191. We agree to
make attempts to resolve the dispute. If we cannot resolve the dispute within forty-five (45) days of receipt
of the notice to arbitrate, then we may submit the dispute to formal arbitration.
(3) The FAA applies to this Agreement and arbitration provision. We each agree the FAA’s provisions, not
state law, govern all questions of whether a dispute is subject to arbitration.
(4) Unless we each agree otherwise, the Arbitration will be conducted by a single neutral arbitrator and
will take place in the county of the last billing address of the Device. We will agree on the arbitrator, and
if we cannot agree, then the arbitrator will be appointed by the court as provided by the FAA.
(5) The arbitration will be governed by the arbitration rules selected by the Arbitrator. The federal or state
law that applies to the Agreement will also apply during the arbitration.
(6) We each agree not to pursue arbitration on a classwide basis. We each agree that any arbitration
will be solely between you and us (not brought on behalf of or together with another individual’s
claim). If for any reason any court or arbitrator holds that this restriction is unconscionable or
unenforceable, then our agreement to arbitrate doesn’t apply and the dispute must be brought in
court.
(7) We each are responsible for our respective costs relating to counsel, experts, and witnesses, as well
as any other costs relating to the arbitration. However, we will cover any arbitration administrative or filing
fees above: (a) $25 if you are seeking less than $1,000 from us; or (b) the equivalent court filing fees for
a court action in the appropriate jurisdiction if you are seeking $1,000 or more from us.

Exceptions To Our Agreement To Arbitrate Disputes
Either of us may bring qualifying claims in small claims court. In addition, this arbitration provision does not
prevent you from filing your dispute with any federal, state or local government agency that can, if the law
allows, seek relief against us on your behalf.

70

Service Agreement: General Terms and Conditions of Service

TO THE EXTENT ALLOWED BY LAW, WE EACH WAIVE ANY RIGHT TO PURSUE DISPUTES ON A
CLASSWIDE BASIS; THAT IS, TO EITHER JOIN A CLAIM WITH THE CLAIM OF ANY OTHER PERSON OR
ENTITY, OR ASSERT A CLAIM IN A REPRESENTATIVE CAPACITY ON BEHALF OF ANYONE ELSE IN ANY
LAWSUIT, ARBITRATION OR OTHER PROCEEDING.

No Trial By Jury
TO THE EXTENT ALLOWED BY LAW, WE EACH WAIVE ANY RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LAWSUIT,
ARBITRATION OR OTHER PROCEEDING.

Indemnification
You agree to indemnify, defend and hold us harmless from any claims arising out of your actions, including,
but not limited to, your use of the Service and any information you submit, post, transmit or make available
via the Service, failing to provide appropriate notices regarding location-sensitive services (see “Location
Based Services” section), failure to safeguard your passwords, backup question to your shared secret
question or other account information, or violating this Agreement or any policy referenced in this
Agreement, any applicable law or regulation or the rights of any third party.

Providing Notice To Each Other Under The Agreement
Except as the Agreement specifically provides otherwise, you must provide us notice by calling or writing us
as instructed on your invoice. We will provide you notice through one or more of the following: in your bill,
correspondence to your last known billing address, to any fax number or e-mail address you’ve provided
us, by calling you on your Device or any other phone number you’ve provided us, by voice message on
your Device or any other phone number you’ve provided us, or by text message on your Device.

71

Terms and Conditions

No Class Actions

Other Important Terms
Subject to federal law or unless the Agreement specifically provides otherwise, this Agreement is
governed solely by the laws of the state encompassing the billing address of the Device, without regard to
the conflicts of law rules of that state. If either of us waives or doesn’t enforce a requirement under this
Agreement in an instance, we don’t waive our right to later enforce that requirement. Except as the
Agreement specifically provides otherwise, if any part of the Agreement is held invalid or unenforceable,
the rest of this Agreement remains in full force and effect. This Agreement isn’t for the benefit of any 3rd
party except our corporate parents, affiliates, subsidiaries, agents, and predecessors and successors in
interest. You can’t assign the Agreement or any of your rights or duties under it. We can assign the
Agreement. You cannot in any manner resell the Services to another party. The Agreement and the
documents it incorporates make up the entire agreement between us and replaces all prior written or
spoken agreements – you can’t rely on any contradictory documents or statements by sales or service
representatives. The rights, obligations and commitments in the Agreement that, by their nature, would
logically continue beyond the termination of Services (including, but not limited to, those relating to billing,
payment, 911, dispute resolution, no class action, no jury trial), survive termination of Services.
