Location Information Protection

Location Services: Determine the Location of Your Phone

Location Services collects and provides location information for location-based apps (such as weather,

maps, travel, and shopping apps) on your Phone. The approximate location of your Phone is

determined by GPS positioning (if GPS is enabled and the service is available), mobile network data,

and Wi-Fi positioning (if enabled). If GPS positioning is disabled, apps can still collect location

information in other ways.

Enable or Disable Location Services

After obtaining the location information permission, apps can obtain your location at any time. If your

location information is obtained by a malicious app, you may be at risk of harm or fraud. You can

enable or disable location services as needed and regularly monitor and manage the allowed

permissions for your apps to protect your privacy and security.

Enable or disable location services: Open Settings, go to Security & privacy > Location

services, and enable or disable Access to my location. When location services are enabled, you can

also set the appropriate positioning mode. When location services are disabled, aside for pre-installed

software (such as Find my Phone), your Phone will stop all apps and services from collecting and using

your location information. The system will ask you to enable location services when you attempt to

use these apps.

lUse Wi-Fi and mobile networks: Calculates your Phone's location using carrier base station

location information or nearby Wi-Fi router location information. The accuracy of the location

information depends largely upon location information gathered from the base station or Wi-Fi

network. Accuracy normally ranges from 100 metres to several kilometres. Network positioning has

low accuracy, but allows for positioning while indoors and uses less battery power.

lUse GPS only: Only uses satellites found by your Phone's GPS to determine your position. No

network connection is needed. GPS satellite positioning is more accurate but also uses more battery.

It is accurate within tens of metres. However, indoor positioning may be inaccurate.

lUse GPS, Wi-Fi and mobile networks: Combines the benets of GPS positioning and networking

positioning for accurate indoor and outdoor positioning.

lFeatures may vary depending on your carrier.

lHuawei only uses location data to provide you with necessary functions and services, not for

the purpose of identifying and collecting your private information.

Set indoor positioning assistance: Open Settings, go to Security & privacy > Location

services > > Scan settings, and enable or disable Wi-Fi and Bluetooth scanning. Scanning Wi-Fi

networks and Bluetooth devices will improve the accuracy of indoor positioning.

Use App Lock to Lock Important Apps

App lock allows you to set a password for your WeChat, Alipay, and other important apps. Once you

restart your Phone or unlock the Phone screen, you will be asked to enter your App lock password

when initially opening the apps. App lock enhances the protection of your private information and

prevents unauthorised access to important apps on your device.

Enable App lock: Open Settings. Go to Security & privacy > App lock, and follow the

onscreen instructions to set a password, then enable App lock for the apps you want to protect.

When you initially open a locked app, follow the onscreen instructions to enter your password and

the answer to your security question.

If you have set up a ngerprint to unlock your Phone and are setting up your App lock password

for the rst time, you can follow the onscreen instructions to associate your ngerprint for easier

app unlocking.

Modify your App lock password: Touch on the App lock screen and touch Change password

or Change password protection to modify your App lock password.

Enhanced Data Protection: Defend Your Privacy

Worried that your photos, bank account information, or other private data might get leaked if your

Phone is lost or stolen? Huawei Phones now feature security chips in addition to the combined

protection provided by the trusted root key and lock screen password. Whether your data is stored in

a microSD card or internal storage, it will receive the highest level of protection.

Stronger encryption and safeguards: Huawei Phones use a hardware key that cannot be used to

decrypt data when separated from the Phone. Based on the trusted root key, the encrypted

components are incorporated into the memory control chip to enhance the data protection capability

of the hardware. This works together with your lock screen password to protect your private data.

When you use PrivateSpace, Multi-user, encrypted microSD les, or other features to encrypt photos,

personal information, or other personal data, the only way your data can possibly be decrypted is if

the trusted root key, lock screen password, and security chip are simultaneously cracked.Not all

devices support microSD cards.
