Setting Up

Charging the Battery

You must charge your Treo fully before using it. It may not turn on at all when you

ﬁrst remove it from the box.

•Plug the AC charger into a wall outlet.

•Connect the charger cable to the bottom of the Treo with the word UP facing

the same way as your Treo screen.

•Wait for the LED to turn solid green. This may take up to 3 hours.

Important Note:

It is vital that you use only Sprint-approved AC adapter chargers. Use of

unauthorized accessories could damage your phone and invalidate your warranty.

LED

•Conﬁrm your Treo is charging by checking the LED. If the battery is fully

drained, it may take a few moments for the LED to turn on while charging.



Red LED



Green LED

: battery is fully charged.



LED off: battery is not charging. Check the cable connection and the outlet to

which it is connected.

•After you set up your Treo, the onscreen battery gauge displays power status:

Full battery icon : battery is charged.

Partial battery icon : battery has some power but is not fully charged.

Empty battery icon : battery needs charging immediately.

Red lightning bolt : battery is charging.

Green lightning bolt : battery is fully charged.

Battery life

Battery life depends on individual use. Consumption factors include signal

strength, backlight and speakerphone use, and whether calls are data or voice

calls.

When Wireless Mode is on, the Treo battery provides approximately 4 hours of

talk time or approximately 10 days of standby time on the PCS, 1900 MHz band.

Talk time is slightly lower when roaming on the cellular 800Mhz band. When

Wireless Mode is off, the battery provides about 4 weeks of normal use.

If the battery drains to the point where your Treo doesn’t turn on, the Treo stores

your data safely for about 3 days. We recommend that you charge and synchronize

your Treo every day, especially if you use your phone often.

Setting Up

Maximizing battery life

You can increase the life of your Treo battery by following a few easy guidelines.

Remember that battery life depends on how you use your Treo.

•Charge your Treo whenever you’re at your desk. The Li-Ion battery has a much

longer useful life when it is topped off frequently, versus charging it after it is

fully drained.

•The wireless features of your Treo (phone, email, messaging, and web) consume

more power than its organizer features. However, if you spend a lot of time

using the camera, games, media players, eBooks, or other Palm OS applications,

keep an eye on the battery level and charge when necessary.

•If you don’t plan to use the wireless features on your Treo for a while, you may

want to turn off Wireless Mode. See page 27. You can forward calls to a different

number or let all calls be picked up by voicemail. See page 56.

•As with any mobile phone, if you are in an area with no wireless coverage, your

Treo searches for a signal, which consumes power. If you cannot move to an

area of better coverage, you may wish to temporarily turn off Wireless Mode.

•Use the keyboard backlight (see page 34) only when you need it. Turn down the

screen brightness (see page 127).

•Decrease the Auto-off setting in General Preferences. See page 135. This turns

off your screen automatically after a shorter period of inactivity.

Preparing Your Computer

Synchronization allows you to enter information on your computer in an

application called Palm Desktop or in Microsoft Outlook and then efﬁciently

transfer that information to your Treo. At the same time, changes you make on the

Treo are transferred to Palm Desktop software or to Microsoft Outlook. Even if

you manage all your contacts on your Treo, synchronization is a great way to back

up your data.

Before you can synchronize, you need to install the Palm Desktop synchronization

software on your computer. Even if you already own a Palm Powered device and

have installed a previous version of the Palm Desktop software, install the

software that comes on the CD with your Treo.

We strongly recommend that you install the Palm Desktop synchronization

software soon after you start using your Treo, and that you synchronize your Treo

and computer frequently to keep your information up-to-date (and backed up) in

both locations.

Turning Your Phone On and Off

You can use the Palm OS features of your Treo independently of the wireless

features and applications. Therefore, the screen and Wireless Mode are designed to

be turned off and on separately.

Turning Wireless Mode ON

Wireless Mode connects your Treo to the PCS network so that you can make and

receive phone calls and use other wireless services.

Press and hold the Wireless Mode button to turn on Wireless Mode. (You will

hear a series of ascending tones and the phone displays “Welcome” and then

“Searching for Service” until it locates a signal.) At this point, Wireless Mode is

on and you’re ready to begin making and receiving calls and using the Internet

features (if supported by the local network).

Turning Wireless Mode OFF

When Wireless Mode is off, your Treo is not connected to the PCS network. You

can still use its other Palm OS features. This is ideal for airplane ﬂights and

maximizing battery life.

Press and hold the Wireless Mode button again to turn off Wireless Mode.

You will hear a series of descending tones and a “Goodbye.” message appears

on the screen.

Turning the Screen On and Off

Installing Applications

Your Treo comes with several applications built-in and ready to use. You can also

install any of the more than 16,000 third-party Palm OS applications for use on

your Treo, such as business software, games, and other applications.

When you download an application to your computer, it is probably in a

compressed format such as a .zip or .sit ﬁle. If the ﬁle is compressed, you need to

use a decompression utility on your computer, before you install applications on

your Treo.

These instructions tell you how to install basic .prc (Palm OS application) and .pdb

(Palm OS database) ﬁles onto your Treo. Some Palm OS software uses an automatic

installer or wizard to guide you through the process. Consult the documentation

that came with the software for details about how to install a particular piece of

software. Treo is not compatible with .pqa ﬁles.

Before you can install an application on your Treo, you need to have the Palm

Desktop synchronization software installed on your computer. See page 21.

Installing Applications From the Internet

You can install Palm OS applications directly from the Internet, using the Blazer

Web Browser. When you download an application, it automatically installs on your

Treo. Remember: Palm OS applications have .prc or .pdb at the end of their

ﬁlenames.

Upgrading From Another Palm Powered Device

Note for Macintosh Users: A special README ﬁle on the Treo 600 CD contains instructions to

make sure you don’t encounter compatibility issues when you upgrade to Treo 600. Follow the

instructions in this README ﬁle for a smooth transition.

To transfer all compatible applications and data from your previous device to your

new Treo:

1. Perform a HotSync operation with your old device and your old desktop

software to back up your data one last time.

2. Install the Palm Desktop synchronization software from the CD that came with

your Treo (see page 21). During the installation process, perform a HotSync

operation with your new Treo. When prompted to choose a user name for your

new Treo, be sure to select the existing user name for your old device.

3. Some third-party applications may be quarantined by the HotSync Manager

because they are not compatible with the Palm OS 5.2 on your Treo. Do not

manually install any quarantined ﬁles.

4. If you plan to continue using your old device, perform a hard reset (see page

153) to remove its associated user name. Each device you synchronize with

your computer must have a unique name. The next time you synchronize with

your old device, be sure to assign it a new user name.

After upgrading, there are a few things you need to know about your new Treo:

Address Book is now called Contacts. To launch Contacts, press Phone , then

use the 5-way navigation control to choose Contacts.

Date Book+ is now called Calendar. Press Calendar to launch.

Applications Launcher. Some previous Palm Powered devices called this the Home

screen. To access this screen, press Applications Launcher .

Find. Some previous Palm Powered devices launched this global search engine

by tapping the magnifying glass icon in the Grafﬁti area. Now you can access it

by pressing Option and Shift together.

Menu commands. Users familiar with Grafﬁti’s Menu launch command can now

access system menus by pressing Menu . To access a menu shortcut, press

Menu , then the letter for the shortcut. See page 32.

Backlight. Treo includes a keyboard backlight that also dims the screen slightly

for low light conditions. While your Treo screen is on, press Option then

to turn on the keyboard backlight.

Center button. If you used a previous Treo phone, you might be accustomed to

pressing Spacebar to activate commands or dial numbers. With this Treo phone,

we recommend pressing Center instead.

Screen button. The fourth button on the right is used to control the screen and is

not an application button. However, you can remap this button to your favorite

application if you wish. See page 131.

Internet connection. This Treo was designed to work on the Sprint PCS Vision

Network. When you sign up for a PCS Vision account, these settings are

automatically transferred to your Treo; you don't need to do any extra setup. If

you have trouble connecting to the Internet, you may need to contact Sprint

and ask them to re-provision your Treo 600 for PCS Vision.

5-way navigation compatibility. Some Palm OS 5 applications are optimized for 5-

way navigation on devices other than Treo. Therefore you may notice

inconsistencies with software that is not designed with Treo in mind. Contact

Trouble Installing Palm Desktop?

The software included with your Treo installs the drivers that let you synchronize

with Palm Desktop software or Microsoft Outlook for Windows. If you want to

synchronize with a different Personal Information Management (PIM) application,

you must install a third-party solution. Contact the PIM’s author or vendor to learn

if software is available for the PIM.

1. Restart your computer.

2. Quit any active applications, including virus scanners and Internet security

applications.

3. Make sure you’re installing the version of Palm Desktop that came on the CD

with your Treo. Other versions of Palm Desktop may not work with this Treo.

4. Make sure your computer proﬁle includes administrator rights to install

software. In large organizations, these are usually granted by the system

administrator.

Resetting Your Treo

Soft Reset

A soft reset is similar to restarting a computer. If your Treo is not responding or

you have trouble synchronizing with your computer, a soft reset may help. Unless

your battery is extremely low, a soft reset should not affect your data.

1. Unscrew the stylus tip to access the reset tool.

2. Use the reset tool to gently press the reset button on the back of your Treo.

System Reset

A system reset, also called a safe or warm reset, tells your Treo to stop what it’s

doing and start over again without loading any system extras. If your Treo loops or

freezes during a soft reset, a system reset may help. Performing a system reset

allows you to get out of an endless loop in order to uninstall a third-party

application causing the looping. Unless your battery is extremely low, a system

reset should not affect your data.

If you need to perform a system reset and disable conﬂicting applications, always

end the process with a soft reset. This returns your Treo to normal operation.

Synchronization (HotSync)

Synchronization lets you back up your Treo data onto your computer. If you ever

need to perform a hard reset or otherwise erase all your data on your Treo, you can

perform a HotSync operation to restore the data from your computer. To make

sure you always have an up-to-date backup of your data, synchronize frequently.

Before you attempt a HotSync operation, make sure you have installed the Palm

Desktop and HotSync Manager software from the CD that came with your Treo.

Every device needs a unique name. Never synchronize more than one device to

the same user name on your computer.

Desktop Does Not Respond to HotSync Attempt

As you complete the following steps, perform a HotSync operation after each step.

If the synchronization is successful, you do not need to complete the remaining

steps. If the synchronization is not successful, continue to the next step.

Picture Mail

The Picture Mail application takes pictures at Small picture size (160x120 pixels)

and Large picture size (640x480 pixels, or 0.3 megapixel). Here are some tips for

taking good pictures with the built-in camera:

Clean the camera’s lens with a soft, lint-free cloth.

Take pictures in brighter lighting conditions. Low-light images may be grainy,

due to the sensitivity of the camera.

Hold the camera as still as possible. You may want to support your picture-

taking arm up against your body or a stationary object (such as a wall).

Keep the subject of the pictures still. Exposure time is longer with lower light

levels, so you may see a blur.

For best results, verify that you have the brightest light source coming from

behind you, lighting the subject’s face. Don’t take indoor pictures with the

subject in front of a window or light.

Make sure the subject is at least 16 inches away from the camera to ensure good

focus.

Remember, when you synchronize, your Picture Mail images are stored in the Treo

Pictures folder on your hard drive (see page 68).

Making Room On Your Treo

If you store a large number of records, or install many third-party applications, the

internal memory on your Treo may ﬁll up. Here are some common ways to clear

space on your Treo:

Picture Mail. Pictures can consume excessive memory. Move your pictures to an

expansion card or upload them to your account on the Picture Mail Web site,

and then delete large ﬁles from your Treo. See page 66.

Internet. If you have set a large Blazer Web Browser cache, you may wish to clear

the cache. See page 82.

Third-party applications. You can delete infrequently used applications or move

them to an expansion card. See page 112.

Email. If you installed a third-party email application, you may have large

attachments that can quickly consume memory on your Treo. Delete emails

with large attachments. If you have hundreds of messages with or without

attachments, you may wish to delete older messages to make room.

Also, remember that your Treo includes an expansion slot, and that you can store

applications and data on expansion cards. However, you still need some free

memory on the Treo itself to run applications from an expansion card.

Important Information About Your Phone and Service

Keeping Tabs on Signal Strength

The quality of each call you make or receive depends on the signal strength in your area. Your

phone informs you of the current signal strength by displaying a number of bars next to the

signal strength icon. The more bars displayed, the stronger the signal. If you’re inside a building,

being near a window may give you better reception.

Understanding the Power Save Feature

If your phone is unable to ﬁnd a signal after 15 minutes of searching, a Power Save feature is

automatically activated. If your phone is active, it periodically rechecks service availability or

you can check it yourself by pressing any key. Anytime the Power Save feature is activated, a

message displays on the screen. When a signal is found, your phone returns to standby mode.

Understanding How Your Phone Operates

Your phone is basically a radio transmitter and receiver. When it's turned on, it receives and

transmits radio frequency (RF) signals. When you use your phone, the system handling your call

controls the power level. This power can range from 0.006 watts to 0.2 watts in digital mode.

Maintaining Your Phone’s Peak Performance

There are several simple guidelines to operating your phone properly and maintaining safe,

satisfactory service.

Hold the phone with the antenna over your shoulder.

Try not to hold, bend or twist the phone’s antenna.

Don’t use the phone if the antenna is damaged.

Speak directly into the mouthpiece.

Avoid exposing your phone and accessories to rain or liquid spills. If your phone does get wet,

immediately turn the power off. If it’s inoperable, return it to a Sprint Store or call PCS

Customer Solutions for service.

Note: For the best care of your phone, only Sprint Authorized Personnel should service your phone and

accessories. Faulty service may void the warranty.

Maintaining Safe Use of and Access to Your Phone

FAILURE TO FOLLOW THE INSTRUCTIONS OUTLINED MAY LEAD TO SERIOUS PERSONAL INJURY

AND POSSIBLE PROPERTY DAMAGE.

Using Your Phone While Driving

Talking on your phone while driving (or operating the phone without a hands-free device) is

prohibited in some jurisdictions. Laws vary as to speciﬁc restrictions. Remember that safety always

comes ﬁrst.

When using your phone in the car:

Get to know your phone and its features, such as speed dial and redial.

When available, use a hands-free device.

Position your phone within easy reach.

Let the person you are speaking to know you are driving; if necessary, suspend the call in heavy

trafﬁc or hazardous weather conditions.

Do not take notes or look up phone numbers while driving.

Dial sensibly and assess the trafﬁc; if possible, place calls when stationary or before pulling into

trafﬁc.

Do not engage in stressful or emotional conversations that may divert your attention from the road.

Dial 911 to report serious emergencies. It’s free from your wireless phone.

Use your phone to help others in emergencies.

Call roadside assistance or a special non-emergency wireless number when necessary.

Tip: Purchase an optional Hands-Free Car Kit.

Following Safety Guidelines

To operate your phone safely and efﬁciently, always follow any special regulations in a given area.

Turn your phone off in areas where use is forbidden or when it may cause interference or danger.

Using Your Phone Near Other Electronic Devices

Most modern electronic equipment is shielded from radiofrequency (RF) signals. However, RF

signals from wireless phones may affect inadequately shielded electronic equipment.

RF signals may affect improperly installed or inadequately shielded electronic operating systems

and/or entertainment systems in motor vehicles. Check with the manufacturer or their

representative to determine if these systems are adequately shielded from external RF signals. Also

check with the manufacturer regarding any equipment that has been added to your vehicle.

Consult the manufacturer of any personal medical devices, such as pacemakers and hearing aids, to

determine if they are adequately shielded from external RF signals.

Safety & Warranty

Note: Always turn off the phone in health care facilities and request permission before using the phone near

medical equipment.

Turning Off Your Phone Before Flying

Turn off your phone before boarding any aircraft. To prevent possible interference with aircraft

systems, the U.S. Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) regulations require you to have

permission from a crew member to use your phone while the plane is on the ground. To prevent

any risk of interference, FCC regulations prohibit using your phone while the plane is in the air.

Turning Off Your Phone in Dangerous Areas

To avoid interfering with blasting operations, turn your phone off when in a blasting area or in

other areas with signs indicating two-way radios should be turned off. Construction crews often

use remote-control RF devices to set off explosives.

Turn your phone off when you're in any area that has a potentially explosive atmosphere.

Although it's rare, your phone and accessories could generate sparks. Sparks can cause an

explosion or ﬁre, resulting in bodily injury or even death. These areas are often, but not always,

clearly marked. They include:

Fueling areas such as gas stations.

Below deck on boats.

Fuel or chemical transfer or storage facilities.

Areas where the air contains chemicals or particles such as grain, dust or metal powders.

Any other area where you would normally be advised to turn off your vehicle’s engine.

Note: Never transport or store ﬂammable gas, liquid or explosives in the compartment of your vehicle that

contains your phone or accessories.

Restricting Children’s Access to Your Phone

Your phone is not a toy. Do not allow children to play with it as they could hurt themselves and

others, damage the phone or make calls that increase your phone bill.

Caring for Your Phone Battery

Protecting Your Battery

The guidelines listed below help you get the most out of your battery’s performance.

Use only Sprint-approved chargers. These chargers are designed to maximize battery life. Using

other chargers voids your warranty and may cause damage.

In order to avoid damage, charge the battery only in temperatures that range from

32º F to113º F. (0º C to 45º C).

Don’t use the battery charger in direct sunlight or in high humidity areas, such as the bathroom.

Acknowledging Special Precautions and the FCC Notice

FCC Statement

This device complies with part 15 of the FCC rules. Operation is subject to the following two

conditions: (1) This device may not cause harmful interference, and (2) this device must accept any

interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation.

This device has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device,

pursuant to part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection

against harmful interference in a residential installation. This equipment generates, uses, and can

radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instructions,

may cause harmful interference to radio communications. However, there is no guarantee that

interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause harmful

interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment

off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the following

measures:

Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna

Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver

Connect the equipment into an outlet or circuit different from that to which the receiver is

RF Safety Exposure To Radio Frequency Energy (SAR)

Radio transmitting devices radiate Radio Frequency (RF) energy during its operation. RF energy

can be absorbed into the human body and potentially can cause adverse health effects if

excessive levels are absorbed. The unit of measurement for human exposure to RF energy is

“Speciﬁc Absorption Rate” (SAR).

The Federal Communications Commission (FCC), Industrie Canada (IC), and other agencies

around the world have established limits that incorporate a substantial safety margin designed to

assure the safety of all persons using this equipment.

In order to certify this unit for sale in the US, Canada and Europe this unit has been tested for RF

exposure compliance at a qualiﬁed test laboratory and found to comply with the regulations

regarding exposure to RF Energy.

SAR was measured with the unit transmitting at its maximum certiﬁed RF power. Often,

however, during normal operation the unit will transmit much less than maximum power.

Transmit power is controlled automatically and, in general is reduced as you get closer to a

cellular base station. This reduction in transmit power will result in a lower RF energy exposure

and resulting SAR value.

FCC RF Safety Statement

In order to comply with FCC RF exposure safety guidelines, users MUST use one of the

following types of body-worn accessories.

1. A Handspring brand body-worn accessory that has been tested for SAR compliance and is

intended for use with this product.

2. An accessory that contains NO metal (snaps, clips, etc.) and provides AT LEAST 1 cm of

separation between the users body and the unit.

Do NOT use the device in a manner such that it is in direct contact with the body (i.e. on the lap

or in a breast pocket). Such use will likely exceed FCC RF safety exposure limits See

www.fcc.gov/oet/rfsafety/ for more information on RF exposure safety.

Antenna Care/Unauthorized Modiﬁcations

Use only the supplied integral antenna. Unauthorized antenna modiﬁcations or attachments

could damage the unit and may violate FCC regulations. Any changes or modiﬁcations not

expressly approved by the party responsible for compliance could void the user's authority to

operate the equipment.

Agreement. Your agreement (“Agreement”) with Sprint Spectrum L.P. and any of its Afﬁliates doing

business as Sprint providing PCS Services (“Services”) to you is made up of these Terms and

Conditions of Service (“Terms”) and the Service Plan that we agree to provide you. Your “Service

Plan” is described in our marketing materials, and includes the rates and features we set for that

Service Plan. We use the words “we,” “us,” “our” or “Sprint” to refer to Sprint Spectrum L.P. and its

Afﬁliates doing business as Sprint in these Terms. When you activate PCS Services or attempt to use

our PCS Services (including, without limitation, attempting to place a call on the Sprint Nationwide

PCS Network, or off the Sprint Nationwide PCS Network when roaming, including “911” or similar

calls), you accept the Agreement.

Provision of Service. Your purchase of PCS Phones or other equipment does not mean that we

must provide Services to you. We may decide not to provide Services to you for any lawful reason.

We may request that you provide us with any information we reasonably require to determine

whether you qualify for Services. Services in some areas are managed and provided under contract

with Sprint by independent Afﬁliates with access to the Sprint Nationwide PCS Network. Some

Services may not be available or may operate differently in certain Afﬁliate markets.

Credit Veriﬁcation. You must have and keep satisfactory credit to receive and continue to receive

Services. We will verify your credit before agreeing to provide Services to you and we may verify

your credit at any time while we provide Services to you. Credit veriﬁcation may include a review

of credit reports that we receive from commercially available credit bureaus. We may require a

guarantee of payment by an individual or entity approved by us. If at any time we determine, in our

sole discretion, that payment for Services may not be made when due, we may suspend Services to

your phone and require that you provide payment on account or a guarantee of payment before we

resume Services to your phone.

Changes to Agreement. We may change this Agreement at any time (but see PCS Service Plan).

Any changes to the Terms are effective when we publish the revised Terms. If you use our

Services or make any payment to us on or after the effective date of the changes, you accept the

changes. If you do not accept the changes, you may terminate Services (but see Termination and

Changing Service Plans). For purposes of the Agreement, “use” includes keeping the right to

access the Sprint Nationwide PCS Network by not terminating Services. You may not modify the

Agreement except for your PCS Service Plan (see Termination and Changing Service Plans).

Service Plan. You may be eligible for a ﬁxed length PCS Service Plan (“Term Service Plan”) or

for a month-to-month Service Plan (“Non-Term Service Plan”). We determine the Service Plan for

which you qualify. We may offer non-identical Service Plans to different individuals or entities.

Services and coverage under some Service Plans may be more limited than available under other

Service Plans. Your Service Plan sets out the charges for Services and is your Service Plan until

that Service Plan is changed, you switch to a different Service Plan, or your Services terminate.

Your Service Plan may require that you make a deposit, prepayment, or a series of deposits or

prepayments, or be subject to an account spending limit, before Services are activated or

maintained.

Changing Service Plans. If you are on a Non-Term Service Plan, you may change to a different

Service Plan for which you qualify. Any change is effective at the start of your next full invoicing

cycle unless otherwise speciﬁed by us at the time that you place your change order. If you

change or add a different Service Plan or service feature and the change is effective prior to the

start of your next full invoicing cycle, you will be invoiced a prorated amount. We may require a

service charge for implementing any change directed by you as well as the Service Plan or

optional service features you select. If you are on a Term Service Plan, your ability to change to

another Service Plan may be limited and we may require you to pay a termination fee as set out

in your Service Plan.

Use of Services and Equipment; Availability. You must be at least 18 years old to subscribe to

our Services. We may require you to provide proof of your age and identity. If you are under 18

years old you may be eligible for certain Services that have Account Spending Limits if a person

18 years or older is also named as a subscriber on the Account. Services and equipment may not

be used for any unlawful, fraudulent or abusive purpose. By requesting Services, you agree that

you will not use Services and equipment in any unlawful, fraudulent or abusive manner. You may

not resell or lease Services or equipment to anyone. Services are available within the operating

range of the Sprint Nationwide PCS Network. Coverage and quality of Services may be affected

by conditions within or beyond our control, including atmospheric, geographic, or topographic

conditions. We do not guarantee that there will be no interruptions or delays in Services. Your

PCS Phone will not accept the services of any wireless provider other than Sprint (but see

Roaming).

Safety & Warranty

Number. We assign a phone number (“Number”) to the phone or other equipment used by you on

the Sprint Nationwide PCS Network. We may change the Number without compensation by giving

you prior notice. You do not own the Number. You may not modify the Number we program into

any phone or other equipment, transfer or duplicate the Number to any phone or other equipment

other than that authorized by us, or transfer the Number to any other individual or entity.

Phone Activation Fee. You may be required to pay a non-refundable phone activation fee when

you activate a new Number, have us switch a Number to a different phone, have your current

Number changed, we activate a different phone on your existing account or your Service Plan says

so. Details on any applicable phone activation fee are set out in your Service Plan or can be

obtained by calling PCS Customer Service Solutions.

Charges. For most forms of wireless Service, your usage will be charged from the time you ﬁrst

initiate contact between your phone or other wireless device and the network until the network

connection is broken, whether or not you are successful in connecting with the service with

which you seek to connect, even if the connection is later broken or dropped. An exception is that

you are not charged for voice calls that are not completed. You are charged for completed calls to

your Number from the time shortly before the phone starts ringing until the call is terminated by

either party. You will be charged peak rates for the entire duration of calls initiated during the peak

time periods applicable to your Service. You will be charged off-peak rates for the entire duration

of calls initiated during the off-peak time periods applicable to your Service. In addition to these

usage charges, you may be charged for recurring monthly service charges, applicable local and

long-distance toll charges, other usage charges, connection fees, roaming charges, directory

assistance, call completion charges, account review and management charges optional features you

select at an extra cost, and taxes and other regulatory-related charges. Charges for most Services are

incurred in one-minute increments, with partial minutes of use rounded up to the next highest

minute. You must pay, by each invoice due date, all charges for Services provided to the Number

for each phone or other equipment that our records show you activated, no matter who actually

uses or has possession of the phone or other equipment at the time Services are provided.

PCS Vision (Third Generation) Wireless Charges. For PCS Vision wireless services, you will be

charged, on a per kilobyte basis, for Web access, whether sent or received by your PCS Phone or

other wireless device, rather than for airtime used, even for certain PCS Vision voice services. As

long as your PCS Phone or other wireless device is connected to the enhanced (Third Generation)

Sprint Nationwide PCS Network, you will be incurring data usage charges. You cannot receive

incoming calls while using third generation services. Data packet usage will be measured in

kilobytes and will be rounded up to the next whole kilobyte. Kilobyte usage will be rounded up to

the next full cent. Rounding up will occur at the end of each separate session or each clock hour

(at the top of each hour), if the session spans more than 1 clock hour. When traveling on the Vision

network, a session may be ended and new session initiated, although no interruption to the actual

data session will occur. Each individual session will be rounded up. The number of data packets

used and charged to you will vary widely, depending upon the speciﬁc PCS Vision wireless

178

Safety & Warranty

application or other service you use and the amount of data used in the speciﬁc application or

service. You will be charged for data exchanges initiated by other Internet users as well as those

you initiate. Estimates of data usage, for example, the size of downloadable ﬁles, will vary from

what you actually use. You will be charged for additional data used in transporting and routing

on the network. If you use a Premium Service (including services provided by third parties but

for which you are billed on your PCS Invoice), you will be charged for data used in transport and

routing in addition to the charge for the Premium Service. You will be charged for partial and

interrupted data downloads or other use, including re-sent data, and for unsuccessful attempts

to reach Web sites and use other applications and services, including those resulting from

dropped network connections. Your invoice will not separately identify the number of kilobytes

attributable to your use of speciﬁc sites, sessions or services used. Speciﬁc additional

information about PCS Vision wireless services, including pricing, included kilobytes and

combining with other PCS Service Plans, is available in our standard sales collateral for PCS

Vision wireless Service Plans or at www.sprintpcs.com.

PCS Voice CommandSM. PCS Voice CommandSM is an optional service that allows you to place

calls by using speech recognition technology. Calls to 911 or similar emergency numbers cannot

be placed through the PCS Voice Command feature. Airtime and applicable long distance

charges for a call completed from your Number using the PCS Voice Command feature begin

when you press or activate the TALK or similar key(s) and end when your call is terminated by

hitting the END key or by returning to the PCS Voice Command platform. If you initiate and

complete another call without leaving the PCS Voice Command platform, a separate charge for

that call will begin from the time the previous call was terminated. Airtime and applicable long

distance charges will be applied to the entire length of a completed call initiated from PCS Voice

Command. Using Directory Assistance to input names into your PCS Voice Command address

book will incur additional charges. Details on charges for the PCS Voice Command feature can

be found in the marketing materials for this feature, by visiting www.sprintpcs.com or by calling

PCS Customer Service Solutions.

Invoicing. Invoicing cycles are approximately 30 days in length. Invoicing cycles and dates may

change from time to time. Except as otherwise provided in your Service Plan, monthly recurring

charges (MRCs) are invoiced one invoicing cycle in advance. Charges for Services are usually

invoiced as soon as possible after the charges accrue. We may, however, invoice you for usage

and charges occurring before the invoicing cycle being invoiced, if they were not previously

invoiced. If you are invoiced for usage incurred during a prior invoicing cycle, those minutes

will be applied to your Service Plan minutes for the current invoicing cycle. However, if you

change your PCS Service Plan between the time the usage was incurred and the beginning of the

current invoicing cycle, those minutes from the prior invoicing cycle will be charged at the rate

per minute for usage over included minutes provided in the Service Plan in effect at the time the

usage was incurred.

Additional Terms for Premium Services. Access to and downloading of premium content is not

included with PCS Vision services. Certain PCS Vision services (e.g., games, ringers and screen

savers) contain mostly premium services content. Your invoice will not separately identify the

number of kilobytes attributable to your use of speciﬁc sites, sessions or services used. You will be

charged for Premium Services at the rates and charges speciﬁed at the time of access or download,

in addition to data usage charges you will incur while connected to the Sprint Nationwide PCS

Network. You will be charged for partial and interrupted data downloads or other use, including

data that is resent, and for unsuccessful attempts to reach Web sites and use other applications and

services, including those resulting from dropped network connections. We provide no warranties

and make no representations or claims with regard to the third party Premium Services. In certain

instances, subject to the terms of the content purchased, we may delete premium and non-

premium items downloaded to available storage areas (e.g., your vault) including any pictures,

games and other content. We may impose a dollar or other limit on use of Premium Services

including a limit the amount of Premium Service charges that you will be allowed to incur in a

speciﬁc timeframe (month, week, day, or other time period). We may suspend your use of Premium

Services without prior consent or notice if we have reason to suspect fraudulent or unauthorized

use of your Premium Services account, but we make no assurances that we will suspend your

account.

Payment. If you have authorized payment for Services or equipment by credit card or by debiting a

bank account, no additional notice or consent is required before we invoice the credit card or debit

the bank account for all amounts due to us or billed by us on behalf of a third party. You must

promptly notify us of any change in your invoicing address or of the credit card or bank account

used for payment. We reserve the right to require payment by money order, cashier's check or

other secured form of payment. If we take action to receive payment beyond invoicing you for

charges for Services or equipment, you must pay our costs and expenses of collection, including

attorneys' fees and expenses, the fees of any collection agency and court costs. If we act as an

invoicing agent for a third-party service provider, payments received are ﬁrst applied to amounts

due and owing to us and any remaining amounts are applied to sums due and owing to the third-

party service provider. We may charge an additional fee for any check or other negotiable

instrument endorsed by you and returned unpaid by a ﬁnancial institution for any reason. You may

be charged fees for certain methods of payment.

Late Payment Charges. Payment is past due if we do not receive it by the due date shown on your

invoice. Any payment for Services and equipment not made when due accrues late charges until

paid at the rate of 5% per month or at the highest rate allowed by law. Acceptance of late or partial

payments (even if marked “paid in full”) does not waive our right to collect all amounts that you

owe us. If your Service has been suspended due to non-payment, you may be charged a reactivation

fee.

Safety & Warranty

Disputed Charges. You must raise any dispute that you have about any charges invoiced to you

within 15 days of the date of the invoice or you have accepted the invoice. You may notify us of

any dispute by notifying PCS Customer Service Solutions. Calls to our sales or general business

ofﬁces are not notice of a dispute. If disputed invoice procedures are described on the invoice,

you must follow them.

Termination. Non-Term Service Plan. If you are on a Non-Term Service Plan you may terminate

Services at any time by giving us notice. Subject to the terms of this Agreement, we may

terminate Services at any time, with or without notice. If your Service has been suspended due

you receive notice of termination without liability to you. Termination by either of us may be

with or without cause.

Termination. Term Service Plan. If you are on a Term Service Plan (1) your ability to terminate

Services before the end of the term is limited, (2) your ability to change to another Service Plan

before the end of the term may be limited, and may result in a termination or activation fee, (3)

you may be required to pay a termination fee, (4) we may not terminate Services without cause

before the end of the term and (5) if we terminate Services for cause before the end of the term,

you may be required to pay a termination fee. No termination fee is charged if you terminate a

each other notice to terminate Services. At and after the expiration of the term, you may

terminate Services at any time by giving us notice and we may subject, to this Agreement,

terminate Services at any time, with or without notice.

Termination. General. Regardless of whether you have a Non-Term or a Term Service Plan, we

may terminate or suspend Services to you without liability (1) if you breach any provision of this

Agreement (including if you fail to pay any charges for Services), or (2) if you fail to pay any

charges due us for equipment or otherwise. If you promptly cure the breach, we may, but are

not obligated to, reactivate Services to you. You must pay all charges for (a) Services provided

before termination of a Number, (b) equipment, regardless of who terminates Services and (c) a

reactivation fee, if we agree to reactivate Services to you. If Services are terminated before the

end of your current invoicing cycle (i) the monthly recurring charge is not prorated to the date

of termination, and (ii) you will not receive a credit or refund for any unused minutes in your

Service Plan.

Account Spending Limit. If we agree to provide Services to you on an Account Spending Limit

basis, we will tell you your Account Spending Limit before we start Services to your Number, or

as reasonably practicable after the limit is imposed. If we require a deposit for you to establish or

keep Services on an Account Spending Limit basis, we will hold the deposit as partial guarantee

of payment for Services (see Deposits). Charges for Services accrue against your Account

Spending Limit as they are incurred. We may charge an initial ASL start up fee. We may charge a

monthly ASL service fee, in addition to your recurring monthly service charge. We may suspend

Services to your Number without prior notice to you when your account balance reaches your

Account Spending Limit. Services are restored when you have paid any past due balance and pay a

speciﬁed minimum amount to reduce your account balance below your Account Spending Limit.

We may change this minimum amount at any time upon notice to you. You may pay any past due

balance and the minimum amount by any method authorized by Sprint. Contact PCS Customer

Service Solutions for information about authorized methods of making these payments. We may

charge you a fee for calls that involve our live customer care services. If we provide Services to you

on an Account Spending Limit basis, Services and coverage may be limited in certain ways. You

must pay all charges for Services even if they exceed the amount of your Account Spending Limit.

PCS Clear Pay Program. If we agree to provide Services to you as a PCS Clear Pay Program

customer, we may suspend Services to your Number without prior notice to you immediately when

your bill becomes past due. Even if your bill is not past due, we may suspend services if your

unpaid usage exceeds $125 or another amount to be determined by your past credit or usage

history. If we require a deposit for you to establish or keep Services as a PCS Clear Pay Program

customer, we will hold the deposit as partial guarantee of payment for Services (see Deposits,

below). Contact PCS Customer Service Solutions for information about authorized methods of

making these payments. We may charge you a fee for calls that involve our live customer care

services. If we provide Services to you on as a PCS Clear Pay Program basis, Services and coverage

may be limited in certain ways. You must pay all charges for Services whether or not your Services

are suspended or terminated.

Deposits. If we require a deposit for you to establish or keep Services, we will hold the deposit as

partial guarantee of payment for Services. We may change the deposit amount at any time to reﬂect

revised estimated monthly charges based upon your usage. A deposit may not be used to pay any

invoice (unless it is used to pay a ﬁnal invoice) or delay payment. The deposit amount, the length of

time we hold the deposit and changes to the deposit amount are determined based on your credit

and payment history. The rate of interest, if any, on the deposit is subject to change. We may mix

deposits with our other funds. If Services are terminated for any reason, we may, without notice to

you, apply your deposit toward payment of outstanding charges and return any excess to you at

your last known address within 75 days after termination of Services. If the U.S. Postal Service

cannot deliver the money to you and returns it to us, we will hold it for you for one year from the

date of return and, during that period, we may charge a servicing fee against the deposit balance.

Any money held during this one-year period will not accrue interest for your beneﬁt. You forfeit

any portion of the money left after the one-year period.

You consent to receiving advertising, warnings, alerts and other messages, including broadcast

messages.

Your access to PCS Vision Services is controlled by a password.

Taxes and Other Regulatory-Related Charges. We invoice you for taxes, fees and other charges

levied by federal, state or local authorities, or foreign government on Services. We also assess

charges associated with regulatory mandates and obligations, such as Universal Service and

Enhanced 911 service. If you claim any tax exemption, you must provide us with a valid tax-

exempt document. Any tax exemption applies only from the date we receive a valid tax-exempt

document.

Roaming. Calls made outside of your Home Service Area and off of the Sprint Nationwide PCS

Network are “roaming” calls. Your PCS Phone is speciﬁcally designed and engineered to work only

on the Sprint Nationwide PCS Network. It works on another CDMA PCS provider's system only

when a roaming agreement is in place between Sprint and the other providers. If your PCS Phone is

a dual-mode phone, it works on both a CDMA PCS provider's system (in addition to the Sprint

Nationwide PCS Network) and a wireless analog telecommunications provider's system only when

roaming agreements are in place between Sprint and the other providers. If we do not have a

roaming agreement in place, you may be able to place roaming calls “manually” by using a valid

credit card. If there is a gap or other interruption of coverage within a PCS coverage area that

prevents connection with the Sprint Nationwide PCS Network and your dual-band phone is set to

roam automatically when outside PCS coverage, you may incur roaming fees within a PCS coverage

area. Certain features are not available when roaming. Roaming rates may be different from and

higher than the rates you pay for calls within your Sprint PCS Local Service Area and on the Sprint

Nationwide PCS Network. When roaming, you are subject to the limitation of liability provisions

and other applicable rules imposed by the roaming service provider.

Interruption of Service. We may give credit for a continuous interruption of Services for more than

24 hours on a case-by-case basis. Interruptions caused by your negligent or willful actions, or by

failure of equipment or service not provided by us, or by causes beyond our reasonable control, do

not qualify for credit. We may provide you with an airtime credit of one minute for a call that is

disconnected because of transmission limitations caused by atmospheric, geographic or

topographic conditions and that you redial within one minute of disconnection. You must notify us

within 24 hours of the disconnection to request credit.

Phones and Other Equipment. Phones and other equipment may be purchased and returned as

provided in the purchase documents. We are not the manufacturer of the phones or other

equipment. The only warranties on the phones or other equipment are any limited warranties

extended by the manufacturers. We have no liability in connection with the phones and other

equipment or for the manufacturers' acts or omissions.

provided to the Number for the lost or stolen equipment before you notify us of the loss or theft.

We will deactivate Services to the Number upon notiﬁcation to us of any loss or theft. You may

be required to provide evidence of the loss or theft (for example, a police report or sworn

statement). If the equipment is later found, we may require that you exchange it for another

phone or other equipment before we reactivate Services (if we do reactivate Services), as well as

require you to pay a reactivation fee. We will deactivate Services to any Number without prior

notice to you if we suspect any unlawful or fraudulent use of the Number. You agree to

cooperate reasonably with us in investigating suspected unlawful or fraudulent use.

Caller ID. If you do not want people you call to receive the Number assigned to your phone, you

must call PCS Customer Service Solutions for information about automatic Caller ID blocking.

The Number assigned to your phone can be blocked on a per-call basis by dialing *67 +

Destination Number + TALK (or similar key), but Caller ID delivery resumes on the next call you

make. Caller ID display on incoming calls to your Number depends on receiving the information

from the calling party.

TTY Access. A TTY (also known as TDD or Text Telephone) is a telecommunications device

that allows people who are deaf or hard of hearing, or who have speech or language disabilities,

to communicate by telephone. TTY doesn’t work with all PCS Phones. If you have a PCS TTY-

capable phone, it may not function effectively, or at all, when attempting 911 calls due to the

equipment or software of the answering agency. Therefore, a TTY device should not be relied

on for 911 calls.

Pay-Per-Call Service. We will not complete calls from your Number to 900, 976 and similar

numbers for pay-per-call services.

International Calling. You may be limited in the international destinations that you can call with

Services. You should contact PCS Customer Service Solutions for information about

international destinations that you cannot call.

Limitation of Liability. Except as otherwise provided in this section, our sole liability to you for

any loss or damage arising out of providing or failing to provide Services (including mistakes,

omissions, interruptions, delays, errors, or defects) does not exceed (1) in cases related to a

speciﬁc piece of equipment, the prorated MRC for Services to the piece of equipment during

the affected period, or (2) in cases not related to a speciﬁc piece of equipment, the prorated

MRCs for Services to you during the affected period. Neither we nor our vendors, suppliers or

licensors are liable for any damage arising out of or in connection with:

a) any act or omission of any telecommunications service or other service provider other than

us;

b) any directory listing;

c) any dropped calls or inability to place or receive calls;

ANY INCIDENTAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, PUNITIVE OR SPECIAL DAMAGES OF ANY NATURE

WHATSOEVER ARISING OUT OF OR IN CONNECTION WITH PROVIDING OR FAILING TO

PROVIDE SERVICES, PHONES OR OTHER EQUIPMENT USED IN CONNECTION WITH THE

SERVICES, INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, LOST PROFITS, LOSS OF BUSINESS, OR COST OF

REPLACEMENT PRODUCTS AND SERVICES. THIS SECTION SURVIVES TERMINATION OF THIS

AGREEMENT.

Indemniﬁcation. You indemnify and defend us, our partners, directors, ofﬁcers, employees and

agents from and against any claim, action, damage, liability and expense arising out of or in

connection with: (1) your acts or omissions that occur in connection with your use of the Services

or equipment used in connection with the Services, and (2) any communications you make or

receive using the Services. This indemniﬁcation extends to and includes any attorney's fees and

MANDATORY ARBITRATION OF DISPUTES. ANY CLAIM, CONTROVERSY OR DISPUTE OF

ANY KIND BETWEEN THE CUSTOMER AND THE COMPANY AND/OR ANY OF ITS'

EMPLOYEES, AGENTS, AFFILIATES OR OTHER REPRESENTATIVES, WHETHER SOUNDING IN

CONTRACT, STATUTE, OR TORT, INCLUDING FRAUD, MISREPRESENTATION, FRAUDULENT

INDUCEMENT, OR ANY OTHER LEGAL OR EQUITABLE THEORY AND REGARDLESS OF THE

DATE OF ACCRUAL OF SUCH CLAIM, CONTROVERSY OR DISPUTE SHALL BE RESOLVED BY

FINAL AND BINDING ARBITRATION AS PRESCRIBED IN THIS SECTION. THE FEDERAL

ARBITRATION ACT, NOT STATE LAW, GOVERNS THE QUESTION OF WHETHER A CLAIM IS

SUBJECT TO ARBITRATION. HOWEVER, NOTHING CONTAINED IN THIS ARBITRATION

PROVISION SHALL PRECLUDE THE CUSTOMER FROM RESOLVING ANY CLAIM,

CONTROVERSY OR DISPUTE IN SMALL CLAIMS COURT HE OR SHE OTHERWISE WOULD

HAVE THE RIGHT TO PURSUE.

A single arbitrator engaged in the practice of law will conduct the arbitration. The arbitrator will

be selected according to the rules of the American Arbitration Association or JAMS or,

alternatively, may be selected by agreement of the parties, who shall cooperate in good faith to

select the arbitrator. The arbitration will be conducted by, and under the then-applicable rules of

American Arbitration Association or JAMS, as applicable. All expedited procedures prescribed by

the applicable rules will apply. Any required hearing fees and costs shall be paid by the parties as

required by the applicable rules or as required by applicable law, but the arbitrator shall have the

power to apportion such costs as the arbitrator deems appropriate.

The arbitrator's decision and award will be ﬁnal and binding, and judgment on the award

rendered by the arbitrator may be entered in any court with jurisdiction.

If any party ﬁles a judicial or administrative action asserting a claim that is subject to arbitration

and another party successfully stays such action or compels arbitration, the party ﬁling that

action must pay the other party's costs and expenses incurred in seeking such stay or

compelling arbitration, including attorney's fees.

Notices. You may get our current address for written notice by calling PCS Customer Service

Solutions. Written notice to you is sent to your last known address in our invoicing records.

Written notice is deemed delivered 3 days after deposit in the U.S. mail, postage prepaid, and

properly addressed. Unless required by this Agreement or Applicable Laws, (1) you may notify

us by calling PCS Customer Service Solutions, and (2) we may notify you by leaving a message

for you on your PCS Phone, answering machine or with your answering service. Notice

addresses may be changed by giving notice as provided in this section.

Choice of Law; Jurisdiction. This Agreement is governed by and must be construed under

federal law and the laws of the State of Kansas, without regard to choice of law principles. You

agree to submit yourself to the personal jurisdiction of the courts in the State of Kansas.

General. If either of us does not enforce any right or remedy available under this Agreement, that

failure is not a waiver of the right or remedy for any other breach or failure by the other party. Our

waiver of any requirement in any one instance is not a general waiver of that requirement and does

not amend this Agreement. If any part of this Agreement is held invalid or unenforceable, that part

is interpreted consistent with Applicable Laws as nearly as possible to reﬂect the original intentions

of the parties and the rest of this Agreement remains in full force and effect. Section headings are

for descriptive purposes only and are not used to interpret this Agreement. You may not assign this

Agreement to any other person or entity without our prior written approval. This Agreement

(including any referenced documents and attachments) makes up the entire agreement between

you and us and replaces all prior written or spoken agreements, representations, promises or

understandings between you and us. The provisions of this Agreement that are contemplated to be

enforceable after the termination of this Agreement survive termination of this Agreement. This

Agreement is subject to any applicable federal and state law (collectively, “Applicable Laws”). If

there is a conﬂict, the Service Plan (including any Term Service Plan) controls over the Terms.

The following provisions are not generally applicable and apply only to customers whose

Service Plans include these terms:

Traveling. If you are making or receiving calls outside your Home Service Area but on the Sprint

Nationwide PCS Network, you may be charged for Services at a “travel” rate for both outgoing and

incoming traveling calls. Long distance charges may not be included in the travel rate. Traveling

in accordance with our privacy policy, as set forth in the following Privacy Policy. As this policy

may be updated from time to time, a current version can be found at www.sprintpcs.com.

(a) Sprint respects the privacy of its customers, and other individuals and businesses using the

Web sites owned and operated by Sprint and its Afﬁliates (“Sprint Web sites”). This updated

information collected on Sprint Web sites and how the information is used and protected. The

revised Privacy Policy includes information about advertisements on Sprint Web sites and access

to your account information.

Sprint protects the privacy of its local, long distance and wireless customers consistent with the

Federal Telecommunications Act

and rules and regulations issued by the Federal Communications Commission.

Sprint's Privacy Policy for its high speed Internet services can be accessed at: www.sprint.com/

privacypolicy/broadbandservices.

There are two types of information that may be exchanged between the Sprint site and the user

during each visit to a Sprint site. They are:

1. General technical data transmitted between your computer and the Sprint site that does not

identify you personally.

2. Personally identiﬁable information that you voluntarily share. The types of personally

identiﬁable information that you might share include your name, address, phone number, email

address and credit card number.

(b) Anonymous Information

In order to provide you with the information and services that you look for from the Sprint Web

sites, Sprint gathers certain types of information from you that are not personally identiﬁable.

This is called anonymous information and includes:

1. The type of Internet browser you use when you visit

2. The types of computer operating system you use

3. The search engine you use to access the Sprint Web sites (such as “AOL.com,” “Yahoo.com”

or “Go.com”)

4. The speciﬁc Sprint Web site that you visit (sprint.com, sprintpcs.com, etc.).

The anonymous information collected is not associated with you personally or your business.

Sprint uses this anonymous information in the aggregate to improve Sprint Web sites and the

services we provide through those sites.

Sprint Web sites may use “cookies” to collect the anonymous information described in this Privacy

Policy. Cookies are bits of encrypted data that are loaded by a Sprint server onto your computer or

Start Here.book Page 190 Thursday, July 17, 2003 4:43 PM

191

Safety & Warranty

other device when you visit a Sprint Web site. The server can retrieve the cookies the next time you

visit a site and use them to identify the computer as a return visitor. Sprint uses cookies to collect non-

personally identiﬁable information and generically track usage patterns on the Sprint Web sites in order

to monitor activity and administer the sites. Sprint also uses information obtained from cookies to

improve Sprint Web sites, and make decisions concerning advertising, product offerings and services.

Most users can disable cookies from their Internet browsers, receive a warning before a cookie is

placed on their computer, and erase all cookies from their computer hard drives by following the

instructions provided by the browser.

(d) Advertisements On Sprint Web Sites

Advertising companies deliver ads on some Sprint Web sites. You should be aware that when you

click on these ads, the advertising companies may also deploy cookies to receive anonymous

information about ad viewing by Internet users on Sprint Web sites and other Web sites. This

information is associated with your Web browser, but cannot be associated with your name or

email address without your permission. Therefore, advertising companies may know where your

computer goes on the Web, but they do not know who you are unless you tell them. Sprint does

not provide personally identiﬁable information about its customers or Sprint Web site visitors to

these advertising companies.

(e) Personally Identiﬁable Information

Sprint may ask you to provide what is often referred to as “personally identiﬁable information” such

as your name, address, telephone number and email address when you use Sprint Web sites to:

purchase a service or product online, enter a contest or sweepstakes, ask to receive information,

respond to a survey, register with a Sprint Web site, access your account, ask for a personalized

service, request customer service online, or apply for a job. You always have the alternative of

mailing or calling Sprint with the information requested if you do not wish to provide it online.

Personally identiﬁable information provided at a Sprint Web site to order Sprint services other than

Internet services will be protected in the same manner as when the information is provided by

other means such as over the telephone or by mail. We protect customer information obtained

from the local, long distance and wireless service customers of Sprint consistent with federal laws

governing telecommunications services and with regulations issued by the Federal

Communications Commission. Sprint's Privacy Policy for its Internet services can be accessed at:

www.sprint.com/privacypolicy/broadbandservices.

Safety & Warranty

We use personally identiﬁable information provided at a Sprint web site in the following ways

unless otherwise speciﬁed:

1. For its intended purpose (such as to complete an online order for service).

2. To provide you with information about new PCS Products and Services or products and

services offered in conjunction with Sprint business partners.

(f) Disclosure To Third Parties

Sprint will not sell or disclose to outside parties any personally identiﬁable information obtained

from a Sprint online service or the registration at a Sprint Web site without your consent except

under the following circumstances:

1. When required by law,

2. When disclosure is necessary to protect the safety of a customer, third party or Sprint's

property,

3. If it is required in connection with any sale or transfer of all or a portion of Sprint's assets.

When Sprint uses agents, contractors or other companies to perform services on its behalf,

Sprint will require that they protect your personally identiﬁable information consistent with this

with third parties from time-to-time.

(g) Email Communications

Email is an increasingly popular communication tool through which you and your business may

communicate with Sprint. Likewise, Sprint may use email to communicate with you, respond to

your email, and to tell you about new products and services. If you do not wish to receive email

promotions and new products and service announcements from Sprint, please follow the

instructions that appear at the end of the email communication that you receive from Sprint to

have your name removed from the list.

(h) Security

Sprint utilizes several encryption methods to ensure that the data you submit on any of the

Sprint Web sites is secure. Through this “secure session,” information that you input into a Sprint

online order form will be sent and will arrive privately and unaltered at a Sprint server. This

security prohibits access to your information by other companies and Web users.

(i) Children

Sprint does not intend to collect personally identiﬁable information from individuals under 18

years of age. If Sprint becomes aware that a user who is under 18 is using a Sprint Web site,

Sprint will speciﬁcally instruct that individual that they are not to submit information on Sprint

Web sites without a parent or guardian's consent. If a child has provided Sprint with personally

identiﬁable information without the knowledge of Sprint, a parent or guardian of the child may

contact Sprint at privacy@mail.sprint.com and Sprint will delete the child's information from our

existing ﬁles.

(j) Links

Some Sprint Web sites contain links to other Web sites that are owned and operated by parties

other than Sprint. Please be aware that this Privacy Policy does not extend to any Web sites other

than those owned and controlled by Sprint.

(k) Account Information

You may always contact us at privacy@mail.sprint.com or by telephone or mail to verify your name,

address, email address, telephone number and/or billing information. Sprint will correct any

information that is inaccurate.

(l) Questions

If you have questions or comments regarding this Privacy Policy, you may contact us at

privacy@mail.sprint.com. If you have submitted personally identiﬁable information, and would like

that information deleted from our records, please contact us at our email address,

privacy@mail.sprint.com. We will use reasonable efforts to delete that information from our ﬁles.

(m) Updates

Sprint may amend this Privacy Policy from time-to- time. These changes will be posted online.

9. Usage and Storage

We and our suppliers assume no responsibility for: (1) any full or partial loss, deletion or failure to

store your pictures or any other data; (2) any notice or lack of notice of such loss, deletion or failure

to store your data; or (3) any correct or erroneous informing of or failure to inform user of such

loss, deletion or failure to store your data. From time to time we may establish an upper limit on the

size of data storage that you are permitted to use on the Service and/or an upper limit on the

frequency or amount of usage that you are permitted on the Service or related software. We may

establish a reasonable period of time (for example, three months) such that if you do not use the

Service at least once during such period, we may terminate the Service to you for non-use, and

delete pictures and other data that you may have stored through the Service.

10. No Resale of Service or Software

reproduce, duplicate, copy, sell, resell or exploit for any commercial purposes, any portion of the
