Section 3: Entering Text
This section describes how to enter words, letters, punctuation
and numbers when you need to enter text.

Virtual QWERTY Keyboard
Your device uses a virtual QWERTY keyboard for text entry. Use
the keyboard to enter letters, punctuation, numbers, and other
characters into text entry fields or applications. Access the
keyboard by touching any text entry field.
The virtual QWERTY keyboard displays at the bottom of the
screen. By default, when you rotate the device, the screen
orientation updates to display the keyboard at the bottom of the
screen.

Text Input Methods
Your device offers several text input methods. This section
explains two of them.
• Swype: Swype™ is a new text input method that allows you to enter
words by gliding your finger over the virtual QWERTY keyboard, lifting
your finger between words. You can also enable Word prediction,
which matches your key touches to common words.
• Samsung Keypad: The Samsung Keyboard is a virtual QWERTY
keyboard that allows you to enter text by touching keys on the screen.
The Samsung Keypad includes predictive text, which matches your
key touches to common words so that you can select the word to enter
it into your text.

Changing the Input Method

Entering Text Using Swype
Swype™ is a new way to enter text on touch screens. Instead of
touching each key, use your finger to trace over each letter of a
word. For each word, place your finger on the first letter and glide
to the subsequent letters, lifting on the last letter.

The following example shows how to enter the word “this”. Put
your finger down on the “t” and, without lifting, glide it to the “h”,
then to the “i”, then over to the “s”.

30

Here are a few tips to get you started:
• Auto-spacing: When you finish a word, just lift your finger and start
the next word.
• Double letters: Just “scribble” on the key.
• Auto-capitalization: Swype recognizes and capitalizes the first word
of sentences. If you want to capitalize a word that is not at the
beginning of a sentence, just glide above the keyboard before gliding
over the next letter.
• Contractions: Swype recognizes most words that include an
apostrophe, just swype the letters of the word, including the
apostrophe.
• Punctuation: Touch and hold a key to view a punctuation menu and
make a selection.

Entering Symbols and Numbers

• Accented characters: Just glide through the letters of the word.

Swype usually recognizes the word and correctly accents the letters.
• Error correction: If you make a mistake, double-tap on the word you
want to change.

Section 12: Health and Safety Information
This section outlines the safety precautions associated with using
your Galaxy Player. The terms “GALAXY” or “mobile device” are
used in this section to refer to your Galaxy Player. Read this
information before using your mobile device.

Exposure to Radio Frequency (RF) Signals
Although GALAXY is not a cell phone, it can operate on the same
network as cell phones and can use the same Radio Frequency
(RF) signals to communicate with the network as a cell phone.
Therefore, although the following information refers specifically
to RF exposure from wireless phones, it may apply similarly to
GALAXY when it is being used on a cell phone network.
The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has published
information for consumers relating to Radio Frequency (RF)
exposure from wireless phones. The FDA publication includes the
following information:

looking at the biological effects of the radio frequency energy
emitted by cell phones. While some researchers have reported
biological changes associated with RF energy, these studies have
failed to be replicated. The majority of studies published have
failed to show an association between exposure to radio
frequency from a cell phone and health problems.
The low levels of RF cell phones emit while in use are in the
microwave frequency range. They also emit RF at substantially
reduced time intervals when in the stand-by mode. Whereas high
levels of RF can produce health effects (by heating tissue),
exposure to low level RF that does not produce heating effects
causes no known adverse health effects.
The biological effects of radio frequency energy should not be
confused with the effects from other types of electromagnetic
energy.

Many people are concerned that cell phone radiation will cause
cancer or other serious health hazards. The weight of scientific
evidence has not linked cell phones with any health problems.

Very high levels of electromagnetic energy, such as is found in
X-rays and gamma rays, can ionize biological tissues. Ionization
is a process where electrons are stripped away from their normal
locations in atoms and molecules. It can permanently damage
biological tissues including DNA, the genetic material.

Cell phones emit low levels of Radio Frequency (RF) energy. Over
the past 15 years, scientists have conducted hundreds of studies

The energy levels associated with radio frequency energy,
including both radio waves and microwaves, are not great

Do cell phones pose a health hazard?

Health and Safety Information

123

enough to cause ionization of atoms and molecules. Therefore,
RF energy is a type of non-ionizing radiation. Other types of
non-ionizing radiation include visible light, infrared radiation
(heat), and other forms of electromagnetic radiation with
relatively low frequencies.
While RF energy does not ionize particles, large amounts can
increase body temperatures and cause tissue damage. Two
areas of the body, the eyes and the testes, are particularly
vulnerable to RF heating because there is relatively little blood
flow in them to carry away excess heat.
Research Results to Date: Is there a connection between RF
and certain health problems?

The results of most studies conducted to date say no. In addition,
attempts to replicate and confirm the few studies that have
shown a connection have failed.
The scientific community at large therefore believes that the
weight of scientific evidence does not show an association
between exposure to Radio Frequency (RF) from cell phones and
adverse health outcomes. Still the scientific community has
supported additional research to address gaps in knowledge.
Some of these studies are described below.

Interphone Study

Interphone is a large international study designed to determine
whether cell phones increase the risk of head and neck cancer. A
report published in the International Journal of Epidemiology
(June, 2010) compared cell phone usage for more than 5,000
people with brain tumors (glioma and meningioma) and a similar
number of healthy controls.
Results of this study did NOT show that cell phones caused brain
cancer. In this study, most people had no increased risk of brain
cancer from using cell phones. For people with the heaviest use
of cell phones (an average of more than ½ hour per day, every
day, for over 10 years) the study suggested a slight increase in
brain cancer. However, the authors determined that biases and
errors prevented any conclusions being drawn from this data.
Additional information about Interphone can be found at
http://www.iarc.fr/en/media-centre/pr/2010/pdfs/pr200_E.pdf.
Interphone is the largest cell phone study to date, but it did not
answer all questions about cell phone safety. Additional research
is being conducted around the world, and the FDA continues to
monitor developments in this field.
International Cohort Study on Mobile Phone Users (COSMOS)

The COSMOS study aims to conduct long-term health monitoring
of a large group of people to determine if there are any health
issues linked to long-term exposure to radio frequency energy
124

from cell phone use. The COSMOS study will follow
approximately 300,000 adult cell phone users in Europe for 20 to
30 years. Additional information about the COSMOS study can be
found at
http://www.ukcosmos.org/index.html.
Risk of Brain Cancer from Exposure to Radio Frequency Fields
in Childhood and Adolescence (MOBI-KIDS)

MOBI-KIDS is an international study investigating the relationship
between exposure to radio frequency energy from
communication technologies including cell phones and brain
cancer in young people. This is an international multi-center
study involving 14 European and non-European countries.
Additional information about MOBI-KIDS can be found at
http://www.creal.cat/programes-recerca/en_projectes-creal/
view.php?ID=39.
Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results (SEER) Program
of the National Cancer Institute

The National Cancer Institute (NCI) actively follows cancer
statistics in the United States to detect any change in rates of
new cases for brain cancer. If cell phones play a role in risk for
brain cancer, rates should go up, because heavy cell phone use
has been common for quite some time in the U.S. Between 1987
and 2005, the overall age-adjusted incidence of brain cancer did

not increase. Additional information about SEER can be found at
http://seer.cancer.gov/.
Cell Phone Industry Actions

Although the existing scientific data do not justify FDA regulatory
actions, the FDA has urged the cell phone industry to take a
number of steps, including the following:
• Support-needed research on possible biological effects of RF for
the type of signal emitted by cell phones;
• Design cell phones in a way that minimizes any RF exposure to the
user; and
• Cooperate in providing users of cell phones with the current
information on cell phone use and human health concerns.
The FDA also is working with voluntary standard-setting bodies
such as the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers
(IEEE), the International Commission on Non-Ionizing Radiation
Protection (ICNIRP), and others to assure that safety standards
continue to adequately protect the public.
Reducing Exposure: Hands-Free Kits and Other
Accessories
Steps to Reduce Exposure to Radio Frequency Energy

If there is a risk from being exposed to radio frequency energy
(RF) from cell phones - and at this point we do not know that
there is - it is probably very small. But, if you are concerned
Health and Safety Information

125

about avoiding even potential risks, you can take a few simple
steps to minimize your RF exposure.
• Reduce the amount of time spent using your cell phone;
• Use speaker mode or a headset to place more distance between your
head and the cell phone.
Hands-Free Kits

Hands-free kits may include audio or Bluetooth® headsets and
various types of body-worn accessories such as belt-clips and
holsters. Combinations of these can be used to reduce RF energy
absorption from cell phones.
Headsets can substantially reduce exposure because the phone
is held away from the head in the user's hand or in approved
body-worn accessories. Cell phones marketed in the U.S. are
required to meet RF exposure compliance requirements when
used against the head and against the body.
Because there are no known risks from exposure to RF emissions
from cell phones, there is no reason to believe that hands-free
kits reduce risks. Hands-free kits can be used for convenience
and comfort. They are also required by law in many states if you
want to use your phone while driving.

Cell Phone Accessories that Claim to Shield the Head from RF
Radiation

Because there are no known risks from exposure to RF emissions
from cell phones, there is no reason to believe that accessories
which claim to shield the head from those emissions reduce
risks. Some products that claim to shield the user from RF
absorption use special phone cases, while others involve nothing
more than a metallic accessory attached to the phone. Studies
have shown that these products generally do not work as
advertised. Unlike “hands-free” kits, these so-called “shields”
may interfere with proper operation of the phone. The phone may
be forced to boost its power to compensate, leading to an
increase in RF absorption.
Children and Cell Phones
The scientific evidence does not show a danger to any users of
cell phones from RF exposure, including children and teenagers.
The steps adults can take to reduce RF exposure apply to
children and teenagers as well.
• Reduce the amount of time spent on the cell phone;
• Use speaker mode or a headset to place more distance between the
head and the cell phone.
Some groups sponsored by other national governments have
advised that children be discouraged from using cell phones at
all. For example, The Stewart Report from the United Kingdom

126

made such a recommendation in December 2000. In this report,
a group of independent experts noted that no evidence exists that
using a cell phone causes brain tumors or other ill effects. Their
recommendation to limit cell phone use by children was strictly
precautionary; it was not based on scientific evidence that any
health hazard exists.

Specific Absorption Rate (SAR) Certification
Information
Your wireless mobile device is a radio transmitter and receiver. It
is designed and manufactured not to exceed the exposure limits
for Radio Frequency (RF) energy set by the Federal
Communications Commission (FCC) of the U.S. Government.
These FCC RF exposure limits are derived from the
recommendations of two expert organizations: the National
Council on Radiation Protection and Measurement (NCRP) and
the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE). In both
cases, the recommendations were developed by scientific and
engineering experts drawn from industry, government, and
academia after extensive reviews of the scientific literature
related to the biological effects of RF energy.
The RF exposure limit set by the FCC for wireless mobile devices
employs a unit of measurement known as the Specific
Absorption Rate (SAR). The SAR is a measure of the rate of
absorption of RF energy by the human body expressed in units of
watts per kilogram (W/kg). The FCC requires wireless devices to
comply with a safety limit of 1.6 watts per kilogram (1.6 W/kg).
Health and Safety Information

127

The FCC SAR limit incorporates a substantial margin of safety to
give additional protection to the public and to account for any
variations in measurements.

The maximum SAR values for this model device as reported to
the FCC are:

SAR tests are conducted using standard operating positions
accepted by the FCC with the mobile device transmitting at its
highest certified power level in all tested frequency bands.
Although the SAR is determined at the highest certified power
level, the actual SAR level of the mobile device while operating
can be well below the maximum reported value. This is because
the mobile device is designed to operate at multiple power levels
so as to use only the power required to reach the network. In
general, the closer you are to a wireless base station antenna,
the lower the power output of the mobile device.

Body-worn: 0.07 W/kg.

Before a new model mobile device is available for sale to the
public, it must be tested and certified to the FCC that it does not
exceed the SAR limit established by the FCC. Tests for each
model mobile device are performed in positions and locations
(e.g. near the body) as required by the FCC.
For typical operations, this mobile device has been tested and
meets FCC SAR guidelines.
Use of other accessories may not ensure compliance with FCC RF
exposure guidelines. The FCC has granted an Equipment
Authorization for this mobile device with all reported SAR levels
evaluated as in compliance with the FCC RF exposure guidelines.
128

Head: 0.057 W/kg.
SAR information on this and other model mobile devices can be
accessed online on the FCC's website through http://
transition.fcc.gov/oet/rfsafety/sar.html. To find information that
pertains to a particular model mobile device, this site uses the
mobile device FCC ID number, which is usually printed
somewhere on the case of the mobile device.
Once you have the FCC ID number for a particular mobile device,
follow the instructions on the website and it should provide
values for typical or maximum SAR for a particular mobile device.
Additional SAR information can also be obtained at
http://www.fcc.gov/encyclopedia/specific-absorption-rate-sar-cellulartelephones.

Smart Practices While Driving
On the Road - Off the Player

The primary responsibility of every driver is the safe operation of
his or her vehicle.

Responsible drivers understand that no secondary task should be
performed while driving whether it be eating, drinking, talking to
passengers, or using a mobile device - unless the driver has
assessed the driving conditions and is confident that the
secondary task will not interfere with their primary responsibility.
Do not engage in any activity while driving a moving vehicle which
may cause you to take your eyes off the road or become so
absorbed in the activity that your ability to concentrate on the act
of driving becomes impaired. Samsung is committed to promoting
responsible driving and giving drivers the tools they need to
understand and address distractions.
Check the laws and regulations on the use of mobile devices and
their accessories in the areas where you drive. Always obey them.
The use of these devices may be prohibited or restricted in certain
areas. For example, only hands-free use may be permitted in
certain areas.
Before using your device to chat with friends, consider your
circumstances. Let the chat wait when driving conditions require.
Remember, driving comes first, nothing else!
If you consider a chat necessary and appropriate, follow these
tips:
• Use a hands-free device;
• Secure your mobile device within easy reach;
• Chat when you are not moving;
Health and Safety Information

129

• Plan chats when your car will be stationary;
• Do not engage in stressful or emotional conversations;
• Let the person with whom you are speaking know that you are driving

and will suspend the chat if necessary;
• Do not take notes or look up information while driving;

Battery Use and Safety
The battery in GALAXY is not intended to be replaced by the
consumer. If you believe the battery is damaged or needs to be
replaced, take the GALAXY to a service center for inspection and
replacement.
• Do not let the GALAXY or battery come in contact with liquids.
Liquids can get into the GALAXY’s circuits, leading to corrosion. Even
when the GALAXY appears to be dry and appears to operate normally,
the circuitry could slowly corrode and pose a safety hazard. If the
GALAXY and/or battery get wet, have them checked by your service
provider or contact Samsung, even if they appear to be working
properly.
• Do not place your battery in or near a heat source. Excessive
heating can damage the GALAXY or the battery and could cause the
GALAXY or the battery to explode. Do not dry a wet or damp battery
with an appliance or heat source such as a microwave oven, hair
dryer, iron, or radiator. Avoid leaving your GALAXY in your car in high
temperatures.
• Do not dispose of the GALAXY or the battery in a fire. The GALAXY
or the battery may explode when overheated.
• Avoid dropping the GALAXY. Dropping the GALAXY, especially on a
hard surface, can potentially cause damage to the GALAXY. If you
suspect damage to the GALAXY or battery, take it to a service center
for inspection.

• Never use any charger or battery that is damaged in any way.
Important!: Use only Samsung-approved batteries, and recharge your battery
only with Samsung-approved chargers which are specifically
designed for your GALAXY.

WARNING!
Use of a non-Samsung-approved battery or charger may present a
risk of fire, explosion, leakage, or other hazard. Samsung's
warranty does not cover damage to the GALAXY caused by
non-Samsung-approved batteries and/or chargers.
• Do not use incompatible batteries and chargers. Some websites
and second-hand dealers not associated with reputable manufacturers
and carriers, might be selling incompatible or even counterfeit
batteries and chargers. Consumers should purchase manufacturer or
carrier-recommended products and accessories. If unsure about
whether a replacement battery or charger is compatible, contact the
manufacturer of the battery or charger.
• Misuse or use of incompatible batteries and charging devices
could result in damage to the equipment and a possible risk of
fire, explosion, or leakage, leading to serious injuries, damages to
your phone, or other serious hazard.

GPS
GALAXY can use a Global Positioning System (GPS) signal for
location-based applications. A GPS uses satellites controlled by
the U.S. Government that are subject to changes implemented in
accordance with the Department of Defense policy and the 2008

132

Federal Radio navigation Plan (FRP). Changes may affect the
performance of location-based technology on your mobile device.
Your Location

Location-based information includes information that can be
used to determine the approximate location of a mobile device.
Mobile devices which are connected to a wireless network
transmit location-based information. Additionally, if you use
applications that require location-based information (e.g. driving
directions), such applications transmit location-based
information. The location-based information may be shared with
third-parties, including your wireless service provider,
applications providers, Samsung, and other third-parties
providing services.
Navigation

Maps, directions, and other navigation-data, including data
relating to your current location, may contain inaccurate or
incomplete data, and circumstances can and do change over
time. In some areas, complete information may not be available.
Therefore, you should always visually confirm that the
navigational instructions are consistent with what you see before
following them. All users should pay attention to road conditions,
closures, traffic, and all other factors that may impact safe driving
or walking. Always obey posted road signs.

Emergency Communication

GALAXY should not be relied upon for essential communications
(medical emergencies, calls to 911, or communications to
emergency services). GALAXY is not designed or intended to be
used for such communications. Voice Over Internet Protocol
(VOIP) services which may be used on GALAXY to make phone

Care and Maintenance
Your mobile device is a product of superior design and
craftsmanship and should be treated with care. The suggestions
below will help you fulfill any warranty obligations and allow you
to enjoy this product for many years:
Keep your Samsung Mobile Device away from:
Liquids of any kind
Keep the mobile device dry. Precipitation, humidity, and
liquids contain minerals that will corrode electronic circuits.
If the mobile device does get wet, do not accelerate drying
with the use of an oven, microwave, or dryer, because this
may damage the mobile device and could cause a fire or
explosion. Do not use the mobile device with a wet hand.
Doing so may cause an electric shock to you or damage to
the mobile device.
Health and Safety Information

133

Extreme heat or cold
Avoid temperatures below 0°C / 32°F or above 45°C / 113°F.
Microwaves
Do not try to dry your mobile device in a microwave oven.
Doing so may cause a fire or explosion.
Dust and Dirt
Do not expose your mobile device to dust, dirt, or sand.
Cleaning solutions
Do not use harsh chemicals, cleaning solvents, or strong
detergents to clean the mobile device. Wipe it with a soft
cloth slightly dampened in a mild soap-and-water solution.
Shock or vibration
Do not drop, knock, or shake the mobile device. Rough
handling can break internal circuit boards.
Paint
Do not paint the mobile device. Paint can clog the device’s
moving parts or ventilation openings and prevent proper
operation.

Responsible Listening
Caution!: Avoid potential hearing loss.

134

Damage to hearing occurs when a person is exposed to loud
sounds over time. The risk of hearing loss increases as sound is
played louder and for longer durations.
Prolonged exposure to loud sounds (including music) is the most
common cause of preventable hearing loss. Some scientific
research suggests that using portable audio devices, such as
portable music players and cell phones, at high volume settings
for long durations may lead to permanent noise-induced hearing
loss. This includes the use of headphones (including headsets,
earbuds, and Bluetooth® or other wireless devices).
Exposure to very loud sound has also been associated in some
studies with tinnitus (a ringing in the ear), hypersensitivity to
sound, and distorted hearing. Individual susceptibility to
noise-induced hearing loss and potential hearing problem varies.
Additionally, the amount of sound produced by a portable audio
device varies depending on the nature of the sound, the device
settings, and the headphones that are used. As a result, there is
no single volume setting that is appropriate for everyone or for
every combination of sound, settings, and equipment.
You should follow some common sense recommendations when
using any portable audio device:
• Always turn the volume down before plugging the earphones into an
audio source.

• Set the volume in a quiet environment and select the lowest volume at

which you can hear adequately.
• Be aware that you can adapt to higher volume settings over time, not
realizing that the higher volume may be harmful to your hearing.
• When using headphones, turn the volume down if you cannot hear the
people speaking near you or if the person sitting next to you can hear
what you are listening to.
• Do not turn the volume up to block out noisy surroundings. If you
choose to listen to your portable device in a noisy environment, use
noise-cancelling headphones to block out background environmental
noise. By blocking background environment noise, noise cancelling
headphones should allow you to hear the music at lower volumes than
when using earbuds.
• Limit the amount of time you listen. As the volume increases, less time
is required before you hearing could be affected.
• Avoid using headphones after exposure to extremely loud noises, such
as rock concerts, that might cause temporary hearing loss. Temporary
hearing loss might cause unsafe volumes to sound normal.
• Do not listen at any volume that causes you discomfort. If you
experience ringing in your ears, hear muffled speech, or experience
any temporary hearing difficulty after listening to your portable audio
device, discontinue use and consult your doctor.

Operating Environment
Remember to follow any special regulations in force in any area,
and always switch your mobile device off whenever it is
forbidden to use it, or when it may cause interference or danger.
When connecting the mobile device or any accessory to another
device, read its user's guide for detailed safety instructions. Do
not connect incompatible products.

136

Using Your Mobile Device Near Other Electronic Devices

Most modern electronic equipment is shielded from Radio
Frequency (RF) signals. However, certain electronic equipment
may not be shielded against the RF signals from your wireless
mobile device. Consult the manufacturer to discuss alternatives.
Implantable Medical Devices

A minimum separation of six (6) inches should be maintained
between a handheld wireless mobile device and an implantable
medical device, such as a pacemaker or implantable cardioverter
defibrillator, to avoid potential interference with the device.
Persons who have such devices:
• Should ALWAYS keep the mobile device more than six (6) inches from
their implantable medical device when the mobile device is turned ON;
• Should not carry the mobile device in a breast pocket;
• Should use the ear opposite the implantable medical device to
minimize the potential for interference;
• Should turn the mobile device OFF immediately if there is any reason
to suspect that interference is taking place;
• Should read and follow the directions from the manufacturer of your
implantable medical device. If you have any questions about using
your wireless mobile device with an implantable medical device,
consult your health care provider.

For more information see: http://www.fcc.gov/oet/rfsafety/rffaqs.html#.
Other Medical Devices

If you use any other personal medical devices, consult the
manufacturer of your device to determine if it is adequately
shielded from external RF energy. Your physician may be able to
assist you in obtaining this information. Switch your mobile
device off in health care facilities when any regulations posted in
these areas instruct you to do so. Hospitals or health care
facilities may be using equipment that could be sensitive to
external RF energy.
Vehicles

RF signals may affect improperly installed or inadequately
shielded electronic systems in motor vehicles. Check with the
manufacturer or its representative regarding your vehicle before
using your mobile device in a motor vehicle. You should also
consult the manufacturer of any equipment that has been added
to your vehicle.
Posted Facilities

Switch your mobile device off in any facility where posted notices
require you to do so.

Potentially Explosive Environments

Switch your mobile device off when in any area with a potentially
explosive atmosphere and obey all signs and instructions. Sparks
in such areas could cause an explosion or fire resulting in bodily
injury or even death. Users are advised to switch the mobile
device off while at a refueling point (service station).
Users are reminded of the need to observe restrictions on the use
of radio equipment in fuel depots (fuel storage and distribution
areas), chemical plants, or where blasting operations are in
progress. Areas with a potentially explosive atmosphere are
often, but not always, clearly marked. They include below deck
on boats, chemical transfer or storage facilities, vehicles using
liquefied petroleum gas (such as propane or butane), areas
where the air contains chemicals or particles, such as grain,
dust, or metal powders, and any other area where you would
normally be advised to turn off your vehicle engine.
When your Device is Wet

Do not turn on your device if it is wet. If your device is already on,
turn it off and remove the battery immediately (if the device will
not turn off or you cannot remove the battery, leave it as-is).
Then, dry the device with a towel and take it to a service center.

applicable) the website where you accessed this Privacy Policy,
(collectively, the "Service"). The purpose of the Privacy Policy is
to inform you about the types of information we gather about you
when you access or use the Service, how we may use that

disclosure, management and storage of your personal

reason.

INFORMATION THAT WE COLLECT

We may request that you supply us with "personal" information,
such as your name, e-mail address, mailing address, home or

the Service, such as via registration forms, surveys, and polls. In
each such case, you will know what categories of information we
collect because you will actively provide the information to us.

such as your IP address and other anonymous data involving your
use of the Service.
Non-personal information may also include information that you

aggregated non-personal information about our users to
understand the demographics of users of the Service, such as
the percentage of male and female users, the geographic
distribution of our users, the age ranges of our users, a
combination of these and/or other demographics. We may also
use the personal or non-personal information we collect to
analyze how Service is being used, and to improve the content of
the Service, and for marketing and promotional efforts.
E-mail Communications
If you send us an e-mail with questions or comments, we may
use your personal information to respond to your questions or

comments, and we may save your questions or comments for
future reference. Aside from our reply to such an e-mail, it is not
our standard practice to send you e-mail unless you request a
particular service that involves e-mail communications. However,
you consent to us contacting you by e-mail, and sending you
information about products and services which we believe may
be of interest to you. You may have the opportunity to subscribe
to an electronic newsletter in which case information about the
Service or our advertisers will be sent to your e-mail address. We
will provide you with the option to change your preferences and
opt-out of receiving those communications. You may request at
any time that we not e-mail you in future by clicking the

that you receive from us. If you unsubscribe, we will make
reasonable efforts to discontinue e-mail communications to you

services. In those instances, we may need to share your personal
information with them.

only to provide the particular product or service and do not
authorize them to use your personal information for any other
reason. We sometimes offer promotions in conjunction with a
third party sponsor.

your information with the sponsor if they need it to send you a
product or other special promotion they offer.
Third Party Advertisers
We may use third-party advertising companies to deliver specific
advertisements to you. These companies may collect
non-personal information about your visits to Social Hub in order
to provide advertisements about products and services that may
be of interest to you.
158

These companies may also aggregate your non-personal
information for use in targeted advertising, marketing research,
and other similar purposes. These companies may place their
own cookies on your computer. If you want to prevent a
third-party advertiser from collecting and using this information,
you may visit each third party advertiser's website directly and
opt-out.
Other Disclosures
We may disclose personal information when we are required or
requested to do so by law, court order or other government or
law enforcement authority or regulatory agency; to enforce or

The Service is not designed for use by children without their
parent's supervision. We ask that anyone under the age of
sixteen (16) not submit any personal information through the
Service. We do not knowingly collect any personal information

knowingly distribute such information to third parties.

maintain physical, electronic, and procedural safeguards to
secure your personal information. However, there is always some
risk in transmitting information electronically. The personal
information we collect is stored within databases that we control.

with industry standards, such as firewalls and encryption
technology, to protect your information. However, we cannot
guarantee the security of our databases, nor can we guarantee
that information you supply won't be intercepted while being
transmitted to us over the Internet.

CHAT ROOMS AND OTHER PUBLIC AREAS
Our third party service and content providers may offer chat, user
reviews, bulletin boards, or other public functions and any
posting by you is considered public information available to other
users. Any posting is governed in accordance with the third party
service and content providers' terms and conditions. You should
take care not to use personal information in your screen name or
other information that might be publicly available to other users.
Archived Information

possible some of this information may remain archived after we
delete the information from its active database. We maintain
archives for disaster recovery, legal and other non-marketing
purposes.
How can I update my profile?
You can help us maintain the accuracy of your profile by notifying
us when you change zip/postal code, country of residence, age

information or stop receiving communication from us, sign in to
the Service and then select 'update your profile' to change your

state and zip code, e-mail address, telephone number and date
of birth. The entry page and/or rules for the promotion will
provide the specific requirements for the promotion. You may

and information in relation to the Service. Please note that it is
