Safety & Warranty
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.
(c) Use Of Cookies
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
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:
