Location Based Services (LBS)
Your wireless device can determine its (and your) physical,
geographical location (“Location Information”). Certain software
applications are capable of accessing, collecting and using Location
Information and disclosing the information to the application provider
and other people. You should use caution and discretion when
determining whether or not Location Information should be made
available to them.
By changing the setting on the device to “LOCATION ON” you are
enabling third party access to Location Information through software,
widgets or peripheral components you choose to download, add or
attach to your wireless device. Verizon Wireless encourages you to
check your wireless device periodically and only use software, widgets
and peripheral components that are obtained from reliable sources.
When you use your mobile browser or other services and applications,
you authorize Verizon Wireless to collect, use and disclose your
Location Information as appropriate to provide you with any location
services that you enabled.
Verizon Wireless does not retain Location Information longer than
necessary to provide the services to you.
We will not knowingly disclose your Location Information to third
parties without your consent. You should carefully review the privacy
policies of application providers and third parties who you allow
access to your Location Information, and you should know that
significant risks can be associated with disclosing your Location
Information to others.
