Gps & Agps; Your Location - Samsung TracFone SCH-R375C User Manual

GPS & AGPS
Certain Samsung mobile devices 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 Federal Radio navigation Plan (FRP).
Changes may affect the performance of location-based technology on your mobile
device.
Certain Samsung mobile devices can also use an Assisted Global Positioning
System (AGPS), which obtains information from the cellular network to improve GPS
performance. AGPS uses your wireless service provider's network and therefore
airtime, data charges, and/or additional charges may apply in accordance with your
service plan. Contact your wireless service provider for details.

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.
Use of AGPS in Emergency Calls
When you make an emergency call, the cellular network may activate AGPS
technology in your mobile device to tell the emergency responders your
approximate location.
AGPS has limitations and might not work in your area. Therefore:
Always tell the emergency responder your location to the best of your ability; and
•
Remain on the mobile device for as long as the emergency responder instructs you.
