(c) Use Of Cookies
Sprint Websites 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
Website. 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 Websites in order to monitor activity and administer the sites. Sprint also
uses information obtained from cookies to improve Sprint Websites, 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 Websites
Advertising companies deliver ads on some Sprint Websites. 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 Websites and other Websites. 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
Website 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 Websites to: purchase a service or product online, enter a
contest or sweepstakes, ask to receive information, respond to a survey, register
with a Sprint Website, 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 Website
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.
