About permissions for third-party
programs
You can set whether third-party programs on your
BlackBerry® device can use data or connections from
other programs. For example, a third-party program
might use data from personal information
management (PIM) programs or connections from
programs such as the phone.
On the Permissions screen, if you set a permission
field to Allow, you are granting third-party programs
access to that program or connection.
If you set a permission field to Prompt, you are
prompted whenever a third-party program requests
access to that program or connection.
If you set a permission field to Deny, access to that
program or connection by third-party programs is
designed to be blocked.
If programs or connections within a group have
different permission values, the permission field for
the group is Custom.
