GPS
GALAXY 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.
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.
