Sprint’s policies often do not apply to third-party applications. Third-party applications
may access your personal information or require Sprint to disclose your customer information to the
third-party application provider. To find out how a third-party application will collect, access, use, or
disclose your personal information, check the application provider’s policies, which can usually be
found on their website. If you aren’t comfortable with the third-party application’s policies, don’t use
the application.
