Controlling data usage
Data is information sent from or received to your mobile device. You may use data on
your device when you access the Internet, check your email, play games, use apps
(for example, Facebook™, Twitter™, and so on) and more. Background tasks, such
as syncing or location services, may also use data. Data usage is billed based on the
amount of data sent and received (megabytes or gigabytes), and it can be charged
per-use or as part of a data package.
