Several measures are recommended to help you protect personal and confidential
information.
• Place your device in a safe area to prevent it from unauthorized use.
• Set your device screen to lock and create a password or unlock pattern to open it.
• Periodically back up personal information kept on your SIM/UIM card, memory
card, or stored in your device memory. If you change to a different device, be sure
to move or delete any personal information on your old device.
• If you are worried about viruses when you receive messages or emails from a
stranger, you can delete them without opening them.
• If you use your device to browse the Internet, avoid websites that might pose a
security risk to avoid theft of your personal information.
• If you use services such as Wi-Fi tether or Bluetooth, set passwords for these
services to prevent unauthorized access. When these services are not in use, turn
them off.
• Install or upgrade device security software and regularly scan for viruses.
• Be sure to obtain third-party applications from a legitimate source. Downloaded
third-party applications should be scanned for viruses.
• Install security software or patches released by Huawei or third-party application
providers.
• Some applications require and transmit location information. As a result, a third-
party may be able to share your location information.
• Your device may provide detection and diagnostic information to third-party
application providers. Third party vendors use this information to improve their
products and services.
• If you have concerns about the security of your personal information and data,
please contact mobile@huawei.com.
