by using protocols such as “POP”. When you set up mail accounts through the Danger Service, Danger
collects the email addresses and other information associated with these accounts and stores the content
of the email messages sent to these accounts on its servers.
Personal Information may also be collected at other times by specifically requesting it from you, such
as when you order premium services, when you request other promotional material, when we ask you to
complete customer surveys, and in other circumstances when you interact with the Danger Service or our
employees, agents and contractors working to provide the Danger Service to you.
Anonymous Information
Danger collects and stores Anonymous Information relating to the use of the Danger Service. For example,
Danger’s servers automatically gather information regarding which Web pages are visited by users of the
Danger Service. In addition, Danger collects data regarding subscribers’ usage of various features of the
Service, such as how many email messages or IM messages are sent by a particular user or by users in the
aggregate, the most popular Web sites visited by users of the Service, the number of Web pages viewed
at the Danger Service Web Site, and other similar information. Similarly, for network monitoring purposes,
the Danger Service records how many devices in the aggregate are connected to the Service in particular
geographic locations, but the Service does not identify the location of individual devices or subscrib-
ers. All of this Anonymous Information gathered from your use of the Danger Service is stored by Danger
under an automatically generated identification number that will not be linked to your name or your other
Personal Information without your consent, except as specifically provided in the “Use of Anonymous
Information” section below.
Private Data and Online Communications
Danger stores certain information on its servers at your request. As described above, you may request that
Danger retrieve email messages from email accounts maintained by third parties. The content of instant
messaging conversations may also be temporarily stored on Danger’s servers pending delivery to your
wireless device. In addition, you may store addresses, calendar information, to do lists, notes, and photo-
graphs on the Danger Service, either through your wireless device or by uploading such information at the
Danger Service Web Site. If you input such information directly on your wireless device, it is automatically
synchronized with and stored on Danger’s servers and is available to you through both the device and the
Danger Service Web Site.
