Personal Information and Data
Security

The use of some functions or third-party applications on your

device could result in your personal information and data being

lost or becoming accessible to others. 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

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 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.
