Introduction
This privacy statement provides Yahoo!'s practices with respect to Yahoo! Mobile and the Yahoo! services available on your phone, PDA, pager, or other mobile device. For the full Yahoo! Privacy Policy, please visit http://privacy.yahoo.com/privacy/us/.
Mobile Device Unique Identifier
When connecting to Yahoo! using a mobile device that provides Internet access, if the mobile device service provider uniquely identifies the device, Yahoo! will receive this information. Yahoo! may use this unique mobile device identification information to offer extended services and/or functionality. Certain Yahoo! services may require our collection of the phone number for your device. We may associate that phone number to the mobile device identification information; however we will not use that number for telemarketing.
Physical Location
Some mobile phone service providers in the US are required to operate a system that will pinpoint the physical location of devices that use their service. Depending on the provider, Yahoo! may automatically receive this information. In the future, if Yahoo! begins to offer services that use pinpointing technology, we will ensure that we have your consent (an opt-in) before using the information.
Yahoo! may use and store this information to provide enhanced location-based services as well as to serve location-targeted advertising.
