A Quick Summary of Our Privacy Policy
Our Privacy Policy applies to your use of all products, services and websites offered by AT&T and our AT&T affiliates, such as
DIRECTV, unless they have a different privacy policy. Because some apps, including some AT&T and DTV branded apps,
require additional information, or use information in different ways, they may have their own privacy policies and/or terms and
conditions. These apps may also offer you additional choices for managing your personal information.

AT&T Privacy Policy FAQ
Our AT&T Privacy Policy in easy to understand, FAQ format.
We understand that everyone thinks that privacy policies are long, complicated and difficult to understand. So we're going to
try to make this as simple as possible.
What is the purpose of AT&T’s Privacy Policy? Whenever you do something like buy or use one of our products or services
or visit our websites, information is created. Because we know privacy is important to you, we have the AT&T Privacy Policy to
explain how we collect, use, protect, and share that created information. Thus, the main purpose of the Policy is to help you

Definitions
Let's start with what we mean when we say:
Aggregate Information: We combine individual information into anonymous groups of customers or users. One way to think
of it is in terms of a survey or opinion poll. Aggregate information would tell you that 80 percent of the people voted for a
candidate, but not who actually voted. These groups are large enough to reasonably prevent individuals from being identified.
Anonymous Information: Information that doesn't directly identify and can't reasonably be used to identify an individual
customer or user.
AT&T: Throughout this Policy, references to “AT&T,” “we,” “us,” and “our” include the family of AT&T companies around the
world except affiliates or applications with a separate privacy policy.
Customer: Anyone who purchases or uses our products or services. When a customer purchases retail products or services
for use by others, like a family account, those family members also are customers.
Mobile Application: A software application that runs on smartphones, tablet computers or other mobile devices and that
allows users to access a variety of services and information.
Personal Information: Information that directly identifies or reasonably can be used to figure out the identity of a customer or
user, such as your name, address, phone number and e-mail address. Personal Information does not include published listing
information.
Relevant Advertising: Creates aggregate audience segments based on non-personally identifiable information about
customers (like age, ethnicity, income range, a particular geographic area, and their interests) to serve advertising that is more
likely to be useful to those audience segments. "Online behavioral advertising" is one type of Relevant Advertising. It uses
interest categories based on the websites visited by people who are not personally identified to deliver advertising online.
Third-Party Services: Services from third-party service providers other than AT&T, such as banks or roadside assistance
companies.
User: Anyone who visits our websites or uses our mobile applications.
Website: And other terms like "Internet site," "site" and "web page" all mean the same thing, namely any page or location on
the Internet, no matter what device (cell phone, tablet, laptop, PC, etc.) or protocol (http, WAP, ftp or other) is used to access
the page or location.

Questions about the Scope of this Policy
1. To whom does the Policy apply?
This Privacy Policy applies to customers and users of AT&T products and services, except customers and users of products or
services provided by an affiliate or an application with a different privacy policy.
2. What does this Policy cover?
This Privacy Policy covers our practices regarding the information we collect about our customers and users (how we collect it
and how we use it). Use of our products and services, as well as visits to our websites, are subject to this Privacy Policy.
3. Do you have any Privacy Policies other than this one?
Yes. Some AT&T affiliates or applications may have separate privacy policies that describe how they collect, use and share
information they collect from their customers and users. When we share Personal Information with those affiliates or combine
it with information from those applications we protect it in a way consistent with this Privacy Policy.
Additionally, some of our applications may have terms and conditions that describe other privacy commitments or choices in
addition to those in this Privacy Policy.
Some areas outside the United States require us to work a little differently. In that case, we may adopt separate privacy
policies as necessary to reflect the requirements of applicable local laws.
The Joint AT&T EchoStar Privacy Policy for AT&T|DISH Network Customer Account Information remains in effect for
AT&T|DISH subscribers.
4. What about my family members and other users of my AT&T account? Does this Policy apply to them?
Yes. You're responsible for making sure all family members or other users under your account understand and agree to this
Policy. Get everyone together and talk about it. Or, send it by e-mail to make sure they're on board. Hang it on the fridge. Up
to you, just share it!
5. When is information not covered by this Policy?
If you purchase or use the products or services of an AT&T affiliate that has a different privacy policy than this one, that
privacy policy will apply.
Additionally, this Privacy Policy does not apply any time you give information to companies other than AT&T. Some examples
are:
When you use a non-AT&T Wi-Fi service;
When you download applications or make purchases from other companies while using our Internet or wireless services;
When you go to a non-AT&T website from one of our websites or applications (by clicking on a link or an advertisement, for
example);
When you give your information to another company through a website co-branded by AT&T but controlled by the other
company;
If you use public forums - such as social networking services, Internet bulletin boards, chat rooms, or blogs - the
information is publicly available, and we cannot prevent distribution and use of that information by other parties;
Information about your location, usage and the numbers you dial when you're out and about and roaming on the network
of another company;
When you purchase or use non-AT&T products (such as wireless devices, internet browsers and mobile applications) in
combination with our services;
When we license our brand to other companies for their use in marketing and selling certain non-AT&T products and
services, information you give those companies is not covered by this Policy.
6. Can my information be covered by this Policy and other privacy policies at the same time?
Yes, that can happen. For example:
Sometimes we will work with other, unaffiliated companies to provide a service. In that case your information may be subject
to this Policy and that of the other company. For example, you purchase one of our products or services from a retailer like

Best Buy or Amazon.com, any information you provide to them may be subject to both their policy and ours.
If you connect to our Wi-Fi service through another network, such as one provided in a hotel, airport or other venue, any
information collected from your use of that network could be subject to either the AT&T Privacy Policy or the venue policy, and
sometimes both. The same thing applies if you connect to our network through your employer's corporate network, or any
network operated by a non-AT&T company.
We think it's a great idea to take a look at the privacy policies of any companies you do business with to learn how they use
your information.
7. What about business customers?
We may have written product or service agreements with our business customers that contain specific provisions about
confidentiality, security or handling of information. When one of these agreements differs from or conflicts with this Policy, the
terms of those agreements will apply. In all other instances, the terms of this Policy apply.

Questions About Information Sharing
1. Do you provide information for phone books and Caller ID?
Yes and No.
Yes, we share the names, addresses and telephone numbers of our wireline telephone and U-verse Voice customers with
businesses that publish directories and provide directory assistance services. We are required by law to do that. You may
contact us (http://web.archive.org/web/20180201040115/http://about.att.com/sites/privacy_policy/terms#contact) and
we honor your request for non-published or non-listed phone numbers. Once we provide published listing information to those
businesses, they may use, sort, package, repackage and make it available again in different formats to anyone.
Yes, we also provide wireline and wireless calling name and number information for CallerID, and related services like Call
Trace, which allow a person receiving a call to obtain the name and number of the party calling them.
No, we do not give listing information for wireless numbers to phone book publishers or directory assistance services without
your permission.
2. Do you share my Personal Information internally?
Yes. Our products and services are developed, managed, marketed and sold by a variety of our affiliated companies. We may
share Personal Information internally, including with affiliated companies that may have different privacy policies. When we do
this we require the affiliated company or companies to protect the Personal Information in a way consistent with this Privacy
Policy. We may also combine Personal Information with data derived from an application that has a different privacy policy.
When we do that, this Privacy Policy applies to the combined data set. Sharing information in these ways helps us offer you
the high quality, seamless and innovative range of products you have come to expect from us. Some of these include:
Wireless voice, data, Internet, home security, automation and remote monitoring services provided by AT&T Mobility and
AT&T Digital Life; and
The suite of satellite and IPTV services, Voice and High Speed Internet Access services offered by our companies.

If one of our subsidiaries does not operate under the AT&T brand, information sharing with that subsidiary is handled as
though it is a non-AT&T company.
3. Do you share my Personal Information with other non-AT&T companies for them to market to me?
We will only share your Personal Information with other non-AT&T companies for them to use for the marketing of their own
products and services when we have your consent.
4. Are there any other times when you might provide my Personal Information to other non-AT&T companies or
entities?
Yes. We share your Personal Information with other, non-AT&T companies that perform services for us, like processing your
bill. Because we take our responsibility to safeguard your Personal Information seriously, we do not allow those companies to
use it for any purpose other than to perform those services, and we require them to protect it in a way consistent with this
Privacy Policy. Companies that perform these services may be located outside the United States or the jurisdiction where you
reside. If your Personal Information is shared with these companies, it could be accessible to government authorities
according to the laws that govern those jurisdictions. There are also occasions when we provide Personal Information to other
non-AT&T companies or other entities, such as government agencies, credit bureaus and collection agencies, without your
consent. Some examples include sharing to:
Comply with court orders, subpoenas, lawful discovery requests and other legal or regulatory requirements, and to enforce
our legal rights or defend against legal claims;
Obtain payment or make refunds for products and services that appear on your AT&T billing statements, including the
transfer or sale of delinquent accounts or refund obligations to third parties for collection or payment.
Enforce our agreements and protect our rights or property;
Assist with identity verification and e-mail address validation;
Respond to lawful requests by public authorities, including to meet national security or law enforcement requirements;
Notify, respond or provide information (including location information) to a responsible governmental entity in emergency or
exigent circumstances or in situations involving immediate danger of death or serious physical injury; and
Notify the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children of information concerning child pornography of which we
become aware through the provision of our services.
5. Do you share my personally identifiable TV Viewing Information with other, non-AT&T companies?
We don't share your personally identifiable TV Viewing Information with other non-AT&T companies for them to use for the
marketing of their own products and services without your consent. We are required to notify you about the special
requirements we must follow when it comes to sharing your personally identifiable TV Viewing Information in response to a
Court Order:
Notice Regarding Disclosure of Personally Identifiable Information of Satellite and IPTV Subscribers in Response to
A Court Order
In the case of a court order obtained by a non-governmental entity, we are authorized to disclose personally identifiable
information collected from TV subscribers as a result of the subscriber's use of TV service only after providing prior notice
to the subscriber.
In the case of a court order obtained by a governmental entity, we are authorized to disclose personally identifiable
information collected from TV subscribers as a result of the subscriber's use of TV service only if, in the court proceeding
relevant to the order:
The governmental entity offers clear and convincing evidence that the subject of the information is reasonably
suspected of engaging in criminal activity and that the information sought would be material evidence in the case; and
The subject of the information has an opportunity to appear and contest the governmental entity's claim; and
We have provided notice to the subscriber as required by applicable state law.

Questions About My Information and Advertising
1. Do you use my information to send me advertising?

Yes. We may use information like the preferences you have expressed and interests you have demonstrated on our websites,
in our stores and through use of our products and services, to provide you with marketing information and advertisements for
our products and services. Those ads may be delivered on our websites and mobile applications. This is called "first party"
advertising. It is part of our service relationship and you are not able to opt-out from this type of advertising.
We or our advertising partners may use anonymous information gathered through cookies and similar technologies
(/web/20180201040115/https://about.att.com/sites/privacy_policy/cookies_and_other_technologies), as well as other
anonymous and aggregate information that either of us may have to help us tailor the ads you see on non-AT&T sites. For
example, if you see an ad from us on a non-AT&T sports-related website, you may later receive an ad for sporting equipment
delivered by us on a different website. This is called Online Behavioral Advertising, which is a type of Relevant Advertising.
2. Do you use my information for other types of Relevant Advertising?
Yes. We may also use information we get through your use of our products and services, from our advertising partners, and
information like your age and gender to deliver Relevant Advertising that is not Online Behavioral Advertising. We combine
your anonymous information with that of other users into aggregate "audience segments". These segments are based on
particular interests and/or factual characteristics that everyone in that audience segment is likely to share. We might use that
information to send you advertisements that are relevant to those interests or characteristics. We are careful to only use nonpersonally identifiable information to create Relevant Advertising with aggregate audience segments that are large enough
that you can't be identified individually.
In some cases you may agree to participate in advertising offers or programs through loyalty programs, when you download a
mobile app, or other similar programs. In those cases, you will be told about the advertising program when you sign up. For
more information about those advertising programs, please consult the terms, conditions, and policies of the specific
application or loyalty programs you are interested in or have joined.
3. Do you use the location of my device for advertising purposes?
Yes. We use information about the locations you visit in order to create combined wireless location interest characteristics that
can be used to provide Relevant Advertising to you and others like you.
Location characteristics are types of locations - like "movie theaters". People who live in a particular geographic area (a city,
ZIP-code or ZIP+ 4 code, for example) might appear to have a high interest in movies, thanks to collective information that
shows wireless devices from that area are often located in the vicinity of movie theaters. We might create a "movies
characteristic" for that area, and deliver movie ads to the people who live there.
We may associate your wireless device with a particular geographic area, such as a city, ZIP-code, or ZIP + 4 code, based on
your billing address or the cell towers you connect with most frequently.
In addition to other privacy protections, the process we use to create our audience segment includes a requirement that the
ZIP + 4 or other geographic area to which a wireless location is assigned must contain a minimum of 25 households. ZIP + 4
codes with less than 25 households are combined with other ZIP + 4 codes to satisfy this requirement.
4. What's in it for me?
Just like the name says, you get advertising that's more relevant to your interests. For example, if a particular audience
segment, like adults between the ages of 21 and 25 with a certain income range, has demonstrated a greater interest in
movies than other segments, we might send them a movie ad for a movie geared toward young adults. This is just one way
we deliver content that's more relevant.
5. How do you use information about the programs I watch on TV to advertise to me?
We combine information about the shows that our customers are watching with their common interests to help us figure out
what types of advertising they might be interested in seeing.
It sometimes works like this: We look at the group of people watching a particular show. We identify common characteristics
within that group. We use those characteristics to identify and deliver advertising that might be most relevant to watchers of
that TV show. We might also deliver that same advertising during shows that appear to have similar audiences.
6. Do I ever have a chance to tell you what I'm personally interested in?

Yes. With some programs offered or powered by AT&T you can sign up to receive text-message offers from businesses that
are near your current location and match the interests you've selected. You can change your mind at any time and stop
participating in these programs.
7. What information do you provide to advertisers?
We may provide reports to advertisers and other business customers about the success of its advertising campaigns. Those
reports contain aggregate information about the number of times a particular ad was viewed, when it was viewed, whether it
was viewed on a TV, a mobile device or a computer, demographics associated with the viewing audience and other similar
information. Your anonymous information will not be included in aggregate reports about the success of Relevant Advertising
campaigns if you have opted-out of Relevant Advertising delivered by AT&T.

Questions About Location Information
1. What is location information?
Exactly what it sounds like! It includes your ZIP-code and street address, as well as the whereabouts of your wireless device.
2. How is it used?
We use it in all kinds of ways, here are some examples:
We Provide Wireless Voice and Data Services: We monitor, collect and use wireless location information, together with
other information we get from our network and your wireless device, to maintain and improve our network. We also might
use location information with your consent to provide you with a customized experience. For example, when you dial 411
Directory Assistance for a business telephone number, we might use your wireless location information to return the
number of the business location closest to you.
Location Based Services (LBS): Your device can be used to access a ton of services based on location. We offer these
services via applications that have been pre-loaded or downloaded by you on your device. LBS also may be provided via
text message or other functionality. We’ll give you prior notice and ask for your consent when your location is used or
shared. The form of consent may vary, but will be appropriate for the type of LBS you use.
LBS from other providers: With your consent (to us or the other company) we also may enable LBS from other
companies by providing location information to their developers or location service providers.
We use it for Advertising
3. How accurate is wireless location information?
It depends on the technology we're using. For example, we can locate your device based on the cell tower that's serving you.
The range could be up to 1,000 meters in any direction from the tower in urban areas, and up to 10,000 meters in rural areas.
Wi-Fi networks provide more accurate location information, associating you with the place where the network is located - like a
coffee shop - or to an area within or around that place.
Services such as 411, 911, a "friend locator" application or a navigation/mapping application, require more precise information.
So for those we develop a more precise estimate of location by associating the serving cell tower ID with other information,
like the latitude and longitude of the tower, radio frequency parameters, GPS information and timing differences in radio
signals. Depending on a variety of factors, those methods may estimate the location of your device to within 30 to 1000
meters.
4. Are you the only ones who can locate my wireless device?
Other companies may also be able to locate your device. For example, your handset manufacturer and your operating system
provider may be able to locate your device. If you download mobile applications, those apps may be able to obtain your
location directly from your handset or the operating system. Mobile applications that give you access to your employer's
network may also give your employer the ability to locate your device.
We urge you to review policies of all providers.

Questions About Aggregate and Anonymous Information
1. Where do you get anonymous information?
Sometimes we'll collect information about how you use our products using cookies and other similar technologies
(/web/20180201040115/https://about.att.com/sites/privacy_policy/cookies_and_other_technologies). This information
doesn't include your Personal Information and is considered anonymous.
When we collect information that identifies you personally, we may anonymize it for certain purposes. We remove data fields
(such as name, address and telephone number) that can reasonably be used to identify you. We also use a variety of
statistical techniques and operational controls to anonymize data. Anonymizing information is one of the tools we use to
protect your privacy.
2. Tell me more about aggregate information.
Aggregate information is a form of anonymous information. We combine data that meet certain criteria into anonymous
groups. For example, we might want to compare how customers in Beverly Hills, CA (or any city, county or ZIP-code) use their
cell phones to how customers in Boulder, CO use their cell phones. In order to do that, we would combine customer data in
each of the geographies into anonymous groups and look at all that aggregate data to understand how the two groups are
different or similar.
3. Do you share anonymous or aggregate information?
Yes, we may share this information with other companies and entities for specific uses, which may include:
Universities, laboratories, think tanks and other entities that conduct networking, social, behavioral, environmental and
other types of scientific research, for the purpose of creating fundamental new knowledge;
Municipalities, government or other entities that may use this data for purposes such as municipal and transportation
planning, and emergency and disaster response coordination.
We share this information in external reports like our External Marketing & Analytics Reports and Metric Reports.
Back to Top

Questions About External Marketing & Analytics Reports
1. Tell me more about the External Marketing & Analytics Program.
We use aggregate information to create External Marketing & Analytics Reports that we may sell to other companies for their
own marketing, advertising or other similar uses.
These reports may be a combination of information from wireless and Wi-Fi locations, TV Viewing, calling and texting records,
website browsing and mobile application usage and other information we have about you and other customers. You have a
choice about whether your anonymous information is included in the reports that we sell or provide to other companies.
Some examples of External Marketing & Analytics Reports include:
Reports for retail businesses that show the number of wireless devices in or near their store locations by time of day and
day of the week, together with demographic characteristics or other information about the users (such as device type, age
or gender) in those groups.
Reports that combine anonymous TV Viewing behaviors with other aggregate information we may have about our
subscribers to create reports that would help a TV network better understand the audiences that are viewing their
programs, those that are not, how frequently they watch, when they watch and other similar information; and
Reports for device manufacturers that combine information such as device type, make and model with demographic and
regional location information to reflect the popularity of particular device types with various customer segments.
2. Do you provide companies with individual anonymous data as part of your External Marketing & Analytics
Program?
Yes. For example, we might share anonymous TV Viewing Information with media research companies that combine this data
with other information to provide audience analysis services about what shows certain audience segments are watching.
When we provide individual anonymous information to businesses, we require that they only use it to compile aggregate
http://web.archive.org/web/20180201040115/https://about.att.com/sites/privacy_policy/full_privacy_policy

reports, and for no other purpose. We also require businesses to agree they will not attempt to identify any person using this
information, and that they will handle it in a secure manner, consistent with this Policy.
3. Do you use my anonymous information in other types of external reports?
Yes, we may use your anonymous information to provide Metrics Reports to our business customers and service suppliers.
These reports are considered part of the underlying service and we do not sell them to other customers or suppliers.
For example, if you connect to our Wi-Fi service in a hotel, airport or other venue you should know the operator of that venue
is our business customer, and that we will provide that operator with Metrics Reports about usage of and communications with
the Wi-Fi network in their location. Those reports contain statistical information like:
The number of devices connecting to the Wi-Fi network, duration of Wi-Fi sessions and the amount of bandwidth used
during those sessions; and
Foot-traffic data, including the numbers of devices inside and outside the store at a given time; the number of new and
frequent visitors; where visitors are located within the store (e.g., specific departments or other locations within the venue)
and frequency of visits and time spent within the store.
NOTE: When your wireless device is turned on, it regularly sends out signals that enable it to connect to cell towers, Wi-Fi
access points or other technologies so that we (and others) are able to provide you with services. These signals can be
used to determine your device location. You can turn Wi-Fi to the "off" position on the "settings" feature of your device to
prevent the collection of these signals by Wi-Fi equipment in retail stores and other public places.
Another example, we also license video programming from content providers. As part of our agreement, we provide them with
Metrics Reports. These reports contain combined measurements and statistical information related to the number of TV
subscribers who watched or accessed a particular program at a particular time and other similar measurements.

1. Do you collect information about my children's use?
We do not knowingly collect personally identifying information from anyone under the age of 13 unless we first obtain
permission from the child's parent or legal guardian.
2. What happens when my child is using an account not registered to them?
Internet and wireless devices and services purchased for family use may be used by children without our knowledge. When
that happens, information collected may appear to us to be associated with the adult customer who subscribes to our services

Questions About Data Protection & Security
1. Do we sell your Personal Information?
No. We do not sell your Personal Information
(/web/20180201040115/https://about.att.com/sites/privacy_policy/terms#definitions) to anyone, for any purpose. Period.
2. How long do we keep your Personal Information?
We keep your Personal Information
(/web/20180201040115/https://about.att.com/sites/privacy_policy/terms#definitions) as long as we need it for business,
tax or legal purposes. After that, we destroy it by making it unreadable or undecipherable.
3. What safeguards does AT&T have in place?
We've worked hard to protect your information. And we've established electronic and administrative safeguards designed to
make the information we collect secure. Some examples of those safeguards include:
All of our employees are subject to the AT&T Code of Business Conduct (COBC)
(http://web.archive.org/web/20180201040115/https://www.att.com/Common/about_us/downloads/att_code_of_business_conduct.pdf)
and certain state-mandated codes of conduct. Under the COBC, all employees must follow the laws, rules, regulations,
court and/or administrative orders that apply to our business - including, specifically, the legal requirements and company
policies surrounding the privacy of communications and the security and privacy of your records. We take this seriously,
and any of our employees who fail to meet the standards we've set in the COBC are subject to disciplinary action. That
includes dismissal.
We've implemented technology and security features and strict policy guidelines to safeguard the privacy of your Personal
Information. Some examples are:
Maintaining and protecting the security of computer storage and network equipment, and using our security procedures
that require employee user names and passwords to access sensitive data;
Applying encryption or other appropriate security controls to protect Personal Information when stored or transmitted by
us;
Limiting access to Personal Information to only those with jobs requiring such access; and
Requiring caller/online authentication before providing Account Information so that only you or someone who knows
your Account Information will be able to access or change the information.
Although we strive to keep your Personal Information secure, no security measures are perfect, and we cannot
guarantee that your Personal Information will never be disclosed in a manner inconsistent with this Policy (for example,
as the result of unauthorized acts by third parties that violate the law or this Policy).
4. Will you notify me in case of a security breach?
Laws and regulations guide us in how to give you notification when certain types of sensitive information are involved in a
security breach. We will provide you with notice in accordance with these laws and regulations.
5. Can I review and correct my Personal Information?

Questions About Future Changes
1. What happens if there is a change in corporate ownership?
Information about our customers and users, including Personal Information, may be shared and transferred as part of any
merger, acquisition, sale of company assets or transition of service to another provider. This also applies in the unlikely
event of an insolvency, bankruptcy or receivership in which customer and user records would be transferred to another
entity as a result of such a proceeding.
2. Will I be notified if there are changes to this policy?
We may update this Privacy Policy as necessary to reflect changes we make and to satisfy legal requirements. We will
post a prominent notice of material changes on our websites. We will provide you with other appropriate notice of important
changes at least 30 days before the effective date.

Online Behavioral Advertising: Advertising that is customized based on predictions generated from your visits over
time and across different websites is sometimes called "online behavioral" or "interest-based" advertising. In
accordance with industry self-regulatory principles, you can opt out of online behavioral advertising from companies
who participate in the Digital Advertising Alliance
(http://web.archive.org/web/20180201040115/http://www.aboutads.info/) by going to their Consumer Choice Page
(http://web.archive.org/web/20180201040115/http://www.aboutads.info/choices/#completed) or by clicking on this
icon (http://web.archive.org/web/20180201040115/http://www.aboutads.info/) when you see it on an online ad.
Opt-out of online behavioral advertising from many other ad networks at the Network Advertising Initiative (NAI) site
(http://web.archive.org/web/20180201040115/http://www.networkadvertising.org/choices/).

for information on how to manage cookies and other similar technologies on your computer.
Advertising on att.net: Opt-out of receiving interest-based advertising when using our att.net portal services powered
by Synacor (http://web.archive.org/web/20180201040115/http://www.aboutads.info/choices). Opt-out of interestbased advertising on att.net from Yahoo! This covers att.net email and also the Yahoo!
(http://web.archive.org/web/20180201040115/https://aim.yahoo.com/aim/us/en/optout/index.htm) portal that is
being retired.
Advertising Offers from Apps and Loyalty Programs: In some cases you may agree to participate in advertising
offers or programs through loyalty programs, when you download a mobile app, or other similar programs. For
example, if you have the DIRECTV app, you can find out more about your choices concerning how your DIRECTV
viewing information is used and shared here
(http://web.archive.org/web/20180201040115/https://www.directv.com/DTVAPP/content/support/DTVAPP_policy).
2. Do I have choices about receiving first party advertisements from AT&T?

Because first party advertising is part of the service you receive when you visit our websites and use our mobile
applications, we don't offer an opt-out for first party advertising.

3. Can I choose not to receive marketing and other types of communication from AT&T?

We realize that unwanted marketing contacts can be a hassle and we've worked hard to meet the expectations of
customers and potential customers who have expressed a desire to limit certain types of solicitation
communications from us.
E-Mail: Every marketing e-mail we send contains instructions and a link that will allow you to stop additional
marketing e-mails for that product or service type. You also can unsubscribe from AT&T marketing e-mails here
(http://web.archive.org/web/20180201040115/http://www.att.com/remove).
Text Messages: Opt-out of AT&T marketing text message contacts by replying "stop" to any message.
AT&T Consumer Telemarketing: Ask to be removed from our consumer telemarketing lists by contacting us at
one of the numbers listed here
(/web/20180201040115/https://about.att.com/sites/privacy_policy/rights_choices#cpnicontact). You also can
ask the AT&T representative to remove you from our telemarketing lists when you receive a marketing or
promotional call from us.
AT&T Business Telemarketing: Where required by local laws and/or regulations, we honor requests to be
removed from our telemarketing lists from business customers.
Federal Do Not Call: The FTC maintains a National Do Not Call Registry at donotcall.gov
(http://web.archive.org/web/20180201040115/http://www.donotcall.gov/), and some states in the United States
may maintain its own Do Not Call Registry. Putting your number on these Registries also may limit our AT&T
telemarketing calls to that number.
Postal Mail: To review our Residential Do Not Mail Policy Statement and to limit postal mail solicitations, click here
(/web/20180201040115/https://about.att.com/sites/privacy_policy/att_consumer_marketing). You will still
receive billing statements, legal notices, product updates and other similar correspondence, and you may still
receive some promotional mailings.
All of our practices are designed to satisfy state, provincial and federal legal requirements limiting marketing
contacts. Those laws and regulations - such as the requirements governing the state and federal "Do Not Call" lists
- generally permit companies to contact their own current and, in some cases, former customers, even when those
customers are listed on the federal and state "Do Not Call" lists.
Automated Calls or Messages: In some cases, we will ask for your permission to send you automated calls or
messages to your mobile phone. To opt out of these calls or messages from AT&T, please go to Manage Your
Privacy Choices (http://web.archive.org/web/20180201040115/http://www.att.com/cmpchoice). As required or
allowed by law, even if you opt out, AT&T may continue to contact you with automated calls or messages at the
telephone number issued by us for certain important informational messages about your service. For example, we
may need to let you know about a problem with your wireless service.
Restricting our use of your CPNI will not eliminate all types of our marketing contacts.
4. Can I choose to exclude my anonymous information from your External Marketing & Analytics and other similar
reports?

Yes. Click here (http://web.archive.org/web/20180201040115/https://www.att.com/cmpchoice) to opt-out. This
opt-out also applies to the sharing of your anonymous information with other companies for their use in creating
marketing and analytics reports. Although this opt out does not apply to Metrics Reports, it will apply if we combine
Metrics Report information with other customer information (like demographics) to create reports that we provide to
our business customers or service suppliers.
5. What is DNS error assist?

When you mistype a web address, or the address is not working, DNS Error Assist provides an automated list of
similar pages – such as possibly the one you meant to type – for your consideration. The service is provided on
your AT&T residential broadband connection, and you can opt-out here
(http://web.archive.org/web/20180201040115/http://www.att.com/cmpchoice). If you opt-out, you will get a
standard “no results found” error message instead of the error-assist page.
6. Are there any other opt-out choices I should know about?

We may use services provided by analytics companies to obtain information about website performance and how
you use our mobile applications and other products and services. Go here
(http://web.archive.org/web/20180201040115/http://www.aboutads.info/choices/) for more information about
the opt-outs made available by some of those vendors, and to make choices about participation. Based on your
permission, we may share your mobile device location or other mobile subscriber information with third parties
when you use Third-Party Services, such as to prevent fraud when making a bank transaction. If you want to
change that permission, you can opt out directly with the third party or you can opt out by going to Manage Your
Privacy Choices.
7. These Choices and Controls also are available at http://about.att.com/sites/privacy_policy/rights_choices

Customer Proprietary Network Information
(CPNI)
What is CPNI?
“CPNI” is information about your phone service from us. Your phone service could be a cell phone or any sort of home or
business phone. The “information” is things like what kind of services you have, how you use them, or billing information.
(Your telephone number, name and address are not considered CPNI.)

How is CPNI Used and Disclosed?
We do not sell, trade or share your CPNI with anyone outside of the AT&T family of companies* or our authorized agents,
unless required by law (example: a court order).
We do use your CPNI internally, however. We may share information about our customers among the AT&T companies and
our agents in order to offer you new or enhanced services. For example, we might offer a discount or promotion for Internet or
TV services based on your CPNI.

How may I limit the use of my CPNI?
AT&T uses technology and security features, and strict policy guidelines with ourselves and our agents, to safeguard the
privacy of CPNI. It is your right and our duty under federal law to protect the confidentiality of your CPNI.
If you don’t want AT&T to use your CPNI internally for things like offers, here is what you can do:
You can “opt out” online, at att.com/ecpnioptout
(http://web.archive.org/web/20180201040115/http://att.com/ecpnioptout), or
You can call 800.315.8303, any time of day, and follow the prompts, or
You can speak to a service representative at 800.288.2020 (consumer) or 800.321.2000 (business).

If you choose to restrict our use of your CPNI, it won’t affect any of your services. You can change your mind at any time about
allowing (or not allowing) us to use your CPNI, and we’ll honor your decision until you change it again. If you do restrict your
CPNI use, you may still get marketing from us, but it won’t be from using CPNI.
