connect or complete 9-1-1 calls or if inaccurate location information is provided.
9-1-1 service may not be available or reliable and your ability to receive emergency
services may be impeded. We may use a variety of information and methods to
determine the location of a 9-1-1 call, including Global Positioning Satellites, our
wireless network, or the street address you have provided us as your primary
use location. Even with this information, an emergency operator may not be
able to locate you in order to provide emergency services. Other third party
entities are involved in connecting a 9-1-1 call and Cricket does not determine the
public safety agency to which your 9-1-1 call is routed. If you are porting a phone
number to or from us, we may not be able to provide you with some Services,
such as 9-1-1 location services, while the port is being implemented. If you dial
9-1-1 while outside the U.S., 9-1-1 services may not be available.

(a) You must comply with all laws and regulations while using the Service.
Among other prohibited uses, the Service may not be used (1) for telemarketing,
