Further, it cannot see your browser history, and it requires your permission to send you notifications or to change any settings. And, FortiToken Mobile cannot remotely wipe your phone. Any visibility FortiToken Mobile requires is to verify your OS version to determine app version compatibility. Sensitive information, such as Email Address or Token seeds may be entered during manual installation of FortiToken tokens, 3rd Party tokens, and Token Transfer. While FortiToken Mobile cannot change any settings without your permission, the following permissions are relevant to FortiToken Mobile operations: • Access to camera for scanning QR codes for easy token activation • TouchID/FaceID: used for app security, respectively. • Access to the Internet for communication to activate tokens and receive push notifications • "Send Feedback by Email", to automatically populate the "Sender" field • Internally share files between applications to prepare an attachment to be sent by email for "Send Feedback by Email" • FortiToken must keep the phone awake while it is upgrading the internal database to avoid data corruption.

BroadSoft MobileLink is a simple non-VoIP client that enables end-users to make and receive calls over their existing cellular service using their business identity. Users can dial and manage calls from their personal smartphones just as they would from their office desk phone, including tracking calls, picking up business voicemail, managing personal settings, and more. With MobileLink, users can also search corporate directories, click-to-dial from the contact, and manage calling options, including call through (direct dial without pin codes or two-stage dialing) and call back (invokes a call from the BroadWorks system, avoiding roaming charges.) Operator and system neutral, MobileLink is completely integrated with the BroadWorks® service delivery platform, turning the business user’s personal mobile into an extension of the PBX. MobileLink also integrates with BroadSoft Msg.Now — a fixed-line text messaging solution that allows users to send and receive text messages using their business number. ********************************************* Note: MobileLink will only work in conjunction of a service provided by your service provider. Please contact your service provider for details. *********************************************
