Dear AUSA

Apple Inc. (“Apple”) is providing APL000001 through APL000004 in response to the legal request received by Apple on 2019-08-13. These files are true copies of the data Apple has located based on a reasonable search of the last 12 months of its data using the criteria and information provided in the legal request. Said files were prepared by Apple personnel in the ordinary course of business.

For data security and customer confidentiality purposes, Apple’s production of data containing customer personally identifying information is encrypted using GPG encryption software. Law enforcement officers who receive Apple data must be able to manage production files encrypted with the GPG format without technical assistance from Apple.

Technical information relating to GPG encryption software is available at: http://www.gpg4win.org/doc/en/gpg4win-compendium.html. Information in relation to installing GPG on Windows OS is included in this link under the heading ‘Installing Gpg4win’. If you require further technical assistance/information, please consult your agency’s Information Technology Department.

The password for the GPG file will be provided in a separate email. Please note, any .xls files will need to be opened in “Read Only” mode.

You may note entries from IP addresses beginning with “17.” and/or “10.” for any available connection logs provided. IP addresses beginning with “17.” are assigned to Apple and their occurrence in these logs is reflective of activity on Apple internal servers and not an indication of any user connections. IP addresses beginning with “10.” in relation to Find My iPhone (“FMIP”) logs are also reflective of activity on Apple internal servers and not an indication of any user connections.

All evidence preservation pursuant to the herein request response is the responsibility of the requesting law enforcement agency.

Sincerely,

Ian
