Spare Backup Inc., provider of data backup and security software for smartphones, tablets and PCs, which is carrier and manufacturer agnostic, announced this week that its data backup service has been officially launched with Sony Electronics Inc., as part of their agreement referenced in Spare Backup's March 13, 2012 Form 8-K filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC).

Spare Backup software and cloud data protection service will now be included in SEI's bundled extended service offering to all purchasers of PCs, laptops and tablets. The bundled extended service plans will also include internet security, recovery discs, PC customization and orientation, photo book creation, and DVD conversion.

Spare Backup's software enables consumers and small to medium sized businesses to protect valuable computer and mobile data quickly, automatically and cost-effectively. Spare Backup software selects, secures and stores personal and business content on a continuous basis or according to the schedule of the user's choice. It also allows for integration of that content across various devices and provides enhanced security features to protect valuable data on any lost or stolen devices. Spare Backup software is totally automated cloud-based backup service that is distributed on a stand-alone or private label basis through major retail and warrantee service partners in North America and Europe.

Spare Backup will receive revenue for each customer who purchases the extended plan as well as additional monthly revenue for added storage capacity and service renewals. It is anticipated that mobile security and parental controls will also be incorporated into service offerings powered by Spare Backup in the near future as contemplated in the above referenced agreement.

Commenting on the launch, Cery Perle, CEO of Spare Backup, stated, "We have spent an extensive amount of time and effort to position our company for a series of product launches with a number of our distribution partners. In that time we have greatly enhanced the capability of our software to incorporate mobile security and parental controls with our data backup to create a truly integrated cloud-like platform for users of numerous devices. We anticipate this important launch as well as a number of additional mobile launches in North America and Europe will be a turning point for Spare Backup as we begin to reap financial rewards for our effort and rapidly grow our revenue base."
