By accessing or using the Beacon Boxx mobile application (โAppโ) and related services (collectively, the โServicesโ), you agree to be bound by these Terms & Conditions, as well as any additional terms and conditions that apply to specific features or services provided by Beacon Boxx.

We collect and use your data for the following purposes:
To provide, personalize, and improve the functionality of the App and Services.
To track and analyze your health data, location data, and device data for the purpose of enhancing your user experience.
To send you notifications, updates, and other communications related to your account and the Services.
To comply with legal obligations and enforce our rights under this Agreement.
4.3 User Consent
4.4 Third-Party Sharing
4.5 Data Retention
We will retain your personal data only for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes outlined in this Agreement and our Privacy Policy, or as required by law. You can delete all data from the Beacon Boxx application server by deleting your account and selecting, โDelete All User Data from Beacon Boxxโ. We will only retain your health and profile data until it is no longer reasonably usable; and/or, you delete your account using the in-app delete account feature.
4.6 Data Security
We implement reasonable security measures to protect your data from unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration, and destruction. However, no method of transmission or storage is 100% secure, and we cannot guarantee the absolute security of your data. Your data is secured on the Amazon Web Services (AWS) Cloud. And, as such, that data is compliant with US regulations for data storage and retention.
5. User Responsibilities
You agree to:
Provide accurate, complete, and up-to-date information when using the App.
Maintain the confidentiality of your account and login credentials.
Not use the App for any illegal, unauthorized, or harmful purpose.
Comply with all applicable laws and regulations when using the App.
Keep your wearable Device and paired phone charged, powered on, updated, and within Bluetooth range of each other, with Bluetooth, Wi-Fi or cellular data, location services, and App notifications enabled.
Maintain an active cellular data plan for your wearable Device, as described in Section 8.2.
Treat Beacon Boxx employees, contractors, and support staff with basic respect in all communications.
6. Prohibited Uses
You may not:
Use the App for any unlawful or fraudulent activities.
Distribute or share any content that is harmful, offensive, defamatory, or violates the rights of others.
Attempt to interfere with or disrupt the operation of the App, including through viruses, malware, or other harmful means.
Reverse engineer, decompile, or disassemble the App or any of its components.
Use to diagnose or predict medical conditions that could result in immediate death.
Harass, threaten, intimidate, or abuse Beacon Boxx employees, contractors, or support staff, including through repeated communications intended to harass rather than resolve an issue.
7. Medical Disclaimer
7.1 Not a Substitute for Professional Medical Advice
7.2 Emergency Situations
7.3 Limitation of Liability for Medical Emergencies
8. Reliance on Wearable Device
The performance and reliability of the App are heavily dependent on the proper use and functioning of the wearable device(s) (e.g., smartwatch, fitness tracker) connected to the App. You are responsible for ensuring that the wearable device is properly worn, calibrated, and functioning. Inaccurate or incomplete data may result from improper use of the device or technical issues with the wearable device.
8.1 How Alerts Are Transmitted
Emergency alerts generated by your wearable Device must be transmitted from the Device to Beacon Boxx servers before Beacon Boxx or its emergency monitoring partner can act on them. The Device sends alerts either directly over its own Wi-Fi or cellular connection, or over Bluetooth to your paired phone, which then relays the alert over its own data connection. Beacon Boxx does not manufacture, own, or control the Device, the phone, their operating systems, or the wireless networks they rely on.
8.2 Data Plan Requirement
You agree to maintain an active cellular data plan for your wearable Device so that alerts can be sent even when your paired phone is out of range, powered off, or disconnected. If your Device does not support cellular service, you acknowledge that alerts depend entirely on your Device staying connected to your paired phone or to a Wi-Fi network, and you accept the added risk this creates. Beacon Boxx is not responsible for the cost, coverage, or performance of any data plan.
8.3 User Error and Device Mismanagement
You acknowledge that an alert may never reach your phone or Beacon Boxx servers because of user error or Device mismanagement, including but not limited to: leaving your phone out of Bluetooth range or in another room; allowing the Device or phone to lose battery power; turning off Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, cellular data, location services, or notifications; force-closing or failing to update the App; not maintaining a data plan as required by Section 8.2; or wearing the Device improperly. Beacon Boxx cannot receive, detect, or act on an alert that never reaches its servers.
8.4 Assumption of Risk and Waiver
YOU UNDERSTAND AND EXPRESSLY ASSUME THE RISK THAT AN ALERT MAY NOT BE TRANSMITTED, RECEIVED, OR ACTED UPON DUE TO DEVICE MALFUNCTION, LOSS OF CONNECTIVITY, NETWORK OUTAGES, USER ERROR, OR DEVICE MISMANAGEMENT. TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, YOU WAIVE AND RELEASE ANY CLAIM AGAINST BEACON BOXX ARISING FROM AN ALERT THAT DID NOT REACH BEACON BOXX SERVERS FOR ANY OF THESE REASONS, INCLUDING CLAIMS ARISING IN WHOLE OR IN PART FROM BEACON BOXXโS OWN NEGLIGENCE.
8.5 Confirmation and Calling 911
When an alert is sent, the App will display its status where your Device supports it. If you do not see confirmation that your alert was received within one (1) minute, or if you are unsure whether help is coming, you agree to call 911 directly. The App is a supplement to, not a replacement for, calling 911 yourself.
9. Termination of Access
We may suspend or terminate your access to the App at our sole discretion, with or without notice, for any reason, including if you violate any provision of this Agreement.
Grounds for suspension or termination include harassment, threats, or abuse of Beacon Boxx employees, contractors, or support staff as described in Section 6. Because the Services include emergency alert features, we will make reasonable efforts to give you at least [seven (7)] daysโ written notice before terminating your account for conduct reasons, so you can arrange alternative emergency coverage, except where the conduct involves threats of violence or unlawful activity.
Nothing in these Terms restricts your right to post honest reviews, ratings, or feedback about Beacon Boxx on the App Store or any other platform, and we will not suspend or terminate your account, or penalize you in any way, because of such a review.
10. Disclaimers and Limitation of Liability
10.1 Disclaimer of Warranties
The App and Services are provided โas isโ and โas available,โ without any warranties of any kind, express or implied. We do not warrant that the App will be error-free, uninterrupted, or meet your specific requirements.
10.2 Limitation of Liability
11. Indemnification
12. Changes to Terms & Conditions
Beacon Boxx reserves the right to modify or update these Terms & Conditions at any time. We will provide notice of any material changes by updating the โEffective Dateโ at the top of this document. Your continued use of the App after such changes constitutes your acceptance of the revised Terms & Conditions.
13. Governing Law and Dispute Resolution
This Agreement is governed by the laws of the State of Delaware, without regard to its conflict of law principles. Any dispute arising out of or related to these Terms & Conditions shall be resolved through binding arbitration in accordance with the rules of the American Arbitration Association. The arbitration shall take place in Montgomery County, Texas, unless both parties agree otherwise or the arbitrator permits the proceeding to be conducted remotely. Any court action permitted under this Agreement, including an action to enforce an arbitration award, shall be brought exclusively in the state or federal courts located in Montgomery County, Texas.
14. Miscellaneous
Entire Agreement: These Terms & Conditions constitute the entire agreement between you and Beacon Boxx with respect to the App and Services.
Severability: If any provision of this Agreement is found to be invalid or unenforceable, the remaining provisions will remain in full force and effect.
