- SPECIFIC TERMS OF USE FOR THE SOLUTION
Compatible devices
You agree that you have read and understood the following technical aspects, regarding the functioning of the Solution. The Solution works solely with compatible devices, integrated into the software flow of the Application. The official list of compatible devices is kept up-to-date on the Site in the dedicated ‘Sensors’ webpage, or in other parts of the Solution, and we do not guarantee the accuracy of any other third-party websites or products advertising any list of Lithium compatible devices. You understand that not all devices are working with the Solution, as even the compatible devices require to be first enrolled into the Solution, prior to starting using the Solution. Compatible and enrolled devices can be found and purchased online or offline in the shops, websites, or online shops of our partners. The Partners are always showcased, mentioned, displayed on the Site or in other parts of the Solution. We cannot guarantee and cannot be held responsible for the accuracy of other third-party websites or products advertising their collaboration with us, or any Lithium-enrolled devices. Be aware of any scams and notify us through the available contact forms or email addresses in case you find inaccurate information regarding the Solution anywhere.
Technical limitations
Lithium-enrolled devices are using the Helium Network, so they can properly work only when they have batteries inserted, successfully added under a valid user account, placed in an area covered by the Helium network (https://helium.com), tuned on the correct and legally available regional LoRa frequency (e.g. EU868 or US915 – Frequency Plans by Country | The Things Network: https://www.thethingsnetwork.org/docs/lorawan/frequencies-by-country/), and which have successfully joined the LoRaWAN network through their joining process, described either in thei manufacturer’s user guide, or other guides, provided by Lithium. Moreover, moving or obstructing the devices might make it more difficult to transmit signals to the nearby LoRa gateways. This can also reduce Helium related token earnings for the Helium hotspots. Regardless, Lithium does not guarantee any Helium gateways are present in the proximity of your devices and neither makes any promises nor warranties that the Lithium-enrolled devices will properly send radio signals, as there may be a multitude of factors, beyond our control, influencing the transmission, such as distance to a gateway, the material of the walls or obstructing objects, the status of the Helium Network, Helium/Solana Blockchain, Lithium API, or any other third-party services/products used in the Solution. We do highly recommend doing thorough research using the official Helium Explorer (https://explorer.helium.com) and the Helium Mappers Project (https://mappers.helium.com) to better understand and evaluate if the Lithium-enrolled devices may be able to transmit signals properly.
Please, be aware and always monitor the status of the Lithium-enrolled devices in the Application, for any notifications or errors, as well as monitor the devices, for any visible physical damage. We cannot be held liable for any kind of damage produced by the misuse, improper installation, factory defects, or software/hardware errors of the compatible devices used together with the Solution, given we are providing software only products and services, not directly linked to the devices themselves nor to their manufacturers/vendors. If there is any defect with the devices, please address these issues to the shop you purchased the device from, or to the manufacturer.
Furthermore, the Solution, including the used Lithium-enrolled devices, may experience delays, due to a multitude of technical reasons and factors, and we are not responsible for any harm, or any kind of damage if the Solution does not function properly in a particular period of time.
Payment of service
You agree to pay all fees owed to us (or affiliates) in the manner specified on the Site or in other parts of the Solution, on official websites, announcements, or approved Partner websites and announcements, allowing our third-party payment processor partner, if any, to collect, store and process your data, to successfully complete the transactions between you and us, either manually, or automatically as part of a recurrent, subscription-based license. We reserve the right, in our sole discretion, and without prior notice, to stop, either manually or automatically, providing services or other components of the Solution to you, in case the required payments are not completed at a specific date, clearly communicated on the Site or in other parts of the Solution. We reserve the right to take appropriate legal action against anyone who uses the Solution, together with its payable benefits from the paid plans, without actually completing the transactions for the used benefits, by any means, either by leveraging an error in the software, or by intentionally finding ways to avoid paying the provided services.
Reselling or transferring of devices
As a limited exception to the prohibitions in Restrictions section, you may resell or transfer to a third party a device that you have validly purchased. Following such transfer, such a third party will be required to accept these Terms of Use in order to activate and use the device. You acknowledge you are not authorized to make any representations, warranties, or commitments on Lithium or its affiliates’ behalf in connection with any such transfer, and you agree to indemnify Lithium and its affiliates against any claims or losses in connection with any such representation, warranty or commitment. You further acknowledge that any offer or agreement with respect to such transfer is purely between you and the purchaser or transferee and that neither Lithium nor its affiliates have any control over, or liability, for the terms or performance of any such agreement, including the delivery of the device or the payment of any purchase price.
If a Lithium-enrolled device changes ownership, it must first be deleted from the previous owner’s account and re-added to the new owner’s account, while asserting the new current location if that is the case.
Benefits
During the normal operation and usage of the Solution, you may earn a variety of benefits (“Benefits”) (including but not limited to points, physical and digital rewards). By using the solution and agreeing to the present Terms of Use you acknowledge that:
any Benefit you may earn during your usage of the Solution is not guaranteed;
any Benefit you may earn, requires usually some sort of contribution from your side in exchange;
the Benefits you may earn, do not necessarily hold any intrinsic or extrinsic value, and may or may not be converted to other tangible or intangible assets, goods or monetary values;
the Benefits are distributed using automated software mechanisms and cannot be manually added or subtracted to your account by anyone, including any of our employees, partners, affiliates, engaged in providing any portion of the Solution to you;
the way the Benefits are being distributed, including the type, amount and distribution criterias can change without notice, in our sole discretion, and the current applying earning rules may be stated in a different document, or part of the Solution. You agree you are the only one responsible for reading, understanding and applying the rules, that may qualify you to earn any Benefit we might make available through our Solution, or our, or our partners other mechanisms, including but not limited to referral programs, content creation (Ambassador) programs, etc.
Patrons and hosts
If you are a Lithium Patron or you have knowingly purchased and activated a Lithium-enrolled device having the goal of placing it to a different place (a “Patron”), Lithium authorizes you to provide Lithium-enrolled devices that you have validly purchased and activated (“Patron Devices”) to other users (“Hosts”), provided you continue to comply with all requirements and terms applicable to the Patron program and Customer program. You acknowledge you are not authorized to make any representations, warranties, or commitments on Lithium or its affiliates’ behalf, and you agree to indemnify Lithium and its affiliates against any claims or losses in connection with any such representation, warranty, or commitment. Patrons are solely responsible for identifying Hosts, and as a Patron, you acknowledge that no Hosts may be available in any particular area. Patrons further acknowledge that Lithium does not provide any introductions, recommendations, or other services to Patrons to assist with identifying Hosts. For clarity, Patrons’ resale of Lithium-enrolled devices is addressed only under this Section, and not under the general resale provision in Section Permitted device transfers.
If you are a Host, you acknowledge that your Patron may earn some or all of the Helium tokens or any other tokens generated through the use of your Patron device, unless otherwise agreed with the Patron.
Patrons and Hosts acknowledge that any offers or agreements between them with respect to provision, receipt, or use of Products are purely between the applicable Patron and Host and that neither Lithium nor its affiliates have any control over, or liability, for the terms or performance of any such agreement, including the delivery of any Patron device or the payment of any fees, Helium tokens, or any other tokens to any Host. Neither Lithium nor its affiliates have any obligation to resolve any dispute between a Patron and a Host, and the Patron and Host party to any such dispute each agree to indemnify Lithium and its affiliates against any claims or losses in connection with any such dispute.
- FORCE MAJEURE
If Lithium is unable to perform any of its obligations under this Agreement because of severe weather, natural disasters, acts of God, riots, wars, theft, governmental action, acts of our suppliers, or other events beyond our reasonable control, then we are relieved from our performance of such obligations to the extent, and for the duration, that such performance is prevented by such events.
