physically located at any given time (the “Location Based Services”). Location
Based Services may work even if you are not in communication with the
Monitoring Center. The accuracy of the Location Based Services is limited, and
the Company, the Operators, the Monitoring Center, the Responders, or others
may not be able to identify your location or the location of the Equipment
precisely or at all. You authorize the Company to collect location-based
information.
We will only share your location-based information with the Operators, the
Monitoring Center, the Responders, any person or entity that acquires the
Company and/or the Company’s interest in and to the Monitoring Services, or
any other person or entity you specifically designate and only for the purpose
of providing and improving the Monitoring Services.

planning purposes only and is not intended to be relied upon in situations
where precise location information is needed or where erroneous, inaccurate,
time delayed, or incomplete
location or map data may lead to death, personal injury, or property or
environmental damage. You agree that location-based info. may vary from actual
location(s), road, or terrain conditions due to factors that can affect the
accuracy of the map data, such as but not limited to, weather, road, and
traffic conditions, geopolitical events, and condition or status of your
cellular phone or cellular services. We do not guarantee accuracy or
completeness of any location-based information.
