Once your consent is given for a particular Third-Party Product and Service, you agree that Tank Utility may exchange information and control data regarding you and your products, including your personal information, in order to enable the interface that you have authorized. Once this information is shared with the Third-Party Product or Service, its use will be governed by the third party’s privacy policy and not by Tank Utility’s privacy documentation. You acknowledge and agree that Tank Utility makes no representation or warranty about the safety of any Third-Party Products or Services. Accordingly, Tank Utility is not responsible for your use of any Third-Party Product or Service, or any personal injury, death, property damage (including, without limitation, to your home), or other harm or losses arising from or relating to your use of any Third-Party Products or Services.

  1. Agreed Usage and Limitations of Tank Utility Services

(a) Intended Use of Tank Utility Services. The Services are intended to be accessed and used for non-time-critical information and control of Tank Utility products. While we aim for the Services to be highly reliable and available, they are not intended to be reliable or available 100% of the time. The Services are subject to sporadic interruptions and failures for a variety of reasons beyond Tank Utility’s control, including Wi-Fi intermittency, service provider uptime, mobile notifications and operators, among others. You acknowledge these limitations and agree that Tank Utility is not responsible for any damages allegedly caused by the failure or delay of the Services to reflect current status or notifications.

(b) No Life Safety or Critical Uses of the Services. You acknowledge and agree that the Products and Services, whether standing alone or when interfaced with third-party products or services, are not certified for emergency response. Tank Utility makes no warranty or representation that use of the Products or Services with any third-party product or service will affect or increase any level of safety. YOU UNDERSTAND THAT THE PRODUCTS AND SERVICES, WHETHER STANDING ALONE OR INTERFACED WITH THIRD-PARTY PRODUCTS OR SERVICES, ARE NOT A THIRD-PARTY MONITORED EMERGENCY NOTIFICATION SYSTEM – TANK UTILITYWILL NOT DISPATCH EMERGENCY AUTHORITIES TO YOUR HOME IN THE EVENT OF AN EMERGENCY. In addition, the Tank Utility Customer Care and Support contacts cannot be considered a lifesaving solution for people at risk in the home, and they are no substitute for emergency services. All life-threatening and emergency events should be directed to the appropriate response services.

(c) Reliability of Notifications. You acknowledge that the Services, including remote access and mobile notifications, are not intended to be 100% reliable and 100% available. We cannot, and do not guarantee that you will receive notifications in any given time, or at all. YOU AGREE THAT YOU WILL NOT RELY ON THE SERVICES FOR ANY LIFE SAFETY OR CRITICAL PURPOSES. MOBILE NOTIFICATIONS REGARDING THE STATUS AND ALARMS ON YOUR TANK UTILITY PRODUCTS ARE PROVIDED FOR INFORMATIONAL PURPOSES ONLY – THEY ARE NOT A SUBSTITUTE FOR A THIRD-PARTY, MONITORED EMERGENCY NOTIFICATION SYSTEM. The information provided by Tank Utility on what to do in an emergency is based on authoritative safety sources, but there is no way for Tank Utility to provide specific information relating to a situation in your home or elsewhere. You acknowledge that it is your responsibility to educate yourself on how to respond to an emergency and to respond according to the specifics of your situation.

(d) Temporary Suspension. The Services may be suspended temporarily, without notice, for security reasons, systems failure, maintenance and repair, or other circumstances. You agree that you will not be entitled to any refund or rebate for such suspensions. Tank Utility does not offer any specific uptime guarantee for the Services.

The Services will not be accessible without: (i) a working Wi-Fi network in your home that is positioned to communicate reliably with the Products; (ii) an Account; (iii) mobile clients, such as a supported phone or tablet (required from some functionality); (iv) always-on broadband Internet access in your home; and (v) other systems elements that may be specified by Tank Utility. It is your responsibility to ensure that you have all required system elements and that they are compatible and properly configured. You acknowledge that the Services may not work as described when the requirements and compatibility have not been met.

(f) Energy Savings and other Benefits. Unless explicitly promising a “guarantee”, Tank Utility does not guarantee or promise any specific level of energy savings or other monetary benefit from the use of the Products or Services or any feature of them. Actual energy savings and monetary benefits vary with factors beyond Tank Utility’s control or knowledge. From time to time, Tank Utility may use the Services to provide you with information that is unique to you and your energy usage, and suggests an opportunity to save money on energy bills if you adopt suggestions or features of the Product or Services. We do this to highlight an opportunity based on our analysis and information about you and your household. You acknowledge that these promotions are not a guarantee of actual savings, and you agree not to seek monetary or other remedies from Tank Utility if your savings differ.

(g) The Services provide you with information (“Product Information”) regarding the Products in your home and their connection with other products and services. All Product Information is provided “as is” and “as available”. We cannot guarantee that it is correct or up to date. In cases where it is critical, accessing Product Information through the Services is not a substitute for direct access of the information in the home.

(h) All information publicly posted or privately transmitted through the Services is the sole responsibility of the person from which such Content originated, and Tank Utility will not be liable for any errors or omissions in any Content. Tank Utility cannot guarantee the identity of any other users with whom you may interact in the course of using the Services. In addition, we cannot guarantee the authenticity of any data that users or merchants may provide about themselves. You acknowledge that all Content accessed by you using the Services is at your own risk, and you will be solely responsible for any damage or loss to any party resulting therefrom.

  1. Limitations of Tank Utility Services Due to Third Parties.

You acknowledge and agree that: (i) the use and availability of the Services is dependent on third-party product vendors and service providers, (ii) these third-party products and services may not operate in a reliable manner 100% of the time and they may impact the way that the Tank Utility Services operate, and (iii) Tank Utility is not responsible for damages and losses due to the operation of these third-party products and services.

(e) App Stores. You acknowledge and agree that the availability of the Mobile Apps is dependent on the third-party websites from which you download the Mobile Apps, e.g. the App Store from Apple or the Android app market from Google (each an “App Store”). You acknowledge that these Terms are between you and Tank Utility and not with an App Store. Each App Store may have its own terms and conditions to which you must agree before downloading Mobile Apps from it. You agree to comply with, and your license to use the Mobile Apps is conditioned upon your compliance with such App Store terms and conditions. To the extent that such other terms and conditions from such App Store are less restrictive than, or otherwise conflict with the terms and conditions of these Terms, the more restrictive or conflicting terms and conditions in these Terms apply.

(f) Third-Party Website Links and Referrals. The Sites may contain links to other websites operated by third parties (“Third-Party Sites”) and referrals to third-party vendors (“Referred Vendors”). Such Third-Party Sites and Referred Vendors are not under our control. Tank Utility provides these links and referrals only as a convenience and does not review, approve, monitor, endorse, warrant or make any representations with respect to such Third-Party Sites or Referred Vendors. Your use of these Third-Party Sites is at your own risk.

You may request arbitration if your claim or dispute cannot be resolved within 60 days after presenting the claim or dispute to Tank Utility. Tank Utility may request arbitration against you at any time after it has notified you of a claim or dispute, in accordance with clause 11(f) (Notifications). The arbitration of any dispute or claim shall be conducted in accordance with the then-current and applicable rules of the American Arbitration Association, as modified by this agreement. The place of any arbitration will be San Francisco, California, USA, and will be conducted in the English language. Claims will be heard by a single arbitrator. The arbitrator may not award relief in excess of, or contrary to what this agreement provides, order consolidation or arbitration on a class-wide or representative basis, award punitive or consequential damages, or any other damages aside from the prevailing party’s actual damages, or order injunctive or declaratory relief, except that the arbitrator may award on an individual basis damages required by statute and may order injunctive or declaratory relief pursuant to an applicable consumer protection statute. Any arbitration shall be confidential, and neither you, nor Tank Utility, nor the arbitrator may disclose the existence, content or results of any arbitration except as may be required by law or for purposes of enforcement or appeal of the arbitration award. Judgment on any arbitration award may be entered in any court having proper jurisdiction. If any portion of this arbitration clause is determined by a court to be inapplicable or invalid, then the remainder shall still be given full force and effect.

(d) No Class Actions. There shall be no right or authority for any claims subject to this arbitration clause to be arbitrated on a class-action or consolidated basis, or on bases involving claims brought in a purported representative capacity on behalf of the general public (including, but not limited to as a private attorney general).

(e) Fees and Expenses. All administrative fees and expenses of arbitration will be divided equally between you and Tank Utility. Each party will bear the expense of its own counsel, experts, witnesses, and preparation and presentation of evidence at the arbitration hearing.

(f) YOU MUST CONTACT TANK UTILITY WITHIN ONE (1) YEAR OF THE DATE OF THE OCCURRENCE OF THE EVENT OR FACTS GIVING RISE TO A DISPUTE, OR YOU WAIVE THE RIGHT TO PURSUE ANY CLAIM BASED UPON SUCH EVENT, FACTS OR DISPUTE.

This arbitration clause shall survive termination of these Terms.

(b) Tank Utility’s designated Copyright Agent to receive notifications of claimed infringement is Nicholas Mashburn. For clarity, only DMCA notices should go to the Copyright Agent; any other feedback, comments, requests for technical support, and other communications should be directed to Tank Utility customer service through our website. You acknowledge that if you fail to comply with all the requirements of this Section 12(b), your DMCA notice may not be valid.

(c) Counter-Notice. If you believe that the Content that was removed (or to which access was disabled) is not infringing, or that you have the authorization from the copyright owner, the copyright owner’s agent or pursuant to the law, to post and use the material in your Content, you may send a counter-notice containing the following information to the Copyright Agent: (i) Your physical or electronic signature; (ii) Identification of the Content that has been removed or to which access has been disabled, and the location at which the Content appeared before it was removed or disabled; (iii) A statement that you have a good-faith belief that the Content was removed or disabled as a result of mistake or misidentification of the Content; and (iv) Your name, address, telephone number and email address, a statement that you consent to the jurisdiction of the federal court in San Francisco, California, USA, and a statement that you will accept service of process from the person who provided notification of the alleged infringement.

(d) If a counter-notice is received by the Copyright Agent, Tank Utility may send a copy of the counter-notice to the original complainant informing that person that they may replace the removed Content or cease disabling it in 10 working days. Unless the copyright owner files an action seeking a court order against the Content provider, member or user, the removed Content may be replaced, or access to it restored, in 10 to 14 working days or more after receipt of the counter-notice, at Tank Utility’s sole discretion.

  1. General

(a) Changes to these Terms. Tank Utility reserves the right to make changes to these Terms. We will post notice of modifications to these Terms on this page. You should ensure that you have read and agree with our most recent Terms when you use the Services. Continued use of the Services following notice of such changes shall indicate your acknowledgment of such changes and agreement to be bound by the revised Terms.

(b) Governing Law. The courts in some countries will not apply California law to some types of dispute. If you reside in one of those countries, then where California law is excluded from applying, your country’s laws will apply to such disputes related to these terms. Otherwise, you agree that these Terms, and any claim, dispute, action, cause of action, issue or request for relief arising out of or relating to these Terms or your use of the Products and Services, shall be governed by the laws of the State of California without giving effect to any conflict of laws principles that may provide the application of the law of another jurisdiction. You agree to submit to the personal jurisdiction of the state and federal courts in, or for Santa Clara County, California, USA, for the purpose of litigating all such claims or disputes, unless such claim or dispute is required to be arbitrated as set forth in a section above.

(c) Protection of Confidentiality and Intellectual Property Rights. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Tank Utility may seek injunctive or other equitable relief to protect its confidential information and intellectual property rights, or to prevent loss of data or damage to its servers in any court of competent jurisdiction.

(d) Entire Agreement/Severability. These Terms constitute the entire agreement between you and Tank Utility regarding the use of the Services. Any failure by Tank Utility to exercise or enforce any right or provision of these Terms shall not operate as a waiver of such right or provision. The section titles in these Terms are for convenience only and have no legal or contractual effect. If any provision of these Terms is, for any reason, held to be invalid or unenforceable, the other provisions of these Terms will be unimpaired, and the invalid or unenforceable provision will be deemed modified so that it is valid and enforceable to the maximum extent permitted by law. Neither party is an agent or partner of the other party.

(e) Assignment. These Terms, and any associated rights or obligations, may not be assigned or otherwise transferred by you without Tank Utility’s prior written consent. These Terms may be assigned by Tank Utility without restriction. These Terms are binding upon any permitted assignee.
