FACILITeSPACE Terms of Use
The following terms of use will apply if you have subscribed to the IoT Service:
Purpose: Your use of the IoT Service may require access to eSPACE. Cool Solutions only provides the IoT Service
as an integration tool for eSPACE.
System Requirements: The IoT Service will not be accessible without an eSPACE Service subscription and the
hardware, software, and any other system elements that may be specified by Cool Solutions. 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 IoT Service may not work as described when the requirements and compatibility have not been
met. If you modify, substitute, move, or otherwise change any of the required system elements, it is your sole duty
and responsibility to be sure they are compatible and properly configured to work with the eSPACE Service.
Service Levels: IoT Service may be inaccessible due to scheduled and unscheduled reasons, including security
reasons, maintenance updates, power outages, system failures, extended downtime and other interruptions. During
such periods, you may be unable to access or use all of, or a portion of, the IoT Service. In the event of an
outage or interruptions that Cool Solutions determines may cause risk to the IoT Service, Cool Solutions may
determine in its sole discretion to suspend the IoT Service. You acknowledge and agree that your ability to access
the IoT Service, your account, billing account, and content may be suspended, delayed or interrupted for any
reason, including scheduled and unscheduled maintenance, power outages, system failures and other interruptions.
You agree you will not be entitled to any refund or rebate for such suspensions. Cool Solutions does not offer any
specifically uptime guarantee. Relatedly, lack of payment to Cool Solutions when due may result in suspension of
the IoT Service.
Support: Cool Solutions will provide customer support for issues related to and caused by or due to the IoT
Service. If Cool Solutions later determines that such issues were unrelated or not caused by or due to the IoT
Service, Cool Solutions will bill you $175 per hour for a minimum of one hour for support provided.
Security: Cool Solutions uses a variety of security technologies and procedures to help protect unauthorized
access to or use of the IoT Service; however, we cannot guarantee that we will be successful at doing so.
Accordingly, you acknowledge that you bear sole responsibility for adequate security, protection and backup of
your data, content, software programs or services you use in connection with your access to or use of the IoT
Service. Cool Solutions strongly encourages you, where available and appropriate, to take measures to protect your
data, content, software applications or services.
Use: IF THE IOT SERVICE IS NOT PROPERLY CONFIGURED, OR IF THE IOT SERVICE OR ANY SENSORS ARE OUTSIDE THE
DETECTION RANGE OR HINDERED OR OBSTRUCTED BY WALLS, FURNITURE, PERSONAL PROPERTY OR OTHER THINGS, YOU MAY
EXPERIENCE FALSE ALERTS OR DETECTION FAILURES. It is your responsibility to test the IoT Service once configured
to be sure the IoT Service (and any related sensors, components and peripherals) are functioning and communicating
as intended and designed. The IoT Service may use various open or commonly available standards or means to
communicate and work with smart or connected devices that are also similarly used by other systems or services not
manufactured by Cool Solutions, including Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, and IP devices.
SMART, CONNECTED OR OTHER DEVICES AND RELATED SERVICES (“THIRD-PARTY PRODUCTS AND SERVICES”) THAT ARE NOT
DESIGNATED BY COOL SOLUTIONS AS COMPATIBLE WITH THE IOT SERVICE MAY NOT WORK, OR MAY HAVE LIMITED FEATURES OR
FUNCTIONALITY, EVEN IF DESIGNED, SPECIFIED OR MARKETED TO OPERATE USING THE SAME OR SIMILAR STANDARDS OR MEANS OF
COMMUNICATION. YOU AGREE ONLY TO USE THIRD-PARTY PRODUCTS AND SERVICES DESIGNATED BY COOL SOLUTIONS AS COMPATIBLE
WITH THE IOT SERVICE AND YOU SHALL BE RESPONSIBLE FOR PURCHASING ANY THIRD-PARTY PRODUCTS AND SERVICES COOL
SOLUTIONS DESIGNATES AS NECESSARY FOR THE IOT SERVICE.
FURTHER, YOU AGREE THAT COOL SOLUTIONS IS NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR, AND YOU HEREBY RELEASE AND HOLD COOL SOLUTIONS
HARMLESS FROM AND AGAINST, ALL LIABILITY AND DAMAGES, INJURIES OR LOSS OF LIFE ARISING FROM, RELATED TO, OR
CAUSED BY, ANY FAILURE OF THIRD-PARTY PRODUCTS AND SERVICES OR ANY THIRD-PARTY VENDOR SYSTEMS USED IN CONNECTION
