This Agreement is an agreement between you and HOWL Inc.  You represent and warrant that you have the capacity to enter into this License Agreement relating to the Software and are of sufficient legal age in your jurisdiction or residence to use or access the Software.These terms give you specific legal rights, and you may also have other legal rights in addition, which vary from jurisdiction to jurisdiction.

USER GENERATED CONTENT
You are personally responsible for your use of the Product and Software, and while using the Product and Software you must conduct yourself in a lawful and respectful manner in accordance with our rules of conduct below.  We may temporarily or permanently ban users who violate these rules, or who abuse communications, support communications, or the community purpose of any message board areas, as determined by us and our developer partners, in our sole discretion.

Profanity, obscenities, or the use of **asterisks** or other “masking” characters to disguise such words, is not permitted.

You acknowledge that the Service is a passive conduit for user content and that: (i) neither we, nor our developer partners, pre-screen user content or communications or (ii) control, verify or pay for any user content or communications.  We do not endorse, and specifically disclaim any responsibility or liability for, any publicly posted content. In addition, as agent for our developer partners, we may terminate your access to any public forums at any time, without notice, for any reason whatsoever, and/or delete, move or edit content submitted publicly, in whole or in part. You may only upload, send, and receive messages and material that is related to the subject matter of the public forums, complies with Applicable Laws, and conforms to any additional terms of service posted in the public forums.

‍
USER GENERATED CONTENT SAFETY
You acknowledge that Howl takes lewd, abusive and obscene content seriously and has built robust business practices to address this issue. On the Howl platform there is no tolerance for objectionable content or abusive users. We use a service called WebPurify to screen obscene language and images, and those posts and content with objectionable content including defamatory, discriminatory, or mean-spirited content, including references or commentary about religion, race, sexual orientation, gender, national/ethnic origin, or other targeted groups, particularly to humiliate, intimidate, or harm a targeted individual or group are removed automatically. This is our method of filtering objectionable content.

We address all objectionable content within 24 hours. Additionally, users are able to report other users from within the app for any reason with a flagging mechanism, and we are able to ban a user from the system or certain features as needed. After a post has been flagged twice the content is immediately removed and placed in quarantine for Howl admin review.

Users also have the ability to mute other users. This is a mechanism for users to block abusive users.  As such, there isn't a way for users to continuously abuse, harm, harass or pressure one another.  If a user reports some other abusive behavior, our team will remove that questionable and abusive user within 24 hours.

PRODUCT LIMITATIONS
YOUR USE OF THE SOFTWARE AND THE PRODUCT IS AT YOUR OWN DISCRETION AND RISK. YOU ARE SOLELY RESPONSIBLE FOR (AND HOWL DISCLAIMS) ANY AND ALL LOSS, LIABILITY, OR DAMAGES ARISING OUT OF OR RESULTING FROM YOUR USE OF THE SOFTWARE OR THE PRODUCT, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, ANY LOSS, LIABILITY, OR DAMAGES TO YOUR PERSON, POSSESSIONS, PERSONAL PROPERTY (INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, THE PRODUCT, OTHER PRODUCTS, OR PERIPHERALS CONNECTED TO THE PRODUCT, COMPUTER, AND MOBILE DEVICE), DATA, HOME, APARTMENT, UNIT, DWELLING, STRUCTURE, OR RESIDENCE. Howl’s customer support contacts cannot be regarded as a lifesaving solution for people at risk in the home, and are not a suitable substitute for emergency services. All life-threatening and emergency events should be directed to 911 or the appropriate response services. The software app for the Product may allow you to alert emergency response services if you have subscribed to monitoring and are located in a supported area.

NOT A REPLACEMENT FOR 911
The Application and Response Services are not a replacement for 911 or any other public emergency Response Services. If you are in immediate danger, are suffering a medical emergency, or are the victim of a crime, call 911 and/or the appropriate authorities, and do not rely on the Application or the Response Services.

LIMITATIONS ON RESPONSE SERVICES BASED ON LOCATION
YOU MAY ONLY USE THE APPLICATION OR SERVICES WITHIN THE 50 U.S. STATES AND THE DISTRICT OF COLUMBIA (THE “TERRITORY”).

LOCATION AND DATA BASED RESPONSE SERVICES
The Application and Response Services rely on location-based Response Services to determine your location. To use the Response Services, you must permit us to use location-based Response Services on your Mobile Device. IF WE CANNOT USE THE LOCATION-BASED RESPONSE SERVICES ON YOUR MOBILE DEVICE, WE WILL NOT BE ABLE TO LOCATE YOU AND PROVIDE THE RESPONSE SERVICES. We will share your location in connection with the Response Services and with the Proper Authorities (as defined below) and any others to whom you permit us to provide your location through your selected privacy settings. IF YOU DO NOT USE LOCATION-BASED RESPONSE SERVICES (E.G., YOU TERMINATE, REFUSE, OR BLOCK THE LOCATION-BASED RESPONSE SERVICES), WE CANNOT PROVIDE YOU THE RESPONSE SERVICES, AND YOU SHOULD NOT USE THE APPLICATION. The Application also may rely on Push Notifications to notify you of an emergency. You MUST enable push notifications in the Application to be able to receive these notifications. The Application also depends on your Mobile Device having other hardware and activated software that allows the Application to access data necessary to provide certain features. Your Mobile Device must include this hardware and software and grant permission to Howl to access and utilize data generated therefrom in order for Howl to provide all such features. Please contact Howl if you have questions regarding what hardware and software is required.

WIRELESS NETWORK CONNECTIVITY AND COVERAGE
The Application and Response Services require adequate Wi-Fi and/or Cellular connectivity (e.g., 2G, 3G, 4G, LTE or other). When your Mobile Device does not have adequate connectivity, the Application and Response Services may not work. You MUST ensure that your Mobile Device has adequate wireless network connectivity and coverage.

LIMITATION OF LIABILITY
Nothing in this License Agreement (including anything specified in this "Limitation of Liability" provision) shall attempt to exclude or limit liability that cannot be excluded or limited under applicable law. TO THE FULL EXTENT ALLOWED BY LAW, IN ADDITION TO THE ABOVE WARRANTY DISCLAIMERS, HOWL DISCLAIMS AND EXCLUDES FOR ITSELF AND ITS SUPPLIERS ANY LIABILITY, WHETHER BASED IN CONTRACT, TORT (INCLUDING NEGLIGENCE AND STRICT LIABILITY), OR OTHERWISE, FOR INCIDENTAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, INDIRECT, SPECIAL, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES OF ANY KIND OR FOR LOSS OF REVENUE OR PROFITS, LOSS OF BUSINESS, LOSS OF INFORMATION OR DATA, OR OTHER LOSS ARISING OUT OF OR IN CONNECTION WITH THE SALE, INSTALLATION, MAINTENANCE, USE, PERFORMANCE, FAILURE, OR INTERRUPTION OF THE SOFTWARE OR PRODUCT, EVEN IF HOWL OR ITS SUPPLIERS HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES AND LIMITS ITS LIABILITY TO REPLACEMENT, REPAIR, OR REFUND OF THE PURCHASE PRICE PAID, AT HOWL’S OPTION. THIS DISCLAIMER OF LIABILITY FOR DAMAGES WILL NOT BE AFFECTED IF ANY REMEDY PROVIDED HEREIN FAILS ITS ESSENTIAL PURPOSE.

DISCLAIMER
In addition to this License Agreement, you may also have other legal rights that vary from jurisdiction to jurisdiction. Some countries, states, or provinces do not allow the exclusion or limitation of implied warranties or the limitation of incidental or consequential damages for certain products supplied to consumers or the limitation of liability for personal injury, so the above limitations and exclusions may be limited in their application to you. When the implied warranties are not allowed to be excluded in their entirety, they will be limited to the extent and duration of the applicable written warranty. Your specific legal rights may vary depending on local law.

SEVERABILITY
In the event any provision of this License Agreement is found to be invalid, illegal, or unenforceable, the validity, legality, and enforceability of any of the remaining provisions shall not in any way be affected or impaired, and a valid, legal, and enforceable provision of similar intent and economic impact shall be substituted therefor.

NOTICES
Howl may send notices to you via email or to a mailing address. Notices will be sent to the address that you registered with Howl.

WAIVERS
All waivers by HOWL will be effective only if in writing. Any waiver or failure by Howl to enforce any provision of this License Agreement on one occasion will not be deemed a waiver of any other provision or of such provision on any other occasion.
