BeSafe SOS — Terms of Use (EULA)

Last Updated: April 2026

IMPORTANT: PLEASE READ THIS ENTIRE DOCUMENT CAREFULLY. BY INSTALLING, ACCESSING, OR USING THE BESAFE SOS APPLICATION, YOU ACKNOWLEDGE THAT YOU HAVE READ, UNDERSTOOD, AND VOLUNTARILY AGREE TO BE BOUND BY EVERY PROVISION CONTAINED HEREIN. IF YOU DO NOT AGREE, YOU MUST DISCONTINUE INSTALLATION AND DELETE THE APPLICATION IMMEDIATELY.

A Message from the Creators: Our Good Faith Commitment

BeSafe SOS was conceptualized and built by its Owners and Developers as a philanthropic, community-minded project. Our mission is to assist individuals by providing a single, organized interface for safety information that is otherwise scattered across the internet. This application is offered in Good Faith as a humanitarian tool. Because we provide this platform as a bridge to third-party data—often at no cost to you—the Owners and Developers cannot assume the legal or financial risks associated with the accuracy of that data. Your agreement to these terms is the "handshake" that allows us to keep this project available to the public.

1. The Nature of the Service: An "Information Bridge"

BeSafe SOS (the "Platform") is a technological tool designed solely for the aggregation, standardization, and organization of information that is already publicly available.

• Aggregation Only: The Owners and Developers do not create, author, verify, or curate the data displayed. The Platform acts as a "passive conduit" or "umbrella," programmatically fetching data from external sources (e.g., OpenStreetMap, government RSS feeds, and public alert systems).
• No Control: We do not have the ability to control the quality, truth, or timeliness of the information fetched. We simply display it in a standardized format to help you access it more easily.

2. Comprehensive Disclaimer of Information Accuracy

By using this Platform, you acknowledge that the information provided is fetched from third parties and is subject to error. The Owners and Developers specifically disclaim any responsibility for:

• Mapping Inaccuracies: The Platform utilizes open-license maps. These maps may contain errors in street names, topography, route accessibility, or the marking of "safe zones."
• Incorrect Emergency Contacts: Phone numbers, addresses, and contact details for emergency services are pulled from public directories. These may be outdated, disconnected, or route to incorrect jurisdictions.
• Wrong Guidance: Any safety instructions, evacuation routes, or recommendations fetched by the Platform are the property of third-party sources. The Owners and Developers do not endorse or verify these "recommendations."
• Outdated Information: Alerts and data may be delayed or fail to update, meaning the information you see may no longer be relevant to the current situation.

3. Technological Limitations and "Broken Feeds"

Technology is inherently imperfect. You agree that the Owners and Developers are not liable for failures in the app's performance, including:

• Broken Feeds: If a third-party API, website, or data feed changes or goes offline, parts of the application may break or show blank/incorrect information.
• Server Outages: We do not guarantee that the app will be functional during natural disasters, network congestion, or power outages—the very times you may need it most.
• Data Corruption: Technical glitches may cause information to be displayed incorrectly or lead to "wrong guidance."

3A. AI-Powered Offline Assistant Disclaimer

The Platform includes an offline AI assistant (the "AI Assistant"), a generative artificial intelligence feature that produces responses based on machine-learning models bundled with or accessed by the application. You expressly acknowledge and agree that:

• AS-IS Nature: The AI Assistant is provided strictly "AS IS" and "AS AVAILABLE," without warranties of any kind.
• Hallucinations and Errors: Generative AI models can and do produce output that is inaccurate, incomplete, outdated, misleading, fabricated, biased, or otherwise wrong.
• No Verification: The Owners and Developers do not pre-screen, monitor, validate, fact-check, or guarantee the truthfulness of any AI-generated content.
• Not Professional Advice: AI Assistant responses are for general informational purposes only and do not constitute medical, legal, psychological, financial, safety, survival, or emergency advice.
• Not an Emergency Service: The AI Assistant is NOT a substitute for emergency services (911, 112, 999, or any local equivalent).

4. No Professional Advice or Emergency Guarantee

Any statement that may be posted on BeSafe SOS is for informational purposes only and is not intended to replace or substitute for any professional financial, medical, legal, or other advice.

• Not an Emergency Service: This app is NOT a replacement for official emergency services (such as 911, 112, or 999). In any life-threatening situation, your first action must always be to contact local authorities directly.
• No Fiduciary Duty: The Owners and Developers are not your safety advisors, medical professionals, or emergency responders.

5. License and License Restrictions
