Terms of service & end user license agreement
These Terms of Service and End User License Agreement (together, the "Terms") are a binding agreement between you and Beepr Technologies, LLC ("Beepr," "we," "us") governing your use of the Beepr mobile application (the "App") and getbeepr.com (together, the "Service"). By downloading, installing, or using the App, you agree to these Terms. If you do not agree, do not use the Service.
1. What the Service is (and is not)
The App provides audio and haptic alerts as you approach locations where, according to our database, automated traffic-enforcement devices (such as red-light cameras and school-zone speed cameras, "Enforcement Devices") are or have been deployed. The Service is provided for general informational and awareness purposes only. It is not:
- a guarantee that you will be alerted to any or all Enforcement Devices;
- a substitute for your own attention, judgment, and observation of roads, signs, and signals;
- an invitation, license, or encouragement to exceed speed limits or violate any traffic law;
- legal advice, or a means of evading law enforcement; or
- affiliated with, endorsed by, or connected to any government agency or camera operator.
2. No guarantee of operation
We do not guarantee that the App will operate, or operate correctly, every time or at any particular time. The App depends on factors outside our control, including GPS signal quality and drift, your device's hardware and battery state, operating-system background-execution and location policies (which can suspend or terminate background apps at any time), audio routing to vehicle systems, device settings and permissions, and interference from other software. The App may fail to launch, fail to monitor, fail to alert, alert late, or alert incorrectly. You must drive at all times as if the App did not exist.
3. Camera database — accuracy and currency
We make reasonable efforts to keep our database of existing and newly deployed Enforcement Devices — including their locations, enforced directions, and posted enforcement schedules — up to date. However, because of the rapidly evolving nature of automated-enforcement programs — devices are added, relocated, suspended, reactivated, and removed, and enforcement schedules change, often without public notice — we cannot and do not ensure that all Enforcement Devices, or any particular Enforcement Device, are reflected accurately or at all in our database at any given time. The database may be incomplete, outdated, or contain errors, including for reasons unrelated to our efforts.
4. Alerts — false positives and false negatives
We do not warrant that any alert is a "true" alert. The App may produce false positives — alerts where no active Enforcement Device exists — triggered for any reason, including database errors, device relocations or deactivations, GPS inaccuracy or drift, heading estimation at low speed, proximity to parallel roads, or software behavior. The App may equally produce false negatives — no alert where an active Enforcement Device exists. Alert timing, audibility, and delivery are not guaranteed. Alerts are informational nudges only, and no action or inaction by the App modifies your obligations under Section 5.
5. Driver Responsibility Statement
You acknowledge and agree that every driver is ultimately responsible for their own safety and the safe operation of their vehicle, and for adhering to all applicable rules and regulations, including all traffic laws, posted and statutory speed limits, school-zone restrictions, traffic signals and signs, and hands-free/distracted-driving laws, in every jurisdiction in which they drive. You further agree that you will:
- configure the App only while parked, and never interact with your device while driving;
- not rely on the presence or absence of an alert in making any driving decision;
- obey all speed limits and traffic-control devices at all times, alert or no alert; and
- comply with all laws applicable to the possession and use of camera-alert applications in your jurisdiction. You are solely responsible for confirming such use is lawful where you drive.
6. License and restrictions
Subject to these Terms, we grant you a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable, non-sublicensable, revocable license to install and use the App for personal, non-commercial purposes on devices you own or control, as permitted by the app-store rules of Apple Inc. ("Apple") or Google LLC ("Google"). You may not: copy, modify, or create derivative works of the App or its database; reverse engineer, decompile, or disassemble the App except as permitted by law; extract, scrape, resell, or redistribute the camera database; use the Service in any unlawful manner; or remove proprietary notices. The App and database are licensed, not sold; we and our licensors retain all rights not expressly granted.
6a. User contributions and community reports
The App lets you submit camera reports and related information — for example a new camera's location, a correction to an existing record, an enforcement schedule, a photo of a posted sign, or free-text notes (collectively, "Contributions"). By submitting a Contribution you agree that:
- Ownership. All Contributions, and all data and works derived from them, become the sole and exclusive property of Beepr Technologies, LLC upon submission, and you hereby assign to Beepr Technologies, LLC all right, title, and interest in them. To the extent such assignment is ineffective in any jurisdiction, you grant us a perpetual, irrevocable, worldwide, royalty-free, sublicensable, and transferable license to use, reproduce, modify, adapt, publish, distribute, and create derivative works from your Contributions for any purpose.
- No compensation. Contributions are voluntary and made without expectation of payment. Beepr may, in its sole and absolute discretion, pay bounties or rewards to contributors; any such program is discretionary, creates no entitlement or course of dealing, and may be changed, withheld, or ended at any time without notice.
- Accuracy. You will only submit information you believe in good faith to be accurate, based on your own observation. Submitting false, misleading, or spam reports is a violation of these Terms.
- Our discretion. We may review, verify, corroborate, edit, publish, decline, or discard any Contribution, in whole or in part, for any reason. Submitting a Contribution does not guarantee it will appear in the database.
6b. Database ownership; no scraping or extraction
The camera database and all other data available through the Service, including data derived from Contributions, are and remain the sole property of Beepr Technologies, LLC. Except for the personal, non-commercial use expressly licensed in Section 6, you may not scrape, harvest, crawl, copy, distill, extract, train machine-learning models on, or otherwise reproduce or redistribute the database or any portion of it, by any means, without the express prior written consent of Beepr Technologies, LLC. You agree that any data set, product, or other work derived in violation of this Section becomes, upon creation, the sole and exclusive property of Beepr Technologies, LLC, without compensation to you, and you hereby assign all right, title, and interest in any such derivative work to Beepr Technologies, LLC. This remedy is in addition to, not in place of, any other remedy available to us at law or in equity.
6c. Suspension and bans
Beepr Technologies, LLC reserves the right to suspend, limit, or permanently ban any user, device, or contributor from the Service or any part of it (including the reporting and contribution features), at its sole discretion, with or without notice, and with or without cause — including for submitting false or abusive reports, attempting to extract the database, or any violation of these Terms. We may decline to process or may silently discard reports from suspended or banned sources.
7. Purchases
If the App offers paid features, prices are shown before purchase and transactions are processed by Apple or Google under their terms. Except where required by law or by Apple/Google policy, purchases are final and refunds are handled exclusively through the store you purchased from.
7a. Beepr Ticket Check ("Ticket Scan") — information, not legal advice
Where available, Ticket Check (marketed in some materials as "Ticket Scan") lets you photograph an automated-enforcement notice or citation so Beepr can extract its details and compare them with available public and other authoritative sources. Ticket Check reports factual observations only: details that match published records, details that differ, details Beepr could not independently verify, and a checklist of facts you may be able to confirm yourself. The initial scan and factual report are currently offered at no charge, subject to fair-use limits and the jurisdiction availability shown in the App (at launch, Miami-Dade County, Florida only). Paid upgrades shown in the App add an extended verification checklist and a place to record your checklist answers and store supporting evidence (a "Case File"). Anything you add to a checklist or Case File is recorded as provided by you and is not independently verified by Beepr.
BEEPR IS NOT A LAW FIRM AND TICKET CHECK IS NOT LEGAL ADVICE, A LEGAL OPINION, OR A PREDICTION OF ANY OUTCOME. Beepr does not determine whether a citation is valid, whether you have a legal defense, or what action you should take — including whether to pay a notice, contest it, or wait — and no attorney-client relationship is created by using Ticket Check. Extraction and comparison are automated and depend on the quality of your photo and of available sources; you are responsible for reviewing and correcting the extracted details, and for any deadlines on your notice or citation regardless of anything Ticket Check reports. Free scans, included Ticket Checks (where offered with a subscription), and one-time Ticket Check purchases are subject to the fair-use limits, allowance, eligibility, and jurisdiction availability shown in the App, each of which may change.
Reminders are a convenience, not deadline tracking you can rely on. If you tell the App what you plan to do about a notice, or scan a follow-up document (such as a uniform traffic citation or a court hearing notice), the App can schedule reminder notifications on your device about dates it extracted — for example a payment window ending, a notice converting to a citation, or an upcoming hearing — and can link you to the issuing authority's website to check status. Extracted dates may be wrong or incomplete, notifications may fail or be disabled, and statutory timelines may change; the issuing authority's own records are the only authoritative source. You remain solely responsible for every deadline, response, payment, and court appearance connected to your notice or citation, whether or not the App reminds you.
Paying through the in-app browser. If you choose to pay a notice or citation through a website opened in the App's built-in browser, that payment is a transaction directly between you and the issuing authority (or its payment vendor). Beepr is not a party to the transaction, does not process it, never sees your payment details, and makes no representation about the authority's website, records, or processing. The authority's or vendor's own terms and privacy practices govern that site. While you use the built-in browser, the App records the pages you visit and the outcomes it can infer from them — but never what you type — as described in the Privacy policy.
7b. Attorney Connection Services
Where available, Beepr can help you connect with an independently practicing attorney who handles matters like yours in your jurisdiction ("Attorney Connection Services"). Beepr provides technology, factual analysis, data organization, and connection infrastructure only. Participating attorneys are independent professionals — they are not Beepr employees or agents, and Beepr does not control, direct, or guarantee their professional judgment, availability, responsiveness, or acceptance of any matter.
Requesting an attorney connection does not itself create an attorney-client relationship. Any attorney-client relationship is established directly between you and the attorney, subject to the attorney's own review (including any conflict check), requirements, and acceptance of your matter. Your Ticket Check information is shared with a participating attorney only after you expressly confirm what will be shared, except as separately provided under the Beepr Protect terms for covered matters. Beepr does not guarantee that any attorney will accept your matter or achieve any particular result, and matching is based on objective criteria (licensing, jurisdiction, matter type, availability) — a match is not an endorsement or a claim that any attorney is superior to others.
If you indicate in the App that you would like to speak with an attorney, you are asking Beepr to record your request and the contact details you provide and to use them to arrange a connection as described in this Section and in the Privacy policy. Expressing interest does not obligate you to retain anyone, and does not itself share your Ticket Check information with any attorney — that sharing remains subject to the express confirmation described above.
8. Disclaimer of warranties
TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, THE SERVICE, THE APP, THE CAMERA DATABASE, AND ALL ALERTS AND CONTENT ARE PROVIDED "AS IS" AND "AS AVAILABLE," WITH ALL FAULTS AND WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND. WE EXPRESSLY DISCLAIM ALL WARRANTIES, WHETHER EXPRESS, IMPLIED, STATUTORY, OR OTHERWISE, INCLUDING WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, TITLE, NON-INFRINGEMENT, ACCURACY, COMPLETENESS, TIMELINESS, RELIABILITY, AND UNINTERRUPTED OR ERROR-FREE OPERATION. WITHOUT LIMITING THE FOREGOING, WE DO NOT WARRANT THAT: (a) THE APP WILL DETECT OR ALERT TO ANY ENFORCEMENT DEVICE; (b) THE DATABASE IS OR WILL REMAIN ACCURATE, COMPLETE, OR CURRENT; (c) ALERTS WILL BE FREE OF FALSE POSITIVES OR FALSE NEGATIVES; OR (d) USE OF THE APP WILL PREVENT ANY TRAFFIC CITATION, FINE, OR OTHER CONSEQUENCE. NO ORAL OR WRITTEN INFORMATION FROM US CREATES ANY WARRANTY. SOME JURISDICTIONS DO NOT ALLOW CERTAIN WARRANTY EXCLUSIONS, SO SOME OF THE ABOVE MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU.
9. Limitation of liability
TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW: (a) IN NO EVENT WILL BEEPR, ITS OWNERS, OFFICERS, EMPLOYEES, CONTRACTORS, OR LICENSORS BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, EXEMPLARY, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, OR FOR ANY LOSS OF PROFITS, DATA, OR GOODWILL, ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO THE SERVICE, HOWEVER CAUSED AND UNDER ANY THEORY OF LIABILITY, EVEN IF ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES; (b) WITHOUT LIMITING THE FOREGOING, WE ARE NOT LIABLE FOR ANY TRAFFIC CITATIONS, FINES, PENALTIES, POINTS, INSURANCE CONSEQUENCES, ACCIDENTS, INJURIES, PROPERTY DAMAGE, OR DEATH ARISING FROM OR RELATED TO YOUR DRIVING, YOUR RELIANCE ON THE APP, OR THE APP'S OPERATION OR NON-OPERATION, NOR FOR THE ACTS, OMISSIONS, ADVICE, OR REPRESENTATION OF ANY INDEPENDENT ATTORNEY YOU CONNECT WITH THROUGH THE SERVICE; AND (c) BEEPR'S TOTAL AGGREGATE LIABILITY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO BEEPR, TICKET CHECK, THE APPLICATION, THE WEBSITE, ATTORNEY-MATCHING SERVICES, OR ANY RELATED SERVICE WILL NOT EXCEED THE TOTAL AMOUNTS YOU ACTUALLY PAID TO BEEPR TECHNOLOGIES, LLC. THE LIMITATIONS IN THIS SECTION ARE A FUNDAMENTAL BASIS OF THE BARGAIN AND APPLY EVEN IF ANY LIMITED REMEDY FAILS OF ITS ESSENTIAL PURPOSE. SOME JURISDICTIONS DO NOT ALLOW CERTAIN LIMITATIONS OR EXCLUSIONS, AND NOTHING IN THESE TERMS LIMITS ANY RIGHT THAT CANNOT LAWFULLY BE WAIVED OR LIMITED — IN THOSE CASES THE LIMITATIONS APPLY TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED.
10. Indemnification
You agree to indemnify, defend, and hold harmless Beepr and its owners, officers, employees, and contractors from and against any claims, damages, losses, liabilities, and expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees) arising out of or related to: (a) your use or misuse of the Service; (b) your violation of these Terms; (c) your violation of any law or regulation, including traffic laws; or (d) your operation of a vehicle.
11. Apple- and Google-specific terms
If you obtained the App from Apple's App Store, the following applies:
- These Terms are between you and Beepr only — not Apple. Apple is not responsible for the App or its content.
- Apple has no obligation to furnish maintenance or support for the App.
- If the App fails to conform to an applicable warranty, you may notify Apple and Apple will refund the purchase price (if any); to the maximum extent permitted by law, Apple has no other warranty obligation, and all other claims are governed by these Terms.
- Apple is not responsible for addressing any claims by you or a third party relating to the App, including product-liability claims, regulatory-compliance claims, and consumer-protection claims.
- In the event of a third-party claim that the App infringes intellectual-property rights, Beepr, not Apple, is responsible for its investigation, defense, and resolution to the extent required by these Terms.
- You represent that you are not located in a country subject to a U.S. government embargo and are not on any U.S. government restricted-party list.
- Apple and its subsidiaries are third-party beneficiaries of these Terms and may enforce them against you.
If you obtained the App from Google Play, these Terms are between you and Beepr only; Google is not a party to them and has no obligations regarding the App beyond those in the Google Play Terms of Service.
12. Changes to the Service and these Terms
We may modify, suspend, or discontinue the Service (or any part, including the database) at any time without liability. We may update these Terms at any time, with or without individual notice to you. The current version is always posted at getbeepr.com/terms with its effective date; your continued use of the Service after an update constitutes acceptance of the updated Terms. We endeavor to note material updates in the App's release notes as a courtesy, but posting the updated Terms at this page is the operative notice.
13. Termination
These Terms are effective until terminated. They terminate automatically if you fail to comply with them, and you may terminate them at any time by deleting the App. Sections 1–5, 6a–6c, and 8–15 survive termination.
14. Governing law and disputes — mediation; class-action waiver
These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of Florida, without regard to conflict-of-laws rules. To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, you agree that any dispute, claim, or controversy arising out of or relating to these Terms or the Service will be resolved exclusively through good-faith mediation administered in Miami-Dade County, Florida (or conducted remotely by agreement) before a mediator jointly selected by the parties, with each party bearing its own costs and sharing the mediator's fees equally, and you waive the right to pursue remedies in any other forum, except that (a) either party may bring an individual claim in small-claims court, and (b) either party may seek injunctive or equitable relief in the state or federal courts located in Miami-Dade County, Florida — to which venue and personal jurisdiction you consent — for infringement or misuse of intellectual property or the database (including Section 6b). To the extent permitted by law, each party waives any right to a jury trial, and all claims must be brought in the parties' individual capacity only — not as a plaintiff or class member in any purported class, collective, consolidated, or representative proceeding, and the mediator and any court may not consolidate more than one person's claims.
15. General; severability
Severability: if any provision of these Terms (or any part of a provision) is held invalid, illegal, or unenforceable in any jurisdiction, that provision will be reformed and construed to the minimum extent necessary to make it valid and enforceable while giving the greatest possible effect to the parties' original intent, and — whether or not it can be so reformed — the validity and enforceability of every other provision (and of the same provision in every other jurisdiction) will not in any way be affected or impaired. The parties intend every provision of these Terms to be severable and enforceable to the fullest extent permitted by law. Our failure to enforce a provision is not a waiver. You may not assign these Terms; we may assign them in connection with a merger, acquisition, or sale of assets. These Terms, together with the Privacy policy, are the entire agreement between you and us regarding the Service.
