Conduct

PitPat products are provided for the benefit and enjoyment of pets and their owners, and you or your pet must not do anything that threatens or affects that, or which threatens or causes harm or distress to any animal, human or organisation.

We may require your cooperation if you want to exercise certain rights granted under any of our terms. If you fail to cooperate you may forfeit those rights.

Privacy

Your privacy is very important to us. Our Privacy Policy applies to information that we hold in relation to you and your pet(s). Your acceptance of our terms includes our Privacy Policy.  

Communication

As part of our relationship with you, and in accordance with applicable laws and any necessary consent, we may communicate with you electronically and in other ways to – among other things – update you on your and your pets’ performance, show progress towards goals etc, remind you of the benefits of the products you own or use, encourage you to make the most of such products, share special offers and promotions, ask you for your opinion on existing or possible new products and features, and introduce you to new features of or changes to our product range. 

We will provide you with mechanisms to control and/or turn off these communications.

We may however need to communicate with you to provide you with a product you ask for. If so, you may not be able to opt out of this communication whilst still receiving or using the product.

Security

Our responsibility

Our products (including our devices and software applications) incorporate security mechanisms and technologies intended to protect your security and comply with relevant law.

We continually review and update these mechanisms, and provide firmware/software updates where appropriate and technically feasible for a minimum period of one year after your purchase.

Should you have any concern relating to security or wish to report a security incident you can contact us on help@pitpat.com.

Your responsibility

We ask each separate user of our products to create their own separate account(s), to choose strong and unique password(s), to keep them secret, and not to re-use them anywhere else.

If you create any account(s) with us, or we provide you with one or more accounts, you are responsible for all activity through those account(s). We are not responsible if other people access your account(s) with or without your permission.

Please do not share the details of your account(s) with anyone else, including members of your family. If you'd like to share access to your pet with anyone else, please use the proper pet-sharing mechanisms we provide in our app.

Ownership

We respect others’ rights, and require you to do the same.

Nothing in the relationship between you and us – or your use of our products – transfers the ownership of any information or intellectual property (IP) between you and us. Our trademarks, software, knowledge and all other IP continues to belong to us; your information and IP continues to belong to you; and information and IP belonging to others continues to belong to them.

If you provide any data or other information to us or upload it via our products, you warrant that you have the right to do so, and that you can and do grant us the rights to use it in accordance with our Privacy Policy.

Our liability

We want you to trust and rely on our products.

We make every reasonable and professional effort to ensure our products function as you would expect they should, that they are safe and accurate, that they can (where appropriate) be attached securely to your pet, and that they continue to work and be available to you whenever you require them.

However, our products are provided to you “as is”, and you are solely responsible for the use(s) you make of them and the outcome(s) that result. 

You are responsible for the health, safety and well-being of your pet(s), and must not rely on any information or advice we provide. Information provided by and through our products is for guidance only. We require you to use good judgement in using our products and in choosing whether or not to apply or follow any advice, guidelines, instructions or recommendations you may receive from or through them or us. 

You are responsible for the security and prevention against the loss, theft or damage of any of our product(s) that you may attach to your pet(s). Unless you have purchased specific protection against such circumstances from us, we are not liable to refund or replace any such product no matter when or under what circumstances the loss, theft or damage occurred. You must replace any such product at your own cost if you wish to continue to make use of our services. We may, in our absolute discretion, offer an ex gratia discounted price for a replacement product if we are satisfied that the circumstances of its demise are genuine and merit such an offer.

To the extent permitted by law, we make no formal promises about the fitness, performance, accuracy, safety, correctness or any other characteristic of our products or your use of them, nor about their continued availability.

We may modify, or temporarily or permanently withdraw our products at any time. There may also be bugs and unexpected outages. Whilst we will try to warn you about these things (including in advance if possible), we cannot promise to do so.

If we recommend, point you at or redirect you to a third-party product or source of information, we take no responsibility for your possible use of that product or information, and you should be aware that it may be governed by separate terms.

Our liability to you (including for any direct or indirect losses you may suffer) is limited to the price you paid for our products. Please check our additional terms for further product-specific details on our liability.

Termination

You may terminate this agreement at any time by closing your account(s) using any mechanism that we provide or by contacting us on help@pitpat.com. If you don't have an account, you can still let us know that you wish to terminate this agreement by contacting us on help@pitpat.com and by stopping your use of our products.

We may temporarily or permanently and without warning suspend your access to our products and our relationship with you or terminate this agreement and withdraw our permission for you to use our products and to benefit from any accrued obligation we may owe you if we believe you haven’t complied with any of these or any of our additional terms.

We may also exercise the above rights and consequences in respect of any of our products if we believe you have stopped using that product for a period of at least 12 months, or immediately if we decide to withdraw that product from sale. In either case, it may not always be possible to reinstate access to that product, and any possible reinstatement may require the payment by you of a fee.

If your access to or use of any of our products is suspended or this agreement is terminated by you or us, your personal data will continue to be governed by our Privacy Policy but may, at our discretion, be immediately or subsequently deleted by us without warning.

Enforcement

If you don’t comply with these or any of our additional terms, and we fail to take action, that doesn’t mean we’ve given up our rights. And if any of our terms isn’t enforceable, the others will still apply.

Transfer

We may transfer our rights and obligations under these and any of our additional terms to a third party. This may happen, for example, if the ownership structure of our company changes, or if we merge, acquire or are acquired by another organisation.

Changes

We may make changes to these or any of our additional terms at any time in the future. If we do so, the appropriate page(s) will be updated, and we may attempt (but don’t guarantee) to notify you by email or in some other way.  Please check back frequently to make sure you understand and agree with our latest terms.
