7.22) Data roaming and overusage
Mobyforce is not responsible for any charges incurred for roaming and overusage charges incurred by Clients while using the Service.

Mobyforce strongly recommends Client to disable roaming while travelling outside of their normal coverage area.
7.23) Mobile Device Management ("MDM")
The Service is not a MDM Solution and Mobyforce may recommend using a MDM solution in conjunction with the Service depending on the Client use cases (e.g. ability to remotely wipe a smartphone or tablet, ability to only allow certain application(s), ability to prevent data roaming...).
7.24) Safety Watchdog & Emergency
Mobyforce takes security very seriously and the concept behind the Emergency and Safety Watchdog features is to provide additional mechanisms to protect your mobile workforce. However, these features are provided on a best effort basis and cannot be guaranteed (e.g. if the User is not in a cellular network coverage area, the native application will not be able to notify the cloud based infrastructure and trigger the corresponding emergency procedures). These features are not a replacement of your cellular service emergency (e.g. 911) calls. Client acknowledges and understands that Mobyforce will not be liable for any service outage and/or inability to notify or to access emergency operator. Client agrees to defend, indemnify, and hold harmless Mobyforce, its officers, directors, employees from any claims, losses, damages, fines, penalties, costs and expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable attorney fees) by, or on behalf of, User relating to the failure or outage of the service, including those related to the Emergency and Safety Watchdog features.
7.25) Do not use while driving or operating any equipment
Mobyforce strongly recommends NOT to be reviewing or inputting any data into a mobile device while driving or operating any type of equipment. Client assumes full responsibility, acknowledges and agrees that Mobyforce is not liable for any loss, issues, accidents, harm or damage that may be incurred by Client as a result of using the Service while driving or operating any equipment.
7.26) Location tracking
Mobyforce provides multiple location based features as part of the Service. These features are optional and can be activated/deactivated by the Client at its own discretion. Each individual User can also deactivate location tracking within the application (and the User can also deactivate any location tracking through the settings of its smartphone or tablet). Mobyforce takes the User privacy rights very seriously and offer multiple location tracking mode and parameters to respect the privacy of the User while still providing valuable location based services to Client.
To provide location-based features as part of the Service (e.g. last known location...), Mobyforce collects and uses the real-time geographic location of the User smartphone or tablet. The location is provided by the smartphone or tablet internal sensor(s) (e.g. GPS...) and its precision and accuracy are device specific and cannot be guaranteed. In some situations (e.g. indoors), the location might not even be available.
7.27) Location and movement analysis features
In addition to displaying the collected location data (the"raw" locations), Mobyforce has implemented a patented set of algorithms that automatically analyze those raw locations to determine the actual User movement segments (e.g. "In Transit", "Stopped"...). The algorithms typically require multiple iterations to determine the actual movements of a User and the corresponding results might temporarily fluctuate (e.g. when a User is in transit but temporarily stopped at a red light...). In addition, the "Lenient mode" parameter lets the algorithms use "most likely scenario" when some locations are missing: e.g. if a User enters a building, stays in that building for several minutes (no location available during that time frame) and then leaves that building (i.e. same location before and after), the algorithms will report that the User was "Stopped" at that location when the lenient mode is activated (even though there is no actual collected data to guarantee that the User was stopped in that building).
The location and movement analysis results are provided on a best effort basis and they cannot be guaranteed. Client acknowledges and understands that Mobyforce will not be liable for any incorrect User movement analysis. Client agrees to defend, indemnify, and hold harmless Mobyforce, its officers, directors, employees from any claims, losses, damages, fines, penalties, costs and expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable attorney fees) by, or on behalf of, User relating to the failure of the service, including those related to the location and movement analysis features.
7.28) Other Content
The Service may include hyperlinks to other websites or content or resources. Mobyforce has no control over any web sites or resources that are provided by companies or persons other than Mobyforce. Client acknowledges and agrees that Mobyforce is not responsible for the availability of any such external sites or resources, and does not endorse any advertising, products or other materials on or available from such websites or resources.
Client acknowledges and agrees that Mobyforce is not liable for any loss or damage that may be incurred by Client as a result of the availability of those external sites or resources, or as a result of any reliance placed by Client on the completeness, accuracy or existence of any advertising, products, or other materials on, or available from, such websites or resources.
8) Web Site accessibility
The majority of the pages on the Web Site are accessible to individuals with disabilities in accordance with Section 508 of the Rehabilitation Act. If Client has difficulties accessing any part of the site, please let Mobyforce know, and Mobyforce will do its best to reasonably provide Client with prompt access to the information Client desires.

As part of this continuing innovation, Client acknowledges and agrees that Mobyforce may stop (temporarily or permanently) providing the Service (or any features within the Service) to Client or to Users generally at Mobyforce's sole discretion, without prior notice to Client. Mobyforce reserves the right to refuse or discontinue the Service to anyone, and to disable Users' access to the Service, at any time in its sole discretion with or without notice.
10) Confidentiality

The Receiving Party shall be responsible for any breach of the Terms by its employees and/or agents and by any other person to whom the Receiving Party has disclosed the Confidential Information to the same extent that the Receiving Party would be responsible to the Disclosing Party if the Receiving Party had breached the Agreement. Receiving Party agrees to and shall take all reasonable steps to protect the confidentiality of the Confidential Information.
