Contact: info@myguardianlink.com

This Acceptable Use Policy (“Policy”) governs the acceptable and prohibited use of the My Guardian Link™ website, mobile application, platform, urgent communication tools, trusted contact features, notification services, group plans, sponsor plans, referral plans, administrative tools, and related services (collectively, the “Services”).

This Policy applies to all users, including individual consumers, trusted contacts, emergency contacts, caregivers, group members, sponsor group members, referral group members, administrators, business customers, partners, vendors, response partners, and any other person or organization that accesses or uses the Services.

By accessing or using the Services, you agree to comply with this Policy. This Policy is incorporated into the My Guardian Link Terms of Use, Privacy Policy, Master Services Agreement, Data Processing Addendum, Order Forms, Sponsor Group Addenda, Referral Group Addenda, and any other applicable agreements.

1. Purpose of this Policy

My Guardian Link is designed to support urgent communication, trusted contact notification, location sharing, response coordination, and possible escalation to a third-party urgent response contact center, central station, public safety resource, roadside provider, caregiver, or other appropriate resource when available and appropriate.

Because the Services may involve urgent signals, location data, personal information, trusted contacts, emergency contacts, response coordinators, central stations, and public safety resources, misuse of the Services can create serious consequences.

This Policy exists to protect:

  • Users;
  • Trusted contacts;
  • Emergency contacts;
  • Caregivers;
  • Families;
  • Group members;
  • Administrators;
  • Response coordinators;
  • Contact centers;
  • Central stations;
  • Public safety resources;
  • My Guardian Link;
  • Service providers;
  • The public.

2. Important Emergency Service Notice

My Guardian Link is not 911. My Guardian Link is not a police department, fire department, ambulance service, public safety answering point, government emergency service, emergency medical provider, security company, or law enforcement agency.

The Services are intended to support urgent communication and response coordination. They do not replace calling 911 or local emergency services.

If you can safely call 911 or local emergency services directly, you should do so.

You may not use My Guardian Link in a way that falsely suggests, implies, or represents that My Guardian Link guarantees emergency response, police dispatch, rescue, prevention of harm, or any specific outcome.

3. Acceptable Uses

You may use My Guardian Link only for legitimate, good-faith purposes.

Acceptable uses may include:

  • Activating Urgent Assist when you reasonably believe you are in danger or need urgent help;
  • Using a silent or loud urgent signal when you cannot safely speak;
  • Notifying trusted contacts of a real or reasonably perceived concern;
  • Sharing your location with trusted contacts during an urgent or safety-related situation;
  • Sending a See Something Say Something report about a legitimate concern;
  • Using Roadside Assistance communication tools for a legitimate roadside or vehicle-related situation;
  • Using caregiver, family, sponsor group, or trusted circle features for legitimate support;
  • Participating in approved onboarding, training, demo, or practice features;
  • Using the Services for personal protection, prevention, deterrence, communication, and documentation;
  • Managing a sponsor group, referral group, family group, or enterprise group in accordance with applicable agreements;
  • Receiving alerts as a trusted contact, emergency contact, caregiver, or authorized recipient;
  • Communicating with My Guardian Link support, response partners, or administrators for legitimate service reasons.

4. False, Prank, Malicious, or Improper Activations Are Prohibited

You may not activate or use the Services for false, prank, malicious, deceptive, harassing, abusive, unauthorized, or improper purposes.

Prohibited activations include:

  • Fake urgent signals;
  • Prank alerts;
  • Malicious reports;
  • False See Something Say Something reports;

  • Activations intended to misuse response coordinators, trusted contacts, central stations, public safety resources, or service providers;
  • Repeated activations without a legitimate good-faith basis;
  • Activations intended to test the live system outside approved practice or demo features;
  • Activations using false identity, false location, false incident details, or misleading information.

Misuse may be treated with the same seriousness as misuse of public emergency resources.

You may use practice or demo features only:

  • Through designated practice or demo tools;
  • As instructed by My Guardian Link;

  • Without creating unnecessary burden on response coordinators, central stations, trusted contacts, or public safety resources.

Any activation outside an approved practice or demo feature may be treated as a live urgent signal.

Unauthorized testing of the live system is prohibited.
