1. My Guardian Link Is Not 911

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.

My Guardian Link supports 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, parent, guardian, or other appropriate resource when available and appropriate.

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

Nothing in My Guardian Link prevents you from calling 911 directly.

6. Location Accuracy Is Not Guaranteed

A map link, GPS coordinate, nearest address, or displayed location may not identify your exact location.

If you can safely speak or message, you should provide your location and any important details directly.

7. SMS, Calls, Push Notifications, and Emails May Fail

My Guardian Link may rely on SMS/text messages, phone calls, push notifications, emails, in-app messages, map links, and other communication methods.

9. Urgent Response Coordinator and Contact Center Limitations

My Guardian Link may involve Urgent Response Coordinators, contact centers, central stations, service providers, or other response-support partners.

My Guardian Link does not guarantee:

  • Coordinator availability at a specific moment;
  • Immediate review;
  • Immediate call back;

  • That a coordinator can understand incomplete information;

Coordinators and response partners may rely on information provided by you, your device, your account, your app permissions, your location services, and third-party networks.

10. Central Station, PSAP, 911, and Public Safety Limitations

When available and appropriate, My Guardian Link or a response partner may attempt to escalate information to a central station, PSAP, 911 center, law enforcement agency, fire department, EMS provider, roadside provider, caregiver, or other resource.

My Guardian Link may support silent activation, quiet activation, voice activation, wearable activation, or situations where a user cannot safely speak.

These features depend on device settings, app permissions, connectivity, background processes, operating system limits, microphone access where applicable, voice assistant settings where applicable, and third-party services.

Silent or voice activation may fail or may not transmit complete information.

If you can safely speak, call, text, or provide additional details, you should do so.

My Guardian Link may offer practice, demo, or training features.

Practice or demo features should be used only as instructed and only through approved practice tools.

Do not test the live urgent signal system unless My Guardian Link expressly authorizes a live test.
