To invoke the cooling-off period, the service must not have been used and, therefore, the “code” must not have been entered in the application.

To access the http://motion.dotvision.com platform from the race area, the Customer must provide high-speed Internet access.

If on-site support (optional) is not included in the contract, the Customer must designate a person within the organization who will be responsible for the tracking. This will be the go-to contact person for DotVision, before, during and after the event, to ensure that the GPS tracking runs smoothly.

The smartphones available for rental will only provide access to the DotVision application and to DotVision contact numbers. The Customer will be billed for any other use thereof.
Article 4: INSURANCE FOR THE EQUIPMENT
Mandatory insurance is provided as part of DotVision’s equipment rental packages, covering all risks of damage to the equipment provided by DotVision. The cost of the insurance is €2.50 per tracker (excluding tax). This insurance does not cover loss of the tracker (which will be billed to the Customer at €150 plus €5 for the SIM card).
Article 5: PAYMENT
Scenario 1: Short-term rental. Payment is made in two installments: a 30% down payment at the time of reservation of the GPS devices (non-refundable), and payment of the remaining balance on receipt of the invoice, after the event. The number of devices defined in the initial quote may be reduced, up to one month before the event. Beyond that point, the final quantity cannot be decreased by more than 5%. Scenario 2: Specific projects. The payment terms will be defined in the custom service proposal for the Customer’s project.
Article 6: EQUIPMENT WARRANTY
DotVision Motion’s GPS trackers are guaranteed for a period of one year from the date of purchase.
Article 7: CUSTOMER SERVICE
DotVision will provide a safety stock of GPS trackers for the Customer’s event (up to 5% of the initial order quantity). In the event of an equipment malfunction, a telephone hotline is available to diagnose the problem encountered by the Customer.

DotVision will cover the associated shipping costs.
Article 8: RETURN OF THE EQUIPMENT
The Customer must check the equipment’s condition after each use: external inspection, cleanliness and good working order. Any necessary repairs will be covered by the insurance taken out with signature of DotVision’s service agreement.

Otherwise, a flat handling fee of €30 will be invoiced.

The Customer must always associate the DotVision name with any references to live race tracking, such as “DotVision GPS tracking,” “Live tracking from DotVision,” “GPS tracking provided by DotVision,” etc.
Article 11: LIABILITY
The Customer recognizes that live tracking is subject to the constraints of GPS and/or GPRS technologies. DotVision may not be held liable for any incorrect data (due to poor GPS reception) or missing data (due to poor GPRS network coverage). The Customer is aware of DotVision’s obligation of due care.
Article 12: INTERNATIONAL USE
In the event of use of DotVision’s system abroad, additional communications charges may be applied to the Customer’s invoice.
General Terms of Use
Introduction
DotVision offers the DotVision Motion application to track outdoor races. That application tracks a race organized between multiple athletes through the use of each participant’s smartphone in GPS tracker mode. During that use, you will share content (some of which will be your personal information) with others, and other users will share contact (some of which will be their personal information) with you. These General Terms of Use (GTU) define the rules of use, to ensure the necessary level of confidentiality for everyone and control over the publication of each person’s own personal data. The vendor will do everything in its power to be worthy of your trust, will not spy on you, resell your data or do anything without your explicit authorization. The DotVision Motion service is provided free of charge. The vendor offers additional options in the application that are available for a fee.
Terms of use of DotVision Motion
These GTU constitute a contract between you and DotVision. By using our DotVision Motion application or website, you are agreeing to all of these GTU. If you do not agree with these General Terms of Use, you should not use DotVision Motion.
Severability
Should any of the clauses contained in these GTU be found to be or become illegal, invalid or unenforceable in any particular jurisdiction, this will not affect the validity or the execution of that clause in any other jurisdiction, nor the validity or the execution of the other clauses contained in these GTU, regardless of the jurisdiction.
Data ownership
Data sharing is at the core of how DotVision Motion works (covering your geographic location, your personal information – full name, gender, date of birth, nationality, photo, contacts, email, telephone (including IMEI number and model), geographic positions transmitted during an activity or a battery test and the resulting statistics, and Google, Facebook and/or Microsoft identifier(s) – and anything else you want to provide during your use of the application). We claim no ownership of any information that belongs to you, and you will retain your full rights to the content that you submit to us. When you submit content to us by registering in the application and on the website, you accept full responsibility for that content, and you certify that you have the necessary rights to provide the following permissions: - To give DotVision Motion and its vendor, DotVision, as well as the companies with which we work, a non-exclusive, non-transferable license covering storage, copies (for purposes of redundant storage) and modification (for the purposes of disseminating and displaying that content); - To give DotVision Motion and its vendor, DotVision, a non-exclusive, non-transferable license to use that content to produce anonymized statistics, with Google Analytics for example.
Personal data
Below is an exhaustive, up-to-date list of your data that we will store, why and for how long: - At the time of account creation, you authorize us to store the following information about you: full name, photo, email address, age, weight, height, gender and geolocated positions during the races in which you will participate, plus additional, related information like speed, bearing and altitude. This information will be stored on DotVision Motion’s secure platform for the duration of your account’s activation. It will be deleted if and when you tell the application to delete your account. - To provide a better quality of service, we may use cookies or a local storage area to store certain information for no more than one month, such as your IP address, etc. - The user alone is responsible for activating tracking and for transmitting his/her real-time position. In the event of unintentional tracking activation (for example, a scheduled, automated launch for an event in which the user does not, in the end, participate, but that was not cancelled in the system, or in the case of user error), the user will have no recourse against DotVision. A notification appearing on the device’s status bar is provided to inform the user of his/her tracking activation status at any time. The user may then request the deletion of his/her location data.
Tracking quality
DotVision may not be held responsible for the transmission of inaccurate location data, or for an unexpected shutdown of the application, such as due to loss of battery power. DotVision has no control over the power consumed by the device (which is dependent on screen brightness, other apps running in the background, searching for a signal, the quality of the battery itself, and so on) or over the quality of the GPS chip embedded in the telephone. To determine the device’s estimated battery life and GPS accuracy, DotVision offers its users a test mode that allows them to run test tracking, which is then used to assess the device’s estimated autonomy in tracking mode, as well as the accuracy of the GPS chip. Additionally, DotVision cannot guarantee the real-time transmission of the location sampling data, as this is associated with the telephone carrier’s network coverage. Finally, the application should not be considered as a safety mechanism and has not been certified by any safety organizations. The DotVision Motion app is used under the sole responsibility of the user.
Log
The DotVision Motion app logs various tracking information in a dedicated file. That file may be sent to DotVision, in the interest of continuous improvement of the application. Its content is reset with each new tracking session and can be deleted at any time via the “My Device” page.
DotVision Motion user commitment
DotVision Motion users promise to use the application for the purpose of races organized with family, friends, co-workers, sports club members, participants in sporting events, and their audiences. The users agree not to divert the application from its intended use, as defined by these GTU, and, in particular, not to: - Break the law; - Infringe on another person’s privacy; - Use exaggerated quantities of resources that might impair the user experience.
Guarantees & disclaimer
The vendor will do everything in its power to improve and fix its applications every day. Despite those efforts, we cannot guarantee that our applications and our platforms will be bug-free. In the case of a malfunction in the DotVision Motion application or platform, DotVision may not be held liable in any way whatsoever, and the user shall not be entitled to any compensation.

To the extent allowed by law, DotVision Motion is provided with no commitments or guarantees of any kind. For example, and except in countries where these guarantees are implicit, we make no commitment as to its contents, functioning, use, reliability, suitability for a particular use, absence of pirating, etc. In the case of an optional, paid service, regardless of what may happen, in the case of any problems, DotVision will never reimburse the Customer for more than the amount that was originally paid. To the extent allowed by law, the service’s vendor may not be held liable for any damage or loss, including loss of use, business data, sales, revenue, and so on.
Support and end of service
