You agree we may monitor and analyze Horus GPS Data for detecting whether an Accident may have occurred and for” Commercial Roadside Dispatch Services” to help locate the exact location of the vehicle” and providing that location to a third-party Service provider . If your data is potentially relevant to an insurance claim, you agree we may use Horus GPS Data to assist in resolving the claim. This may include, but is not necessarily limited to, validating the circumstances of the Accident, such as date and time of loss and crash location; making liability and coverage determinations, and conducting investigations of membership and/or claims fraud and material misrepresentation; and any potential subrogation or litigation involving the claim. However, you agree that CDL Protect has the discretion to deny unlawful requests or unlawful subpoenas for the above information.
The App temporarily stores Horus GPS Data on your smartphone, and then uploads it for processing by CDL Protect. Transmission of Horus GPS Data uses a portion of data on your cell phone plan. The online connection required to use the App, and any associated charges (e.g., mobile data expenses) incurred by your use of the App, are your exclusive responsibility and made solely at your expense.
For most smartphones, battery consumption is negligible when not collecting Horus GPS Data. When driving, battery consumption is comparable to other driving and navigation apps. If the phone’s battery power is low, the App will reduce the data collected to conserve energy. Care should be taken to charge the battery while driving if you take longer trips.
Horus GPS Data Privacy. We're committed to protecting your privacy and earning your trust, and understand you may have questions about how we use the Horus GPS Data we collect. In addition to our commitment to you in our Privacy & Security Policy at CDL Protect.com, we explain what we will and won’t do with Horus GPS Data in our Horus GPS mobile Privacy Statement, located at www.cdl.club/privacy-policy
Viewing Horus GPS Data. Customers will be able to review reports on their driving habits produced from Horus GPS Data through the App. Location information and trip maps are only available on the individual phone which collected the information.
Limited Horus GPS Data for all Horus GPS participants will be available to customers who log into their account online or via the CDL Protect mobile app. No location data for other phones will be available – just summaries of hard braking, hard accelerations, time of day, distracted driving and mileage.
Communications
We will periodically send you reminders and other information through the App, by email, and/or by phone while you’re participating in Horus GPS.

RoadSide Assistance/Theft Response
In your state or situation, the App may be used both as GPS Locator/Tracker and as a powerful anti-theft device. In case the Member, or other “authorized company representative requests “Roadside Dispatch/Assistance Services” We use the sensors in your installed Horus GPS Device to obtain the exact location of where you are located for the purposes of sending to detect if you are in a major motor vehicle collision or theft (“Event”). Accident Alerts/Vibration Alerts is turned on by default, but you can turn it off in the Settings within the App.
When Roadside RESPONSE is requested, you expressly consent to allow CDL Protect and/or its vendor(s) to contact you or your device by push notification, in-app message, text message, or phone call, including through use of an automatic telephone dialing system, in connection with the detection of an Event. You also consent that any call made to you or your device may be recorded.
If an Event is detected and an ambulance or tow is dispatched, we will automatically open an investigation under your membership. We may or may not follow up by contacting you depending upon the investigation results. We will not automatically open a investigation if only a tow is dispatched, and you pay for that tow out of your own pocket when service is rendered.
The App is intended to detect major Events, but may not detect all Events. Additionally, the App may incorrectly identify some non-collisions as Events. You will be required to pay for ambulance, investigative, any types of damages or repairs and/or towing services.
Roadside Assistance/”Accident Response” will only be available while the App is installed and all required permissions are enabled. Accident Response is available to eligible members in states where the App is available.

YOU UNDERSTAND THAT CDL PROTECT AND ITS VENDORS CANNOT ASSURE YOU, OR MAKE ANY GUARANTEES, ABOUT THE MANNER OR TIMELINESS OF THIRD-PARTY EMERGENCY RESPONSE OR EVEN WHETHER THIRD PARTY EMERGENCY RESPONDERS WILL IN FACT RESPOND TO YOUR EMERGENCY AT ALL. IN NO EVENT SHALL CDL PROTECT AND ITS VENDORS BE HELD LIABLE IN INSTANCES WHERE THE APP HAS BEEN HINDERED FROM OPERATING; FOR THE TIMELINESS OF THE RESPONSE OF EMERGENCY ASSISTIVE SERVICES OR THEIR FAILURE TO ARRIVE AT THE SCENE OF THE COLLISION; AND WHERE THE ACCIDENT RESPONSE PROGRAM FAILS TO OPERATE AS DESCRIBED OR EXPECTED.
CDL PROTECT MAKES NO GUARANTEES AS TO THE RECOVERABILITY OF A LOST OR STOLEN VEHICLE OR ANY TRANSPORTED ITEMS. CDL PROTECT WILL COMPLY WITH ANY LAWFUL REQUESTS TO DISCLOSE Horus GPS DATA FROM A GOVERNMENT OR LAW ENFORCEMENT AGENCY BUT IS NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY FURTHER ASSISTANCE, AND YOU AGREE TO HOLD HARMLESS AND WAIVE ANY LIABILITY FOR CDL PROTECT RELATED TO DAMAGES FOR A LOST OR STOLEN VEHICLE.
