The Diabits app is a Beta stage product.  Estimated values may not always reflect actual glucose values. For any medical decisions regarding your health, consult with your doctor and use your continuous glucose monitor (CGM). Make sure to review our Terms of Service and research your blood sugar management options before using the Diabits app.

​Diabits app Terms of Service

BY DOWNLOADING THE DIABITS APP (“APP”) AND/OR USING THE FEATURES OF THE APP YOU HEREBY SIGNIFY THAT YOU HAVE READ, UNDERSTOOD, AND AGREE TO BE BOUND BY THESE TERMS OF SERVICE (“Terms”).  IF YOU DO NOT AGREE WITH THESE TERMS, DO NOT DOWNLOAD OR USE THE SOFTWARE.

​Bio Conscious Technologies, Inc. (”BCT")  has created the Diabits App, an iOS and Android compatible mobile app, which is currently available for download through Google Play and Apple App Store for early stage Beta testing. Diabits enables people with Type 1 Diabetes and parents or guardians of minors and adults with Type 1 Diabetes (collectively, “users”/”you”) to monitor the blood glucose levels via a self-injected transmitter that communicates with the user's mobile phone and can send alerts to the user and/or the minor’s parents or guardians when the user's blood glucose levels are low (the “Services”).  These Terms apply to any one downloading and using the Diabits App, and will govern use of Services. 

​To use and/or register for the Service you must be over the age of 16 years or the parent or legal guardian of the minor whose blood sugar you wish to monitor and must give consent or give consent on behalf of your minor child to download the App and participate in the Service.  You must not be a person barred from receiving the Service under the laws of the country in which you reside or from where you use the Service. By accepting these Terms you represent that you understand and agree to the foregoing.

Accordingly, the Diabits app and The Services may contain errors or inaccuracies that could cause failures, corruption or loss of data and/or information from your device and from peripherals (including, without limitation, servers and computers) connected thereto.  We strongly encourage you to not rely solely on the Diabits app to monitor your or your child’s blood glucose levels during the Trial phase of the App and Services. You assume all risks and all costs associated with your use of  the Diabits app and the services, including, without limitation, any internet access fees, third party data charges, back-up expenses, costs incurred for the use of your device and peripherals, any damage to any equipment, software, information or data, and any health-related incidents that may arise as a result of any failure, error or interruption of the Diabits app and the services in monitoring and alerting you about you or your child’s blood glucose levels. In addition, BCT is not obligated to provide any maintenance, technical or other support for the Services or provide access to the Services under these beta-testing terms for any minimum period of time.
