Terms & Conditions

Last updated: July, 2026

Please read these Terms of Service ("Terms") carefully before using Wakehound ("the App"). By downloading, installing, or using the App, you agree to these Terms. If you do not agree, do not use the App.

What Wakehound is

Wakehound is an Android application that uses your device's front camera to detect signs of driver drowsiness in real time and to alert you with sound, speech, and vibration. All processing happens on your device.

Safety disclaimer, please read

Wakehound is an assistive aid only. It is not a substitute for safe, attentive, and responsible driving, and it is not a medical device.

• The App may not detect all signs of drowsiness, fatigue, or impairment, and it may produce missed alerts or false alerts.
• Detection can be affected by lighting, camera position, glasses, face coverings, phone placement, and many other factors.
• The App does not diagnose, treat, or monitor any medical condition.
• You must never rely on the App to keep you awake or to make it safe to drive while tired.

You, the driver, remain fully and solely responsible for the safe operation of your vehicle at all times, and for complying with all traffic and safety laws. Always drive only when well-rested, and pull over immediately if you feel tired.

Eligibility and proper use

You must be a licensed driver and legally permitted to drive to use the App while driving. You agree to:

• Set up and position the App before driving, never while the vehicle is moving.
• Not let the App distract you from the road.
• Use the App only in a manner that is legal where you drive. Some jurisdictions restrict mounting or using a phone in a vehicle; it is your responsibility to comply.

Emergency contact and calling feature

The App lets you save an emergency contact and open your phone's dialer to call that number. The App does not place calls or send messages on your behalf, and it is not an emergency response service. In a real emergency, use your local emergency number and services.

Privacy

Wakehound processes camera data on-device only and does not collect, transmit, or share your personal data. Your settings, contacts, notes, and trip history are stored only on your device. See the Privacy Policy for details.

License

We grant you a personal, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable license to use the App for your own personal, non-commercial purposes, subject to these Terms. You may not copy, modify, reverse-engineer, resell, or redistribute the App except as permitted by law.

No warranty

The App is provided "as is" and "as available", without warranties of any kind, whether express or implied, including but not limited to fitness for a particular purpose, accuracy, reliability, or that the App will detect drowsiness or prevent any accident. You use the App at your own risk.

Limitation of liability

To the maximum extent permitted by law, we shall not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages, or for any loss, injury, or damage arising out of or related to your use of, or inability to use, the App, including any accident, injury, or loss connected with driving. Nothing in these Terms excludes liability that cannot be excluded under applicable law.

Changes to the App and Terms

We may update, change, or discontinue the App or these Terms at any time. If we change these Terms, we will update the "Last updated" date above. Continued use of the App after changes means you accept the updated Terms.

Governing law

These Terms are governed by the laws applicable in your place of residence, to the extent permitted, without regard to conflict-of-law rules.
