Terms & Conditions
Sense Labs, Inc. (“Sense Labs”) provides a Sense home energy monitoring service (“Sense”) for analysis of home electrical use. Depending on your configuration, Sense may run on third party supplied hardware such as a Sense-enabled electric meter (“Third Party Hardware”) or on energy monitoring hardware from Sense Labs (“Sense Hardware”). Sense is composed of (1) software embedded in Sense Hardware (“Software”), and (2) a user account and applications and services made available to you through mobile devices and/or our website ( https://sense.com) (the “Site”) (collectively, the “Service”).
These Terms & Conditions govern your use of Sense and the Site, and if applicable your purchase of Sense and of the Sense Hardware. These Terms & Conditions give you specific legal rights, and you may also have other legal rights, which vary from jurisdiction to jurisdiction. The disclaimers, exclusions, and limitations of liability under these Terms & Conditions will not apply to the extent prohibited by applicable law. Some jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion of implied warranties or the exclusion or limitation of incidental or consequential damages or other rights, so those provisions of these Terms & Conditions may not apply to you.
THIS IS A LEGAL AGREEMENT. BY USING SENSE AND/OR USING THE SITE, YOU ARE ACCEPTING AND AGREEING TO THESE TERMS & CONDITIONS ON BEHALF OF YOURSELF OR THE ENTITY YOU REPRESENT. YOU REPRESENT AND WARRANT THAT YOU HAVE THE RIGHT, AUTHORITY, AND CAPACITY TO ACCEPT AND AGREE TO THESE TERMS & CONDITIONS ON BEHALF OF YOURSELF OR THE ENTITY YOU REPRESENT. YOU REPRESENT THAT YOU ARE OF SUFFICIENT LEGAL AGE IN YOUR JURISDICTION OR RESIDENCE TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT. IF YOU DO NOT AGREE WITH ANY OF THE PROVISIONS OF THESE TERMS & CONDITIONS, YOU SHOULD DISCONNECT THE SENSE HARDWARE AND CEASE USING SENSE AND/OR YOU SHOULD STOP USING THE SITE.
We reserve the right to change these Terms & Conditions at any time, so please review the Terms & Conditions each time prior to making a purchase from Sense Labs, using Sense, or visiting the Site. Every time you order Sense Hardware, use Sense, or visit the Site, the Terms & Conditions in force at that time will apply between you and Sense Labs. If you have any questions regarding these Terms & Conditions, you can contact Sense Labs as provided herein.
Although our Site is accessible worldwide, Sense is designed and tested only for use in the United States and Canada. If you choose to install and use Sense Hardware outside the United States or Canada, you do so on your own initiative and you are solely responsible for complying with applicable local laws in your country. To the extent permissible by law, Sense Labs accepts no responsibility or liability for any damage or loss caused by your installation and use of Sense Hardware outside the United States or Canada.

The Service is subject to sporadic interruptions and failures for a variety of reasons beyond Sense Labs’ control, including Internet connectivity, Wi-Fi intermittency and availability, service provider uptime, mobile notifications and carriers, among others. You acknowledge these limitations and agree that Sense Labs is not responsible for any damages allegedly caused by the failure or delay of the Service to reflect current status or notifications.
(ii) Reliability of Information. You acknowledge that the Service, including remote access and information, is not intended to be 100% reliable and 100% available. We cannot and do not guarantee that you will receive information in any given time or at all. YOU AGREE THAT YOU WILL NOT RELY ON THE SERVICE FOR ANY LIFE SAFETY OR CRITICAL PURPOSES. INFORMATION FROM SENSE IS PROVIDED FOR INFORMATIONAL PURPOSES ONLY – IT IS NOT A SUBSTITUTE FOR A THIRD-PARTY MONITORED EMERGENCY NOTIFICATION SYSTEM.
(iii) Temporary Suspension. The Service may be suspended temporarily without notice for security reasons, system failure, maintenance and repair, or other circumstances. You agree that you will not be entitled to any refund or rebate for such suspensions. Sense Labs does not offer any specific uptime guarantee for the Service.

(v) Energy Savings and other Benefits. Sense Labs does not guarantee or promise any specific level of energy savings or other monetary benefit from the use of Sense or any feature thereof. Actual energy savings and monetary benefits vary with factors beyond Sense Labs’ control or knowledge. From time to time, Sense Labs may use the Service to provide you with information that is unique to you and your energy usage and suggests an opportunity to save money on energy bills if you adopt suggestions or features of Sense. We do this to highlight an opportunity based on our analysis and information about you and your household. You acknowledge that these recommendations are not a guarantee of actual savings, and you agree not to seek monetary or other remedies from Sense Labs if your savings differ.
(h) Limitations Of the Service Due to Third Parties.

You acknowledge that these Terms & Conditions are between you and Sense Labs, and not with an App Store. Each App Store may have its own terms and conditions to which you must agree before downloading mobile applications from it. You agree to comply with, and your license to use the mobile applications is conditioned upon your compliance with, such App Store terms and conditions.

You may return the Sense Hardware for any reason within 120 days of the date of delivery following the original retail purchase from Sense Labs (the “Cancellation Period”) for a full refund of your purchase price. To do this, you must inform us of your decision within the Cancellation Period by contacting Sense Labs customer support (https://help.sense.com) and clearly stating your desire to return the Sense Hardware.

To receive a refund, you must return the Sense Hardware with an RMA within the 14 days following the day on which you notify Sense Labs customer support that you desire to return the Sense Hardware. Unless the Sense Hardware is faulty or not as described, you will be responsible for all costs associated with returning the Sense Hardware to us. We will refund the price you paid for the Sense Hardware plus original delivery cost (up to the value of our ground delivery option). We may reduce the amount of your refund to reflect any reduction in the value of the Sense Hardware, as determined in our sole discretion, caused by your handling the Sense Hardware in a way which goes beyond what is necessary to establish their nature, characteristics and functioning (e.g., beyond what would normally be permitted in a shop).
We will process the refund due to you as soon as possible and, in any case, within 30 days from the date of receipt by Sense Labs of the returned Sense Hardware. Sense Hardware is not eligible for a refund after the 120-day period. THE SENSE HARDWARE RETURN POLICY APPLIES ONLY TO PURCHASES MADE AT WWW.SENSE.COM.
