You may use H+P-O for the sole purposes set forth herein.

This includes any activity that may be used as a precursor to an attempted system penetration, including but not limited to port scans, stealth scans or other information-gathering activity; or (i) using H+P-O for any unlawful, harassing, abusive, criminal, or fraudulent purpose. H+P has the right to monitor, intercept and disclose any transmissions over or using our facilities, and to provide user information or use records, and other related information under certain circumstances (for example, in response to lawful process, orders, subpoenas, or warrants, or to protect our rights, users or property).
H+P uses reasonable organizational, technical, and administrative measures to protect personal information within our organization. Unfortunately, no data transmission or storage system can be guaranteed to be 100% secure. If you have reason to believe that your interaction with us is no longer secure, please immediately notify us.
H+P-O collects information about the location of your device. You must first provide permission through your device before our mobile applications obtain such location information from technologies like GPS, Wi-Fi, or cell tower proximity (or a combination of these technologies). H+P-O, and our service providers, may use and store this information, in combination with other location-based information such as IP address and billing, to provide enhanced location-based services, such as store-specific services, search results, and other content. You can stop all collection of information by our mobile applications easily by uninstalling the mobile applications. Also, you may opt-out from further allowing H+P-O to have access to your location data by adjusting the permissions in your mobile device.
You are responsible for your devices and accounts. You are responsible for any devices, software, and services needed to use H+P-O services. H + P does not guarantee that the online services will fully function on any particular device or with any particular software.

You may only use H+P-O with devices that you own or control and using only the authorized operating system. If you create an online services account, you are responsible for keeping the account secure and for all activity under the account. You can only use one online services account and must keep your account information accurate at all times.
Without liability to you, any user, or any third party, H+P may modify or terminate H+P-O, your access, or these Terms and Conditions for any reason, including the right to terminate with or without notice. Upon such termination, any and all rights granted by H+P to you shall terminate.
