By downloading and installing the CHEMM App, you acknowledge and agree to the following:

Purpose

The CHEMM App provides access to CHEMM resources that support hazardous chemical emergency preparedness and response. Content and tools intended to support active incident response are available for use without an internet connection after the application has been installed and required content has been downloaded. Certain preparedness resources, reference materials, and other features require an active internet connection to access information.

Automatic Updates

To provide the most current information, security improvements, and application features, the CHEMM App is designed to update automatically when:

• Your device has an active internet connection.

• Updated application files are available.

These updates may occur in the background without additional action on your part. You may be prompted to refresh or reopen the application to complete an update.

Because emergency response guidance may change, users should connect to the internet whenever possible to receive the latest available version of the application and its content.

Offline Use

The CHEMM App stores selected application files and content on your device to support offline access. Information available while offline may not reflect the most current updates until the application reconnects to the internet and synchronizes.

Users should verify they are using the latest available information whenever internet connectivity is available.

Device Storage

Installing the CHEMM App stores application data on your device. The amount of storage used may change as application updates are installed or additional content is cached for offline use.

Privacy

The CHEMM App does not require the creation of a user account. Use of the application remains subject to applicable U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) privacy policy, accessibility and website policies and CHEMM Disclaimers and Policies.

Availability

Reasonable efforts are made to maintain the availability and accuracy of CHEMM content. However, uninterrupted availability of the application or all features cannot be guaranteed.

Acceptance

By selecting Agree, you acknowledge that you have read and understand this notice and consent to the installation of the CHEMM App, including the automatic download and application of future updates when internet connectivity is available.
