5. Using Our Data Services and Software Apps
5.1 What are our Software Apps? We may provide Software Apps for your use on your computer or Smart Devices in connection with your use of DexCom Products. Software Apps may provide stand-alone functionality, may be used in connection with our Data Services, or both.
5.2 What are our Data Services? Our Data Services are intended to allow a User or Prescription Device User, as applicable, to use the data generated by, or created in connection with the use of, their DexCom Product ("User Data") for which the Data Service is compatible ("User Device") to help the User or Prescription Device User, as applicable, manage his or her diabetes in accordance with the applicable DexCom Product Labeling. Use of our Data Services requires an internet-enabled Smart Device or computer. Each Data Service receives User Data from a Software App that is downloaded to your Smart Device or computer. Our Data Services process User Data applying proprietary methodologies, provide data, and where applicable, provide reports, to Users or Prescription Device Users. Our Data Services may also permit Users or Prescription Device Users to share User Data, reports and other information relating to the User or Prescription Device User. Prescription Device Users are entitled to provide, or direct the Data Service to provide, such data and reports to others as they determine at their own responsibility. You acknowledge and agree that Data Services are not a substitute for regular monitoring and medical care, and that you will ensure that all appropriate treatment, attention and efforts are made by and for the benefit of the User or Prescription Device User, as applicable, to maintain his or her health and wellness. Our collection, storage and transmission of User Data and any other information that you provide to DexCom through DexCom Services and Software Apps is governed by the Privacy Policy.
5.3 What is required for you to use our Data Services and Software Apps? Each Data Service or Software App may require the creation of a DexCom user account on our Website ("User Account"). If so, you are required to accurately complete and maintain the User Account and to provide us with all required information. You are responsible for obtaining, maintaining and paying for all hardware, software and telecommunications and other services necessary for the use of the Data Services and/or the Software Apps including, but not limited to, properly running compatible updated software, a suitable internet connection, an appropriate firewall and virus scanning software, a proper cable to connect your User Device to your computer or to a Smart Device, and a properly maintained User Device.
5.4 How do you use our Data Services? Our Data Services may directly interface and interoperate with your DexCom Product or may require the download of a Software App. Certain Data Services may allow you to send your User Data to certain third parties selected by you. By selecting the third party (which may be a person, a software app, or another business), you are authorizing us to send your User Data to each party you select. DexCom does not verify or validate any information regarding such third parties or the information you have provided regarding them. Once your information has been provided to a third party designated by you, DexCom has no further control or responsibility regarding that information. Our collection, storage and transmission of data in connection with Data Services is governed by the Privacy Policy. You are responsible for connecting your computer or Smart Device running the Software App or Data Service to the internet.
5.5 Third-Party Software Updates. Our Software Apps run on specific versions of third party operating systems and browser software for your computer or Smart Device ("Platform Software"). When the third-party provider issues an update to Platform Software, we will require additional time to provide a compatible update to the Software App. If you update Platform Software prior to our making available an appropriate update to a Software App, you may no longer be able to use the Software App you have been using, or the Software App may not properly function. We may determine not to provide a compatible update to the Software App, and therefore before you update Platform Software, you should first check the applicable location where you originally downloaded the Software App to determine if an update to the Software App or Data Service is needed. We may automatically download and install updates to our Software Apps for time to time, and you agree to receive such updates (and permit us to deliver these updates) as part of your use of the Software Apps.
5.6 Consistent Use.

As a result, such DexCom Products, DexCom Services and Software Apps must be used only with the applicable User Device and associated User Account. Failure to do so may (1) cause the applicable DexCom Product, DexCom Service or Software App to perform improperly, or not to perform at all, (2) corrupt the User Data, or (3) cause inaccurate User Data to be associated with the User or cause the User Data to be inaccurately displayed or analyzed.

19. Copyright Infringement Claims. The Digital Millennium Copyright Act of 1998 (the "DMCA") provides recourse for copyright owners who believe that material appearing on the Internet infringes their rights under U.S. copyright law. If you believe in good faith that materials available on the DexCom Services infringe your copyright, you (or your agent) may send to DexCom a written notice by mail or by e-mail requesting that DexCom remove such material or block access to it. If you believe in good faith that someone has wrongly submitted to us a notice of copyright infringement involving content that you made available through any DexCom Service, the DMCA permits you to send to DexCom a counter-notice. Notices and counter-notices must meet the then-current statutory requirements imposed by the DMCA. Click here for details. Notices and counter-notices must be sent in writing to DexCom's DMCA agent as follows: By mail to General Counsel, DexCom, Inc., 6340 Sequence Drive, San Diego, California 92121, United States, or by e-mail to [email protected] You can also reach DexCom's DMCA agent at the following phone number: 1 (888) 738-3646.
