Privacy Policy

Use of your personal information is governed by the Fatigue Science Privacy Policy. Please review the Privacy Policy to understand what personal information is collected and how it is used.

Intended Use of the Services

The Services are intended to provide you with information to help you understand the impact of sleep – its quantity, quality and timing – on your effectiveness in performing tasks especially sensitive to fatigue.

The Services are intended for your personal, non-commercial use. The Services are not intended as a medical application or for healthcare use. Always consult your doctor for any health or medical concerns. Do not use or rely on the Services for medical assessment or diagnosis.

The Services, or portions of the Services, may be amended, updated or discontinued from time to time.

Limitations

Please note that information generated through the Services may not be accurate for every individual or situation. No technology can accurately predict fatigue in all cases for all individuals. In addition, there are many factors, apart from fatigue, that can affect an individual’s ability to perform tasks. For more information about the models and assumptions behind the Services see the SAFTE® Fatigue Model Overview, Assumptions and Limitations.
