The L8NT System

The L8NT System is a patented system  that includes a computer- connected antenna device (the “Device”) with software and related drivers (“L8NT Client”) for connecting to a cloud-based platform (“L8NT Cloud”).  The L8NT System works by receiving and analyzing wireless networking traffic for MAC addresses (“fingerprints”) of known stolen or wanted wireless-enabled devices.  The L8NT System is able to detect wireless-enabled devices that are within range of the receiver as long as the wireless capability is activated.  The mobile device does not need to be connected to a network, and connection to an encrypted network does not protect the device from detection.  The L8NT System includes a backend database populated with the MAC address for wanted devices. This requires the Agency and other departments and users of the System to input the MAC address into the database.   

In order to use the L8NT System, the Agency is required to purchase the antenna device (the “Device”) and install the L8NT Client on the computer that is running the Device.  The L8NT Client and the L8NT Cloud are linked by a provision key to restrict the number of licensed L8NT Clients.  The L8NT Client is subject to licenses described below, and L8NT Cloud is subject to the subscription described below. 

Subscription to the L8NT System

Subject to the payment of fees in Section 4, and the other terms and conditions of this Agreement, Latent hereby grants Agency a non-exclusive, non-transferable subscription to the L8NT Services during the Subscription Term.  The Subscription Term will begin on the Effective Date and continue for one (1) year.  The Subscription Term will automatically renew thereafter for successive one (1) year periods, unless Agency notifies Latent at least thirty (30) days before the end of the then current period.  Each successive annual renewal period becomes a part of the Subscription Term.  

Agency Covenants, Representations and Warranties

Agency will ensure that each of its licensed users complies with the terms of this Agreement and the Terms of Use of the L8NT System.  Agency will not share, sublease, or transfer its provision key or any other credential with another agency or any other third party.  Agency may input MAC addresses for devices into the L8NT System consistent with this Agreement.  By inputting MAC addresses into the L8NT System, Agency warrants that it is legally allowed to do so.  This means, without limitation, that the device associated with the MAC address was reported stolen, is eligible for entry into the National Crime Information Center’s database, is being sought pursuant to a valid court order, being entered upon the request of the device-owner, is registered as a test device for Agency training, or any other lawful use.   By inputting a MAC address into the System, Agency represents that it is not violating any applicable law, statute, ordinance, or regulation.  Agency further agrees that it will: (a) provide Latent with: (i) all necessary cooperation in relation to this Agreement; and (ii) all necessary access to such information as may be required by Latent to provide the L8NT System, including, but not limited to, the data that you input into the L8NT System; (b) comply with all applicable laws and regulations with respect to your activities under this Agreement; (c) carry out all other responsibilities set out in this Agreement in a timely and efficient manner; (d) obtain and maintain all necessary licenses, consents, and permissions necessary for Latent to perform its obligations under this Agreement; (e) ensure that your computer hardware, network and systems comply with the relevant specifications provided by Latent from time to time; and (f) be solely responsible for procuring and maintaining the Device, network, network connections, and telecommunications links from your systems to Latent’s servers, and all problems, conditions, delays, delivery failures and all other loss or damage arising from or relating to your network, network connections, or telecommunications links or caused by the Internet.  

The representations and warranties in this Section are important because other law enforcement officers may rely on the information in the L8NT System to seek a court order or otherwise take action to obtain the device associated with the MAC address or other information that you have inputted into the L8NT System.  Along with the MAC address, the contact information for the reporting agent or agency is also required.  Agency should verify the accuracy of any information in the L8NT System with the reporting agent or agency before taking any legal action.  Latent is not in a position to review data that Agency or any other user or agency inputs into the L8NT System, and cannot nor will not be held liable for data inputted into the L8NT System.  Once the device no longer meets the criteria of Section 3 for which it was entered, Agency must make sure that the MAC address is deactivated in the L8NT System, so that it is not acted upon later.  

Payment and Fees

Use of the L8NT System requires an annual subscription for each L8NT Client.  Each Device must be purchased separately.  Agency agrees to pay the subscription fee on or before the annual anniversary of the Effective Date for the Subscription Term.   The fees for the subscription to the Services are billed in advance, are non-refundable, and automatically renew on an annual basis.  The Subscription Fee for each renewal period is subject to change, and such changes will be effective thirty (30) days after such changes have been posted on the website or after Agency has received notice from Latent for the next renewal period of the Subscription Term.  

Latent reserves the right to deactivate Agency’s access to the L8NT Services and terminate the Agreement for failure to pay the Subscription Fee as described in this Agreement when due.  Unless otherwise stated, all fees are stated in U.S. Dollars.

Cancellation and Termination

Agency can cancel the subscription and this Agreement at any time by sending Latent notice.  All fees that have been billed to Agency are non-refundable, so Latent must receive such notice at least thirty (30) days before the renewal fee is due to avoid billing the Agency account.  
Latent may terminate this Agreement immediately upon any material breach by Agency of any of the terms in this Agreement.  Latent also may terminate this Agreement without cause on thirty (30) days advance notice to Agency, in which case Latent will reimburse Agency pro-rata for any time remaining on the Agency’s subscription before the renewal fee is due.  Latent will have no other liabilities for exercising its right to terminate this Agreement under this Section.  
On cancellation or termination of this Agreement for any reason: (i) the Agency subscription to the L8NT Service, as well as all permissions, subscriptions, and licenses granted to Agency by Latent under this Agreement and the Subscription Term will immediately terminate, and Agency will make no further use of the L8NT Service; (ii) Latent may immediately destroy or otherwise dispose of any of the data that Agency uploaded to L8NT System; and (iii) Latent’s accrued rights to payment, as well as Sections 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8 9, 10, 11, 12, and 13 will survive termination or cancellation of this Agreement, however arising. 

Intellectual Property

Agency agrees that Latent owns all intellectual property rights in the L8NT Service.  Except as expressly stated herein for the Subscription Term, this Agreement does not grant you any rights to, or in, patents, copyrights, database rights, trade secrets, trade names, trademarks (whether registered or unregistered), or any other rights or licenses with respect to the L8NT Services.  Agency further agree that it will not: (a) attempt to copy, modify, duplicate, create derivative works from, frame, mirror, republish, download, display, transmit, or distribute all or any portion of the L8NT Services in any form or media or by any means; (b) attempt to reverse compile, disassemble, emulate, reverse engineer or otherwise reduce to human-perceivable form all or any part of the L8NT Services; (c) access all or any part of the L8NT Services in order to build a product or service which competes with the L8NT Services; or (d) use the L8NT Services to provide services to third parties without prior written consent.
