Terms and Conditions

Effective date: 15 May 2026

Last updated: 15 May 2026

Provider: OC Global Technology Sdn Bhd, Johor Bahru, Malaysia

These Terms and Conditions (the "Terms") form a binding agreement between you ("you" or "User") and OC Global Technology Sdn Bhd ("OCare", "we", "us", or "our"). They govern your access to and use of the OCare mobile application, the OCare administration dashboard, the OCare APIs, and any related services (collectively, the "Service"). By creating an account, downloading the app, or otherwise accessing the Service, you agree to these Terms, to our Privacy Policy, and to the End User Licence Agreement. If you do not agree, do not use the Service.

Important. OCare is a school safety and wellbeing tool. It is not a replacement for emergency services or for professional mental-health care. In a life-threatening emergency, contact your local emergency number (in Malaysia: 999) immediately.

1. Acceptance & Eligibility

OCare is intended for use by participating Schools, their authorised staff, parents and guardians, and students whose accounts are created or approved by the School. By accessing or using the Service you represent that: (a) you meet the minimum age permitted by applicable law and your School's policy — generally at least 13 years old, and the higher minimum age set by your local law where applicable; (b) you are authorised by a participating school or institution (the "School") to use the Service; and (c) you have the legal capacity to enter into these Terms, or, where local law requires parental or guardian authorisation for users below the digital-consent age, the School and/or your parent or guardian has provided that authorisation before your account was provisioned.

The School is responsible for confirming each student's age and for obtaining and recording any parent or guardian authorisation required by local law before provisioning access. OCare may suspend or delete accounts that do not meet these requirements.

If you are using the Service on behalf of a School, you represent that you have authority to bind that School to these Terms.

2. Accounts & Provisioning

3. Licence to Use the App

Subject to your compliance with these Terms, OCare grants you a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable, non-sublicensable, revocable licence to install and use the OCare mobile application on a device you own or control, solely for the personal, internal, and educational purpose of using the Service in connection with your School.

You must not:

4. User Responsibilities & Acceptable Use

You agree not to use the Service to:

Violations may result in content removal, account suspension or termination, and where appropriate, referral to your School and to law-enforcement authorities.

5. Your Content

5.1 Ownership

You retain all rights you have in the content you submit ("User Content"), including diary entries, posts, messages, mood check-ins, and attachments.

5.2 Licence to OCare

You grant OCare a worldwide, non-exclusive, royalty-free licence to host, store, reproduce, transmit, display, adapt, and process your User Content solely to (a) operate, secure, and improve the Service, (b) run the safety features described in Section 6 and 7, (c) make the content visible to other users who are entitled to see it under your School's configuration, and (d) comply with legal obligations. This licence ends when your User Content is deleted in accordance with the Privacy Policy, except where retention is required by law or to enforce these Terms.

5.3 Your responsibility

You are solely responsible for your User Content and represent that you have all rights necessary to grant the licence above. OCare does not endorse, verify, or assume responsibility for User Content.

5.4 Removal

OCare may remove or restrict User Content that violates these Terms, applicable law, or your School's policies. Where reasonable and lawful, we will notify the user.

5.5 User-generated content safeguards

OCare operates a zero-tolerance policy for objectionable content (including pornographic, sexually explicit, child-sexual-abuse, hateful, harassing, threatening, bullying, and violent content) and for abusive users. OCare cannot pre-screen every transmission and does not endorse, verify, or vouch for User Content; you alone are responsible for what you submit. To mitigate harm OCare uses automated and human moderation to detect, filter, hide, remove, or restrict objectionable, unsafe, or policy-violating content, and provides the following safety controls, all accessible directly from the app:

You acknowledge that the foregoing controls are mitigations, not guarantees. Some objectionable content may appear before it is detected and removed. OCare's role is to provide the tools, react promptly to reports, and remove violators — you agree to use the in-app Report control and not to rely on OCare to anticipate every transmission.

Urgent content-safety reports: support@ocare.ocgt.app.

5.6 Appeals

Where permitted by law and School policy, you may appeal a content removal, account restriction, or AI-related flag by contacting your School administrator or support@ocare.ocgt.app. We may withhold details where disclosure would create a safety, security, privacy, or legal risk.

6. SOS & Safety Features

The SOS feature is designed for genuine emergencies. False alerts may result in immediate account suspension and referral to your School or relevant authorities.

OCare is not an emergency service. Do not rely on the Service to summon emergency help. In a life-threatening emergency, contact 999 (Malaysia) or your local emergency number first.

Delivery of SOS alerts depends on factors outside our control, including network coverage, device state, and recipient availability.

Schools are responsible for configuring authorised recipients, response procedures, escalation pathways, and guardian or emergency-contact records. OCare provides software tools to support communication and triage but does not guarantee that any alert will be received, reviewed, or escalated within a particular timeframe.

7. AI Moderation & Crisis Resources

OCare runs automated content moderation on diary entries, posts, and chat messages. Details of models, retention, and human oversight are in the Privacy Policy, Section 6.

AI output may route content for human review, but it does not by itself impose account penalties, disciplinary action, law-enforcement reports, or formal school cases.

AI results may be incomplete, delayed, incorrect, or affected by language, context, sarcasm, slang, code-switching, or missing information. Risk labels are screening signals for human triage only and must not be treated as a medical diagnosis, counselling advice, or proof of misconduct. Schools and authorised reviewers remain responsible for applying professional judgement, safeguarding procedures, and applicable child-protection obligations. The AI system is not a medical device and does not replace assessment by a qualified mental-health professional.

8. Privacy

Our Privacy Policy describes how we collect, use, and share personal data, and is incorporated into these Terms by reference. By using the Service you acknowledge that you have read and understood it.

In-app disclosures and permissions

Certain features present additional in-app disclosures or permission prompts before collecting or using sensitive data, including SOS location, microphone recordings, media uploads, push notifications, and AI safety analysis of submitted content. If a disclosure or consent prompt is shown, you must review and accept it before using that feature. You can manage device permissions through your device settings, but disabling permissions may limit or disable the related features.

9. Intellectual Property

All software, design, trademarks, logos, and content provided by OCare (excluding User Content) are the property of OCare or its licensors and are protected by copyright, trademark, and other laws. "OCare" and the OCare logo are trademarks of OC Global Technology Sdn Bhd No rights are granted to you in respect of those marks except as expressly stated.

Feedback

If you submit suggestions or feedback, you grant OCare a perpetual, irrevocable, royalty-free licence to use them without restriction.

Copyright complaints

To report alleged copyright infringement, email legal@ocare.ocgt.app with: identification of the work, identification of the allegedly infringing material, your contact information, a good-faith statement, an accuracy statement, and your signature.

10. Third-Party Services

The Service relies on third-party providers (push notifications, email delivery, media storage, hosting) listed in the Privacy Policy. Their terms and privacy notices govern your interaction with their services. OCare is not responsible for third-party services, but we use commercially reasonable efforts to select providers with appropriate security and privacy practices.

You must comply with all applicable third-party terms of agreement when using the Service, including mobile network, device platform, Apple App Store, Google Play, and any third-party service terms that apply to features you use.

11. Fees

End users (students, parents, school staff) access the Service free of charge under a licence held by their School. The commercial agreement between OCare and the School is separate from these Terms. OCare may offer optional paid features in the future; any such features will be clearly identified and subject to additional terms.

12. Service Availability & Changes

We strive for high availability but do not guarantee uninterrupted access. Scheduled maintenance, unscheduled outages, capacity limits, and dependencies on third-party networks may affect availability.

We may add, modify, or remove features at any time. We will give reasonable notice of material changes that materially reduce functionality available to end users.

13. Disclaimers

The Service is provided "as is" and "as available" without warranties of any kind, whether express, implied, or statutory, including warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, non-infringement, and any warranty arising out of course of dealing or usage of trade.

Without limiting the foregoing, OCare does not warrant that the Service will be uninterrupted, secure, error-free, or free of harmful components, that defects will be corrected, or that the Service will meet your requirements. OCare disclaims any liability for actions or inaction by users, schools, or third parties.

14. Limitation of Liability

OCare's aggregate liability arising out of or relating to these Terms or the Service will not exceed the greater of (a) the fees paid by the School for the Service in the twelve months preceding the event giving rise to liability, or (b) one hundred Malaysian Ringgit (RM 100).

For student users who lack legal capacity, this clause applies only to the extent enforceable under applicable law and any required parent/guardian agreement.

16. Suspension & Termination

We may suspend or terminate your access immediately and without notice if (a) you breach these Terms, (b) we are required to do so by law, (c) your School directs us to, or (d) continued access poses a security or safety risk.

You may stop using the Service at any time. You may delete your account from Settings → Account → Delete Account or via https://ocare.ocgt.app/delete-account. Sections that by their nature should survive termination will survive (including 5.2 licence for retained content, 9, 13, 14, 15, and 19).

Deleting your account may not immediately remove content already reviewed by authorised School staff, content included in an active safety investigation or safeguarding case, content preserved for legal-compliance or regulatory reasons, copies retained in backups for a limited period (≤ 35 days, then overwritten), or content that has been anonymised or de-identified. Public or group-visible posts may be de-identified or removed in accordance with the Privacy Policy, Section 10 and your School's policy. For school-provisioned accounts, deletion requests may be coordinated with or routed to the School where required by law or School policy.
