Terms of Use

(Last modified February 1, 2022)

1. Introduction and Definitions

Welcome to the Slice Services, which you may be accessing through a Website, Application, or other means. We are confident that you will find our Services useful. These Terms of Use (the “TOU”) cover several different situations, so please refer to the following definitions for clarification:

“Application” refers to a free app for iOS or Android created and owned by Slice. Application also includes any Application updates and upgrades that Slice may provide to you or make available to you, or that you obtain after the date you obtain your initial copy of the Application, to the extent that such items are not accompanied by a separate Terms of Use. The Application may be specified as either “iOS Application” or “Android Application”, for use in that Application’s operating system environment.

“Device” refers to the handheld or tablet device onto which you downloaded an Application and are using the Services, or are otherwise accessing the Services. The Device may be specified as either an “iOS Device” or “Android Device”.

“Insurance Policy” refers to any insurance policy provided by Slice or a Third-Party Insurer which defines the coverage (and related terms) for the Insured when a Logged-in User uses the Services to purchase On-Demand Insurance, and is hereby incorporated by reference into these TOU.

The full text of the Insurance Policy covering your On-Demand Insurance will be made available to you prior to your purchase of On-Demand Insurance.

“Insured” refers to an individual (or individuals) who is (are) the beneficiary of the On-Demand Insurance purchased through the Services, as more fully defined in the Insurance Policy.

“On-Demand Insurance” refers to any insurance purchased through the Services.

“Services” are the proprietary software services that Slice has developed to allow you to purchase On-Demand Insurance and submit insurance claims, which may be used through the Website, an Application, or other means.

“Slice” refers to Slice Insurance Technologies Inc., a duly incorporated company in the State of Delaware, USA, and all of its affiliates, subsidiaries and parent companies. Where the present TOU refers to “Slice”, it may refer to Slice or its shareholders, officers, directors, employees, agents, partners, principals, representatives, successors and assigns (collectively  “Representatives”), depending on the context. Any reference to “we”, “our”, or  “us” in these TOU shall also refer to Slice. In these TOU, a Website visitor or Services user may be referred to as “you”. When a user has created an account and is logged in, they may be referred to as a “Logged-in User”.

“Third-Party Insurer” refers to a company licensed to sell On-Demand Insurance in your jurisdiction, with whom you (or a third-party beneficiary) are subject to their Insurance Policy if you purchase their On-Demand Insurance through the Services.

“Website” may be the website located at https://slice.is  which is owned and operated by Slice and includes all subdomains (including but not limited to https:// versions of the Website), present and future. Website may also refer to a website at a different URL through which you are accessing the Services, which may be under common control of Slice and a Third-Party Insurer.

Additional definitions may be made throughout these TOU, but they will be recognizable as they will be capitalized, bolded, and in quotation marks. Additional definitions may also be found in the Privacy Policy or the Insurance Policy (as applicable), and will have the same meaning in these TOU as they do there. The definitions found in these TOU shall also apply to the Privacy Policy.
