TERMS OF USE

Last updated: September 2025

WiZ Terms of Use

1. What this document covers and our relationship.

a. We know it is tempting to not look at these WiZ Terms of Use (“Terms”), but understanding these Terms is important so that you know what you can expect from us and also know what we require from you.

b. Your relationship with us: These Terms set out the relationship between you and us. When we refer to “we”, “us” or “our”, we mean Signify Netherlands B.V., the company behind the WiZ products with Netherlands Chamber of Commerce registration number 17061150, VAT number NL009076992B01 and business location at High Tech Campus 48, 5656 AE Eindhoven, The Netherlands.

c. Services covered: The services are for WiZ, Philips or third party branded products that connects to the WiZ platform with a two-way communication between the WiZ product and the WiZ system (either with a WiZ mobile application or with a WiZ mobile application and the WiZ cloud) (“Products”) and cover your access and use of software embedded in the Products, your access and use of our app to be downloaded to your smartphone or tablet, and services and features accessible for the Products through our website and our app. We refer to all of these as the “Services”. Products (those that are WiZ or Philips branded), are specifically designed and developed for domestic use in normal conditions and operation only.

d. Age requirements: If you’re not of the legal contracting age, you must have your parent or legal guardian’s permission to accept these Terms, to use the Services and to create a user account.

e. What is not regulated herein: Your purchase of a Product is covered by the applicable sale terms when you bought the Product and includes any statutory warranty rights you have as a consumer in your country of residence. Certain features of the Services may be subject to additional terms, which we will provide with such features.

f. Third-Party Commissioning: If you choose to commission your Products via a third-party commissioner using a standard (Matter) or otherwise (e.g., to control the Products via other smart home devices) (“Third-Party Commissioning”), then you accept and agree to these Terms as part of your Third-Party Commissioning. Through such Third-Party Commissioning, you shall be bound to these Terms, including the relevant Services restrictions. It may be possible for other members of your household to add (additional) Products once a Product has been commissioned into such third-party commissioner’s system, and therefore, you are solely responsible for ensuring that all users within your household who use the Products are informed of and comply with these Terms. We disclaim any responsibility or liability for any consequences resulting from the use of the Products by individuals who have not personally consented to these Terms of Use.

2. Using the Services.

a. Permission to use the Services: We give you permission to use the Services to control and monitor the Products you own or are authorized to control and monitor.

b. Register a User Account: The Services may require that you have a user account in order to use the Services. You are responsible for the accuracy of your information (to setup your user account) and taking steps to keep your user account secure. For more on your privacy, see section 5.

c. You can authorize individuals: If you are the administrator (we refer to such users as “Admin” or “Owner”), you can authorize as permitted by the Services, other individuals to access, use, monitor and control the Products and Services. We refer to such individuals as “Authorized Users”. You should only authorize those individuals whom you trust to access Products and the Services.

d. Improving the Services:

•  We are always trying to improve the Services and the Products, so they may change over time. We may update the Services by providing (bug) fixes or modifications, introduce new features or functionality, change or discontinue (temporary or permanently) any feature or functionality, component or content, impose limits on certain features or restrict access to parts or all of the Services. All of these updates and changes we refer to as “Updates”.

•  In some cases, the Updates may cause older hardware devices, third party services, software configurations or setups to no longer work with the Services, and you may be required to upgrade or change these devices, services, configurations or setups in order to continue using the Services.

•  Our End of Support policy as provided separately to you on our website at https://www.wizconnected.com/end-of-support-policy is applicable. If there are any differences between our End of Support policy and a warranty provided by us with the Product or if our End of Support policy may result in the termination of support for Products within the stated warranty period, then our End of Support policy will supersede the terms of such warranty.

•  Updates may occur automatically without additional notice or receiving any additional consent from you. You consent to these automatic Updates. If you do not want such Updates to be automatically installed, you can indicate that in the settings of your app. We may also ask you to install Updates yourself, and you are responsible to do so promptly. Your failure to install any Updates may expose you to risks (like security risks) and will affect and limit our liability and ability to provide the Services to you.

e. Services are dependent on: Proper functioning of the Services relies on the transmission of data through third-party devices and service providers, including your wi-fi network, enabled wireless device (such as a smartphone or tablet) and (for certain Products) broadband internet access. Signify has no control over and is not responsible for any of these third-party devices and services, compatibility and proper configuration thereof with the Products and Services and related costs. If these devices or services are interrupted, delayed, refused or otherwise limited for any reason, it may result in the Services being unreliable or unavailable for the duration of the limitations. You are responsible for any charges for these third-party devices and services. In particular, streaming and viewing recorded videos may incur extra and substantial charges.

f. Your conduct: In providing the Services, we want to maintain the Services for everyone, which means you must follow these rules of conduct:

m. AI Features: "AI Features" refers to the artificial intelligence functions built into the Products or the Services. We might add AI Features to do specific jobs and will tell you how they work, their limitations, and any restrictions when we introduce them. How well the AI Features work depends on the quality and availability of the data they use. They might not always work as expected, and we can't promise they will always perform well, be accurate, or reliable. They might give wrong, incomplete, or surprising results.
