MY TRANSIT Terms of Use

1. ACCEPTANCE OF TERMS
Welcome to MY TRANSIT. MY TRANSIT provides its service to you, subject to all Terms of Use and Privacy Policy presented in the NJ TRANSIT Copyright and Disclaimer Statement governing this NJ TRANSIT web site. NJ TRANSIT reserves to right to change, modify, add, or delete conditions in Terms of Service at anytime. See: TERMS OF USE.

2. DESCRIPTION OF SERVICE
MY TRANSIT currently provides users with access to a wide variety of on-line resources, including, various tools, to plan transportation via NJ TRANSIT including itinerary planning, schedule and fare information, and customer alerts. You understand and agree that the service is provided "AS-IS" and that MY TRANSIT assumes no responsibility for the timeliness, deletion, mis-delivery or failure to store any user communications or personalization settings. Further, you understand that registering for MY TRANSIT alerts does not implicitly or explicitly guarantee that an alert will be generated for every delay within the parameters following or that MY TRANSIT registration and alerts are not indicators or guarantees of performance by NJ TRANSIT trains, buses, or light rail vehicles.

MY TRANSIT alerts will be delivered to registrants according to the following criteria: (a) delays in service of 15 minutes or more; (b) cancellations in service; (c) closures of facilities affecting access to service. Alerts will be generated only during morning (5:30 a.m. - 9:30 a.m.) and evening (3:00 p.m. - 7:30 p.m.) peak periods on weekdays, Monday through Friday. NJ TRANSIT reserves the right to issue alerts outside of these times during service disruptions and outages at the discretion of management. However, issuing such alerts is not intended and should not be construed as a change in terms or service. Alerts will be generated for all NJ TRANSIT rail lines, bus lines serving New York City and Philadelphia, and light rail lines. Alerts will be generated based on the parameters of your trip and registration. To avoid receiving large numbers of alerts (especially when access charges are based on volume) register for alerts specific to train numbers, bus routes, and light rail systems utilized for your daily commute.

MY TRANSIT alerts will be composed to use a minimum of characters (maximum of 200 characters) to enable viewing on the widest range of wireless devices and widest access of wireless carriers. To achieve this, MY TRANSIT alerts will utilize abbreviations in referring to rail, bus, and light rail service. For example, NJCL for "North Jersey Coast Line". Abbreviations will be displayed for review during the MY TRANSIT registration or account management processes.

In order to access the NJ TRANSIT web site, you must obtain access to the World Wide Web, either directly or through devices that access web-based content, and pay any service fees associated with such access. In addition, you must provide all equipment necessary to make such connection to the World Wide Web, including a computer and modem or other access device. In order to receive MY TRANSIT alerts you must have access to an email account, or a wireless device (pager, cellular telephone, PDA, etc.) that can receive alphanumeric messages through an email address and access. Failure to maintain an active email or wireless service account, or failures by your ISP or wireless carrier so that you are unable to receive transit alerts are the responsibility of the registrant. Alert messages will be composed to be 200 characters or less. If your wireless device lacks 200-character capability or your wireless service account has restrictions and limitations of less than 200 characters, you will receive truncated messages.

3. YOUR REGISTRATION OBLIGATIONS

Failure to provide or maintain accurate and complete data that results in an inability to receive transit alerts if the responsibility of the registrant. You are solely responsible for the information pertaining to your account and itinerary and should print or otherwise maintain the specific information of your MY TRANSIT account in the event computer failure that causes a loss of data on your part or on servers maintained by NJ TRANSIT.
