Smart Voice Licenses

A Control System License is a digital item, providing the ability to create virtual ‘devices’ on the Smart Voice Portal, which can be used by Amazon Alexa, Google Assistant, and Apple HomeKit to control real devices through a user’s existing control system. Control System Licenses are purchased by the client either directly from Smart Voice, or from a registered integrator. When added to a client site, they allow devices to be created and accessible by either the Amazon Alexa service or the Google Assistant service. Once added, these Control System Licenses are non-transferrable and non-removable.

  1. Permission is granted to temporarily download one copy of the materials (information or software) on Smart Voice's website for personal, non-commercial transitory viewing only. This is the grant of a license, not a transfer of title, and under this license, you may not:
  • modify or copy the materials.
  • use the materials for any commercial purpose, or for any public display (commercial or non-commercial).
  • attempt to decompile or reverse engineer any software contained on Smart Voice's website.
  • remove any copyright or other proprietary notations from the materials; or
  • transfer the materials to another person or "mirror" the materials on any other server.
  1. This license shall automatically terminate if you violate any of these restrictions and may be terminated by Smart Voice at any time. Upon terminating your viewing of these materials or upon the termination of this license, you must destroy any downloaded materials in your possession whether in electronic or printed format.

Data Collection

Smart Voice provides a service to create smart home widgets for Alexa, Google Assistant and HomeKit using data from various home automation control systems.

  • Control system type
  • WAN IP and port
  • Local IP
  • Username and password
  • Control system serial number

For added security, we may also use the above to calculate or obtain access tokens where relevant for the control system.

  • Company name
  • Integrator name

To manage client accounts, we collect several points of data, including:

  • Client Name
  • Client Phone Number
