Section 8 Directions for Using Service.

Section 8.1 Removing Bicycle. Stony Brook University individuals are required to identify their affiliation with the University by selecting one of two choices on a Kiosk; Student or Faculty/Staff/Visitor. Once a choice is selected, a user is required to swipe their SBU ID card or their credit/debit card into the reader slot on the Kiosk.

Current Students are considered Subscribers and once they swipe their SBU ID, enter in their personal PIN number and agree to the Bicycle Rental Agreement, Liability Waiver, Release, they are provided an unlocking code that is used at the Bike Dock in order to remove a SBU Bike Share bicycle from the Bike Dock.

Faculty/Staff/Visitors are required to purchase an SBU Bike Share subscription and once purchased, they are then considered Subscribers and must agree to the Bicycle Rental Agreement, Liability Waiver, Release. Once Subscribers agree to the Bicycle Rental Agreement, Liability Waiver, Release, they are provided an unlocking code that is used at the Bike Dock in order to remove a SBU Bike Share bicycle from the Bike Dock.

After the SBU ID or credit/debit card has been inserted into the reader slot, the Subscriber has one hundred and twenty (120) seconds to enter the unlocking code at the Bike Dock. Once the Subscriber enters the unlocking code into the Bike Dock, they have one hundred and twenty (120) seconds to remove the SBU Bike Share bicycle from the Bike Dock. If the unlocking code is not entered or the SBU Bike Share bicycle is not removed within the time limits, the Bike Dock locks and the Subscriber must repeat the process described above at the Kiosk. On each Bike Dock, a signal light remains yellow during the validation of the Subscriber's SBU ID card/credit/debit card and the signal light turns green when the SBU Bike Share bicycle can be removed. There are also two sounds signals that are also emitted from the Bike Dock.

Section 8.2 Returning Bicycle. To return the SBU Bike Share bicycle, a Subscriber must secure it into an available Bike Dock. A sound signal is emitted, and the signal light turns yellow, then green, confirming that the SBU Bike Share bicycle has been properly secured to the Bike Dock. If the SBU Bike Share bicycle is not properly secured in the Bike Dock, then the signal light turns red, and a longer signal sound is emitted. If the signal light turns red, the Subscriber must repeat the operation until the signal light turns green, and the SBU Bike Share bicycle is properly secured in the Bike Dock. If the signal light does not turn green, the Subscriber must return the SBU Bike Share bicycle to another available Bike Dock. If there is no available Bike Dock at the Station, then the Subscriber must push the "Request Time Credit" button on the Kiosk and Subscribers must also insert their SBU ID Card or their credit/debit card at the Kiosk, to obtain an additional 15-minute credit in which to return the SBU Bike Share bicycle to another Station. No fee is charged to the Subscriber for the additional 15-minute credit.

Any SBU Bike Share bicycle that is not properly secured remains the sole responsibility of the Subscriber, and the Additional Charges set forth in Section 6 will be charged until the SBU Bike Share bicycle is properly secured.

Section 8.3 Obtaining Receipt. Subscribers may print a receipt to confirm that the SBU Bike Share bicycle has been properly returned to the Bike Dock. The date and time of return are indicated on the receipt, and the receipt may be used to dispute a chargeable trip. To obtain a receipt, Subscribers can contact the Office of Sustainability at sustainability@stonybrook.edu.

Section 8.4 Permitted Period of Use; Lost or Stolen Bicycle. Use of the Service is limited to Monday - Sunday from 5:00am thru 11:00pm ("Permitted Period of Use"). If a Subscriber maintains possession of the SBU Bike Share bicycle beyond the Permitted Period of Use, then the Subscriber is subject to additional fees, as listed in Section 6. If the SBU Bike Share bicycle is deemed lost or stolen, Subscriber's credit card or student account will be charged a fee of $1,350.00, and a police report must be filed by the Subscriber for a lost/stolen bike with the Stony Brook University Police Department. SBU will attempt to contact the Subscriber (via telephone and email for Subscribers) before charging the credit card. The data generated by the Service's computer is conclusive evidence of the period of use of a SBU Bike Share bicycle by a Subscriber. For any disappearance of a SBU Bike Share bicycle where a Subscriber is held responsible, the Subscriber must report the disappearance to Stony Brook University Office of Sustainability and the Stony Brook University Police Department within twenty four (24) hours following the disappearance. Any use that exceeds the Permitted Period of Use is deemed a disappearance of the SBU Bike Share bicycle, until the SBU Bike Share bicycle is found or returned to a Bike Dock.

Section 9 General Assumption of Risk by Subscriber. Subscriber agrees that riding a SBU Bike Share bicycle involves many risks, dangers, and hazards, which may result in injury or death to the Subscriber or others, as well as damage to property, and that such risks, dangers, and hazards cannot always be predicted or avoided.

Subscribers have an on-going duty to update all changes relating to their credit card. SBU uses Elavon ("Processor") as its transaction payment processor. The transmission of data to Processor and the approval of a credit card should take less than 10 seconds; however, a credit card might not allow for an overcharge/overdraft, which means that a Subscriber's transaction request could be denied. All denials of a transaction by a Subscriber's bank, all holds, and all other similar issues are the Subscriber's sole responsibility and should be dealt with between the Subscriber and his or her bank. As required by applicable law, SBU must and will take all necessary and reasonable steps to ensure that all data transmitted by SBU is done safely, securely, and privately.
