Last updated: 19 July 2026
These Terms of Service are effective from 19 July 2026. If you have questions, contact support@incognitofiresecurity.com.
1. Acceptance of Terms
By accessing or using Incognito Fire & Security Professional (“the Service”), you agree to be bound by these Terms of Service (“Terms”). If you do not agree to these Terms, you must not use the Service. Continued use of the Service after any changes to these Terms constitutes your acceptance of the revised Terms.
These Terms constitute a legally binding agreement between you (“the User”) and Shop Incognito Ltd, trading as Incognito Fire & Security (“the Operator”, “we”, “us”, “our”).
Incognito Fire & Security is a trading name of Shop Incognito Ltd.
2. Service Description
Incognito Fire & Security Professional is a subscription-based software-as-a-service platform providing:
- an AI-powered diagnostic assistant to help troubleshoot fire detection and security system faults;
- a searchable fault code database compiled from manufacturer and industry sources;
- a curated directory of manufacturer technical resources and documentation links; and
- supporting reference tools and information for professional engineers.
The Service is a reference and diagnostic support tool only. It does not replace BS 5839-1, BS 7273, EN 54 series, manufacturer installation and maintenance documentation, site-specific risk assessments, method statements, commissioning procedures, or the professional judgement of a qualified and competent engineer. All outputs provided by the Service must be independently verified before any work is carried out on site. The engineer and their employer remain solely and fully responsible for all work carried out on fire detection, alarm, and security systems.
3. Eligibility
The Service is designed and intended exclusively for use by competent persons working in the fire detection, alarm, and security industry in the United Kingdom. “Competent person” means a person who holds relevant industry qualifications and/or certifications (such as those issued by the Fire Industry Association (FIA), BAFE, NSI, SSAIB, or equivalent) and who has the skills, knowledge, and experience to carry out work on fire detection and alarm systems safely and in compliance with applicable standards and regulations.
By registering for the Service, you confirm that:
- you are at least 18 years of age;
- you are using the Service in a professional capacity within the fire and security industry;
- you have the competence to critically evaluate and verify information provided by the Service before acting upon it;
- you are not using the Service as a layperson to carry out work without appropriate qualifications; and
- you accept sole responsibility for how you use information provided by the Service on site.
4. Engineering Responsibility Disclaimer
Important — Please read carefully
This platform provides reference information only. It does not replace BS 5839-1, BS 7273, manufacturer documentation, site risk assessments, method statements, commissioning procedures, or the professional judgement of a qualified engineer. All outputs must be independently verified before use. The engineer and their employer remain solely responsible for all work carried out.
The AI assistant uses machine learning and may produce responses that are inaccurate, incomplete, or outdated. Responses are not reviewed by a qualified engineer in real time and must always be verified against current manufacturer documentation and applicable British and European Standards.
For high-risk systems — including fire suppression, smoke control, automatic opening ventilation (AOV), evacuation alarm systems, refuge systems, lift recall, plant shutdown, door release, or monitored systems — always obtain site-specific verification and follow the site-specific cause-and-effect matrix before carrying out any work.
Before carrying out any testing that may generate alarm signals, always place the alarm receiving centre (ARC) or monitoring station “on test” and return it “off test” afterwards, confirming with the ARC directly.
5. Subscription and Billing
Access to certain features of the Service requires an active paid subscription. The following billing terms apply:
- Plans and pricing: Subscription plans and prices are as displayed on our pricing page at the time of purchase. We reserve the right to change prices; you will be given at least 30 days’ advance notice of any price change affecting your existing subscription.
- Payment processing: Website payments are processed by Stripe, Inc. iOS app subscriptions are processed by Apple In-App Purchase. We do not store your card details.
- Auto-renewal: Subscriptions renew automatically at the end of each billing period (monthly or annually, as applicable) unless you cancel before the renewal date.
- Cancellation: You may cancel website subscriptions from your account settings or by contacting support. iOS in-app subscriptions are managed through your Apple Account subscriptions. Cancellation takes effect at the end of the current billing period; you retain access to paid features until that date.
- Refunds: Fees already paid are non-refundable except where required by applicable law (including the Consumer Rights Act 2015 where applicable). Partial-month refunds are not provided.

6. Acceptable Use
You agree to use the Service only for lawful professional purposes and in accordance with these Terms. You must not:
- use the Service if you are not a competent person in the fire and security industry;
- use the Service to obtain information for use by persons who are not competent to act on it;
