Predator Alert
Our Device is the only children’s GPS device on the market that lets you know when it is near a
registered sex offender’s residence. Amber Alert GPS ties in with US Department of Justice Dru
Sjopdin National Sex Offender database and identifies when the Device is near the home of a
registered sex offender.
To receive Predator Alerts, select Alerts from the main menu and then click the Predator tab. If you
have purchased this service, the “Current Status” notice in the top right-hand corner of the screen
should indicate “ON”. To deactivate Predator Alerts to all Users, click the STOP button. REMEMBER,
if you press the STOP button, no Predator Alerts will be sent to any of your designated Users,
the “Current Status” notice will indicate “OFF”, and the menu tab labeled “Predator” will display a red
circle icon with a minus sign in the middle.
Once the Device has arrived within 500 feet of a registered sex offender’s residence, the server will
send out an email alert to designated Users. If SMS (text message) alerts have been purchased, the
server will send out an SMS (text message) alert to the designated Users.
A registered sex offender’s residence will be represented on the map by the blue man icon. To view
the details of a specific sex offender, click the icon. A Predator details pop-up will appear.
Predator Alert’s (registered sex offender proximity alerts) are based upon data provided by the
United States Department of Justice Dru Sjodin National Sex Offender Public Website (“NSOPW”)
database. That website can be found at [www.nsopw.gov]. The NSOPW expressly warns that it
cannot guarantee the accuracy, completeness or timeliness of the information drawn from the state
registries. Accordingly, we cannot guarantee the accuracy, completeness or timeliness of the data
upon which our Predator Alert services are based.
