Terms & Conditions
Last updated: November 11, 2026
These terms govern your use of BU Sniper. By using the service, you agree to these terms. Our Privacy Policy explains how we handle personal information. Acceptance of these terms alone does not enroll you in SMS alerts.
Course monitoring
BU Sniper monitors course availability and provides alerts for the classes and sections you select. We do not register you for courses, reserve seats, or access your university account to enroll you. You are responsible for checking availability, prerequisites, registration restrictions, and deadlines through Boston University.
Availability may change between checks or before an alert reaches you. Monitoring and alerts may be delayed or interrupted. We do not guarantee an alert for every opening or successful enrollment. BU Sniper is independent of Boston University and is not affiliated with, sponsored by, or endorsed by the university.
Accounts and acceptable use
Provide accurate account and contact information, use a phone number you control, and keep your credentials secure. Do not misuse the service, bypass access controls, interfere with other users, or use another person's contact information without permission. We may restrict accounts that misuse the service or threaten its security.
Credits and purchases
One credit activates monitoring for one selected class section. Pack prices and credit quantities are displayed before confirmation. Unused credits never expire and are not cash. Removing an active watch within the eligible 24-hour window returns its spent credit to your balance; a credit return is not a cash refund. Contact support@busniper.app about billing issues or refund requests. These terms do not limit refund rights required by applicable law.
BU Sniper Course Alerts — SMS terms
Program name: BU Sniper Course Alerts. This program sends automated, informational SMS messages about seat availability in the classes and sections you choose to monitor. SMS availability is subject to activation of our messaging service.
- Consent: You must expressly opt in before receiving automated course-alert SMS messages. Consent is voluntary, is not a condition of purchase, and is separate from account verification and acceptance of these terms.
- Message frequency: Message frequency varies based on your selected classes, watchlist activity, and seat availability. Messages may arrive at any time because course openings can occur around the clock.
- Rates: Message and data rates may apply. Your carrier's charges are separate from BU Sniper credit prices. Contact your carrier about your messaging plan.
- Opt out: Reply STOP to any program message to unsubscribe. You may receive a confirmation of your opt-out. After opting out, you will not receive further program alerts unless you opt in again. Opting out does not itself delete your account or issue a refund.
- Help: Reply HELP for assistance or email support@busniper.app.
- Delivery: Delivery depends on your carrier and network availability. Carriers are not liable for delayed or undelivered messages. An alert does not guarantee a seat remains available.
- Privacy: Mobile information and SMS consent are not sold or shared for third-party marketing. See our Privacy Policy.
Service availability and responsibility
The service is provided on an as-available basis. To the extent permitted by applicable law, we do not make guarantees about uninterrupted access, error-free information, or a particular enrollment outcome. Nothing in these terms excludes responsibilities or rights that cannot legally be excluded.
Changes and support
We may update these terms and will revise the date above. We will provide additional notice where required. Material changes to the SMS program that require new consent will not be treated as accepted merely because you previously opted in.
