Service Boundary

24-hour dispatch is not a substitute for emergency services

OTC Station Dispatch is an education and family coordination service. It does not replace local police, ambulance, hospital emergency departments, school safeguarding / duty officer systems, accommodation-provider obligations, insurance assistance lines, legal advice, immigration advice or a legally appointed guardian.

「24 小時」指調度響應、聯絡升級、家長端更新與記錄整理；若涉及人身安全、醫療、犯罪、失蹤、嚴重心理危機或法律責任，應立即聯絡當地緊急服務、學校值班系統、住宿方、保險公司或合資格專業人士。
