Questions people ask us
Straight answers.
Can I shower with an alcohol bracelet?
Yes, you can shower. You can't take baths, swim or use a hot tub, because the bracelet can't go underwater.
What can set it off besides drinking?
Products with alcohol in them: hand sanitizer, mouthwash, cologne, body spray, some lotions and bug sprays. Switch to alcohol-free versions while you wear it. The bracelet looks for the pattern of drinking, but it's easier to just avoid these.
Does it hurt? Can people see it?
It doesn't hurt. It's about the size of a large watch face and sits on your ankle. Long pants cover it.
Can I go to work and leave the house?
For alcohol and GPS monitoring, yes, as long as you follow your court order. House arrest limits you to the hours your judge sets. If your order lets you travel, tell us first.
What if I fall behind on payments?
Call us before it happens. We'll set up a plan. If you stop paying and stop talking to us, we have to tell the court, and nobody wants that.
Who sees my data?
Your court and probation officer. We don't sell or share it with anyone else.
Can I wear one even if I wasn't ordered to?
Yes. Many people start voluntarily, often on their lawyer's advice, to show a judge a sober record before sentencing. Same fees, same reports, sent to whoever you choose.
What happens if the bracelet says I drank?
We review the reading, then report it to your court the same day as the order requires. If it goes to a hearing, we explain the data to the judge.
