Test the spray upon receiving, and test every ~2 months or so. (IDK if you need to test the alarm). Obviously do this outdoors. Pepper sprays usually expire in 1.5-2.5 years. Make sure to replace these as necessary.
Testing is also a good opportunity to make sure you know how to use the trigger-lock quickly and can also be a chance to practice how to aim; try to have the person who will carry and possibly use this do the testing, don't do it on their behalf (or have them do it too).
Keep in mind pepper spray's purpose is to allow you to escape, not debilitate an attacker. Once deployed your primary goal is to put distance between you and an attacker. Don't hang out waiting for the police there - ideally go somewhere well lit and/or populated (eg, pop into a store if somewhere is open). THEN, when you are as safe as feasible, call 911.
These are legal in all states, though some have some or many restrictions. SABRE has a list of details on their site; don't let the fact that you can't buy from Amazon fully discourage you. (Someone else posted places which are more liberal with their shipping policies, but you should still make sure you are complying with local laws; aside from NY state mostly it's age restrictions.
The alarm is interesting though it seems like it has a built-in, non-replaceable battery making it effectively disposable (maybe?)? That seems meh. Not sure how useful it really is as, again, once you spray you should be running away and the noise makes you easier for the person to follow/find you. IMO the only safe way to use this would be to trigger it and immediately drop it before you put distance between you and your attacker.

In my research, depending on the situation, a a pepper spray device such as the OP's may not keep you safe.
Reddit has many posts on all this and alternatives available in "less lethal & Non lethal" categories with very informative comments from knowledgeable posters including law enforcement who have hands on experience with these self defense weapons in these categories.
I think if I wanted a product similar to OPs pepper spray and I could afford a few extra $$$, I would probably upgrade & opt for something like this:
