Terms & conditions
Version 1.0
These terms may change before release
The app is still being tested. This is a working draft and it may be updated, replaced or expanded before public launch. If we change anything important we'll say so on this page, update the version above and tell you in advance where the change affects something you've paid for.
1. Who we are and what this covers
- The company you contract with is Your Company Ltd, a company registered in England and Wales with company number 00000000.
- Registered office: 1 Example Street, Example Town, AB1 2CD, United Kingdom.
- We trade as the operator of this app and run Anglers-Intel and the branded creator and tackle-shop apps built on it ("we", "us", "the app").
- Contact: privacy@myappdomain.com. We aim to reply within five working days.
These terms are the agreement between you and us. By creating an account or using the app you accept them. If you don't accept them, please don't use the app. These placeholders will be replaced with our full registered details before public launch.
2. Your statutory rights come first
Nothing in these terms removes or reduces your rights under the Consumer Rights Act 2015, the Consumer Contracts Regulations 2013 or any other law that protects you as a consumer. If any wording here conflicts with those rights, your legal rights win.
That includes your right to expect digital content that is of satisfactory quality, fit for purpose and as described, and your right to a repair or replacement, a price reduction or a refund if it isn't, and your right to a repeat performance or a price reduction if a service isn't carried out with reasonable care and skill.
3. Who can use the app
- You must be at least 16 to hold an account of your own.
- Under 16s may use the app only where a parent or guardian has read and agreed to these terms on their behalf, holds or supervises the account, and supervises any fishing trip. A parent or guardian can ask us at any time to see, correct or delete a child's data, or to close the account, and we'll act on that request.
- You must be 18 or over to buy premium, buy a Circle, book a guided session, or receive any payout.
- One account per person. Accounts are personal and must not be shared, sold or transferred.
- The service is aimed at anglers in the United Kingdom. Forecasts, marks and safety guidance assume UK waters.
4. Your account
- Give accurate details and keep your email and password to yourself. You are responsible for what happens under your account.
- Premium is for one household. We allow up to 2 devices; if the same account is used in two places at once we pause premium for up to 24 hours. Repeat sharing can end the subscription.
- No automated collection: no scraping, crawling, bulk downloading, reverse engineering, or reselling anything you see in the app. No attempts to break access rules or read other people's data.
5. Safety — guidance only, no guarantees
Tide times and heights, weather, sea state, water clarity and species predictions are forecasts from third parties and our own scoring. They can be wrong, late or unavailable. Access notes, hazards and cut-off warnings are a help, not a complete list — conditions change and ground moves.
The decision to fish, where to stand and when to leave is always yours. Check official tide tables and local safety notices, tell someone where you are, and wear a flotation device where sensible. In an emergency call 999 and ask for the Coastguard.
6. Your catches and content
- Your catches, notes and photos stay yours. We claim no ownership.
- You give us permission to store them, show them back to you, show them to Crews you chose to share with, send a summary for AI analysis when you ask for insights, and — only if you agreed to catch sharing — include them in anonymous area statistics with the location blurred.
- You confirm you own what you upload, or have permission to use it.
- Nothing illegal, abusive, harassing, misleading or in breach of someone else's rights. Don't publish somebody else's private mark, or anything that would put a sensitive spot or a person at risk.
- We can remove content that breaks these rules and tell you why.
7. Marks and mark information
The marks, coordinates, ground and access descriptions, hazard notes, rigs, bait guidance, species timings, scoring and the app itself belong to us or our licensors. You get a personal, non-commercial right to use them for your own fishing while your access lasts.
You may not copy, republish, bulk-export, share as a dataset or sell our mark information, use it to build a competing product or dataset, or use it to run a paid guiding, charter or tuition business without a written agreement with us.
8. Premium and Circle purchases
- Premium gives you access to paid forecasts, marks and features while your subscription is active. It is a personal, non-transferable, non-exclusive licence to view — not a sale of the content.
- A paid Circle (mark pack) gives you a personal, non-transferable, non-exclusive, indefinite licence to view that pack in the app. You may not resell it, share it, publish it, or redistribute its marks by screenshot, export, message or any other means.
- When a licence ends: premium ends when the subscription lapses or when the current billing period ends after cancellation. Any licence can end if a payment is reversed or charged back, if the account is closed for breaking these terms, or if the app itself is permanently withdrawn. If we have to withdraw a Circle you have bought, we'll give you notice and refund a fair share of what you paid.
9. Immediate access and the 14-day right to change your mind
Premium and Circles are digital content supplied straight away, so at checkout you are asked to confirm two things:
- you want us to start supplying the content immediately, before the 14-day cancellation period ends; and
- you understand and expressly agree that once supply has started you lose the 14-day right to cancel and get a refund for that content.
If access has not yet started, the 14-day right still applies in full and you can cancel for a full refund. Your rights if the content turns out to be faulty, not as described or not supplied are unaffected either way.
10. Refunds
- If premium or a Circle is faulty, not as described or not supplied, tell us at privacy@myappdomain.com. We will fix or replace it, and if that isn't possible or takes too long you can have a price reduction or a refund.
- Refunds go back by the same payment method you used, without a fee, normally within 14 days of us agreeing it.
- If the app is unavailable for a long stretch through our fault, tell us and we'll credit or refund the time you lost.
- We may decline a refund where the claim is clearly not genuine, for example a Circle bulk-exported and then returned. We'll explain our reasons and you can dispute the decision.
11. Subscriptions and cancelling
- Prices are shown in pounds sterling and include VAT where it applies.
- A premium subscription renews automatically at the end of each period until you cancel. Cancel anytime — your subscription stays active until the end of the current billing period. Cancel from your account settings, or by emailing privacy@myappdomain.com — no phone call and no reason needed.
- Cancelling stops the next payment. We don't part-refund an unused stretch of a billing period you chose to cancel mid-way.
- We will email you before any price change and before any renewal at a new price, in good time so you can cancel first. If you don't want the new price, cancel before the renewal date.
- If we ever change a subscription so it no longer does substantially what you paid for, we'll tell you and you can cancel and get a refund of the unused time.
12. Creator and tackle-shop apps — independent sellers
Creators and tackle shops on this platform are independent businesses, not our agents, employees or partners. The creator or shop is the seller of their own guided sessions, products, click-and-collect orders, reports and events, and their contract for those is with you directly. Their consumer-law, description, safety, advertising and tax duties are theirs, and any complaint or refund request about those items goes to them first.
We provide and host the platform, take payments on their behalf and pass on their share. Where the law makes us responsible as a payment facilitator we will honour that, and we'll help if a seller stops responding. We can pause or remove an app that breaks these terms, misleads customers or exposes us to risk. If you run a branded app you are responsible for your branding, logos and images (you must hold the rights), your prices and descriptions, stock and availability, and every order you accept.
13. Payouts to creators and shops
- Card payments and payouts are handled by our payment provider. We don't see or store card details.
- Creator and shop shares are worked out from approved sales at the percentages agreed for that app. Creator apps are settled monthly; tackle-shop apps are settled daily. Payouts need completed, verified payment details.
- Refunds, chargebacks, reversals and fees can be deducted from later payouts. We can withhold or reverse earnings we reasonably believe come from fraud, fake orders or self-referral, and we'll explain why.
- Some tackle and shop links are affiliate links that may earn us or the app owner a commission. This is disclosed in the app.
14. What we're responsible for
We will supply the app and our services with reasonable care and skill, and we'll put right anything we get wrong within a reasonable time. We can't promise the app will always be available, uninterrupted or error-free, and we don't control the accuracy of third-party tide, weather, sea state or mapping data, or of anything on a site we link to.
Nothing in these terms limits our liability for death or personal injury caused by our negligence, for fraud, for breach of your statutory rights, or for anything else that can't be limited by law. Subject to that, we are not liable for losses that weren't reasonably foreseeable — lost profit, lost earnings, wasted trips, lost or damaged tackle or indirect losses — and our total liability to you is limited to the greater of the amount you paid us in the 12 months before the claim and £100.
15. Suspension, closure and fair notice
You can stop at any time and delete your account from Privacy & my data.
- Before we close or restrict an account for breaking these terms we will normally give you at least 14 days' written notice, say what the problem is, and give you a chance to put it right or reply.
- We can suspend an account immediately, without that notice, only where there is a serious risk — fraud, safety, illegal content, a security threat or a legal requirement — and we'll tell you the reason as soon as we can.
- You can challenge any suspension or closure by replying to the notice or emailing privacy@myappdomain.com. A person will review it, and if we got it wrong we'll restore the account and any paid time you lost.
- If we close your account and you have not broken these terms, we'll refund the unused part of anything you paid for.
After closure, anonymous area statistics stay in the shared data because they no longer identify you, and payment and earnings records are kept for 7 years because tax law requires it.
16. Your data (UK GDPR)
Your Company Ltd, trading as the operator of this app, is the data controller. We handle personal data only as set out in the Privacy notice: to run your account and give you what you paid for (contract), to keep accounts and money safe and to run the service (legitimate interests), to meet tax and accounting duties (legal obligation), and with your consent for location, catch sharing, AI insights and marketing.
You can see, download, correct or delete your data, pause or object to optional use, and withdraw any consent at any time from Privacy & my data. Withdrawing consent is free, takes effect straight away, is as easy as giving it, and does not affect your premium, Circles or any other paid access — only the optional feature it relates to stops. It does not undo processing that was lawful before you withdrew.
Data travels encrypted and is stored encrypted at rest. We keep activity records for 365 days and security records for 365 days. If a breach risks your rights we tell the Information Commissioner's Office within 72 hours and contact you without undue delay.
Complaining to the ICO: if you're unhappy with how we handle your data, tell us first at privacy@myappdomain.com, but you always have the right to complain to the Information Commissioner's Office — Wycliffe House, Water Lane, Wilmslow, Cheshire SK9 5AF, telephone 0303 123 1113, ico.org.uk. Complaining to the ICO costs nothing and doesn't affect any of your other rights, including your right to go to court. Full detail: Privacy notice.
17. General
- These terms are governed by the law of England and Wales and disputes go to its courts. If you live in Scotland or Northern Ireland you can also bring a claim in your local courts.
- These terms, with the Privacy notice, are the whole agreement between us.
- If any part can't be enforced, the rest still stands.
- Not enforcing something straight away doesn't mean we've given up the right to.
- If we transfer these terms: we may transfer this agreement to another business as part of a sale or reorganisation. We will tell you in advance, in writing, who is taking it on. Your rights stay the same, and if you'd rather not continue you can close your account and we'll refund the unused part of anything you've paid for.
- You may not transfer your account or these terms to anyone else.
- Contact us any time at privacy@myappdomain.com.
