Draft template — not for publication.

This text has not been reviewed by a lawyer and is not legal advice. Every placeholder in [BRACKETS] must be completed, and the whole document reviewed by qualified counsel, before it is published.

These terms are an agreement between you and [COMPANY LEGAL NAME] (“we”, “us”) about your use of the Pathway apps for iPhone and Android and this website. By using Pathway, you agree to them.

Who can use Pathway

You must be at least [MINIMUM AGE] to use Pathway. [REVIEW: age requirements per country.]

Your account

Keep your account details accurate and your sign-in credentials secure. You are responsible for activity on your account. Tell us at [SUPPORT EMAIL] if you think someone else has access to it.

Your content

You keep ownership of the posts, photos, trips and other content you add. You choose who can see each post and trip.

To run the service, you give [COMPANY LEGAL NAME] permission to store, process and display your content to the audience you choose. [REVIEW: scope and duration of this licence.]

Community rules

Don’t use Pathway to:

  • Post anything illegal, or content you don’t have the right to share.

Reports and moderation

You can report posts and profiles in the app. We may remove content or restrict accounts that break these terms. [REVIEW: notice and appeal process.]

Shared trips

Forecasts, sun times and routes

Weather forecasts, sun times, routes, travel times and suggestions come from third-party providers or calculations and can be wrong or out of date. Estimates are labeled in the app. Check local conditions and official sources before relying on them, especially where safety is involved. [REVIEW: final wording.]

Third-party services

Pathway relies on services such as maps and weather providers, whose own terms may apply. [REVIEW: list and link the applicable terms.]

App stores

If you download Pathway from the App Store or Google Play, that store’s terms also apply. [REVIEW: include the terms Apple requires, or adopt Apple’s standard licensed application end user licence agreement.]

Ending your use

You can stop using Pathway and delete your account at any time in Settings. We may suspend or end access for serious or repeated breaches of these terms. [REVIEW: notice requirements.]
