Terms of Service
Who we are
Mauzy Marine is run jointly by [KIPNETIC LEGAL NAME] and [SHEERR WEATHER LEGAL NAME]. In these terms, "we" and "us" mean both of them. "You" means the person using the service. "The group" means the co-op or fleet company you belong to. [LAWYER: confirm the legal names, entity types, and whether our liability is joint or several.]
What the service is
Mauzy Marine is a weather and fleet tool for fishing fleets. It has a phone app and a shore dashboard. It shows forecasts, warnings, condition reports from other boats and, if people choose to share it, boat positions.
Accounts and groups
- A fleet admin in your group invites you. You cannot join on your own.
- One person has one account. Do not share your sign-in.
- Keep your sign-in safe. Tell us at once if someone else may have it.
- You can belong to more than one group. Each group is kept separate.
Roles
Your group gives you a role: fleet admin, shore manager, skipper or observer. A role decides what you can do. A role never lets you see another person's exact position. Only that person's sharing mode does.
What you agree to do
Follow the Acceptable Use rules. They are part of these terms.
Privacy and your data
Our Privacy Policy says what we collect and why. The Data Ownership and Sharing Agreement says that you own your data and how your group may use it.
Decision support only
This service helps you make your own decisions. It is not the official forecast. Read the Decision-Support and Safety Disclaimer. By using the service you accept it.
"As is"
- The service comes "as is". It can be late, wrong or offline.
- It uses data from other providers. We do not control that data.
- We may change, pause or stop parts of the service.
Fees
Fees are set in the agreement we make with your group. You do not pay us directly during the pilot.
Who owns what
We own the software, the design and the name. You own your data, as the Data Ownership and Sharing Agreement says. You give us permission to use your data to run the service, and to use de-identified, combined data to improve forecasts.
Suspending or ending
You can stop using the service at any time. Your group's fleet admin can remove you. We may limit or suspend an account that breaks these terms or the Acceptable Use rules, or if we must for security or legal reasons. We will tell you why when we can. What happens to your data after that follows the Retention and Deletion Schedule.
Limits on our responsibility
We are responsible for losses we cause through our own negligence, and for anything the law does not allow us to limit. Apart from that, and as far as the law allows:
- we are not responsible for decisions you or anyone else make using the service;
- we are not responsible for losses that come from forecast or data errors, delays, or outages;
- our total responsibility to you for anything connected to the service is limited to [LIABILITY CAP: amount or basis to be set].
[LAWYER: confirm that this limit is enforceable in NL for a safety-related product, how it applies to a group agreement, and what consumer or negligence rules override it. Confirm the cap and any insurance.]
If you cause us a loss
If your misuse of the service, or your breach of these terms, leads to a claim against us, you agree to cover our reasonable costs for that claim, as far as the law allows. [LAWYER: confirm whether this indemnity is appropriate for individual users, or whether it should sit only in the group agreement.]
Law
These terms follow the laws of Newfoundland and Labrador and the federal laws of Canada that apply there. Disputes go to the courts of Newfoundland and Labrador. [LAWYER: confirm governing law, courts, any limitation periods, and whether a dispute process is needed first.]
Changes to these terms
When we change the terms we publish a new version and ask you to accept it again. You cannot keep using the app until you do.
