Terms of Service

Last updated: April 6, 2026

1. Agreement to Terms

By accessing or using VeloVane (the "Service"), you agree to be bound by these Terms of Service ("Terms"). If you do not agree to these Terms, do not use the Service. These Terms constitute a legally binding agreement between you and VeloVane ("we," "our," or "us").

2. Description of Service

VeloVane is a cycling weather advisory application that provides personalized ride recommendations based on weather forecasts and your stated preferences. The Service includes a mobile application, website, push notifications, and related features.

VeloVane is an informational tool designed to help you make ride decisions. It is not a safety system, navigation tool, or replacement for your own judgment about weather conditions and riding safety.

3. Account Registration

To use certain features, you must create an account using your email address or a supported social login provider (Apple, Google). You are responsible for maintaining the security of your account credentials and for all activity that occurs under your account.

You agree to provide accurate, current, and complete information during registration and to update it as necessary. We reserve the right to suspend or terminate accounts that contain false or misleading information.

4. Acceptable Use

You agree not to:

  • Use the Service for any unlawful purpose or in violation of these Terms.
  • Attempt to gain unauthorized access to any part of the Service, other accounts, or systems connected to the Service.
  • Interfere with or disrupt the Service, servers, or networks connected to the Service.
  • Reverse engineer, decompile, or disassemble any part of the Service.
  • Use automated scripts, bots, or scrapers to access the Service or extract data.
  • Resell, redistribute, or sublicense any part of the Service without our written consent.

5. Intellectual Property

The Service, including its design, code, content, graphics, and branding, is owned by VeloVane and protected by copyright, trademark, and other intellectual property laws. You are granted a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable license to use the Service for personal, non-commercial purposes.

You retain ownership of any content you provide to the Service, such as ride preferences and feedback. By providing content, you grant us a license to use it to operate and improve the Service.

6. Weather Data & Accuracy

Weather data displayed in VeloVane is sourced from third-party providers, including Open-Meteo. While we strive for accuracy, weather forecasts are inherently uncertain and may not reflect actual conditions.

VeloVane's ride recommendations (go, wait, or skip) are suggestions based on forecast data and your preferences. They are not guarantees of safe or favorable riding conditions. Always use your own judgment and check current conditions before riding.

We are not responsible for decisions you make based on information provided by the Service, including decisions to ride or not ride in specific weather conditions.

7. Subscriptions & Payments

Certain features of the Service may require a paid subscription. Subscription pricing, billing cycles, and included features are described within the app at the time of purchase.

Subscriptions are billed through Apple's App Store. Payment processing, renewals, and cancellations are governed by Apple's terms. You can manage or cancel your subscription at any time through your device's subscription settings.

We may offer a free trial period. If you do not cancel before the trial ends, your subscription will begin and you will be charged.

8. Disclaimers

THE SERVICE IS PROVIDED "AS IS" AND "AS AVAILABLE" WITHOUT WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, AND NON-INFRINGEMENT.

We do not warrant that the Service will be uninterrupted, error-free, or free of harmful components. We do not warrant the accuracy, completeness, or reliability of any weather data, recommendations, or other content provided through the Service.

9. Limitation of Liability

TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, VELOVANE SHALL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO LOSS OF PROFITS, DATA, OR GOODWILL, ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO YOUR USE OF THE SERVICE.

OUR TOTAL LIABILITY FOR ALL CLAIMS RELATED TO THE SERVICE SHALL NOT EXCEED THE AMOUNT YOU PAID TO US IN THE TWELVE MONTHS PRECEDING THE CLAIM, OR $50, WHICHEVER IS GREATER.

10. Termination

You may stop using the Service and delete your account at any time from within the app. We may suspend or terminate your access to the Service at any time, with or without cause, with or without notice.

Upon termination, your right to use the Service ceases immediately. Provisions of these Terms that by their nature should survive termination will survive, including ownership, warranty disclaimers, and limitations of liability.

11. Governing Law

These Terms are governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the United States, without regard to conflict of law principles. Any disputes arising from these Terms or the Service shall be resolved in the courts of competent jurisdiction.

12. Changes to These Terms

We may revise these Terms at any time by posting the updated version on this page. If we make material changes, we will notify you through the app or by email. Your continued use of the Service after changes take effect constitutes acceptance of the revised Terms.
