01

Agreeing to these terms

By using NimoSail you agree to these terms. If you don’t agree, please don’t use the app.

NimoSail is currently a testing version. Features may change, stop working or be removed, and there may be bugs.

02

Not a navigation or safety tool

NimoSail is a logbook, not a navigation aid. Never rely on it for navigation, passage planning, weather decisions or emergencies.

Positions, tracks, distances, maps and weather in the app may be wrong, delayed or missing. Maps are not official nautical charts. Always carry proper charts and safety equipment, check official forecasts, and follow the rules of the sea. The skipper is always responsible for the safety of the boat and crew.

03

Your account

  • Give a real email address and keep your password private.
  • You’re responsible for what happens under your account.
  • One account per person. Don’t use someone else’s account.
  • Your username must not pretend to be someone else or be offensive.
04

Your content

Your sails, photos, notes and profile belong to you.

So that the app can work, you allow us to store, copy and display your content: to you, on your devices, and to the friends you choose to share with. This permission ends when you delete the content or your account.

Only upload photos you have the right to use, and only add details about people who are happy to be included.

05

Sharing with friends

When you share a sail or plan with friends, they can see it in the app. We can’t stop them taking screenshots, so only share what you’re comfortable with. You can make a sail private again or remove a friend at any time.

06

Fair use

Please don’t:

  • post anything illegal, abusive, hateful or that invades someone’s privacy
  • harass other users or send unwanted friend requests
  • try to access other people’s data or get round the app’s security
  • copy, change, resell or reverse-engineer the app, or use it to build a competing product
  • overload or disrupt the service, for example with automated tools
07

Our app

The app, its code, design, graphics, and the NimoSail name and logo belong to Pete Jackson. You may use the app for your own sailing logbook. Everything else is reserved. See Licence & copyright in the app.

08

Other services

Maps come from Mapbox, OpenStreetMap and OpenSeaMap, and weather from Open-Meteo. We don’t control them and they may be inaccurate or unavailable.

09

Keep your own backup

We work hard to keep your logbook safe, but we can’t promise data will never be lost, especially during testing. Use Settings → Backup to File regularly for anything important.

10

Our responsibility

The app is provided “as is”, without guarantees that it will be accurate, available or free of errors.

As far as the law allows, we are not liable for any loss or damage from using the app, including decisions made at sea, lost data, or problems with other services. Nothing in these terms limits rights you have that the law says can’t be limited.

11

Ending your use

You can stop using the app at any time, and delete your account in Settings → Account → Delete account. We may suspend or close an account that breaks these terms, and we may end the service. If we do, we’ll give notice where we can, so you have time to save a backup.

12

Changes and law

We may update these terms. If the changes are important, we’ll tell you in the app first. These terms are governed by the laws of the State of Israel.
