1. Acceptance of Terms

By downloading, installing, or using the CycleBuddy application ("the App"), you agree to be bound by these Terms of Service ("Terms"). If you do not agree, do not use the App.

The App is operated by PG App Studios ("we", "us", or "our"). Contact: pgmetastudios@gmail.com

2. Eligibility

You must be at least 13 years old to use the App. By using the App, you represent that you meet this requirement. If you are under 18, you confirm you have the consent of a parent or legal guardian.

3. Your Account

You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your password and for all activity that occurs under your account.
You must provide accurate and truthful information when registering.
You may not create an account on behalf of another person or use someone else's account.
Notify us immediately at pgmetastudios@gmail.com if you suspect unauthorised access to your account.

4. Acceptable Use

You agree not to use the App to:

Post false, misleading, or fraudulent ride listings.
Harass, threaten, or harm other users.
Share content that is illegal, obscene, defamatory, or infringes third-party rights.
Attempt to gain unauthorised access to any part of the App or its infrastructure.
Use automated tools to scrape, crawl, or collect data from the App.
Impersonate any person or organisation.
Use the App for any commercial purpose without our prior written consent.

We reserve the right to suspend or terminate accounts that violate these rules.

5. Rides and User Content

You are responsible for rides you post. When you create a ride and invite others to join, you take responsibility for the accuracy of the information (location, distance, pace, date) and for communicating any changes to participants.

We are not a cycling organiser. CycleBuddy is a platform that connects cyclists. We do not organise, supervise, or take responsibility for any ride, route, or in-person meeting arranged through the App.

You retain ownership of content you post. By posting rides, messages, or other content, you grant PG App Studios a non-exclusive, royalty-free licence to display and distribute that content within the App for the purpose of providing the service.

6. Safety

Cycling carries inherent physical risks. By using the App:

You acknowledge that you participate in rides at your own risk.
You are responsible for your own safety and that of any minors in your care.
You should wear appropriate safety equipment including a helmet at all times.
Route plans generated by the AI planner are estimates based on the data you provide. Actual conditions (road surface, traffic, weather) may differ. Always use your own judgement on the road.
You should inform someone of your planned route before a solo or group ride.

PG App Studios is not liable for any injury, death, property damage, or other loss resulting from participation in rides arranged through the App.

7. Intellectual Property

All content in the App that is not user-generated — including the app design, code, logo, and text — is owned by PG App Studios and protected by copyright and other intellectual property laws. You may not copy, modify, distribute, or reverse engineer any part of the App without our written permission.

8. Disclaimer of Warranties

The App is provided "as is" and "as available" without warranties of any kind, express or implied. We do not warrant that the App will be uninterrupted, error-free, or free of viruses. We do not warrant the accuracy of route plans, distance calculations, calorie estimates, or any other generated content.

9. Limitation of Liability

To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, PG App Studios shall not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages — including loss of data, personal injury, or property damage — arising out of or related to your use of the App, even if we have been advised of the possibility of such damages.

Our total liability to you for any claim arising from your use of the App shall not exceed the amount you paid us in the twelve months preceding the claim (if any).

10. Termination

We may suspend or terminate your access to the App at any time, with or without notice, if we believe you have violated these Terms. You may delete your account at any time from Settings → Account → Delete Account.

Upon termination, your right to use the App ceases immediately.

11. Changes to These Terms

We may update these Terms from time to time. When we do, we will update the "Last updated" date at the top. Continued use of the App after changes constitutes your acceptance of the revised Terms.

12. Governing Law

These Terms are governed by the laws of the jurisdiction in which PG App Studios operates, without regard to conflict of law principles. Any disputes shall be resolved in the competent courts of that jurisdiction.
