GPS OBD Tracker: Terms of service
These terms are between you and The Mains Technology (Pty) LTD ("we", "us"), the maker of GPS OBD Tracker ("the app"). By installing or using the app you agree to them. If you don't agree, don't use the app.
Using the app
We give you a personal, non-exclusive, non-transferable licence to use the app on devices you own or control, for your own purposes. You may not copy, resell, reverse engineer or redistribute the app, except where the law allows it.
You also agree to the terms of the store you got the app from: Apple's Licensed Application End User License Agreement (App Store and TestFlight) or the Google Play Terms of Service. If those terms and these conflict, the store's terms win for that store.
Drive safely
- Don't use your phone in a way that distracts you from driving. Set the app up before you drive, and follow the law where you are on phone use, mounting and hands-free use.
- Fit and remove an OBD adapter only when the car is parked, and don't let it or its cable get in the way of the pedals or controls. You use an OBD adapter at your own risk; we don't make or sell adapters.
- Alerts, reminders and warnings in the app are a help, not a safety system. Don't rely on them in place of your own attention, your car's instruments or proper servicing.
Accuracy
GPS, your phone's sensors and your car's OBD data can be wrong, late or missing. Distances, speeds, fuel use, costs, reminders and anything else the app works out are estimates. Check them before you rely on them, for example for tax, mileage claims, expenses, insurance or legal purposes.
Your data
Your trips and car data stay on your device (and, on iPhone, in your own iCloud account). How the app handles data is set out in our privacy policy. You're responsible for keeping your own backups and exports; we can't recover data for you.
Other services
Some features use services we don't run, such as Apple Maps, OpenFreeMap, iCloud, Cloudflare and your phone's address service. They're provided under their own terms, and we're not responsible for them being available or correct.
Test versions
Test builds (TestFlight, and Google Play testing tracks) are early versions. They may have bugs, change or stop working, and may lose data. Keep backups while testing.
No warranty
The app is provided "as is" and "as available". To the extent the law allows, we make no promises that it will be free of errors, work with every car or adapter, or be available at all times.
Limit of liability
To the extent the law allows, we aren't liable for any indirect or consequential loss, or for loss of data, income or profit, or for damage to your car, phone or adapter, arising from your use of the app. Our total liability to you is limited to the amount you paid for the app. Nothing in these terms limits rights you have under consumer protection law that can't be excluded.
Ending use
You can stop using the app at any time by removing it. We may change, suspend or stop offering the app.
Law
These terms are governed by the law of the Republic of South Africa, unless the law of the country you live in says otherwise.
Changes
If these terms change, we'll update this page and its date. Using the app after a change means you accept the new terms.
