Terms of Use

These Terms of Use ("Terms") are a binding agreement between you and Wayline ("Wayline," "we," "us"). They govern your use of the Wayline iOS application, the usewayline.com website, and any related services (together, the "Service"). By installing, accessing, or using the Service, you agree to these Terms and to the Privacy Policy. If you do not agree, do not use the Service.

Please read Section 12 carefully. It requires disputes to be resolved by binding individual arbitration and waives your right to a jury trial and to participate in a class action, with an option to opt out within 30 days.

1. Eligibility

You must be at least 18 years old, or the age of legal majority where you live, to agree to these Terms. If you are between 13 and 18, you may use the Service only with the consent and supervision of a parent or legal guardian who agrees to be bound by these Terms on your behalf. The Service is not directed to children under 13, and they may not use it.

2. Beta software

Wayline is currently distributed as a beta through Apple TestFlight. Beta software is by nature unfinished. Features may change, break, or disappear between builds. Routes, arrival times, place details, and other outputs may be wrong. Data you store in the app (saved places, collections, trip history) may be lost at any time. We have no obligation to provide support, updates, or any particular feature, and we may suspend or end the beta at any time without notice.

3. Safety and assumption of risk

Wayline is an informational aid. It is not a substitute for your own eyes, judgment, or knowledge of local conditions, and it is not a safety device.

YOU USE THE SERVICE AT YOUR OWN RISK. TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, YOU ASSUME ALL RISK ARISING FROM YOUR TRAVEL AND MOVEMENT WHILE USING THE SERVICE, INCLUDING THE RISK OF PERSONAL INJURY, DEATH, OR PROPERTY DAMAGE.

4. License

Subject to these Terms, we grant you a personal, limited, revocable, non-exclusive, non-transferable license to install and use the app on Apple-branded devices that you own or control, as permitted by the Apple Media Services Terms and Conditions (the "Usage Rules"). We do not sell the app to you; we license it.

5. Acceptable use

You agree not to:

We may suspend or terminate your access at any time, with or without notice, if we believe you have violated these Terms or to protect the Service or its users.

6. Third-party services and content

The Service depends on data and services from third parties, including Apple Maps and WeatherKit, Google Places, Mapbox, OpenStreetMap, ElevenLabs, Anthropic, and PostHog. Their content belongs to them and is used under their terms. We do not control these services and are not responsible for their accuracy, availability, or conduct. Place details, hours, transit data, and weather may be wrong or stale. Always verify time-sensitive information before acting on it.

7. AI-generated content

Some features, including Ask AI, use artificial intelligence to interpret your requests and to generate suggestions and descriptions. AI output can be incorrect, incomplete, or misleading, and may describe places inaccurately. AI suggestions are not endorsements or recommendations that a place or route is safe, legal, or suitable. Verify before you rely.

8. Your content and feedback

You keep ownership of content you create in the app. If you send us feedback, ideas, bug reports, or suggestions (including through TestFlight), you grant us a perpetual, irrevocable, worldwide, royalty-free license to use them for any purpose without compensation or attribution, and you represent that you have the right to do so.

9. Intellectual property

The Wayline name, logo, wordmark, app design, voice prompts, and underlying code are owned by Wayline and protected by intellectual-property laws. Except for the limited license in Section 4, no rights are granted to you. Third-party content (maps, place photos, OSM data) is owned by its respective providers.

10. Disclaimer of warranties

TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, THE SERVICE IS PROVIDED "AS IS" AND "AS AVAILABLE," WITH ALL FAULTS AND WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND. WE DISCLAIM ALL WARRANTIES, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, TITLE, NON-INFRINGEMENT, QUIET ENJOYMENT, ACCURACY, AND ANY WARRANTIES ARISING FROM COURSE OF DEALING OR USAGE OF TRADE. WE DO NOT WARRANT THAT THE SERVICE WILL BE UNINTERRUPTED, SECURE, OR ERROR-FREE, THAT DEFECTS WILL BE CORRECTED, OR THAT ANY ROUTE, PLACE, TIME, OR OTHER OUTPUT WILL BE ACCURATE OR RELIABLE. SOME JURISDICTIONS DO NOT ALLOW THE EXCLUSION OF IMPLIED WARRANTIES, SO SOME OF THE ABOVE MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU.

11. Limitation of liability

TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW: (A) IN NO EVENT WILL WAYLINE, ITS DEVELOPER, OR ITS SUPPLIERS BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, EXEMPLARY, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, OR FOR ANY LOSS OF PROFITS, DATA, GOODWILL, OR TIME, OR FOR PERSONAL INJURY, DEATH, OR PROPERTY DAMAGE, ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO THE SERVICE OR THESE TERMS, WHETHER BASED ON WARRANTY, CONTRACT, TORT (INCLUDING NEGLIGENCE), PRODUCT LIABILITY, OR ANY OTHER THEORY, EVEN IF WE HAVE BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES; AND (B) OUR TOTAL AGGREGATE LIABILITY FOR ALL CLAIMS RELATING TO THE SERVICE WILL NOT EXCEED THE GREATER OF FIFTY U.S. DOLLARS (US $50) OR THE AMOUNT YOU PAID US FOR THE SERVICE IN THE TWELVE MONTHS BEFORE THE CLAIM AROSE.

SOME JURISDICTIONS DO NOT ALLOW THE EXCLUSION OR LIMITATION OF CERTAIN DAMAGES, SO SOME OF THE ABOVE MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU. IN THOSE JURISDICTIONS, OUR LIABILITY IS LIMITED TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW. THE LIMITATIONS IN THIS SECTION ARE A FUNDAMENTAL BASIS OF THE BARGAIN BETWEEN YOU AND US, AND APPLY EVEN IF A REMEDY FAILS OF ITS ESSENTIAL PURPOSE.

12. Dispute resolution: arbitration and class-action waiver

Informal resolution first. Before filing a claim, you agree to email slimcreativelab@gmail.com with a description of the dispute and give us 60 days to try to resolve it with you informally.

Binding arbitration. If we cannot resolve it informally, any dispute arising out of or relating to the Service or these Terms will be resolved by binding individual arbitration administered by the American Arbitration Association under its Consumer Arbitration Rules, rather than in court. The Federal Arbitration Act governs this section. Judgment on the award may be entered in any court with jurisdiction.

Exceptions. Either party may bring an individual claim in small-claims court, and either party may seek injunctive relief in court for infringement or misuse of intellectual property.

Class-action and jury waiver. TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, YOU AND WAYLINE EACH WAIVE THE RIGHT TO A JURY TRIAL AND THE RIGHT TO PARTICIPATE IN A CLASS, COLLECTIVE, OR REPRESENTATIVE ACTION. DISPUTES MAY BE BROUGHT ONLY IN AN INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY.

Opt-out. You may opt out of this arbitration agreement by emailing slimcreativelab@gmail.com with the subject "Arbitration opt-out" within 30 days of first accepting these Terms. Opting out does not affect any other part of these Terms.

Severability of this section. If the class-action waiver is found unenforceable as to a particular claim, that claim (and only that claim) must proceed in court, and the rest of this section remains in effect.

13. Indemnification

To the maximum extent permitted by law, you agree to defend, indemnify, and hold harmless Wayline and its developer from any claims, damages, liabilities, and expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees) arising out of your use or misuse of the Service, your violation of these Terms or of any law, or your violation of any third party's rights.

14. Apple-specific terms

These Terms are between you and Wayline only, not with Apple Inc. ("Apple"). Apple is not responsible for the Service or its content, has no obligation to provide maintenance or support, and has no warranty obligation except that, if the app fails to conform to an applicable warranty, you may notify Apple and Apple will refund any purchase price you paid for the app. Apple is not responsible for addressing any claims relating to the app, including product-liability claims, claims that the app fails to conform to legal or regulatory requirements, consumer-protection claims, and intellectual-property claims. You represent that you are not located in a country subject to a U.S. Government embargo or designated as a "terrorist supporting" country, and that you are not on any U.S. Government list of prohibited or restricted parties. Apple and its subsidiaries are third-party beneficiaries of these Terms and may enforce them against you.

15. Governing law

These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of New York, without regard to conflict-of-law rules, except that the Federal Arbitration Act governs Section 12. For any dispute not subject to arbitration, you and Wayline consent to the exclusive jurisdiction of the state and federal courts located in New York County, New York.

16. Changes to these Terms

We may update these Terms from time to time. The "Last updated" date below reflects the current version. For material changes we will take reasonable steps to notify you, such as a notice in the app or on this page. Your continued use of the Service after changes take effect means you accept the updated Terms. If you do not agree, stop using the Service and delete the app.

17. General

These Terms, together with the Privacy Policy, are the entire agreement between you and Wayline about the Service. If any provision is found unenforceable, it will be modified to the minimum extent necessary and the rest will remain in effect. Our failure to enforce a provision is not a waiver. You may not assign these Terms; we may assign them in connection with a merger, acquisition, or sale of assets. Sections that by their nature should survive termination (including Sections 3, 8 through 13, 15, and 17) survive.
