5. Crowdsourced Reports and User Responsibilities

5.1 Nature of crowdsourced content

bolo relies on reports and other content submitted by Users. These reports are crowdsourced and are not independently verified, moderated, or reviewed for accuracy or completeness before being made available through the Service, except as we may decide in our sole discretion.

You understand that the quality, accuracy, and reliability of such User-generated reports may vary and that you use and rely on them at your own risk.

5.2 Commitment to accurate and non-misleading data

By using the Service, you agree that:

• You will not intentionally submit false, inaccurate, or misleading reports or data.
• You will not fabricate events, incidents, locations, or other information.
• You will not impersonate any person or entity or misrepresent your affiliation with any person or entity.
• You will promptly correct or remove any content you have submitted that you later discover to be inaccurate or incomplete, where the Service provides such functionality.

Submitting knowingly false or misleading information is a violation of these Terms and may subject you to account suspension or termination and, in some cases, to legal liability.

5.3 No emergency, safety-critical, or professional use

The Service is not designed or intended for emergency response, safety-critical decision-making, or professional use where inaccurate or delayed information could lead to injury, loss, or damage.

You must not rely on the Service as the sole or primary source of information for making decisions that could impact your safety or the safety of others.

6. No Navigation or Turn-by-Turn Use

bolo is not a navigation application and must not be used for navigation of vehicles, vessels, aircraft, or persons, including but not limited to turn-by-turn guidance, routing, or any primary means of determining position or direction.

You acknowledge and agree that:

• The Service does not provide certified or authoritative navigation data.
• The Service is not a substitute for official government maps, nautical charts, aviation charts, road signage, or other official navigation resources.
• You remain solely responsible for your own navigation decisions and for complying with all applicable navigation, safety, and traffic laws and regulations.

We disclaim any liability for damages, losses, or injuries arising out of or related to any use of the Service for navigation or routing purposes.

7. Third-Party Services and Mapbox

The Service may integrate with or provide links to third-party services, content, or functionality, including mapping and location services provided by Mapbox.

7.1 Mapbox and mapping projections

The Service uses Mapbox for mapping, visualization, and related geospatial functionality. You acknowledge that:

• All map data and projections are subject to standard mapping projection errors, including positional inaccuracies, scale distortions, and incomplete or outdated information.
• Geographic features, points of interest, roads, boundaries, and other mapped elements may be inaccurate, misaligned, missing, or not up to date.

You must not rely on the maps or geospatial data provided through bolo as precise, authoritative, or complete, and you assume all risk associated with your use of such data.

7.2 Third-party terms

Your use of Mapbox and other third-party services through bolo may be subject to separate terms and conditions and privacy policies provided by those third parties.

We are not responsible for, and do not endorse, any third-party services, products, content, or terms, and you use them at your own risk.

8. Intellectual Property

8.1 Our content and rights

The Service, including all software, design, text, graphics, images, video, logos, trademarks, and other content, and all intellectual property rights therein, are owned by ProjaTec or its licensors.

Except as expressly permitted by these Terms, you may not copy, modify, distribute, sell, lease, reverse engineer, or create derivative works of the Service or any part of it.

You may download or view content from the Service solely for your personal, non-commercial use, and only to the extent permitted by these Terms.

8.2 User content and license

You retain any ownership rights you may have in the content (including reports, text, images, feedback, and other materials) you submit or upload to the Service (“User Content”).

By submitting User Content, you grant ProjaTec a worldwide, royalty-free, perpetual, irrevocable, transferable, and sublicensable license to use, host, store, reproduce, modify, create derivative works from, publish, display, and distribute your User Content in connection with operating, improving, and promoting the Service and our business.

If you provide feedback, ideas, or suggestions regarding the Service (“Feedback”), you acknowledge that we may use such Feedback without restriction and without any obligation to compensate you.

9. User Content Standards and Enforcement

You are solely responsible for User Content you submit and for all activity under your account.

You agree not to submit User Content that:

• Is unlawful, defamatory, harassing, hateful, discriminatory, obscene, or otherwise objectionable.
• Contains viruses, malware, or other harmful components.
• Infringes any copyright, trademark, privacy, publicity, or other rights.
• Contains spam, unsolicited advertising, or fraudulent schemes.
• Consists of false or misleading information, including fabricated events, locations, or reports.

We encourage Users to report objectionable, inaccurate or abusive content or behavior via report Thumbs up or Thumbs down or by emailing support@bolo.boats.

10. Indemnification

You agree to indemnify, defend, and hold harmless ProjaTec, its affiliates, service providers, and their respective officers, directors, employees, and agents from and against any claims, liabilities, damages, losses, and expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees) arising out of or related to:

• Your use of the Service.
• Your User Content.
• Your violation of these Terms or any applicable law or regulation.
• Your violation of any rights of a third party.

This indemnity obligation will survive any termination of your account or these Terms.

11. Disclaimers and Limitation of Liability

11.1 General disclaimers

The Service is provided on an “AS IS” and “AS AVAILABLE” basis, with all faults and without any warranties of any kind, whether express or implied, including warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, title, and non-infringement.

We do not warrant that the Service will be uninterrupted, secure, or error-free, or that defects will be corrected. We do not guarantee the accuracy, completeness, reliability, or timeliness of any content, including User Content and map data.

11.2 Crowdsourced reports and data

Because bolo relies on crowdsourced reports and third-party mapping data, information presented through the Service may be incomplete, inaccurate, delayed, or otherwise unreliable.

You acknowledge that you use the Service and rely on any information obtained through it solely at your own risk.

11.3 No navigation or safety guarantee

The Service is not a navigation tool and does not provide safety-critical information. We disclaim any liability for navigation errors, route decisions, delays, accidents, property damage, personal injury, or death arising out of or related to use of the Service, including any use for navigation or routing.

11.4 Limitation of liability

To the maximum extent permitted by law, in no event will ProjaTec, its affiliates, or their respective officers, directors, employees, or agents be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages, or for any loss of profits, data, or goodwill, arising out of or in connection with your access to or use of, or inability to access or use, the Service, whether based on warranty, contract, tort (including negligence), or any other legal theory, even if advised of the possibility of such damages.

To the extent permitted by law, our aggregate liability for any claims relating to the Service will not exceed the greater of (a) the total amount you paid us, if any, during the 12 months immediately preceding the event giving rise to the claim, or (b) USD $100.

Some jurisdictions do not allow certain exclusions or limitations of liability; in such cases, the above limitations will apply only to the extent permitted by applicable law.

12. Termination and Suspension

You may stop using the Service and, where applicable, may delete your account at any time through the in-app settings or by contacting support@bolo.boats.

We may, in our sole discretion and without notice, suspend or terminate your access to the Service or your account, in whole or in part, for any reason, including if we believe you have violated these Terms, created risk or possible legal exposure for us, or if we discontinue the Service.

Upon termination, your right to use the Service will immediately cease. Sections of these Terms that by their nature should survive termination (including, without limitation, intellectual property, indemnification, disclaimers, and limitations of liability) will continue to apply.

13. Governing Law and Dispute Resolution

These Terms and your use of the Service are governed by the laws of the State of Maryland, USA, without regard to its conflict of laws principles.

Any disputes arising out of or relating to these Terms or the Service will be resolved:

• First, by good-faith negotiation between you and ProjaTec; and
• If not resolved, then by the courts as specified below.

13.2 Courts

You and ProjaTec agree to submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of the state and federal courts located in Annapolis, MD for the resolution of any disputes arising out of or relating to these Terms or the Service.

14. Miscellaneous

If any provision of these Terms is held to be invalid or unenforceable, the remaining provisions will remain in full force and effect, and the invalid or unenforceable provision will be replaced with a valid, enforceable provision that most closely reflects the parties' original intent.

Our failure to enforce any right or provision of these Terms will not be deemed a waiver of such right or provision.

We may assign or transfer these Terms, in whole or in part, without restriction. You may not assign or transfer these Terms, or your rights or obligations under them, without our prior written consent.

We may update these Terms from time to time. If we make material changes, we will provide reasonable notice, such as by updating the “Last updated” date, sending an email, or displaying a notice in the Service.

16. EU Trader Status

If you are a resident of the European Union, you have the right to know whether you are dealing with a “trader” for the purposes of EU consumer protection laws and the EU Digital Services Act. For these purposes, a “trader” is generally understood to mean any natural or legal person who is acting for purposes relating to their trade, business, craft, or profession. ProjaTec provides the Service in the course of its business activities and therefore acts as atrader when offering the Service to consumers in the EU.

As a trader, ProjaTec provides the following contact and identification information, which is also made available through applicable app stores and marketplaces where required:

• Legal entity name: ProjaTec LLC
• Registered address: PO Box 3345, Annapolis, MD 21403
• Contact email: support@bolo.boats
• Contact telephone (if applicable): N/A
• Company or trade register number (if applicable): N/A
• VAT or other tax identification number (if applicable): N/A

Nothing in this section creates any additional warranty, obligation, or liability beyond those expressly set out in these Terms or required by mandatory provisions of applicable EU law. Where there is a conflict between these Terms and non-waivable rights granted to you under EU consumer law, those mandatory rights will prevail.
