Copyright complaints (DMCA notice and takedown)

Garrett Makes It, LLC respects the intellectual property rights of others. Per the DMCA, we will respond expeditiously to claims of copyright infringement on the Service if submitted to our Copyright Agent as described below. Upon receipt of a notice alleging copyright infringement, we will take whatever action we deem appropriate within our sole discretion, including removal of the allegedly infringing materials and termination of access for repeat infringers of copyright-protected content.

If you believe that your intellectual property rights have been violated by us or by a third party who has uploaded materials to the Service, please provide the following information to the designated Copyright Agent listed below: (1) a description of the copyrighted work or other intellectual property that you claim has been infringed; (2) a description of where the material that you claim is infringing is located on the Service; (3) an address, telephone number, and email address where we can contact you and, if different, an email address where the alleged infringing party, if not us, can contact you; (4) a statement that you have a good-faith belief that the use is not authorized by the copyright owner or other intellectual property rights owner, by its agent, or by law; (5) a statement by you, under penalty of perjury, that the information in your notice is accurate and that you are the copyright or intellectual property owner or are authorized to act on the owner's behalf; and (6) your electronic or physical signature.

Garrett Makes It, LLC may request additional information before removing any allegedly infringing material. In the event we remove the allegedly infringing materials, we will immediately notify the person responsible for posting such materials that we removed or disabled access to the materials. We may also provide the responsible person with your email address so that the person may respond to your allegations.

Pursuant to 17 U.S.C. § 512(c), Garrett Makes It, LLC's designated Copyright Agent is Jonathan Bailey, CopyByte, 3157 Gentilly Blvd, Suite # 2254, New Orleans, LA 70122. Phone: 1-504-356-4555. Email: gmi-dmca@copybyte.com (please put "DMCA Notice: AdventureOS" in the subject line).

Counter-notification: if your content was removed or disabled and you believe this was a mistake or misidentification, you may send our designated agent a counter-notice that includes: (1) your physical or electronic signature; (2) identification of the material that was removed and the location where it appeared before removal; (3) a statement, under penalty of perjury, that you have a good-faith belief the material was removed as a result of mistake or misidentification; and (4) your name, address, and telephone number, together with a statement that you consent to the jurisdiction of the federal court for the judicial district in which your address is located (or, if outside the United States, any judicial district in which we may be found) and that you will accept service of process from the person who submitted the original notice or their agent. Unless we first receive notice that the original complainant has filed a court action seeking to restrain the responsible person from infringing activity, we will restore the removed material not less than 10 nor more than 14 business days after receiving your counter-notice, as provided by 17 U.S.C. § 512(g)(2)(C).

Repeat infringers: we will, in appropriate circumstances, disable or terminate the accounts of users who are determined to be repeat infringers. Submitting a materially false notice or counter-notice may expose you to liability for damages under 17 U.S.C. § 512(f).

Assumption of risk

AdventureOS is a record-keeping and planning tool. It is not a guide, an instructor, a dispatcher, or a safety service, and nothing in it — a route, a location, a difficulty grade, a weather reading, a checklist, a maintenance interval, or any other content — is advice that an activity is safe for you to undertake.

The activities this product is built around carry inherent risk of serious injury and death: climbing and mountaineering, aviation, boating and other time on the water, hunting and the handling of firearms, off-road and backcountry travel, snow sports, and combat sports. You are solely responsible for deciding whether you are trained, equipped, permitted, and fit enough for an activity, for the conditions you go out in, and for the people you take with you. You assume those risks yourself, and you agree that you do not rely on AdventureOS in making those decisions.

Content in AdventureOS may be wrong, stale, or incomplete. Locations, routes, and conditions are logged by members and by third-party sources, and neither we nor those sources verify them. Weather and elevation come from Open-Meteo on a best-effort basis, severe-weather alerts are best-effort and never guaranteed to reach you, and maintenance reminders track what you entered rather than what your equipment actually needs. Verify anything safety-critical against a primary source, carry the means to get yourself out, and do not depend on this app or on having a signal.

To the fullest extent permitted by law, you release AdventureOS, its owners, and its staff from any claim arising out of your participation in the activities this product is built around, other than a claim arising from something AdventureOS itself did or failed to do — this release is about the activity, not about the software.

Where the law does not permit an assumption of risk or a release this broad, this section applies to the fullest extent it does permit, and the rest of these Terms remains in force.

Service availability

We aim for high availability but make no specific uptime guarantees during v1. Plan accordingly for safety-critical use — do not rely on the app to recall service records mid-adventure; keep a paper backup.

Changes

We may update these terms. Material changes get an in-app notice, and continued use after a change means acceptance.

Liability

AdventureOS is provided as-is. We are not liable for indirect, incidental, or consequential damages arising from your use of the service or from outdoor activities you log in it.

To the extent liability is not excluded above or by the Assumption of risk section, our total liability to you for any claim arising from these Terms or your use of AdventureOS is limited to the greater of the amount you paid us in the 12 months before the claim arose, or $100.

Nothing in these Terms limits liability that cannot be limited under applicable law.
