Effective date: 28 August 2026 Last updated: 28 August 2026
These Terms of Use ("Terms") are an agreement between you and Devello ("we", "us") governing your use of the Fish Pilot mobile application ("the app").
By using the app you accept these Terms. If you do not accept them, do not use the app.
How we handle your data is described separately in our Privacy Policy at <https://fishpilot-dev.web.app/privacy>, which forms part of these Terms.
You must be at least 18 years old to use the app. If you use the app on behalf of an organisation, you confirm you are authorised to accept these Terms for it.
We grant you a personal, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable licence to use the app on devices you own or control, for your own non-commercial use, in accordance with these Terms and with the rules of the app store you obtained it from.
You may not: reverse-engineer, decompile or disassemble the app except where that right cannot lawfully be excluded; copy, resell, sublicense or redistribute it; remove or obscure any proprietary notice; use it to build a competing product; or access it by any automated means, including scraping our servers or scripting requests to them.
The app creates an anonymous account for you when you first open it. You may later link a Google account, an Apple account, or an email address and password.
You are responsible for keeping your sign-in credentials secure and for activity that happens under your account. Tell us promptly if you believe your account has been accessed without your permission.
Anonymous accounts are tied to the app installation. If you delete the app without first signing up, or lose the device, an anonymous account and the data in it cannot be recovered — we have no way to identify it as yours. Sign up if you want your catch log to survive a lost or replaced phone.
You may delete your account at any time from within the app. Deletion is permanent (see section 9).
Fish Pilot's output is an estimate. It is not a guarantee, a professional opinion, or a substitute for your own judgement.
Specifically:
You are responsible for your own safety and for compliance with the law. Fishing licences, seasons, size and bag limits, protected species, access rights and water safety are your responsibility to check with the relevant local authority. Weather and water conditions can change quickly and dangerously; do not use the app as a safety instrument.
"Your Content" means what you put into the app: catch records, notes, photographs, saved locations, profile details, and questions you ask the assistant.
You keep ownership of Your Content. You grant us a worldwide, non-exclusive, royalty-free licence to host, store, reproduce, adapt and transmit it only to the extent needed to operate the app for you — for example, storing your catch log, resizing a photograph, or sending a question to our AI provider to generate an answer.
If you choose to share a catch, you additionally grant us the licence needed to display that shared version to other users of the app. That licence covers only the shared version and only the fields that are published — see section 5 of the Privacy Policy for exactly which fields those are, and note that your personal notes are never among them. The licence for a shared catch ends when you set the catch back to private or delete it, save for copies already cached or held in backups for a reasonable period.
You confirm that you have the rights to Your Content, and that it does not infringe anyone else's rights or break any law. We may remove content that breaches these Terms.
You must not use the app to:
The app is free to download, and some features are available to everyone. The AI-powered features — fishing predictions, the AI assistant and photo fish identification — and saving catches to your log require a paid subscription (Pro). Which features are included in each tier is shown in the app.
You can delete your account from within the app. This permanently removes your profile, your catch log, your photographs, your saved locations, your shared catches, your notification settings, and your sign-in credentials.
Deletion cannot be undone, and we cannot restore a deleted account. Export or record anything you want to keep before you delete.
As noted above, deletion does not cancel a subscription, and our subscription provider retains its own record of purchases.
We may change, suspend or discontinue the app or any feature of it. We do not promise the app will be available without interruption or free of faults, and features that depend on third-party services (weather, mapping, AI, geocoding) may be degraded or unavailable when those services are.
We may update these Terms. For significant changes we will notify you in the app, and continuing to use it after a change means you accept the updated Terms.
The app, its design, its content (other than Your Content), its trademarks and its software are owned by us or our licensors and are protected by law. These Terms give you a licence to use the app, not any ownership of it.
The app includes third-party components, map data and imagery under their own licences, and displays the attributions those licences require. Do not remove those attributions.
The app relies on services operated by others, including Google, Apple, Mapbox, RevenueCat, Open-Meteo and OpenStreetMap contributors. We are not responsible for those services, and your use of them may be subject to their own terms.
To the fullest extent permitted by law, the app is provided "as is" and "as available", without warranties of any kind, express or implied, including implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, accuracy, and non-infringement.
Nothing in these Terms excludes or limits rights you have as a consumer that cannot lawfully be excluded or limited. In some jurisdictions, including within the EU and UK, statutory consumer guarantees apply regardless of this section.
To the fullest extent permitted by law, we are not liable for indirect, incidental, special, consequential or punitive damages, or for loss of profits, data, goodwill, or lost fishing opportunity, arising from your use of the app.
We are not liable for any loss, injury, fine, prosecution or penalty arising from reliance on a prediction, a species identification, an assistant answer, or any regulatory, licensing or safety information in the app. Those are estimates (section 5), and checking the law and the conditions is your responsibility.
Our total liability arising from these Terms is limited to the greater of the amount you paid us in the twelve months before the claim, or USD 50.
We do not exclude liability for death or personal injury caused by our negligence, for fraud, or for anything else that cannot lawfully be excluded.
You agree to indemnify us against claims, losses and reasonable costs arising from Your Content, your breach of these Terms, or your unlawful use of the app.
We may suspend or terminate your access if you breach these Terms, if we are required to by law, or if we discontinue the app. You may stop using the app and delete your account at any time. Sections 6, 11, 13, 14, 15 and 17 survive termination.
These Terms are governed by the laws of Türkiye, and disputes are subject to the courts of İstanbul, Türkiye.
If you are a consumer, nothing in this section removes any protection you have under the mandatory law of the country you live in, including any right to bring proceedings in your local courts.
These Terms are between you and us, not Apple. Apple is not responsible for the app or its content and has no obligation to provide support for it. Apple is not responsible for any claim that the app fails to conform to a legal or regulatory requirement, or for third-party claims that the app infringes intellectual property rights. Apple and its subsidiaries are third-party beneficiaries of these Terms and may enforce them against you. You confirm you are not located in a country subject to a US Government embargo or designated as terrorist-supporting, and that you are not on any US Government prohibited-party list.
The app is distributed through Google Play under Google's terms. Google is not a party to these Terms and is not responsible for the app.
If any provision of these Terms is held unenforceable, the rest remain in force. Our failure to enforce a provision is not a waiver of it. You may not assign these Terms; we may assign them in connection with a merger, acquisition or sale of assets. These Terms, with the Privacy Policy, are the entire agreement between you and us regarding the app.
