          To use most features of the Service you must create an account. You

          responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your account

        <p>
          You must be at least 16 years old to create an account. If you are

        <h2>The Service and How It Works</h2>
        <p>
          TailTrails lets you record, save, and share your dog walks. When you
          understand the features, you also understand the responsibilities
          that come with them:
        </p>
        <ul>
          <li>
            <p>
              <strong>Walk recording.</strong> The Service uses your Device's
              GPS and motion sensors to record the route, distance, and pace of
              your walks, including in the background while the app is closed
              or your screen is locked. You grant permission for this through
              your Device settings and may withdraw it at any time. Recording
              requires a supported Device with location and motion capabilities
              and may be affected by signal quality, battery level, and
              background limits imposed by your operating system.
            </p>
          </li>
          <li>
            <p>
              <strong>Dog profiles and trail matching.</strong> You may create
              profiles for your dogs and provide traits such as dog tolerance,
              heat sensitivity, prey drive, nervousness around people, and
              off-leash reliability. The Service uses these traits to produce a
              trail match score. These scores are estimates only and are
              provided to help you decide; they are not a guarantee of safety
              or suitability for your dog.
            </p>
          </li>
          <li>
            <p>
              <strong>Trail discovery.</strong> The Service helps you discover
              and search trails. Trail information (including dog traffic, foot
              traffic, exposure, off-leash status, and wildlife) is provided as
              a general guide and may be incomplete, out of date, or inaccurate.
              Always assess conditions yourself before and during a walk.
            </p>
          </li>
          <li>
            <p>
              <strong>Groups, sharing, and visibility.</strong> You may create
              or join families and packs, invite other users by email, share
              trails with audiences you choose (private, family, pack, or
              public), and share joint ownership of a dog with co-owners. You
              are responsible for the Content you share and for respecting the
              permissions and privacy of others in your Groups.
            </p>
          </li>
          <li>
            <p>
              <strong>Social features.</strong> You may follow other users,
              view shared trails, and interact with public Content. Be mindful
              that anything you mark public can be viewed and shared by others.
            </p>
          </li>
          <li>
            <p>
              <strong>Collectibles.</strong> The Service may award digital
              collectibles for activity. These collectibles have no monetary
              value, are not transferable except where the Service expressly
              permits, and may be changed or discontinued at any time.
            </p>
          </li>
          <li>
            <p>
              <strong>Photos.</strong> With your permission, the Service can
              access your camera and photo library so you can take and attach
              photos during and after walks.
            </p>
          </li>
        </ul>
        <h2>Your Content and License</h2>
        <p>
          You retain ownership of the Content you submit to the Service. By
          submitting Content, you grant the Company a worldwide,
          non-exclusive, royalty-free, sublicensable, and transferable license
          to host, store, use, display, reproduce, and distribute that Content
          solely as necessary to operate, provide, improve, and promote the
          Service and its features, including sharing it with the audiences you
          select.
        </p>
        <p>You represent and warrant that your Content:</p>
        <ul>
          <li>Is accurate and belongs to you, or you have the right to share it.</li>
          <li>Does not infringe the rights of any person or animal, including
          privacy and image rights of people or dogs that appear in your
          photos.</li>
          <li>Complies with these Terms and all applicable laws.</li>
        </ul>
        <h2>Acceptable Use</h2>
        <p>You agree not to:</p>
        <ul>
          <li>Use the Service for any unlawful, harmful, or abusive purpose.</li>
          <li>Record or share trails on private property without permission, or
          encourage others to trespass or ignore local leash laws, trail rules,
          or access restrictions.</li>
          <li>Harass, threaten, or impersonate other users, or share someone's
          dog or personal information without consent.</li>
          <li>Upload Content that is false, misleading, defamatory, or that
          contains unsuitable or graphic material.</li>
          <li>Attempt to access, disrupt, or reverse-engineer the Service, its
          backend, or its APIs.</li>
          <li>Use bots, scrapers, or automated means to collect data from the
          Service.</li>
          <li>Interfere with the match scoring, location recording, or other
          Service calculations by submitting spoofed or manipulated data.</li>
        </ul>
        <h2>Safety and Responsibility</h2>
        <p>
          The Service is a recreational tool to make dog walks more fun. It is
          not a substitute for responsible dog ownership, professional training
          or veterinary advice, or your own judgment. You are solely
          responsible for the safety and behavior of yourself, your dog, and
          anyone you walk with. You walk at your own risk and assume full
          responsibility for any injury, loss, or damage arising from any walk
          you take or trail you follow.
        </p>
        <p>
          Match scores, trail details, route maps, distances, and pace are
          estimates and may be wrong. GPS and location data can be inaccurate,
          intermittent, or unavailable. Do not rely on the Service for
          navigation, emergencies, or critical decisions.
        </p>
        <h2>Subscriptions and Payments</h2>
        <p>
          Some features of the Service may require payment, such as
          subscriptions or in-app purchases. Where offered, purchases are
          processed by the platform provider (Apple App Store or Google Play)
          and are subject to their terms and pricing. Subscriptions
          automatically renew unless cancelled at least 24 hours before the end
          of the current billing period through your platform account
          settings. Fees are non-refundable except where required by law or by
          the platform provider's policy.
        </p>
        <h2>Intellectual Property</h2>
        <p>
          The Service, including its name, logo, design, software, collectible
          artwork, and non-user Content, is owned by the Company and protected
          by intellectual property laws. These Terms grant you no rights to the
          Company's intellectual property except the limited license needed to
          use the Service. "Tail Trails Club", "TailTrails", and related marks
          are trademarks of the Company.
        </p>
        <h2>Third-Party Services</h2>
        <p>
          The Service uses third-party services for authentication, maps,
          analytics, and notifications, and may contain links to third-party
          websites. The Company is not responsible for the practices or
          Content of third parties. Your use of third-party services is subject
          to their own terms and policies.
        </p>
        <h2>Disclaimers</h2>
        <p>
          The Service is provided "AS IS" and "AS AVAILABLE" without warranties
          of any kind, whether express or implied, including implied
          warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, or
          non-infringement. The Company does not warrant that the Service will
          be uninterrupted, error-free, secure, or that location recordings,
          match scores, or trail information will be accurate or reliable.
        </p>
        <h2>Limitation of Liability</h2>
        <p>
          To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, the Company and its
          affiliates, service providers, and licensors shall not be liable for

          damages, or for any loss of data, location recordings, photos, or
          Content, arising from your use of or inability to use the Service.
        </p>
        <p>
          To the extent permitted by law, the Company's total liability for any
          claim arising from or relating to the Service shall not exceed the
          amount, if any, you have paid to the Company for the Service in the
          twelve months preceding the claim.
        </p>
        <h2>Termination</h2>
        <p>
          You may stop using the Service and delete your account at any time.
          The Company may suspend or terminate your access to the Service at any
          time, with or without cause or notice, including if you violate these
          Terms. Upon termination, your right to use the Service ends, and
          your Content and Personal Data will be handled in accordance with our
          Privacy Policy.
        </p>
        <h2>Changes to These Terms</h2>
        <p>
          We may update these Terms from time to time. We will notify you of
          material changes by posting the new Terms on this page and, where
          appropriate, by email or a prominent notice in the Service, and
          update the "Last updated" date above. Your continued use of the
          Service after changes become effective constitutes acceptance of the
          revised Terms.
        </p>
        <h2>Governing Law and Disputes</h2>
        <p>
          These Terms are governed by the laws of Portugal, without regard to
          its conflict of law principles. The courts of Portugal shall have
          exclusive jurisdiction over any dispute arising out of or relating
          to these Terms or the Service, except where mandatory consumer law
          gives you a right to bring proceedings in your place of residence.
