1. Agreement to these terms
These Terms of Use (“Terms”) are a legal agreement between you and Milebound (“we,” “us,” or “our”), operated by its developer, Daniel Ordonez, governing your use of the Milebound iOS app and the milebound.app website (together, the “Service”). By downloading, accessing, or using the Service, you agree to these Terms. If you don't agree, don't use the Service.
2. Who can use Milebound
You must be at least 13 years old (or the minimum age of digital consent in your country) to use Milebound. By using it, you confirm that you meet that requirement and can form a binding contract.
3. What Milebound is — and what it isn't
Milebound lets you place circles on a map (a center point and a radius in miles) and notifies you when you cross or approach a boundary you set. It also shows distances and keeps a log of crossings. You decide where your circles are and how large they are.
Milebound is an awareness tool only. It is not a safety, emergency, navigation, security, or compliance service. It does not determine, interpret, or certify compliance with any law, regulation, or requirement — it simply tracks the boundaries you choose. Do not rely on it for safety-of-life situations or emergencies.
4. Accuracy and availability
Alerts and distances depend on your device's GPS, network conditions, signal, battery settings, and how iOS manages background apps — all of which can delay, prevent, or miss an alert. Treat all readings as approximate. We do not guarantee that the Service will be uninterrupted, timely, or error-free.
5. Your responsibilities
- Use the Service lawfully and safely, and follow the rules of any place you are.
- Never interact with the app while driving or doing anything that requires your full attention.
- Don't misuse the Service — for example, don't use it to harass, stalk, or track another person without their knowledge and consent, and don't attempt to disrupt, reverse-engineer, or circumvent the Service except as permitted by law.
6. License
Subject to these Terms, we grant you a personal, limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable license to use the Milebound app on Apple-branded devices that you own or control, as permitted by the App Store Terms of Service. We reserve all rights not expressly granted.
7. Subscriptions and payments (planned)
Milebound is planned to offer a free tier plus an optional paid upgrade, Milebound Pro. When it is available:
- Purchases are made through Apple's In-App Purchase and billed to your Apple Account. Pricing and what's included are shown in the app before you buy.
- Subscriptions renew automatically unless you cancel at least 24 hours before the end of the current period. Your Apple Account is charged for renewal within 24 hours before each period. Manage or cancel anytime in your Apple Account settings.
- Refunds are handled by Apple under its policies; we generally cannot issue refunds directly.
- We may change prices or features going forward; changes will not affect a period you have already paid for.
8. Your content and data
The places, radii, and logs you create are yours. Because the app stores them on your device, you control them — export or delete them at any time. You are responsible for keeping your own backups; deleting the app deletes its on-device data. Milebound Pro offers optional iCloud Backup, which saves a copy to your own iCloud for you to restore — it's optional and you manage it. See our Privacy Policy for how data is handled.
9. Intellectual property
Milebound — including its name, design, the app, the website, and their content — is owned by us and protected by intellectual-property laws. These Terms do not grant you any right to our trademarks or branding. Your data remains yours.
10. Third-party services
Milebound relies on third-party services, including Apple (maps, search, speech recognition, weather, the App Store, and payments), the map-data providers used for place and category search (OpenStreetMap, HERE, and Open Charge Map), and, on the website, Google Analytics and Hostinger. Your use of those features may be subject to the providers' own terms, and we are not responsible for third-party services.
11. Disclaimers
The Service is provided “as is” and “as available,” without warranties of any kind, whether express or implied, including merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, and non-infringement. We do not warrant that the Service will be accurate, reliable, available, or error-free.
12. Limitation of liability
To the fullest extent permitted by law, Milebound and its developer will not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages, or for any loss arising from your use of, reliance on, or inability to use the Service or its alerts. To the extent liability cannot be excluded, it is limited to the amount you paid us for the Service in the 12 months before the claim (which may be zero).
13. Indemnification
You agree to indemnify and hold harmless Milebound and its developer from any claims, damages, liabilities, and expenses arising out of your misuse of the Service or your violation of these Terms.
14. Apple App Store terms
These Terms are between you and us, not Apple, and Apple is not responsible for the app or its content. Apple has no obligation to provide support or to address any claims relating to the app. To the extent permitted by law, Apple and its subsidiaries are third-party beneficiaries of these Terms and may enforce them against you. Your use of the app must also comply with the App Store Terms of Service and Apple's standard Licensed Application End User License Agreement (EULA).
15. Termination
You may stop using the Service at any time by deleting the app. We may suspend or end the Service, or these Terms, if you misuse it or as needed to operate responsibly. Provisions that by their nature should survive — such as disclaimers, limitation of liability, indemnification, and intellectual property — will survive termination.
16. Changes to these terms
We may update these Terms as the Service evolves. We will post the current version here with a new date; continuing to use the Service after a change means you accept the updated Terms.
17. Governing law
These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of Florida, United States, without regard to its conflict-of-laws rules. To the extent a dispute is not subject to Apple's terms, you agree to the exclusive jurisdiction of the state and federal courts located in Pinellas County, Florida, except where applicable law gives you the right to bring claims elsewhere.
