Terms of Service

Last updated: 8 March 2026

1. About the App

The Wainwright Companion is a mobile application for tracking completion of the 214 Wainwright fells in the English Lake District. These terms govern your use of the app and its features.

2. Acceptable Use

You agree to use the app and its social features responsibly. You must not:

• Share offensive, abusive, or illegal content through social features
• Impersonate other users or misrepresent your identity
• Attempt to interfere with the app’s services or other users’ data
• Use the app for any purpose other than its intended fell-walking and tracking functionality

3. Safety & Liability

Weather and navigation data are provided for informational purposes only. They should not be relied upon as your sole source of safety information when walking in the fells.

You are responsible for your own safety on the hills. Always:

• Check multiple weather sources before setting out
• Carry appropriate equipment, maps, and navigation tools
• Tell someone your route and expected return time
• Turn back if conditions deteriorate

The app is provided “as is” without warranty of any kind. We are not liable for any loss, injury, or damage arising from use of the app, its navigation features, or its weather data.

4. User Content

You retain ownership of all content you create in the app, including notes, photos, and completion records.

By sharing completions publicly through the app’s social features, you grant a limited, non-exclusive licence to display that content within the app to other users. You can revoke this by unsharing individual completions or disabling social sharing in Settings.

5. iCloud & Data

The app uses Apple iCloud (CloudKit) to sync your data across devices and to power social features. Your use of iCloud is subject to Apple’s own terms of service.

We are not responsible for data loss due to iCloud service interruptions or account issues. We recommend keeping your iCloud account in good standing.

6. Account Deletion

You can delete your account and all associated data at any time using the Delete Account option in Settings. This action is permanent and removes your data from both your device and iCloud.

7. Termination

We reserve the right to remove accounts or content that violate these terms, or to suspend access to social features for users who misuse them.

8. Changes to These Terms

We may update these terms from time to time. Changes will be reflected on this page with an updated date. Continued use of the app after changes constitutes acceptance of the updated terms.

9. Governing Law

These terms are governed by the laws of England and Wales.
