Terms of Use — FL Offline Fish Check
Version 1.0 — DRAFT Last updated: 2026-06-04
⚠️ This document is a draft written without professional legal advice. Before publishing to production, it must be reviewed by an attorney familiar with consumer law in the United States and, where applicable, in other countries where the app is distributed. The presence of a clause does not guarantee enforceability in every jurisdiction.
1. Acceptance of Terms
By installing, opening, or using the FL Offline Fish Check mobile application (the "App"), published by APPFLOW LLC ("APPFLOW LLC", "we", "our"), you accept these Terms of Use in full. If you do not agree, do not use the App.
2. Description of the Service
FL Offline Fish Check is a reference application that provides, offline, information about recreational fishing regulations in Florida (USA) state waters, computer-vision-assisted species identification features, and catch calculation tools.
We are not a regulatory authority. The information shown is a compilation of public sources (Florida FWC, SAFMC, GMFMC, and others) prepared on a best-effort basis, but may contain errors, be out of date, or fail to reflect recent changes in applicable regulations.
3. No Warranty
The App is provided "as is" and "as available", without warranties of any kind, express or implied, including but not limited to warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, or non-infringement.
In particular, we do not warrant that:
- Regulation information (seasons, minimum sizes, bag limits, closures, zones, required permits, etc.) is up to date, complete, or accurate.
- Species identifications suggested by the AI model are correct. The model is probabilistic and can be wrong, even at high confidence. Suggestions are guidance only and must always be visually verified by the user.
- The App will operate without interruption, errors, or data loss.
4. User Responsibility
You are solely responsible for:
a) Verifying current regulations at myfwc.com and/or with the relevant authorities before fishing, retaining any catch, or making any legal or financial decision based on the App.
b) Visually verifying any species identified by the App before retention. The App does not replace the fisher's knowledge or consultation of official guides.
c) Complying with all applicable laws, regulations, ordinances, and provisions of the location where you fish. This includes, without limitation, Florida FWC regulations, federal SAFMC and GMFMC regulations, tribal rules if applicable, and the environmental and hunting/fishing laws of your jurisdiction.
d) Making your own decisions about safety, navigation, equipment handling, and catch preservation.
5. Limitation of Liability
To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, APPFLOW LLC, its directors, employees, contractors, and partners shall not be liable for:
- Citations, fines, infractions, equipment seizure, suspension or revocation of fishing licenses, or any other administrative or criminal sanctions resulting from use of the App or the information shown in it.
- Personal injury, property damage, economic loss, or any direct, indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages arising from use or inability to use the App.
- Incorrect species identifications, retention of prohibited species, retention out of season, retention over minimum size or slot limits, or any other action the user has taken based on information shown by the App.
- Loss of data stored locally on the user's device.
APPFLOW LLC's aggregate liability under these Terms, for any cause, shall not exceed the amount paid by the user in the twelve (12) months preceding the event giving rise to the claim.
6. Indemnification
The user agrees to indemnify and hold APPFLOW LLC harmless from any claims, demands, losses, damages, liabilities, costs, or expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees) arising from:
a) The user's use of the App. b) Any breach of these Terms by the user. c) Any violation by the user of any law or third-party rights.
7. Subscriptions, Payments, and Refunds
FL Offline Fish Check offers a free version with limited features and a Premium subscription version, with monthly and yearly plans. Prices are displayed before purchase and may include free trial offers.
- Subscriptions are billed and managed through Google Play (and, in the future, Apple App Store), not directly by APPFLOW LLC.
- Subscriptions auto-renew at the end of each period until cancelled by the user.
- Cancellation must be performed in the Google Play or App Store account, not in the App. Cancellation prevents future renewals but does not refund the current period.
- Refund requests are handled per Google Play or App Store policy, not by APPFLOW LLC.
- APPFLOW LLC reserves the right to modify prices with reasonable notice. Changes do not affect periods already billed.
8. Intellectual Property
The App, its source code, AI model, designs, curated texts, and databases are owned by APPFLOW LLC or licensed to APPFLOW LLC. Copying, decompilation, reverse engineering, redistribution, sublicensing, or unauthorized commercial use of any part of the App is prohibited.
Some portions of textual content may be derived from open-licensed sources (e.g., Wikipedia under CC BY-SA 3.0). These cases are explicitly attributed in the App's "About" section.
9. Privacy
Personal data handling is governed by our Privacy Policy, available at
./privacy-en.html and accessible from the App's "About" section.
10. Changes to Terms
APPFLOW LLC may modify these Terms at any time. Significant changes will be notified inside the App or through the contact channels the user provided to Google Play or Apple App Store. Continued use of the App after notification constitutes acceptance of the new Terms.
11. Suspension and Termination
APPFLOW LLC may suspend or terminate a user's access to the App or to Premium features if:
a) The user breaches these Terms. b) The user abuses the App (e.g., reverse-engineering attempts, massive data scraping, or fraudulent payment use). c) Required by a competent authority.
12. Governing Law and Jurisdiction
These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of Florida, United States, without regard to its conflict-of-laws rules. Any dispute arising from or relating to these Terms or the App shall be submitted to the competent courts located in the county where APPFLOW LLC has its registered legal domicile in Florida, unless the consumer-protection law of the user's country of residence sets a different mandatory forum.
13. Severability
If any provision of these Terms is held invalid or unenforceable by a competent court, the remaining provisions shall remain in full effect.
