Aeroscope

Terms of Service

Effective date: May 13, 2026  ·  aeroscope.app/terms

By using Aeroscope you agree to these terms. This is a citizen documentation tool — please use it responsibly and in compliance with applicable laws. We do not make claims about atmospheric activity; the evidence you capture speaks for itself.

1. Acceptance of Terms

By downloading, installing, or using the Aeroscope iOS application ("App") or visiting aeroscope.app ("Site"), you agree to be bound by these Terms of Service ("Terms"). If you do not agree, do not use the App or Site.

Aeroscope is operated by Adam Rahmlow ("we", "us", "our"). For questions contact hello@aeroscope.app.

2. What Aeroscope Is

Aeroscope is a precision sky documentation tool. It captures photographs with GPS coordinates, correlates nearby aircraft data, performs AI atmospheric analysis, and embeds C2PA cryptographic provenance into each record.

Aeroscope does not make atmospheric claims. The App presents data and analysis as-is. You are responsible for how you interpret, use, and share that information. No content in the App constitutes scientific, legal, or medical advice.

3. Eligibility

You must be at least 13 years of age to use Aeroscope. By using the App you represent that you meet this requirement. If you are under 18, you represent that a parent or legal guardian has reviewed and agreed to these Terms.

4. Your Account

You may create an account using an email address and password. You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your credentials and for all activity under your account. Notify us immediately at hello@aeroscope.app if you suspect unauthorised use.

We reserve the right to suspend or terminate accounts that violate these Terms.

5. Acceptable Use

You agree not to use Aeroscope to:

Zero tolerance for objectionable content and abusive users. Content that is sexually explicit, violent, hateful, threatening, or that harasses or targets any person is not allowed, and neither is abusive behaviour toward other users. Accounts that post it may be removed without notice.

You can report any post or comment from its ⋯ menu, and block any user so you no longer see their posts or comments. We review every report within 24 hours and remove content that breaks these Terms, along with the account that posted it where appropriate.

6. Content You Submit

You retain ownership of photographs and observations you submit ("Your Content"). By submitting content, you grant Aeroscope a worldwide, non-exclusive, royalty-free licence to store, display, and distribute Your Content within the App and on the Site, as necessary to operate the service.

Your observations are public by default. Location data is shown at approximately 1km precision in public views; exact GPS coordinates are stored privately and used only for chain-of-custody and flight correlation.

You represent that Your Content does not violate any third-party rights and that you have all necessary permissions to share it.

7. Intellectual Property

The Aeroscope name, logo, UI design, and all original content on the Site and App are owned by or licensed to us. These Terms do not grant you any right to use our trademarks, logos, or proprietary content without prior written consent.

8. Third-Party Data and Services

Aeroscope integrates third-party data sources including real-time aircraft position data, AI analysis via the Anthropic API, and cryptographic provenance via C2PA tooling. We are not responsible for the accuracy, availability, or completeness of third-party data.

Flight data is provided for informational purposes only.

9. Privacy

Your use of Aeroscope is also governed by our Privacy Policy, which is incorporated into these Terms by reference. Please read it carefully.

10. Disclaimers

THE APP AND SITE ARE 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.

We do not warrant that the App will be uninterrupted, error-free, or free of viruses. We do not make any representations about the accuracy or completeness of AI-generated analysis or third-party flight data.

11. Limitation of Liability

TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, AEROSCOPE AND ITS OPERATORS SHALL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES ARISING FROM YOUR USE OF OR INABILITY TO USE THE APP OR SITE, EVEN IF WE HAVE BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.

Our total liability to you for any claim arising from these Terms or your use of the App shall not exceed the greater of (a) the amount you paid us in the 12 months prior to the claim or (b) $10 USD.

12. Indemnification

You agree to indemnify and hold harmless Aeroscope and its operators from any claims, losses, damages, or expenses (including reasonable legal fees) arising from: (a) Your Content; (b) your use of the App; (c) your violation of these Terms; or (d) your violation of any third-party right.

13. Termination

You may stop using Aeroscope at any time. You may delete your account via the App or by contacting hello@aeroscope.app.

We may suspend or terminate your access at any time, with or without notice, if we believe you have violated these Terms or if required by law. Upon termination, your right to use the App ceases immediately. Sections 6, 7, 10, 11, and 12 survive termination.

14. Governing Law

These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of Oregon, USA, without regard to conflict of law principles. Any dispute arising from these Terms shall be subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of courts in Oregon, USA.

15. Changes to These Terms
