You acknowledge that the Proprietor may or may not pre-screen or monitor Content, but that the Proprietor and its designees shall have the right (but not the obligation) in their sole discretion to pre-screen, monitor, refuse or remove any Content that is available via the Site. Without limiting the foregoing, the Proprietor and its designees shall have the right to remove any Content that violates the Terms or is otherwise objectionable.

The Site provides geographical mapping and routing services through Open Street Map ("OSM"). The route data provided to the Site and to you is based on an open source data set that can be freely edited by anyone. The Proprietor makes no representations about the accuracy of the data provided, whether travel over any particular route is legal and/or permissible, and you acknowledge that you should take appropriate steps to ensure the accuracy of the data before relying on it for any kind of activity.
Your use of either visual representations or data representations (such as GPX files or exports of data to third parties) from this site is entirely at your own risk. You agree that neither this Site nor Proprietor is responsible for any errors, omissions, or inaccuracies in the GPX files, nor for any harm that may result from their use. It is the responsibility of the user to verify the accuracy of such data and to use them in a safe and responsible manner.
To maximize route flexibility, the Site elicits routes from OSM through Mapbox that are designated by OSM contributors as permissible for travel by foot, bike, driving, or manually, as designated by the user plotting a route. Since the data from OSM is not always consistent with the legality or feasibility of traversing a particular route by the specified means, you acknowledge that you must consult with other sources to determine the suitability and legality of the route for the means of transport you intend to undertake, and otherwise obey all signage restricting any such mode of transport.
The Site may provide you with the option of restricting access to certain Content that you submit to the Site. If, upon submission of Content to the Site, you initially elect to restrict access to such Content, the site will restrict access to such Content in accordance with your election. However, if you do not elect to restrict access to your Content, or later change such designation to allow such Content to be made more freely available, the Site can not and does not guarantee restricted access to such Content.
The Site may provide, or third parties may provide, links to other Internet sites or resources. Because the Proprietor has no control over such sites and resources, you acknowledge and agree that the Proprietor is not responsible for the availability of such external sites or resources, and does not endorse and is not responsible or liable for any Content, advertising, products or other materials on or available from such sites or resources.
The Site functions as a venue for people to connect and organize physical activities such as running and biking. As a neutral facilitator, neither the Site nor the Proprietor is directly involved in the actual transactions, exchanges, or interactions between users of the Site. As a result, the Proprietor has no control over the truth, accuracy, quality, legality, or safety of postings made by users of the Site, and likewise has no control or responsibility regarding the conduct of the Site's users in the physical world. The Proprietor has no responsibility to confirm the identity of members, or to confirm or verify the qualifications, background, or abilities of users of the Site. In no event shall the Proprietor or the Proprietor's affiliates or partners be liable in any manner whatsoever for any losses or damages arising out of or relating to the conduct of you or anyone else in connection with the use of the Site. You shall at all time exercise common sense and good judgment when dealing with any user of the Site, as YOU ARE SOLELY RESPONSIBLE FOR YOUR INTERACTIONS WITH OTHER USERS.
The Site may provide you with the ability to send e-mails, post messages to user forums, enter chat rooms, speak via Internet voice connections or send similar messages and communications to third party service providers, advertisers, other users and/or the Proprietor. You agree to use communication methods available on the Site only to send communications and materials related to the subject matter for which the Proprietor provided the communication method, and you further agree that all such communications by you shall be deemed your Content and shall be subject to and governed by the Terms. By using any of the communications methods available on the Site, you acknowledge and agree that (a) all communications methods constitute public, and not private, means of communication between you and the other party or parties, (b) communications sent to or received from third party service providers, advertisers or other third parties are not be endorsed, sponsored or approved by the Proprietor (unless the Proprietor expressly states otherwise) and (c) communications are not pre-reviewed, post-reviewed, screened, archived or otherwise monitored by the Proprietor in any manner, though the Proprietor reserves the right to do so at any time at the Proprietor's sole discretion in accordance with the Terms. You agree that all notices, disclosures and other communications that we provide to you electronically shall satisfy any legal requirement that such communications be in writing.

In exchange for agreeing to these terms, the Proprietor grants you a personal, non-transferable and non-exclusive right and license to access and use the Site; provided that you do not (and do not allow any third party to) copy, modify, create a derivative work from, mine data from, reverse engineer, reverse assemble or otherwise attempt to discover any source code, sell, assign, sublicense, grant a security interest in or otherwise transfer any right in the Site.
