The text below is the full and binding agreement.
1. PARTIES
These Terms of Service ("Agreement") are entered into between SilaWay ("Service Provider") and the natural person using the App ("User").
By installing or using the App you confirm that you have read, understood, and accepted this Agreement.
2. SERVICE DESCRIPTION
The App provides services including border crossing wait time estimates, maps and directions, an AI travel assistant (SilaAI — voice or text questions, place search and web search), weather, fuel price and toll information, live camera streams (sourced from third parties), and community chat.
A significant portion of the information is compiled from user contributions, open data sources, and third-party APIs. **The information is for informational purposes only and is not an official source.** Do not base your driving and travel decisions solely on this App; confirm with the relevant customs office and official authorities.
**AI assistant (SilaAI):** Route suggestions, place searches, travel advice and other AI outputs produced by SilaAI are generated automatically and may contain errors, gaps or out-of-date information. Do not base your driving, navigation or travel decisions **solely** on SilaAI output; verify with official maps, traffic apps and customs/authority announcements. SilaWay shall not be liable for damages arising from AI errors or omissions.
**Speed camera / radar alerts:** When enabled, the App may provide informational alerts for fixed, average-speed (section), red-light and mobile speed cameras (from a licensed database plus user-contributed live reports). These alerts are **for information only and do NOT replace your obligation to obey speed limits and traffic laws** — you remain responsible for your speed and compliance at all times, and no accuracy or completeness is guaranteed. Alerts are provided **in accordance with local law**: they are **not shown** in countries where prohibited (e.g. Germany, Switzerland, Belgium), and where only zone warnings are permitted (e.g. France) a **danger zone is shown instead of an exact location**. Do not interact with the App while driving. User reports must be truthful; misleading/fake radar reports are prohibited.
**Announcements and sponsored content:** The App may display dismissible announcements and sponsored content on the home screen, labelled "AD"/"REKLAM" or "ANNOUNCEMENT"/"DUYURU". Such content is served statically; **no personal data is shared with advertisers and no behavioural tracking is performed for its display**. Products, services and claims in third-party sponsored content are the responsibility of the respective advertiser; third-party sites/services you navigate to are governed by their own terms and privacy policies.
3. AGE RESTRICTION
You must be at least **18 years of age** to use the App. Users under 18 must not use the App.
4. ACCOUNT AND SECURITY
• You are responsible for the security of your account. If you suspect unauthorised use of your password or session, please notify [email protected] immediately.
• Guest and registered users are subject to different features and limits.
• Creating fake accounts, impersonating others, using automated bots, or selling/transferring accounts commercially is prohibited.
• Accounts created with Apple's "Private Email Relay" are **not considered fake**; this is an official Apple privacy feature.
5. ACCEPTABLE USE
You may not use the App to:
• Share illegal, harassing, hateful, discriminatory, or sexually exploitative content
• Send spam, persistent or unwanted messages to other users
• Bypass the App's security measures, send large amounts of automated requests, or misuse third-party APIs through the App
• Submit **intentionally misleading** reports (e.g. fake border wait times or radar/speed-camera reports)
• Reverse engineer the App outside the scope of EU Software Directive 2009/24/EC Articles 5-6, or attempt unauthorised access to the source code
Violations may result in your account being suspended or, depending on severity, terminated **without prior notice**. You may appeal a termination decision via [email protected].
6. USER CONTENT
You retain ownership of content (messages, images) you post in chat and other user-visible areas. However, you grant SilaWay a **non-exclusive, royalty-free, worldwide, sub-licensable license** to display, store, and transmit that content within the App. This license survives account deletion to the extent that copies may remain on other users' devices.
Content that violates community rules will be removed following user reports or moderation.
**ZERO TOLERANCE FOR OBJECTIONABLE CONTENT:** SilaWay enforces a **zero-tolerance** policy toward objectionable or abusive content and abusive users. Every user can **report (flag)** any message in chat and **block** other users — a blocked user's content is instantly removed from your feed and the developer is notified. Reported objectionable content is reviewed **within 24 hours**; if a violation is found, the content is removed and the user who posted it is ejected from the app (account suspended/terminated).
7. PAID PACK (SEASON PACK)
• The core features of the app are **FREE** (including routing, border wait information and 10 SilaAI questions per day; the daily allowance renews every day). One optional paid pack exists:
• **Season Pack (one-time purchase):** valid for **90 days** from the date of purchase and does **NOT auto-renew**. No charge is made when it expires; you may purchase a new pack if you wish.
• **Pack scope:** the Season Pack provides usage of up to **100 SilaAI questions per day**, voice mode and uninterrupted access on busy days. The store price in your local currency is shown at the time of purchase. **There is no free trial.**
• **Fair use:** the pack is for **personal use**. The stated daily limits (100 questions; a separate daily limit applies to voice usage) are enforced to prevent abuse and automated/bot usage. Access may be restricted if systematic abuse is detected.
• **Payment:** Payment is charged to your store account (Apple ID / Google account) upon confirmation of purchase. SilaWay does not see or store card/payment details.
• **Refunds:** SilaWay does not issue refunds for a pack period already started; refund requests are subject to the refund policy of the relevant store (Apple/Google).
• If the price or pack scope changes in the future, the change will be announced in-app before it takes effect and these Terms will be updated.
