  • Maintain the security of your account credentials
  • Accept responsibility for all activities under your account
  • Notify us immediately of any unauthorized use

4. Location Data and Privacy

MileAway can use location metadata from photos you choose to make available. By granting photo library access, you consent to:

  • On-device access to location metadata in selected photos
  • Processing of that metadata to determine countries visited

  • Use automated systems to manipulate your travel data

6. Accuracy of Travel Data

While we strive for accuracy, country and date information derived from photo metadata may not be perfect. We are not responsible for inaccuracies in travel data, missed countries, or incorrect records. The App is designed for entertainment and personal travel-history purposes.

7. Intellectual Property

The App and its content, features, and functionality are owned by MileAway and are protected by international copyright, trademark, and other intellectual property laws.

8. Termination

We may terminate or suspend your account and access to the App at our sole discretion, without prior notice, for conduct that we believe violates these Terms or is harmful to other users, us, or third parties.

9. Disclaimer of Warranties

The App is provided on an "as is" and "as available" basis. We make no warranties, expressed or implied, regarding the App's reliability, accuracy, or availability.

10. Limitation of Liability

In no event shall MileAway be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages, including lost profits, data, or business interruption.

11. Changes to Terms

We reserve the right to modify these Terms at any time. We will notify users of any material changes through the App or by email. Continued use of the App after changes constitutes acceptance of the new Terms.
