Terms of Service

Loftmate is a software-as-a-service platform for pigeon fanciers that includes loft management, pigeon records, pedigree building, race logging, and a public loft page. By accessing or using the service you agree to these Terms of Service.

You must be at least 18 years old (or the age of majority in your jurisdiction) to use Loftmate. You agree to:

• Provide accurate information and keep it up to date.
• Keep your account credentials secure.
• Take responsibility for all activity on your account.

We may suspend or terminate your account if we reasonably believe you have violated these Terms or used the service fraudulently.

Loftmate offers a free tier and a paid Pro subscription billed monthly or annually. Payments are processed by Stripe. You may cancel at any time — your plan remains active until the end of the current billing period. We reserve the right to change pricing with reasonable notice.

You must not use Loftmate to:

• Post false, misleading, or deceptive information.
• Harass, threaten, or abuse other users.
• Attempt to gain unauthorised access to the platform or other users' accounts.
• Use the service in any way that violates applicable law or regulation.

You retain ownership of any content you upload to Loftmate, including photos, bird records, and pedigrees. By uploading content you grant Loftmate a worldwide, non-exclusive, royalty-free licence to host, store, and display it solely to operate and improve the service.

You can delete your data at any time via your account settings.

Loftmate and its logos, design, and software are the property of Loftmate. Nothing in these Terms grants you any rights in our intellectual property beyond what is necessary to use the service.

We may add, modify, or remove features at any time. We will try to give reasonable notice of significant changes that affect existing functionality.

We may update these Terms from time to time. If changes are material, we will notify you via the service or by other reasonable means. Continued use of Loftmate after changes take effect constitutes your acceptance of the updated Terms.

The service is provided on an "as is" and "as available" basis. To the maximum extent permitted by law, Loftmate disclaims all warranties, express or implied, including implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, and non-infringement.

To the maximum extent permitted by law:

• Loftmate will not be liable for indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages.
• Loftmate's total liability for any claim will not exceed the greater of (a) the fees you paid to Loftmate in the 3 months preceding the event or (b) £100.
• Nothing in these Terms limits liability that cannot be excluded under applicable law.

These Terms are governed by the laws of England and Wales. If you are a consumer living in Scotland or Northern Ireland, you may also bring proceedings in your local courts. Nothing in these Terms limits any rights you have under applicable consumer protection laws.
