These online terms are a product draft based on the current code and known features. The order or enterprise agreement for your account may contain additional terms.
01Agreement and account authority
These Terms govern access to and use of the Maritime Intelligence System (MIS) portal and related services by you and your organization. The Provider is the legal entity identified in your order, subscription, or account materials. If you use MIS for an organization, you confirm that you are authorized to accept these Terms for it. A signed order, subscription, or enterprise agreement controls where it conflicts with these general Terms.
02What the service does
MIS provides maritime fleet and vessel visibility, AIS data and history, voyage archive and playback, crew engagement tracking, weather and risk visualizations, alerts, account administration, integrations, and related analytics. The features available depend on the plan, configuration, data sources, and deployment selected. We may update or improve features over time, subject to applicable agreements and law.
03Decision support only; maritime limitations
MIS is an information and decision-support tool. It is not a navigation system, chart of record, statutory publication, emergency communications service, certified weather service, or substitute for a qualified master, navigator, safety management system, official notices, or professional judgment. Do not rely on MIS alone for vessel control, collision avoidance, route clearance, safety-of-life decisions, legal compliance, or emergency response.
AIS can be missing, delayed, inaccurate, spoofed, or unavailable. Vessel identity, voyage, weather, forecast, port, and risk information may be estimated, modeled, derived from third parties, or incomplete. Conditions and predictions change. You must independently verify critical information against authoritative, current sources and use proper onboard equipment and procedures.
04Customer data and responsibilities
You retain rights in data you provide, subject to the rights needed for us and our service providers to host, process, transmit, display, back up, and support it for your organization. We do not sell customer-provided AIS or crew data or disclose customer-supplied fleet AIS positions or crew records to other customers. Public or licensed AIS traffic can be visible to multiple customers as part of the service. You are responsible for having a lawful basis and necessary notices, consents, and permissions to submit personal, crew, vessel, and other data; for the accuracy and legality of data and instructions; for selecting authorized users; and for complying with maritime, employment, privacy, export, and other laws that apply to your use.
Use integrations and AI features only after reviewing their configuration and the relevant provider terms.
05Acceptable use and account security
You must keep credentials confidential, use reasonable security measures, promptly remove access when no longer needed, and notify us of suspected account compromise. You may not probe, disrupt, overload, reverse engineer, bypass security or access controls, introduce malicious code, misuse another person’s data, scrape or redistribute the service except as permitted, or use MIS unlawfully. You are responsible for activity under your accounts and for your organization’s devices and network.
06Third-party services and integrations
MIS may depend on or connect to AIS, weather, mapping, identity, AI, email, hosting, and payment providers. Their availability, data, and terms are controlled by those providers. Your use of a connected service may be subject to its separate terms, fees, and privacy practices. We are not responsible for changes or interruptions caused by a third party, but this does not limit any responsibility that cannot lawfully be limited.
07Availability, support, and changes
We aim to operate the service reliably, but do not guarantee a particular uptime, uninterrupted access, error-free operation, continuous data feed, or response time unless a signed agreement expressly provides one. Maintenance, connectivity, security events, force majeure, third-party dependencies, and circumstances outside reasonable control can interrupt service. Support channels and response commitments depend on the applicable plan or written agreement.
08Fees, suspension, and termination
Fees, renewal, cancellation, and plan limits are set out in the applicable subscription or order. You must pay charges when due. We may restrict or suspend access where reasonably necessary to address a security threat, unlawful use, material breach, non-payment, or risk to the service or other users, and will provide notice where reasonably practicable and legally permitted. Either party may terminate as stated in the applicable order or agreement. On termination, access ends and data handling follows the agreement and Privacy Notice, subject to lawful retention and backup cycles.
09Intellectual property
The service, software, design, and Provider materials are owned by the Provider or its licensors. We grant you a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable right to use the subscribed features during the subscription for your internal business purposes, subject to these Terms. No ownership is transferred. You may provide feedback, which we may use to improve the service without restriction, provided it does not identify you or disclose your confidential information.
10Disclaimers and limits of responsibility
To the extent permitted by law, MIS and third-party information are provided without a promise that every data point, output, forecast, recommendation, or feature will be accurate, complete, timely, available, secure, or fit for a particular decision. Nothing in these Terms excludes a warranty, duty, or liability that applicable law does not allow to be excluded.
To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, neither party is liable to the other for indirect, incidental, special, punitive, or consequential loss, or loss of profits, revenue, business, anticipated savings, goodwill, or data arising from use of the service. To the maximum extent permitted by law, the Provider’s aggregate liability arising from the service is limited to the fees paid or payable for the affected service during the 12 months before the event giving rise to the claim. These limits do not apply to liability that cannot lawfully be limited, or to any higher or different limit in a signed order or enterprise agreement.
11Indemnity
To the extent permitted by law, you are responsible for third-party claims arising from data or materials you submit, your unlawful use of MIS, or your material breach of these Terms, except to the extent caused by the Provider’s own breach, negligence, or misconduct. Any indemnity is subject to applicable law and the terms of a signed customer agreement.
12Law, disputes, and updates
The governing law and dispute forum stated in your order or enterprise agreement apply. If none is stated, the parties will first try in good faith to resolve a dispute through the contact details in the account materials; applicable law and competent courts will then determine the dispute. Nothing here removes mandatory rights or consumer protections. We may revise these Terms by publishing an updated version and effective date. Material changes will be notified where required by law or contract. Continued use after an effective change constitutes acceptance only to the extent permitted by applicable law.
This published text is general product information, not legal advice. The Provider should confirm its legal identity, jurisdictions, contracts, actual data retention, vendors, security practices, and regulatory duties before relying on this draft.
