Terms of Use

Last updated: July 7, 2026

These Terms of Use ("Terms") govern your use of the Trailtrace iPhone application (the "App") and the website at trailtrace.alpinelake.systems (the "Site"), each provided by Alpine Lake Systems LLC ("Alpine Lake Systems," "we," "us," or "our"). By downloading, accessing, or using the App or the Site, you agree to these Terms. If you do not agree, do not use the App or the Site.

1. License

Subject to these Terms, we grant you a personal, limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable license to use the App on Apple-branded devices that you own or control, and to use the Site, for your own personal, non-commercial purposes. You may not copy, modify, distribute, sell, lease, reverse engineer, or attempt to extract the source code of the App or Site except to the extent this restriction is prohibited by applicable law.

2. Safety — use good judgment

Your safety is your responsibility. Trailtrace is a fitness and navigation aid, not a safety device. Always be aware of your surroundings, obey all traffic laws and signals, and do not operate the App in a way that distracts you while running, walking, cycling, or otherwise moving. Do not use the App where prohibited. Consult a physician before beginning any exercise program. You assume all risks associated with your activities.

3. Accuracy of measurements

Distance, pace, speed, routes, and other measurements are estimates derived from your device's GPS and sensors and may be inaccurate or incomplete due to signal conditions, hardware limitations, and other factors. Do not rely on them for any purpose requiring precision, including navigation in hazardous conditions, medical decisions, or competitive results.

4. Your content and data

Your activity data is stored on your device and, if you choose, in your own iCloud account. You are solely responsible for maintaining backups of your data. We do not store your activity data and cannot recover it for you if it is lost.

5. Third-party services

The App and Site rely on third-party services including Apple iCloud/CloudKit and the Google Maps Platform. Your use of those services is subject to their respective terms and policies. We are not responsible for third-party services and disclaim all liability arising from them.

6. Disclaimer of warranties

THE APP AND SITE ARE PROVIDED "AS IS" AND "AS AVAILABLE," WITHOUT WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, WHETHER EXPRESS, IMPLIED, OR STATUTORY, INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION ANY IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, TITLE, ACCURACY, AND NON-INFRINGEMENT. WE DO NOT WARRANT THAT THE APP OR SITE WILL BE UNINTERRUPTED, ERROR-FREE, SECURE, OR FREE OF HARMFUL COMPONENTS, OR THAT ANY DATA WILL BE ACCURATE OR PRESERVED. Some jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion of certain warranties, so some of the above may not apply to you.

7. Limitation of liability

TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, IN NO EVENT WILL ALPINE LAKE SYSTEMS LLC OR ITS MEMBERS, OFFICERS, EMPLOYEES, OR AGENTS BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, EXEMPLARY, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, OR FOR ANY LOSS OF PROFITS, DATA, GOODWILL, OR OTHER INTANGIBLE LOSSES, OR FOR ANY PERSONAL INJURY OR PROPERTY DAMAGE, ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO YOUR USE OF (OR INABILITY TO USE) THE APP OR SITE, WHETHER BASED ON WARRANTY, CONTRACT, TORT (INCLUDING NEGLIGENCE), OR ANY OTHER LEGAL THEORY, EVEN IF WE HAVE BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES. TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, OUR TOTAL AGGREGATE LIABILITY FOR ALL CLAIMS RELATING TO THE APP OR SITE WILL NOT EXCEED THE GREATER OF THE AMOUNT YOU PAID US, IF ANY, FOR THE APP IN THE TWELVE MONTHS PRECEDING THE CLAIM, OR FIVE U.S. DOLLARS (US$5.00).

8. Indemnification

You agree to indemnify, defend, and hold harmless Alpine Lake Systems LLC and its members, officers, employees, and agents from and against any claims, liabilities, damages, losses, and expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees) arising out of or in any way connected with your use of the App or Site or your violation of these Terms or applicable law.

9. Apple

The App is made available through the Apple App Store. These Terms are between you and Alpine Lake Systems only, not with Apple, and Apple is not responsible for the App or its content. Apple and its subsidiaries are third-party beneficiaries of these Terms and may enforce them against you. Your use of the App must also comply with the Apple Media Services Terms and Conditions.

10. Changes and termination

We may modify these Terms or the App or Site, or discontinue either, at any time. Material changes to these Terms will be reflected by the "Last updated" date above. Your continued use after changes take effect constitutes acceptance. We may suspend or terminate your access if you violate these Terms.

11. Governing law

These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of Washington, U.S.A., without regard to its conflict-of-laws rules. You agree that the exclusive venue for any dispute not subject to arbitration or small-claims court will be the state and federal courts located in Washington State, and you consent to personal jurisdiction there. Nothing in these Terms limits any rights you may have under mandatory consumer-protection laws of your country of residence.
