1.1By installing, downloading or using the Yacht Week app (the App), these terms (the Terms) apply to you and you agree to be bound by them. Please read them before installing or using the App.
1.2The App is provided by Day 8 AB, a company registered in Sweden with organisation number 556765-8769 and registered address at Beckholmsvägen 4, 115 21 Stockholm, Sweden, trading as Yacht Week. References to we, us and our are to Day 8 AB.
1.3The App is provided to you free of charge for your own personal, non-commercial use. You may not send it to anyone else, and you may not copy or modify the App, any part of it, or our trade marks.
1.4How we handle personal data collected through the App is set out in our Privacy Policy, published on theyachtweek.com.
1.5You can contact us at hello@yachtweek.com.
2.1It is a requirement of your booking that every guest on your crew downloads the App. Your skipper and host contact guests directly through the App, and we use it to send you information about your trip.
2.2The App is how your skipper and host communicate with you in the period before and during your trip, including about arrival, departure, kitty arrangements and other logistics. It also gives you access to schedule and route information, and to features we make available from time to time such as leaving feedback about your trip.
2.3The features available in the App may change. We may add, remove or alter features at any time.
2.4If you do not download the App, or you turn off notifications, you may not receive information about your trip.
2.5Our Package Booking Terms and Conditions apply to all bookings made with us and may be viewed at theyachtweek.com. Our Terms of Service apply to features of the App that give you access to our website. Where those terms differ from these Terms in relation to your booking, the Package Booking Terms and Conditions apply.
3.1We may change the App at any time. We may also issue updates, and you may need to install them to keep using the App.
3.2The App is currently free. If we ever decide to charge for the App or a feature of it, we will make clear what you are paying for before you pay anything.
4.1Some functions of the App need an active internet connection, over Wi-Fi or your mobile network. We are not responsible for the App not working fully where you have no connection or no data allowance.
4.2If you use the App outside a Wi-Fi area, your agreement with your mobile network provider continues to apply and you may be charged for data or roaming. You are responsible for those charges.
4.3If you are not the bill payer for the device, we assume you have the bill payer's permission to use the App.
4.4It is your responsibility to keep your device and your access to the App secure. We recommend you do not jailbreak or root your device. Doing so can expose it to malware, compromise its security features, and stop the App working properly.
5.1The App asks for permission to use certain features of your device, which may include notifications, camera, photo library, microphone, location and contacts. We ask before using any of them, and you can change your choice at any time in your device settings.
5.2Turning off a permission may limit what the App can do. Turning off notifications in particular means you may not receive time-sensitive information about your trip.
6.1You are responsible for activity that occurs through your account. You may not sell, transfer, license or assign your account or any account rights.
6.2The information you give us on registration and afterwards must be true, accurate, current and complete, and you agree to keep it up to date.
6.3Tell us promptly at hello@yachtweek.com if you believe someone else has accessed your account.
7.1We grant you a worldwide, non-exclusive, royalty-free, revocable licence to use the App for your personal use in accordance with these Terms.
7.2All trade marks, copyrights, database rights and other intellectual property rights in the App, together with the underlying software code, are owned by us or our licensors. The licence in paragraph 7.1 is a right to use only, and transfers no ownership.

7.4The App uses various open source libraries. For the full list of libraries and licences, contact developer@day8.com.

8.2You may not use the App for any illegal or unauthorised purpose. You must comply with all laws, rules and regulations applicable to your use of the App and your content, including copyright law.

8.4You represent and warrant that you own the content you post or otherwise have the right to grant the licences in these Terms; that your content does not infringe any third party's rights, including privacy, publicity, copyright and trade mark rights; that you will pay any royalties or fees owed because of content you post; and that you have the legal capacity to enter into these Terms.
9.1We operate a zero tolerance policy for objectionable content and abusive users.
9.2You may not post, upload or distribute content that is or contains violent or threatening material; nude or partially nude images or video; pornographic or sexually suggestive content; discriminatory content; hateful content or speech; unlawful content; or content that infringes the intellectual property rights of others.
9.3Abusive behaviour includes, but is not limited to, bullying, harassment, stalking, threats, and the unauthorised use of another user's personal information. You must not defame, stalk, bully, abuse, harass, threaten, impersonate or intimidate other users.

9.5You must not send unwanted commercial or harassing communications to other users of the App.
9.6The App provides a clear and accessible way to flag objectionable content and report abusive users, available on posts, comments and messages. We will review all reports within 24 hours. Where content or a user is found to breach this section, we will act immediately, which may include removing the content, blocking the user, or permanently removing them from the service.
9.7The behaviour rules in our Package Booking Terms and Conditions apply to conduct in the App in the same way as to conduct on a trip, including our zero tolerance approach to sexual misconduct.
9.8Where you breach this section or these Terms generally, we may remove content, delete your profile, and end your use of the App. We are not obliged to pre-screen, monitor or edit content. You may bear legal responsibility for content you post that breaches these Terms.
10.1The App is not an emergency service and must not be relied on in an emergency. In an emergency, contact the local emergency services, and your skipper or a member of our Event Team.
11.1We intend the App to be available as much as possible, but it may be interrupted for scheduled maintenance, upgrades, emergency repairs, or failures of telecommunications links or equipment.
11.2The App runs on Apple iOS and Android devices. Its quality and availability depend on the internet and mobile networks and may be affected by factors outside our reasonable control.
11.3Support for the App is provided by us, not by the app store you downloaded it from. Contact hello@yachtweek.com.

12.2We may upgrade the App and change the minimum supported versions from time to time. You may need to install updates to continue using the App.
13.1Your use of the App is also subject to the rules of the app store you downloaded it from, including the Apple App Store or Google Play.
13.2These Terms are between you and us, not between you and the app store operator. The app store operator is not responsible for the App or its content, and has no obligation to provide support or maintenance for it.
13.3If the App fails to conform to any warranty the app store operator is required to give, you may notify that operator and it may refund the purchase price, if any. To the maximum extent permitted by law, the app store operator has no other warranty obligation in relation to the App.
13.4The app store operator and its subsidiaries are third-party beneficiaries of these Terms and may enforce them against you.
14.1The App is provided on an "as is" and "as available" basis. We do not promise that the App will be error-free or uninterrupted, that defects will be corrected, or that the information in the App is accurate, complete or useful.
14.2We are not liable for business losses. If you use the App for any commercial or business purpose, we have no liability to you for loss of profit, loss of business, business interruption, or loss of business opportunity.
14.3We are not liable for damage to your device resulting from installing or using the App, except where that damage is caused by our negligence.
14.4Nothing in these Terms excludes or limits our liability for death or personal injury caused by our negligence, for fraud or fraudulent misrepresentation, or for any other liability which cannot be excluded or limited by law. Nothing in these Terms affects your rights as a consumer under mandatory law.
14.5Our liability in connection with your booking is set out in the Package Booking Terms and Conditions and is not limited by these Terms.
15.1We may end your use of the App by giving you notice, including where you breach these Terms. On termination, the rights and licences granted to you end and you must stop using the App.
15.2You may stop using the App at any time by deleting it from your device. Deleting the App does not cancel your booking and does not end your obligations under the Package Booking Terms and Conditions.
16.1These Terms are governed by the laws of Sweden. The courts of Sweden shall have exclusive jurisdiction over any dispute or claim arising out of or in connection with these Terms or their subject matter or formation, including non-contractual disputes and claims.
16.2This does not affect any right you may have as a consumer under mandatory law to bring proceedings in the courts of the country in which you are domiciled, or to rely on mandatory consumer protection rules of that country.
17.1If you have any questions about these Terms, contact us at hello@yachtweek.com.
