The short version: use it sensibly, it's guidance not gospel, don't try to break it, and your own judgement in the water is always the deciding factor.
Last updated 29 July 2026 · Draft pending legal review before launch.
By creating a SurfSeer account or using the app or this website, you're agreeing to these terms. If you don't agree with them, don't use the service.
If we change these terms in a way that materially affects you, we'll say so in the app before the change takes effect.
SurfSeer predicts breaking wave height at spots you set up, along with related information such as wave shape, tide and wind context, and optional conversational narrations.
The service is provided as-is. We work to keep it accurate and available, but we don't warrant that it will be uninterrupted, error-free, or correct on any given day.
This is the term that matters most. SurfSeer's predictions are estimates. Conditions change, forecasts are wrong sometimes, and no prediction can account for what's happening in front of you at the moment you go in.
You are responsible for your own safety. Only surf in conditions you can handle, follow local warnings and lifeguards, and make your own assessment of the water before entering it. Do not use SurfSeer as the sole basis for a decision about whether conditions are safe.
To the fullest extent the law allows, we're not liable for loss, injury or damage arising from reliance on a prediction.
You need an account to use the service. Keep your credentials secure, and tell us if you think someone else has access to your account.
You must be old enough under your local law to enter into this agreement and to consent to the processing described in the privacy policy.
You're responsible for what happens under your account.
Every new account starts with a seven-day trial including one spot. After the trial, continued spot access requires a paid plan.
Subscriptions are billed through the App Store or Google Play under their terms. Cancellations, refunds and payment issues are handled through the store you purchased from, not by us directly.
Spot caps apply per plan and are enforced when you create a spot. Changing plans applies the new cap straight away; spots you already have keep working.
The Seer runs on an AI provider you choose, using an API key you supply. That relationship is between you and that provider, under their terms and their pricing. You're responsible for any charges they bill you.
We don't control the provider's output. Narrations and chat responses are generated text and can be wrong, and the guidance-not-guarantee term above applies to them in full.
You can remove your key at any time from Settings. The prediction engine works without it.
Some things are off the table:
The spots you create, the profiles you configure and the sessions you log are yours. You keep ownership of them.
You grant us the permission we need to store that content, sync it across your devices and use it to produce and improve your predictions, as described in the privacy policy. Session feedback tunes the model for your spot.
You can delete your spots and sessions, or your whole account, at any time.
The app, the website, the prediction engine, the SurfSeer name and the visual design belong to us. These terms don't transfer any of it to you - you get a personal, non-exclusive, revocable licence to use the service as intended.
You can stop using the service and delete your account at any time.
We may suspend or end an account that breaches these terms, or where we're required to by law. If we do that other than for a breach, and you've paid for a period you haven't used, we'll deal with it fairly through the relevant store.
Nothing in these terms excludes rights you have under consumer law that can't be excluded - in Australia, that includes the consumer guarantees under the Australian Consumer Law.
Subject to that, and to the fullest extent the law allows, our total liability arising from the service is limited to the amount you paid us in the twelve months before the claim, and we're not liable for indirect or consequential loss.
These terms are governed by the law of Australia, and the courts there have jurisdiction over any dispute - without affecting rights you have under the law of the place you live.
Questions about these terms go through in-app support from the Settings tab, or the contact details on the support page.
