MyTravelPal — Terms of Service
Last updated: 2026-08-28
These terms govern your use of MyTravelPal ("the App"), a road-trip planning service for European drivers. By installing or using the App you agree to them.

1. What MyTravelPal does
MyTravelPal helps you plan road trips: route computation, optimal departure time, meal and sleep stops, toll and fuel cost estimates, weather along the route, and hotel/restaurant suggestions.
Estimates are approximations. Distances, driving times, tolls, fuel prices and hotel rates come from public data sources (OSM/OSRM, government fuel feeds, Open-Meteo, Geoapify) and heuristic models. They can be wrong. Always cross-check critical information (toll booth prices, hotel availability, road closures) with authoritative sources before you commit.
2. Your account
- You must sign in with Google, Apple or Facebook to use the App.
- You are responsible for keeping the sign-in account secure.
- One account per person. Do not share credentials.
- We may suspend or terminate accounts that abuse the service (e.g. automated scraping, attempts to circumvent rate limits).
3. Free and paid features
The core planning features are free. If we introduce paid features in the future ("Premium"), we will describe them clearly in the app at the point of purchase. Payment is processed by Google Play Billing or Apple App Store — we never see your card details.
Refunds follow the store's standard policy (Google Play: usually 48h window; App Store: contact Apple).
4. Acceptable use
You agree NOT to:
- Reverse-engineer, decompile, or extract the API key or other secrets from the app.
- Automate the API (scraping, bots, or scripted planning at scale).
- Use the App to plan trips that violate local law.
- Impersonate others or provide false profile data intentionally.
- Interfere with the availability of the service (DDoS, exploiting bugs at scale).
Violations may result in account suspension.
5. Data providers and third parties
The App integrates with third-party services (see Privacy Policy for the full list). We do not control those services' terms; they apply to your use of their content:
- Booking.com links: subject to Booking's own booking terms.
- TheFork links: subject to TheFork's own reservation terms.
- OpenStreetMap: our routing data is derived from OSM under the ODbL license. Attribution is available in Settings → About.
- Google Maps deep links: subject to Google's terms.
Any transaction you complete on those partner sites is between you and them; MyTravelPal is not a party to it.
6. Liability
MyTravelPal is provided "as is". We work hard on accuracy but cannot guarantee that:
- The recommended route is the fastest available.
- Toll prices, fuel prices, hotel rates or restaurant availability are current.
- Weather forecasts or adverse event alerts reflect the reality when you drive.
- The service is available without interruption.
You drive at your own risk. MyTravelPal is not liable for damages arising from following (or not following) its recommendations, including missed reservations, unexpected costs, delays, or road incidents. To the maximum extent allowed by law, our aggregate liability for any claim related to the App is capped at the amount you have paid us in the last 12 months (0 € for free-tier users).
Nothing in these terms limits your rights under mandatory consumer protection law in your country (in the EU, the Consumer Rights Directive applies).
7. Termination
You can stop using the App at any time by uninstalling it or by deleting your account (Settings → "Borrar mi cuenta").
We may terminate accounts that violate section 4. In that case we delete your data within 30 days, unless we are legally required to retain it.
8. Governing law
These terms are governed by Spanish law. Disputes go to the courts of [your city, Spain]. This does not affect your rights as a consumer to bring proceedings in your country of residence.
9. Changes
We may update these terms as the service evolves. Material changes will be announced in-app at least 14 days before they take effect. Continued use after a change means you accept the new terms.
MyTravelPal is operated by [Your legal entity here]. Replace this line with your registered business details before publishing.
