Terms of Use

1. Acceptance

By creating an account, selecting the acceptance box, or using MyMappi, you agree to these Terms and acknowledge the Privacy Policy. If you do not agree, do not create an account or use the service.

2. Eligibility

You must be at least 13 years old to use MyMappi. If the law where you live requires a higher age to consent to online services, you must meet that age or have authorization from a parent or legal guardian.

3. Accounts And Security

Provide accurate account information, keep your password confidential, and use only your own account. You are responsible for activity under your account. Notify MyMappi through the support channel if you believe your account has been compromised.

4. Your Memories And Media

You retain ownership of your titles, stories, notes, photos, videos, voice recordings, public Our Map contributions, and other content. You grant MyMappi a limited permission to host, process, copy, display, and transmit that content only as needed to operate, secure, sync, back up, moderate, and improve the service for you.

You represent that you have the rights and permissions needed to upload your content. Respect the privacy, copyright, publicity, and other rights of people shown or described in a memory.

If you intentionally send a private Memory Capsule, you direct MyMappi to make its text and place details available to the verified recipient. In version 1.0, you may optionally include one cover photo that passes the pre-delivery safety check; videos, audio, artifacts, and other photos are not shared. The recipient may save a separate copy to their account. Deleting your original later does not automatically delete a copy that the recipient already chose to save.

If you intentionally add a public story to Our Map, you direct MyMappi to display the submitted text, your chosen public handle, and the related public place to other people using Our Map. If the submitted fields pass automated checks, the story may appear without individual pre-publication approval and remains subject to reports and moderation. This public story is separate from the private memory in My Map; private media and other private memory fields are not included automatically. If you suggest a missing place, MyMappi may review, edit for consistency, approve, combine, or decline it before a community pin appears. An approved place may credit the first eligible suggester with First Finder recognition.

5. Community Standards

Private Memory Capsules, Our Map stories, public handles, and place suggestions are user-generated content and must be safe, useful, and respectful. Do not create, upload, submit, or share:

• Child sexual abuse or exploitation, sexual content involving minors, non-consensual intimate imagery, sexual exploitation, or pornographic content.
• Credible threats, encouragement of violence, content that promotes self-harm, stalking, or instructions intended to cause physical harm.
• Hateful, dehumanizing, discriminatory, harassing, bullying, or deliberately humiliating content targeting a person or protected group.
• Another person’s sensitive or private information, image, or likeness without the rights or permission needed to share it.
• Illegal, fraudulent, deceptive, infringing, malicious, or impersonating content, including malware or attempts to compromise another account or the service.

Do not use MyMappi to evade another person’s block, submit knowingly false reports, interfere with security or service operation, access another user’s account, scrape the service, or reverse engineer protected parts of the service except where law expressly permits it.

6. Safety Tools And Enforcement

MyMappi screens shared capsule text and the public handle, headline, story, and place-request text submitted to Our Map. The server may normalize text to detect some disguised prohibited terms, obvious personal contact details, and other material that appears to violate these standards, and may prevent that content from being delivered or published. Filters are limited, can make mistakes, and do not replace good judgment or human moderation. An optional shared capsule cover photo must come from the sender’s owner-controlled MyMappi storage, use a supported format and size, and pass a Google Cloud Vision SafeSearch check before delivery. If the check is unavailable or inconclusive, the photo is not shared; the sender may deliberately retry with a text-only capsule. Automated classification does not guarantee that content is safe.

A recipient can report a private capsule and block its sender. An Our Map user can report a public story, hide contributions from its creator, and later manage or unhide that creator from Account. Reports provide authorized moderators with the reason, optional details, relevant identifiers, and bounded evidence needed for review. MyMappi may place public content under review, restore or remove it, dismiss reports, remove or disable a capsule, decline or combine a place suggestion, revoke a badge or credit obtained through abuse, warn or restrict an account, suspend or terminate access, preserve relevant safety records, or report conduct when required by law. We consider context, severity, and history. Egregious conduct and repeated violations may lead to immediate account suspension or termination. Report decisions can be questioned by emailing mm@mymappiapp.com.

7. Privacy

My Map is private by default. You may intentionally send one private Memory Capsule to a verified recipient. Our Map is a separate public discovery layer where verified users can knowingly suggest a place or add a text story to an eligible public place. MyMappi never turns a private My Map memory or its media into an Our Map contribution automatically. How information is handled is described in the Privacy Policy.

8. Maps, Discovery, Events, Routes, Weather, And Location

Map pins, place names, addresses, recommendations, opening details, event listings, routes, travel times, weather, and device location may be delayed, expired, incomplete, or inaccurate. A curated, provider-supplied, or community-approved pin is not a guarantee, endorsement, reservation, or statement that a place or event is safe, open, accessible, or suitable for you. MyMappi is designed to preserve and discover meaningful places, not to provide emergency, safety-critical, or professional navigation. Verify important details, pay attention to real-world conditions and posted signs, and follow applicable laws.

First Finder and other badges are recognition inside MyMappi, not ownership of a location, endorsement by the location, proof of being the first person ever to visit it, or a promise of financial value. MyMappi may correct duplicate place records and adjust credit when needed for accuracy, safety, or abuse prevention.

9. Third-Party Services

MyMappi relies on third-party services for authentication, cloud storage, operational email, maps, place and event discovery, search, routes, weather, content safety, and external directions. MyMappi-controlled search, geocoding, and route services may relay only the bounded query or coordinates needed to approved production providers. Apple Maps or Google Maps receives destination details only when you choose external directions. Those services may have their own terms and policies, and availability may change.

10. Service Availability

MyMappi continues to evolve. Features, designs, storage formats, providers, and availability may change. Interruptions and defects may occur. Keep independent copies of irreplaceable media.

Version 1.0 is free and does not include subscriptions, in-app purchases, advertising, or sponsored placement. If paid features are offered later, their price and terms will be presented before purchase and these Terms will be updated when required.

11. MyMappi Property

MyMappi’s name, mascot, visual design, software, interfaces, and original service content are protected by applicable intellectual-property laws. These Terms do not transfer ownership of MyMappi property to you.

12. Suspension And Termination

You may stop using MyMappi at any time. We may limit or suspend access when reasonably necessary to protect users, security, legal compliance, or service integrity. Account deletion and data retention are described in the Privacy Policy.

13. Disclaimers

To the extent permitted by law, the service is provided “as is” and “as available,” without warranties of uninterrupted operation, accuracy, availability, fitness for a particular purpose, or preservation of every file. Nothing in these Terms limits rights that cannot legally be waived.

14. Limitation Of Liability

To the extent permitted by law, MyMappi will not be responsible for indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages, loss of data, or loss caused by relying on map, route, weather, or location information. Applicable consumer laws may provide rights that override part of this section.

15. Changes

We may update these Terms as the service develops. Material changes will be identified by a new effective date and, when appropriate, an in-app notice. Continuing to use MyMappi after updated Terms become effective means you accept them.

16. Contact

Use the in-app feedback option or email mm@mymappiapp.com. For a capsule or Our Map safety concern, report it in the app or use the subject “MyMappi Safety.”
