Legal
Terms of Use
These terms cover your use of the Ostro mobile app and this website, both provided by Studio Seol. By using them, you agree to what follows. If you do not agree, please do not use them.
The licence you have
You may install and use Ostro on devices you own or control, for your own sailing and race-timing use, personal or within your club. The app and its content remain the property of Studio Seol. You may not copy, resell, reverse-engineer or redistribute the app except as allowed by law or the app store you installed it from.
Results are a tool, not an authority
Ostro helps you record finishes and compute corrected times, and it is built to be accurate. Even so, the results it produces are aids for the person running the race. They are not an official race result on their own. Ratings, sailing instructions, protests and the race committee’s decisions all sit outside the app. Always check results against your club’s own scoring before they are published or relied upon. Studio Seol is not responsible for scoring disputes, misrecorded finishes, or decisions made from the app’s output.
Data on your device
Races you time and boats you enter are stored on your device, as described in the Privacy Policy. Keeping backups and exports of that data is up to you. Deleting the app removes it, and we cannot recover it for you because we never had it.
Club accounts and publishing
Publishing results is optional and needs an account. You are responsible for keeping your sign-in secure and for what you publish. By publishing for a club, you confirm that the club has authorised you to do so and that it is entitled to share what you include, such as any names. Published results are public.
You must not use Ostro to publish anything unlawful, misleading or that infringes someone else’s rights. We may remove content, or suspend an account, that breaks these terms or that we are asked to remove for a legitimate reason, such as a person asking for their name to be taken down. You can delete your account at any time, as described on our account deletion page.
Availability and changes
The app and website are provided “as is” and “as available”, without warranties of any kind to the extent the law allows. We may update, change or discontinue features over time. If these terms change materially, the date above will be updated.
Liability
To the fullest extent permitted by law, Studio Seol is not liable for any indirect or consequential loss arising from use of the app or website, including lost results, missed finishes or scoring errors. Nothing in these terms limits liability that cannot be limited by law.
Your rights as a consumer
If you use Ostro as a consumer, you keep all the rights that the consumer law of the country where you live gives you, including in Ireland and elsewhere in the EU. Nothing in these terms takes those rights away.
Governing law
These terms are governed by the law of Northern Ireland, and the courts of Northern Ireland can hear any dispute about them. If you are a consumer living elsewhere, you can also bring a claim in the courts where you live, and the mandatory consumer protections of that country still apply.
