Thanks for using Byway. By using the app or our services you agree to these terms. They're written plainly. If you don't agree, please don't use the app.
1. The app
Byway is a bike route generator provided by Ample Software ("we"). It's free to use. We may change, add, or remove features at any time without notice.
2. Riding safely is on you
Cycling is inherently risky. Byway shows you a suggested route on a map; you are entirely responsible for riding it safely:
- Obey all traffic laws and local regulations.
- Wear a helmet and use lights at night.
- Don't ride distracted — keep your phone in your pocket. Byway is meant to be glanced at, not stared at.
- Use your judgment. If a road looks unsafe, take a different one. The suggested route is exactly that: a suggestion.
3. Map data accuracy
Routes are generated from OpenStreetMap data and computed by GraphHopper. That data can be out of date or wrong — a road may be closed, a path may have been removed, a one-way may have changed direction. Always verify against what you see in front of you.
4. Acceptable use
- Don't try to break, overload, or reverse-engineer our routing servers.
- Don't scrape the API for derivative products without asking us first.
- Don't use Byway to plan anything illegal.
5. Intellectual property
The Byway name, branding, app, and original content are owned by Ample Software. Map data is © OpenStreetMap contributors, available under the Open Database License. Routing engine is GraphHopper, licensed under the Apache License 2.0.
6. No warranties
Byway is provided "as is" without warranties of any kind, express or implied. We don't promise the app will be uninterrupted, error-free, or available in your area. We don't promise the suggested route is safe.
7. Limitation of liability
To the maximum extent permitted by law, Ample Software is not liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages arising from your use of Byway. Our total liability for any claim arising out of these terms is limited to USD $10.
8. Changes
We may update these terms. If we do, we'll update the date at the top. Continuing to use the app after a change means you accept the updated terms.
9. Governing law
These terms are governed by the laws of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, USA, without regard to its conflict of laws rules.
