Terms of Service

1. Acceptance of Terms

By downloading, installing, or using Ridgebook (the "App"), you agree to these Terms of Service. If you do not agree, do not use the App.

2. License to Use the App

Beacon Light Investments grants you a personal, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable license to use Ridgebook on devices you own or control, for your own personal, non-commercial use, subject to the App Store's or Google Play's applicable usage rules.

3. Your Content

Everything you enter into Ridgebook — lists, peaks, summit logs, photos, objectives, and notes — is yours. It's stored locally on your device and is included in your device's own OS-level backup (iCloud/Google) if you have that enabled. We do not access, host, or claim any ownership over your content. See our Privacy Policy for full details.

4. Pricing

Ridgebook is currently offered free of charge, with no in-app purchases, subscriptions, or ads of any kind. There are no fees to use any feature described on this site or in the App as of the effective date above. If this ever changes for a future version, this page and the App's own store listing will be updated to reflect it before any charge applies.

5. Acceptable Use

You agree not to reverse-engineer, decompile, or attempt to extract the source code of the App except as permitted by law, and not to use the App for any unlawful purpose.

6. Backcountry & Trail-Planning Disclaimer

Ridgebook is a personal logbook, not a trail guide or safety authority. It records what you enter about your own climbs — it does not provide route information, weather data, permit requirements, or backcountry safety guidance, and it does not verify the accuracy of anything you enter. You are solely responsible for your own route research, preparation, and compliance with applicable land-manager rules before any climb.

7. Disclaimer of Warranties

The App is provided "as is" and "as available," without warranties of any kind, express or implied, including but not limited to fitness for a particular purpose, merchantability, or non-infringement.

8. Limitation of Liability

To the maximum extent permitted by law, Beacon Light Investments shall not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, or consequential damages arising from your use of, or inability to use, the App — including any loss of data stored on your device, or any injury or loss arising from backcountry activity.

9. Changes to the App or These Terms

We may update the App or these Terms from time to time. If these Terms change materially, the "Effective date" above will be updated. Continued use of the App after a change constitutes acceptance of the revised Terms.

10. Termination

You may stop using the App at any time by deleting it. Data already stored locally on your device remains yours; use "Delete All My Data" in Settings to remove it.
