Terms of Service

Version 2.1
Effective date: 11 May 2026 · Last reviewed: 11 May 2026 · Change history

These Terms of Service ("Terms") govern your use of the Goyova mobile application, the goyova.com website, and related services (together, the "Service") provided by Goyova Pty Ltd (ACN [INSERT ACN]), a company incorporated in Australia.

By downloading, installing, or using the Service, you agree to be bound by these Terms. If you do not agree, do not use the Service.

About the Service. Goyova helps you discover natural spectacles and plan trips around them. It also lets you share short visit reports with photos to help other travellers. You use the app anonymously — no account is required. The app is free; we earn revenue through optional affiliate links to booking partners.

1. ABOUT THE SERVICE


Goyova is a mobile application that helps users discover natural events, wildlife migrations, seasonal blooms, celestial phenomena, and other natural spectacles worldwide. Features include:

  • Discovery — searchable feed of events ranked by season, intensity, and proximity
  • Map — interactive map of events and your planned trips
  • Trip planning — save events and add stops (hotels, flights, car rentals, tours); export to PDF; trip data is stored locally on your device only
  • Local alert preferences — set per-event in-season and new-post alerts that appear in the Alerts tab
  • Community visit reports — share short reports of your visit, with photos, that other travellers can read
  • The Service is provided free of charge and contains no advertising. Goyova earns revenue through optional affiliate links to third-party booking partners (see Section 14).


    2. ACCEPTANCE AND CAPACITY


    You confirm that:

  • You are at least 13 years old (or the minimum age of digital consent in your country, whichever is higher; in the UK and parts of the EU this may be 16; in Korea 14)
  • If you are between 13 and the age of majority in your country, your parent or legal guardian is aware of and consents to your use of the Service
  • You have the legal capacity to enter into a binding agreement
  • You will comply with these Terms, the Acceptable Use Policy, and all applicable laws
  • The Service is not directed at, and not intended for use by, children under 13. The app does not currently include an age gate. If we discover that a user is under 13, we will remove their content and block the device.


    3. LICENCE TO USE


    Subject to your compliance with these Terms, Goyova grants you a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable, non-sublicensable, revocable licence to download and use the Service for your personal, non-commercial purposes on a compatible device that you own or control.

    You may not, and may not allow anyone else to:

  • Copy, modify, translate, or create derivative works of the Service
  • Reverse engineer, decompile, or disassemble the Service, except to the extent applicable law expressly permits and only after written notice to Goyova
  • Use the Service to develop a competing product or service
  • Remove, obscure, or alter any copyright, trademark, or other proprietary notice
  • Scrape, harvest, or systematically download event data, photos, or other content
  • Use automated tools (bots, scripts, scrapers) to submit posts, votes, or reports
  • Attempt to access other users' data or interfere with security features
  • Interfere with, disrupt, or place an unreasonable load on the Service or its infrastructure
  • Use the Service in any way that violates applicable law or the rights of others
  • This licence is granted by Goyova, not by Apple Inc. or Google LLC. Apple and Google have no obligation to provide support, maintenance, warranty, or liability for the Service.


    4. ACCOUNTS AND DATA DELETION


    Goyova currently has no user account system. You use the Service anonymously, identified only by a random ID generated on your device. There is no signup, login, password, or profile to create.

    If we introduce optional accounts in a future release, we will update this section and the Privacy Policy first, and you will need to take an affirmative action to create an account.

    4.1 Deleting your data

    You can delete your data at any time:

  • Delete a specific post — open your post, tap "Edit", then "Delete this post". Removal is immediate.
  • Clear all your data in-app — Settings (User icon, top-right of Explore tab) → Your Data → "Clear my data". This requests deletion of all your posts, photos, votes, reports, and blocked-users records from our servers within 30 days, and immediately removes your device ID, display name, and other local preferences from your phone.
  • Email [email protected] with subject "Data deletion request". Effects are the same.
  • Records we are legally required to retain (such as tax-related affiliate revenue records or device-block records for repeat AUP offenders) are retained for the period required by law. Photos previously promoted as "main event photos" may be retained unless you specifically request removal — see Section 8.4.


    5. APP STORE TERMS (APPLE AND GOOGLE)


    5.1 Apple App Store

    If you downloaded the Service from the Apple App Store, the following terms apply between you and Apple:

  • These Terms are between you and Goyova only, not with Apple. Apple is not responsible for the Service or its content.
  • Apple has no obligation to furnish any maintenance or support for the Service.
  • If the Service fails to conform to any applicable warranty, you may notify Apple, and Apple will refund the purchase price for the Service (if any) to you. To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, Apple will have no other warranty obligation whatsoever with respect to the Service.
  • Goyova, not Apple, is responsible for addressing any of your or any third party's claims relating to the Service or your use of it, including: (i) product liability claims; (ii) any claim that the Service fails to conform to any applicable legal or regulatory requirement; and (iii) claims arising under consumer protection, privacy, or similar legislation.
  • If a third party claims the Service or your possession and use of the Service infringes that third party's intellectual property rights, Goyova, not Apple, is solely responsible for the investigation, defence, settlement, and discharge of any such claim.
  • You represent that (i) you are not located in a country that is subject to a U.S. Government embargo, or that has been designated by the U.S. Government as a "terrorist supporting" country; and (ii) you are not listed on any U.S. Government list of prohibited or restricted parties.
  • You must comply with applicable third-party terms of agreement when using the Service.
  • Apple Inc. and its subsidiaries are third-party beneficiaries of these Terms, and upon your acceptance of these Terms, Apple will have the right (and will be deemed to have accepted the right) to enforce these Terms against you as a third-party beneficiary.
  • 5.2 Google Play Store

    If you downloaded the Service from Google Play, your use is also subject to Google Play's Terms of Service. You acknowledge that Google LLC is not a party to these Terms and is not responsible for the Service.


    6. USING THE SERVICE


    You may use the Service only for lawful purposes and in accordance with these Terms and the Acceptable Use Policy (AUP). The full list of prohibited conduct is in the AUP.


    7. COMMUNITY CONTENT — OWNERSHIP


    You retain full ownership of all photos, comments, visit data, and other materials you submit to the Service ("User Content"). Goyova does not claim ownership of your User Content.


    8. COMMUNITY CONTENT — LICENCE TO GOYOVA


    8.1 The licence you grant

    When you tap "Post report" in the in-app form, after seeing the on-screen notice that your location and date will be visible to all users, you grant Goyova a worldwide, royalty-free, non-exclusive, sublicensable, transferable licence to:

  • Host, store, reproduce, and display your User Content within the Service
  • Show your visit location, date, optional display name, and comment alongside your photo(s) to other users
  • Promote the Service using your User Content on Goyova-owned channels with attribution where practical
  • Promote your photo as the main event photo for an event if it is highly rated by the community and the location is verified
  • Make technical modifications (resizing, format conversion, EXIF stripping, image-quality optimisation) necessary to operate the Service
  • This licence is granted only for the purpose of operating and promoting the Service. It terminates when you delete the User Content (subject to a reasonable period to remove it from backup systems and any sublicences granted in good faith before termination).

    8.2 What we will not do

    We will not sell your User Content to third parties or use it in paid advertising. Any future commercial licensing of your photos (the planned Contributor Programme, Section 9) requires your separate, explicit consent in a separate agreement.

    8.3 Your representations

    By submitting User Content, you confirm:

  • The content is yours, or you have all necessary rights to share it
  • It does not infringe any third party's copyright, trademark, or other intellectual property right
  • It does not contain identifiable individuals without their informed consent (and parental consent where they are minors)
  • It does not contain private property where photography is prohibited
  • The visit location and date are accurate to the best of your knowledge
  • Its submission and display in the Service does not violate any applicable law in your jurisdiction
  • You are solely responsible for your User Content. Goyova is not liable for any User Content submitted by users.

    8.4 Photo promotion and removal

    If your photo is selected as the main event photo, it will be displayed prominently to all users on the relevant event page. You may request its removal at any time by emailing [email protected]. We will remove it within 30 days. Using "Clear my data" also constitutes a removal request for promoted photos.


    9. FOUNDING CONTRIBUTORS PROGRAMME


    To recognise early users who help build the community, Goyova operates a Founding Contributors programme. The terms are simple:

  • If you post visit reports during Goyova's first months (the exact end date will be announced before it takes effect), you earn a permanent "Founding Contributor" badge on every report you have shared
  • The badge is non-transferable, non-redeemable for cash or services, and granted entirely at Goyova's discretion
  • The badge does not change your ownership of your User Content or the licence terms in Section 8
  • The badge is purely recognition; no payment is made and no commercial licensing of your photos is implied
  • Goyova may modify or end the Founding Contributors programme on reasonable notice. Existing badges already granted will not be retroactively removed except for breach of these Terms or the AUP.

    This is different from the (separate, future) commercial Contributor Programme. We may, at some future date, offer an opt-in commercial photo-licensing programme. If we do, it will be governed by a separate agreement with explicit additional consent — bundling commercial use into these Terms is expressly excluded for EU, UK, and Korean users, and we apply that standard to all users.

    10. CONTENT STANDARDS


    You agree not to submit User Content that:

  • Is sexually explicit, pornographic, or obscene
  • Depicts graphic violence, gore, self-harm, or animal cruelty
  • Harasses, threatens, intimidates, or abuses any person, or constitutes "doxxing" (publishing personal information with intent to harm — a criminal offence in Australia under the Privacy and Other Legislation Amendment Act 2024 carrying penalties of up to seven years' imprisonment)
  • Is discriminatory, racist, or hateful based on race, ethnicity, national origin, gender, gender identity, sexual orientation, religion, disability, age, or any protected characteristic
  • Infringes copyright, trademark, trade secret, or other intellectual property right
  • Contains another person's personal information (address, phone, email) without their consent
  • Is spam, phishing, scam, malware, or unsolicited promotional content
  • Is materially false, misleading, or defamatory
  • Promotes or facilitates illegal activity, including illegal wildlife trade, poaching, or unauthorised access to protected areas
  • Violates any applicable law or regulation
  • The complete list of prohibited conduct is in the Acceptable Use Policy, which forms part of these Terms.


    11. REPORTING CONTENT AND TAKEDOWN


    11.1 Reporting in-app

    Every community post has a "Report / Block" option. Tap it and select a category — Spam, Harassment, Offensive content, Misleading information, or Other. The same categories apply to individual photos via the three-dot menu in the photo viewer. Reports are reviewed within 7 days. Posts reported by three or more unique devices are automatically hidden pending human review, and the author is notified of the most common reason and how to appeal.

    11.2 Notice and takedown for intellectual property (DMCA / equivalent)

    If you believe content on the Service infringes your copyright, trademark, or other intellectual property right, send written notice to [email protected] with subject "DMCA notice" containing:

    1. Your name, address, telephone number, and email address
    2. A description of the work claimed to be infringed
    3. A description of the allegedly infringing content sufficient for us to locate it (such as a screenshot or post URL)
    4. A statement that you have a good-faith belief that the use is not authorised by the rights holder, its agent, or the law
    5. A statement, under penalty of perjury, that the notice is accurate and that you are the rights holder or authorised to act on the rights holder's behalf
    6. Your physical or electronic signature

    We will respond promptly and may remove or disable access to the allegedly infringing content. Repeat infringers will have their devices permanently blocked.

    11.3 Counter-notice

    If content of yours has been removed and you believe the removal was a mistake or that you have a right to use the material, you may submit a counter-notice to [email protected].

    11.4 Notice and action under the EU Digital Services Act

    For users in the EU, this Section 11 also operates as our "notice and action mechanism" under Article 16 of Regulation (EU) 2022/2065 (the Digital Services Act). Our single point of contact for DSA notices is [email protected] with subject "DSA notice". We provide a statement of reasons when we remove content or restrict accounts in accordance with Article 17 DSA — for community-reported posts that cross the auto-hide threshold, this statement of reasons is delivered automatically by in-app notification at the time of removal.

    11.5 Illegal content (Australia and other jurisdictions)

    Illegal content (such as child sexual abuse material, terrorist content, or credible threats) is reported to the appropriate authority. Australian users can also report directly to the eSafety Commissioner.


    12. MODERATION, SUSPENSION, AND TERMINATION


    Goyova may, in its reasonable discretion and in accordance with applicable law:

  • Remove or restrict access to any User Content that breaches these Terms or the AUP
  • Issue warnings
  • Temporarily or permanently block any device that repeatedly breaches these Terms
  • Cooperate with law enforcement and regulators in response to lawful requests
  • Discontinue, modify, or restrict any feature of the Service, with reasonable notice where practical
  • Where required by the EU Digital Services Act, the UK Online Safety Act 2023, or comparable law, we will provide an affected user with the reasons for our action and information about how to contest it. You can appeal any moderation decision by emailing [email protected] with subject "Moderation appeal".

    Upon termination of your access, your licence to use the Service ends immediately. Sections 7, 8, 13, 15, 17, 18, 19, 23, and 24 survive termination.


    13. ACCURACY OF EVENT INFORMATION AND INHERENT RISK


    Event information in the Service is provided for general information only. Natural events are inherently unpredictable. We do not guarantee that any event will occur at the described time, place, or intensity, or at all.

    You acknowledge that travel to view natural events and wildlife encounters involve inherent risks, which may include weather, terrain, wildlife behaviour, and remote locations. You are solely responsible for your own safety, for assessing local conditions before travel, and for following all local laws, regulations, and guidance. Goyova is not responsible for any travel, financial, safety, health, or other decision you make based on information in the Service.


    14. THIRD-PARTY BOOKINGS, AFFILIATE LINKS, AND EXTERNAL CONTENT


    The Service displays links to third-party tour operators, accommodation providers, car-hire companies, and external websites, including (without limitation): Booking.com, Expedia, Hotels.com, TripAdvisor, Sixt, Kiwi, GetYourGuide, Trivago, Rentalcars. Curated event photos are sourced from Unsplash, Pexels, Pixabay, Wikimedia Commons, and contributing photographers under their applicable licences (Pexels Licence, Unsplash Licence, CC0, CC-BY, CC-BY-SA). Map tiles are provided by CARTO; place geocoding by OpenStreetMap / Nominatim.

    14.1 Affiliate disclosure

    Some links are affiliate links. If you tap an affiliate link and complete a booking on the partner's site, Goyova may receive a commission. This does not affect the price you pay. We do not recommend any partner solely because of affiliate revenue.

    14.2 Third-party responsibility

    Once you leave the Service through a third-party link, the third party's own terms and privacy policy apply. Goyova is not responsible for the content, products, services, pricing, availability, or privacy practices of any third party.

    14.3 Photo content credits

    Attribution to photographers and sources is shown where required by the applicable licence.


    15. INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY


    The Service, the Goyova name and logo, the design, source code, original event content and editorial copy, the database structure, and all original content are owned by Goyova or its licensors and are protected by Australian and international copyright, trademark, and other intellectual property laws.

    Except as expressly permitted by these Terms, you may not copy, reproduce, distribute, publish, display, perform, modify, translate, transmit, sell, or create derivative works of any part of the Service or our intellectual property without our prior written consent.


    16. DISCLAIMER OF WARRANTIES


    EXCEPT AS EXPRESSLY SET OUT IN THESE TERMS, AND TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, THE SERVICE IS PROVIDED "AS IS" AND "AS AVAILABLE" WITHOUT WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, WHETHER EXPRESS, IMPLIED, STATUTORY, OR OTHERWISE.

    WE EXPRESSLY DISCLAIM ALL WARRANTIES, INCLUDING IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, NON-INFRINGEMENT, AND ANY WARRANTIES ARISING FROM COURSE OF DEALING OR USAGE OF TRADE.

    WE DO NOT WARRANT THAT THE SERVICE WILL BE UNINTERRUPTED, TIMELY, SECURE, ERROR-FREE, OR FREE OF VIRUSES OR OTHER HARMFUL COMPONENTS, OR THAT EVENT INFORMATION IS COMPLETE, ACCURATE, OR CURRENT.

    Australian Consumer Law: Nothing in this section excludes, restricts, or modifies any consumer guarantee, right, or remedy under the Australian Consumer Law (Schedule 2 to the Competition and Consumer Act 2010 (Cth)) or any other law that cannot be lawfully excluded. See Section 20.

    17. LIMITATION OF LIABILITY


    TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, GOYOVA AND ITS OFFICERS, DIRECTORS, EMPLOYEES, AGENTS, AND LICENSORS SHALL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, EXEMPLARY, CONSEQUENTIAL, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES (INCLUDING LOSS OF PROFITS, REVENUE, DATA, GOODWILL, USE, OR OTHER INTANGIBLE LOSSES) ARISING OUT OF OR IN CONNECTION WITH YOUR USE OF OR INABILITY TO USE THE SERVICE, EVEN IF WE HAVE BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.

    TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, OUR TOTAL AGGREGATE LIABILITY TO YOU FOR ALL CLAIMS ARISING FROM OR IN CONNECTION WITH THESE TERMS OR YOUR USE OF THE SERVICE SHALL NOT EXCEED AUD $100 (THE SERVICE IS FREE — NO HIGHER AMOUNT HAS BEEN PAID).

    Important carve-outs (mandatory consumer rights):

    Nothing in this section limits liability that cannot be limited under applicable law, including liability for: (a) death or personal injury caused by negligence; (b) fraud or fraudulent misrepresentation; (c) breach of consumer guarantees under the Australian Consumer Law; (d) liability that cannot be excluded under EU or UK consumer law; or (e) any liability that cannot be excluded under the mandatory law of your country of habitual residence.


    18. INDEMNIFICATION


    You agree to defend, indemnify, and hold harmless Goyova and its officers, directors, employees, and agents from any claims, damages, losses, liabilities, costs, and expenses (including reasonable legal fees) arising from:

  • Your use or misuse of the Service
  • Your User Content
  • Your breach of these Terms or the Acceptable Use Policy
  • Your violation of any third party's rights, including intellectual property and privacy rights
  • Your violation of any applicable law
  • This Section 18 does not apply to the extent the claim arises from Goyova's own negligence or wilful misconduct, or to the extent indemnities cannot be imposed under applicable consumer law.


    19. FORCE MAJEURE


    Goyova is not liable for any failure or delay in performance arising from causes beyond its reasonable control, including but not limited to natural disasters, war, terrorism, civil disturbance, pandemic, government action, internet or infrastructure failures, or actions or failures of third-party service providers.


    20. AUSTRALIAN CONSUMER LAW


    If you are a consumer as defined under the Australian Consumer Law (ACL), our supply of the Service comes with consumer guarantees that cannot be excluded, including guarantees of acceptable quality, fitness for any disclosed purpose, and that the Service will be supplied with due care and skill.

    Nothing in these Terms excludes, restricts, or modifies the application of those guarantees or any other right or remedy you have under the ACL or any other law that cannot be lawfully excluded. To the extent permitted by the ACL, where the Service is not of a kind ordinarily acquired for personal, domestic, or household use, our liability for breach of a non-excludable consumer guarantee is limited (at our option) to resupplying the Service or paying the cost of having the Service resupplied.


    21. EU AND UK CONSUMERS


    If you are a consumer in the EU or UK, nothing in these Terms affects your statutory rights under mandatory consumer-protection law. The Service is provided free of charge to consumers; consequently, the EU Directive on Consumer Rights (2011/83/EU) right of withdrawal does not apply.

    EU consumers may use the European Commission's Online Dispute Resolution platform at ec.europa.eu/consumers/odr.


    22. GOVERNING LAW AND DISPUTES


    These Terms and your use of the Service are governed by the laws of New South Wales, Australia and the Commonwealth laws of Australia that apply there, without regard to conflict-of-law rules. The courts of New South Wales and the Federal Court of Australia have non-exclusive jurisdiction over any dispute arising under these Terms.

    Mandatory local law: If you are a consumer, mandatory consumer-protection laws of your country of habitual residence continue to apply and are not displaced by this clause.

    Informal resolution: Before commencing any formal dispute, please first contact us at [email protected]. We will attempt to resolve the dispute informally within 30 days.


    23. MISCELLANEOUS


    23.1 Entire agreement

    These Terms, together with the Privacy Policy and Acceptable Use Policy, constitute the entire agreement between you and Goyova regarding the Service.

    23.2 Severability

    If any provision is held invalid, illegal, or unenforceable, the remaining provisions continue in full force, and the invalid provision will be modified to the minimum extent necessary to make it enforceable while preserving its intent.

    23.3 No waiver

    Our failure to enforce any right or provision is not a waiver of that right or provision.

    23.4 Assignment

    You may not assign these Terms without our prior written consent. Goyova may assign these Terms in connection with a merger, acquisition, financing, or sale of assets, on notice to you.

    23.5 No third-party beneficiaries

    Except for Apple Inc. as expressly stated in Section 5.1, no person who is not a party to these Terms has any right under these Terms.

    23.6 Survival

    Sections 7, 8, 13, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 22, and this Section 23 survive termination of these Terms.

    23.7 Electronic communications and signatures

    You consent to receive communications from us electronically. Agreements, notices, and other records may be provided electronically and will satisfy any legal requirement that they be in writing.

    23.8 Headings

    Section headings are for convenience only and do not affect interpretation.


    24. CHANGES TO THESE TERMS


    We may update these Terms. We will notify you of material changes by in-app notice. Continued use of the Service after the effective date of an updated version constitutes acceptance.
