Terms of Service
Last updated
Welcome to SeaLagom. By accessing or using this website, you agree to be bound by these Terms of Service. Please read them carefully.
SeaLagom is operated by an individual, not a company or business entity. This site aggregates and redistributes publicly available maritime safety information. At the time of display, the sources used did not have any restrictions on the use of such information. Most of the information provided is based on my professional experience as a licensed navigator with relevant competency. If you have any questions about these Terms, please contact me at contact@sealagom.com.
SeaLagom carries no advertising networks, no tracking ads and no affiliate links. Clearly labelled sponsored mentions and partner placements may appear on some pages and on map or sky layers. Every such item is marked "Sponsored", carries rel="sponsored" when it links out, never changes the warnings or the data, and can be removed by SeaLagom at any time (section 3). Content may be edited or removed upon a legitimate request.
Search engines, AI systems, agents and companies that build on our data also follow the terms for AI systems, agents and companies: reading with credit, what is free for people, the licence for companies, the agent checkout and MCP.
1. Content
This website functions as both an aggregator of publicly available maritime safety information and a platform for sharing professional knowledge and experience. Important points about the content displayed:
- Maritime information is collected from public sources, and at the time of display, the source did not restrict any use of the information
- Content based on my professional experience as a licensed navigator
- Content may contain errors or inaccuracies despite best efforts to ensure accuracy
- This site is not an official source of maritime information
- Information provided should not replace official navigation sources or professional advice
- Any content will be promptly removed or exhibited upon legitimate request from rights holders or users
2. Cookies and Data Collection
This website uses cookies and collects certain data to improve user experience:
- Cookies are used to enhance functionality and provide a better browsing experience
- Anonymous usage data may be collected for analytics purposes. Analytics information is only used to improve user experience and to better understand user needs.
- Your use of this site constitutes consent to these practices
- You can manage cookie preferences through your browser settings
3. Sponsored Mentions and Partner Placements
This website works with no advertising networks, shows no tracking ads and carries no affiliate links. Clearly labelled sponsored mentions and partner placements may appear at the end of some guides, on the sky view and on the map. A company proposes one with the link at the end of a guide, or by writing to [email protected]. These terms apply to every sponsored item, and the person who requests one accepts them:
- It is marked "Sponsored" (in the language of the page on the guides; "Placed by" with the company's name and "Sponsored" on the sky view and the map) and its link carries rel="sponsored".
- It is one factual sentence, or the one paragraph that was bought, with one link. A satellite shows as a labelled mark on its real orbit in the sky view; a coverage area shows as a labelled mark in the map's placements layer, which visitors switch on.
- It makes no claim of GMDSS or safety compliance, type approval, an official status or an endorsement by SeaLagom or anyone else, and it never changes the warnings or the data.
- The exact text is checked before it is published: by our automatic checks, and by our team whenever the checks question anything or automatic publication is switched off. Nothing is published without passing these checks, and our team keeps editorial control.
- It is prepaid in full, by card or in crypto. If the text is declined after the payment, the payment is returned in full.
- It is shown for 12 months. A renewal is offered before the end at the same terms plus 10%; nothing renews by itself.
- SeaLagom can remove it at any time. If a claim in it proves false, it is removed without a refund. If SeaLagom removes it for any other reason, the part of the payment for the unused days is returned.
- Every offer is confirmed in writing and stays valid for 72 hours.
4. Affiliate Links
This website contains no affiliate links and earns no commission from any product or service it mentions. A partner placement is a labelled placement, not an affiliate link.
