Terms and Conditions

The Legal Stuff in Plain English

We do our best – we make no compromises on system security and have a goal of maintaining 100% system availability at all times but… things may occasionally break so please factor in possible inconveniences due to system outage.

We give no warranties as to MapDeck’s merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose and non-infringement of third party rights. Your use of MapDeck is at your own risk.

Our maximum liability to you will be limited to the value of the balance of your current, unexpired subscriptions.

Upon your acceptance of this Agreement, and after creating a user account, you may access, download, view, copy, and print content available on MapDeck site, to which you have authorised access to, for your personal use, in private as well as professional capacity.

However, if you obtained that content in the course of your employment with a particular organisation (as indicated by your user login details) you are authorised to distribute printed and electronic copies of that commercial MapDeck content within that specific organisation, for an internal use only.
