These Terms of Service ("Terms") constitute a legally binding agreement between you ("User," "you," or "your") and Rock Bottom Intel LLC ("Company," "we," "us," or "our") governing your use of the Rock Bottom Intel mobile application and any related services (collectively, the "Service"). By downloading, installing, accessing, or using the Service, you acknowledge that you have read, understood, and agree to be bound by these Terms and our Privacy Policy, which is incorporated herein by reference.
If you are using the Service on behalf of an organization, you represent and warrant that you have the authority to bind that organization to these Terms.
Rock Bottom Intel is a fishing condition intelligence application that aggregates publicly available data from government agencies, including but not limited to the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS), the National Weather Service (NWS), the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), state divisions of water resources, and state parks and wildlife agencies. The Service provides:
The Service is an informational tool only. It is not a substitute for independent verification, professional advice, or your own judgment and experience.
The Service displays data sourced from third-party government agencies and public sources. We do not independently verify the accuracy, completeness, timeliness, or reliability of this data. Specifically:
You acknowledge and agree that you rely on any data displayed in the Service entirely at your own risk. The Company makes no representation or warranty, express or implied, regarding the accuracy, reliability, or completeness of any data, score, recommendation, or information provided through the Service.
The Service may display summaries of fishing regulations, including but not limited to bag limits, slot limits, gear restrictions, seasonal closures, special management designations, and license requirements. This information:
It is your sole responsibility to verify all fishing regulations with the appropriate state wildlife agency before fishing. You must carry a valid fishing license and comply with all applicable local, state, and federal laws and regulations. The Company is not liable for any fines, citations, penalties, license revocations, criminal charges, or other consequences resulting from your reliance on regulation information displayed in the App.
The Service may provide information about road conditions, access routes, driving directions, and access point locations for fishing destinations. This information:
The Company is not liable for any vehicle damage, personal injury, stranding, rescue costs, towing expenses, traffic violations, or any other harm arising from your reliance on road condition information or access directions provided in the App. You are solely responsible for verifying road conditions and assessing whether your vehicle and driving skills are appropriate for any route.
The Service may display information regarding public access points, property boundaries, wading rights, easements, and fishing access. This information:
The Company is not liable for any trespassing charges, civil claims, criminal penalties, confrontations with property owners, or any other consequences arising from your reliance on property boundary or access information displayed in the App. You must obey all posted signs, respect private property, and verify access rights independently before entering any area. When in doubt, do not proceed.
By using the Service, you acknowledge and accept that outdoor recreation activities, including but not limited to fishing, wading, hiking to access points, and traveling on rural roads, involve inherent and significant risks, including but not limited to:
YOU VOLUNTARILY ASSUME ALL RISKS associated with your outdoor activities. The Service does not provide safety guidance and is not a substitute for proper outdoor safety training, equipment, judgment, or experience. The Company is not liable for any injury, illness, death, property damage, or other loss arising from or related to your outdoor activities, regardless of whether you used information from the App in planning or conducting those activities.
Fishing condition scores, fly pattern recommendations, hatch predictions, pressure estimates, and all other predictive or advisory features in the App are algorithmically generated estimates based on statistical models and historical data. They are not guarantees or predictions of actual fishing conditions or outcomes. Fish behavior is influenced by countless variables that cannot be fully modeled or predicted. The Company makes no representation that the use of the Service will result in catching fish or in any particular fishing outcome.

You and the Company agree that any dispute, claim, or controversy arising out of or relating to these Terms or the Service (collectively, "Disputes") shall be resolved through binding individual arbitration rather than in court, except that either party may bring individual claims in small claims court if they qualify.
Arbitration shall be conducted by the American Arbitration Association ("AAA") under its Consumer Arbitration Rules then in effect. The arbitration shall take place in Denver, Colorado, or, at your election, may be conducted by telephone or video conference.

When we make material changes, we will update the "Last updated" date at the top of this page and may provide additional notice through the App. Your continued use of the Service after any modification constitutes your acceptance of the revised Terms.
