Terms of Service
Last Updated: September 28, 2026
1. Acceptance of Terms
Welcome to Nova DSO Tracker! By creating an account and using the nova-tracker.com website and the app.nova-tracker.com application (together, “the Service”), you agree to the following terms. If you do not agree with them, please do not use the Service. How your data is handled is described in the Privacy Policy.
2. Description of the Service
Nova DSO Tracker is an open-source tool that helps amateur astronomers and astrophotographers plan their imaging sessions. The Service is a personal project that I provide to the community.
Nova is under active development, so features may change and occasional errors or interruptions may occur. The Service is provided on an “as is” and “as available” basis.
3. User Accounts
To use the core features of the app, you need to register for an account. You are responsible for:
- Providing accurate information during registration.
- Keeping your password secure and confidential.
- All activities that occur under your account.
4. Acceptable Use
You agree not to use the Service to:
- Engage in any illegal or fraudulent activities.
- Attempt to disrupt, overload, or compromise the security or integrity of the servers.
- Upload or share any content that is malicious or violates the rights of others.
5. Termination
You can stop using the Service at any time. You can also delete your account yourself under My Account → Privacy & data. This permanently removes your account and all your data, and it can’t be undone.
I reserve the right to suspend or terminate your account at my discretion, without prior notice, if you violate these terms.
6. Disclaimer of Warranties
The Service is provided without any warranties, express or implied. I make no warranty that the Service will be uninterrupted, secure or error-free, or that your data will be safe from loss. You use the Service at your own risk.
7. Limitation of Liability
As the provider of this Service, in no event shall I be liable for any direct, indirect, incidental, or consequential damages (including, but not limited to, loss of data, loss of profits, or business interruption) arising out of the use of or inability to use the Service.
8. Changes to These Terms
I may update these Terms of Service from time to time. The “Last Updated” date at the top of this page shows the latest revision. By continuing to use the Service after a change, you accept the updated terms.
