Terms of use
Last updated:
By using this site you accept these terms. “We” and “the operator” mean the operator of this site; you can reach them through the contact page.
What this service is
Paddle Launch is an independent directory of mapped launch and access points for canoes, kayaks and paddleboards in Great Britain. It is informational. It has no connection with the owners, managers or operators of the launch points, car parks, toilets or waters shown.
No statement about rights, safety or conditions
A launch point is shown because it is mapped as one. We make no statement that you may launch there, cross land to reach it, park, use any facility or navigate the water, and none about safety, tides, river levels, water quality, weather, difficulty or suitability for any skill level. Check local access rules, signs and conditions before you go, and use your own judgement on site.
No guarantee of accuracy or completeness
The details come from open map data, as described in the privacy policy. They can be out of date, incomplete or wrong, and some details are missing. The directory does not contain every launch point. The service is provided “as is” and “as available”.
Third-party data and images
Names and trademarks belong to their owners. Where the information comes from, and under which licences, is explained in the privacy policy. Images on the site are illustrative photos and do not show the launch point named.
Acceptable use
- Do not break the law, attack or overload the site, or probe it for weaknesses.
- Do not scrape the site at a rate that harms it.
- Do not send abusive content or other people’s personal information.
Changes to the service
We may change or stop any part of the service, and restrict access if these terms are broken or to protect the site or other people.
Liability
To the extent the law allows, the operator is not liable for losses that come from relying on the information here, for example because of a closed or unsuitable launch point, a different facility, travel costs, injury or damage on or near the water, or from the site being unavailable. Liability that cannot be excluded by law, including for death or personal injury caused by negligence and for fraud, is not affected.
Changes to these terms
We may update these terms. The date at the top shows when they were last updated. If you keep using the site after a change, the updated terms apply.
