It’s pretty simple. If you want to make use of the service that we have spent so long crafting then you must agree to respecting Pebbls and abiding by these terms. There isn’t anything underhand or sneaky in here but if you don’t agree with any of the details below please do not continue using our services, app, and website – perhaps find another super cool travel blogging platform (good luck with that 😉).
We are not going to be harvesting your data or passing on your contact details – we promise. The data that you provide will be used for the sole purpose of offering you the best possible experience while using Pebbls.
In the text below we’ll be using some wording such as “you” and “your” – this means we are talking about you, the person who will be using Pebbls. When we refer to “we”, “our” and “us”, this is referring to the creators of the Pebbls platform. We also use the terms “post”, “posts”, and “content” – this refers to anything that you, or another user, may add to Pebbls including location data, photos, videos, and text.
We are based on the beautiful little island of Guernsey and as such any disputes of these terms and conditions will be contested under Guernsey law. Our data is stored within secure data centres in the UK.
When using our website (including viewing journey maps) we make use of cookies. The cookies that we use are there to store your user access token and personal preferences (such as whether you prefer to use kilometers or miles). We also use third-party cookies from CloudFlare, Google Analytics, and New Relic to analyze information about how and when different parts of our site are accessed. This isn’t unusual, almost every website that you visit makes use of cookies. If you disable cookies in your browser then you will not be able to experience all of the wonderful features that we have created for you. Trust us, when used correctly (like we use them), cookies are there to make your experience better.
The whole purpose of Pebbls is to track and share your journeys, which means we need to know where you are and where you’ve been. By using our app, you’re telling us it’s ok to collect and use your location data to create your Pebbls map.
If you are on a trip with your friends or family members, make sure they’re okay with you collecting and sharing their location data too. We don’t want anyone’s privacy invaded, so please be respectful and get their permission first.
If you decide to turn off location services for Pebbls in your device settings, the app won’t work as intended. So, to get the full Pebbls experience, keep your device location services turned on.
Pebbls is a project of passion. Like geeky, adventurous artisans we have spent considerable time carefully sculpting and re-sulpting every beautiful line of code of Pebbls. This means that we, and those third parties whose code we have incorporated into Pebbls (such as Leaflet JS for the map viewer), own the intellectual property of all materials on Pebbls. Any content uploaded to Pebbls, such as text, photos and videos, remain the ownership of its original creator. Any content uploaded by you must be your own work and not be in breach of any copyright infringement – this includes any soundtracks or audio that you may use within your videos – you can find plenty of royalty free soundtrack resources by using your favourite search engine.
Please do not:
